I'm trying to remember the name of this MMO, which was just plain surreal when I played it. It seemed like the entire game engine was based on Zelda: LttP's game engine, right up to the sprites all looking like Link. It was old, too. I remember playing it around 2004-ish and even then the community was more or less dead.

quiggy posted:The second game was, if I recall correctly, originally released on the C64. I know that there was an unofficial remake of the game that ran on Windows that I played probably 4-5 years ago. You played as a wizard in a battle against other wizards, where you summoned monsters and cast spells on a rectangular grid. It was essentially a wizard-based turn-based tactics game. Could this be Lords of Chaos? One of my favourite games  Edit: on second thought it might be Chaos, that has a few remakes by now.

Sounds exactly like Virtua Cop 2 apart from that the opening robbery scene was at a jewelers, not a bank.

Here's the a video of the level I was talking about, it's the Playstation version though. Those magnum rounds were so satisfying.  You can also see the transition into the next scene that I was talking about about a minute into this. There are also a bunch of goofy looking hostages prancing about!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sF5kxpNrvoE#t=0m55s

Can anyone help me with this one, it was a game I played at school in the mid 90's. It was a platform puzzle game of sorts, set in space, or a space station. I seem to remember that the main character was a little guy with springs for legs (or just bendy legs) I remember one of the early levels (possibly the first level) you started outside the ship, and you had to make your way inside through an airlock, progress from there. I seem to remember you couldn't jump, or at least not very high, but you could walk up walls, and ceilings, and then drop down. I have no clue what the name of the game was, so does anyone have a clue ? It's not Exile before anyone mentions that.

I'm thinking of a short horror interactive fiction game. It takes place at an abandoned motel, and at the end you come across a zombie thing that makes insect-like buzzing noises. I thought it was called Cellar Door, but when I search for "cellar door interactive fiction" all I can find is an IF interpreter with that name. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

It's probably short (as competition entries tend to be), and its description on IF Archive indicates that it's horror. I also found a very brief (1 paragraph) review that mentioned a motel. So there's a fairly good chance that it's what you're looking for.

I'm thinking of a game where you would be in some kind of zombie infested town and would have to type letters to kill them. There were bosses that had sentences and poo poo you had to type. Played this game years and years ago, so I can't remember the name.

Sorry if this has game been covered in this thread or elsewhere, I don't have search. About 8 years ago I played a very stupid RTS game at a friend's house. The premise was, basically, that instead of gathering resources like money or crystals or whatever, you had an entirely sheep based economy. You had factories that were powered by sheep on treadmills, tanks driven by sheep, cannons that launched sheep, etc. Black sheep produced twice as much energy. Much of the game consisted of stealing your opponent's sheep while defending your own. Note: I also played a similar game from the around same time where you were a dog who had to guide sheep through a maze. I'm not looking for this game. Thanks in advance. EDIT: This was a PC game.

There was an RPG a while back, or may be recent, that had a boss that just said "Buh Buh buh buh buh buh buh" over and over. I think it may have been one of the Paper Marios, but can someone please help me out on this?

There's this old rear end point and click adventure game I cant think of the name of. There are only like two scenes i can remember. In one, you try to use a stick as a lever to lift a boulder but it breaks. In another, you sow dragon teeth(maybe?) which grow into soldiers. You then throw a rock into the group of soldiers, causing them to fight each other(this part comes from mythology). What the hell game is this.

I'm looking for a late 90's PS1 game that I used to play. It was a fighting game of some sort, but not in the vein of Tekken or Street Fighter. It had a top-down view. It was multiplayer, but I don't think it had split screen. I don't remember much about the characters, except that one was a dinosaur that could bite the opposing players, and could lay eggs which would spawn mini dinosaurs to aid the player. There were four stages, one of which was sandy/desert. This game was on a demo disk which also had some sort of music creation game on it.

This *might* be Vengeance of Excalibur which has you sow dragon's teeth to make a skeleton army at one point, but its more of an RPG so I'm not certain.

A post I made a couple of years ago in this very thread about a PC game, but never got a satisfactory answer:Project1 posted:This is a game I played a demo of, so I can't say with certainty that it was ever released. Also, a couple of C64 games from my childhood. One was a text adventure which I believe had static location pictures. At the start, you find yourself strapped to a conveyor belt which is whisking you to your doom. To escape that, you had to tell it to snap the cable tying you down. It would first tell you that you couldn't possibly be strong enough to do that, but if you try again it works. The secret twist was that unbeknownst to you, you're actually a cyborg/android or something, who thinks it's human, or it was human or something. The other was some sort of first person adventure game. It was in German, but it might have just been a German version, not the original language. All I remember is a message appearing on screen which I was told said something like "Come here, pussycat!", and then this naked woman shows off her body to the player. It definitely wasn't a porn/sex game, though, just that one bit. If you tried to do anything with her besides look or use the camera, she'd hit you and throw you out of the room. Amusing stuff to pre-teen kids, apparently. EDIT: Just remembered another scene from the last game: being in a kitchen, and while this old woman had her back turned and was cooking, you could click in the fridge or maybe it was the cupboard, to steal food and restore your health. If you got too greedy, she'd realise what you were doing, hit you, and throw you out. I guess healing was necessary considering everyone seems to beat you up.

I'm looking for a very old PC game. It was sort of similar to a roguelike (I think) and I think the title might have included the word Mana. Anyway, you'd explore dungeons that were randomly generated and if you died it showed the phrase 'Another one bites the dust!' I have really good memories of this game, but I can't think of anyway else to describe it.

Sorry for a necromance, but does anyone remember an RPG where, about halfway through, your characters find a large mural in a dungeon or something that it supposed to tell the end of the world, or the past, or something? I think it was PS1 or PS2 era. I know Tales of Vesperia had one, but I don't think that's the one I am remembering. If I remember right, it was in sorta a yellowish brown room, and as you were going deeper into the dungeon, the mural was on your left side.
