The game I'm thinking of was an old platformer where you could choose between 3 different robot characters that had their own unique models. I believe they could transform. Some of them could hook upwards. It was pretty dark. I'll try to remember other details if anyone can help.

This was a Starfox-like MMO, had a pretty decent goon presence a few years back. It had a few name changes but one of them had Air-something as one of the titles. Anyone remember this?

Metal Warriors?

Finally get to answer one - this is definitely "Metal Mutants"

I played the hell out of that game when I was a kid, but could never finish it (didn't help that the text was in French though)

Ace Online had 3 types of plane and a tank you could play as, with Starfox-esque combat.

What was the NES game where you were a bunch of bald goofy looking martial arts dudes (it was 2 player) with a kind of 3/4 angle view, and you had to kill enemies until the door opened at the top of the screen?

I'm trying to remember the name of a point-and-click adventure game, I assume from the early/mid 90s. It's sci-fi, no humor in it that I can remember, and starts on a spaceship or space station that was really dark, possibly with green or orange computer bits. I think one of the early things you do is go around looking for some discs?

The only other thing I remember about the game is that it was on CD (possibly two discs), and it would not work at all if your CD-ROM drive was mapped to something other than D.

There's a couple of PC games I've been trying to find for ages. Both of them should be from the mid 90's. They were both kind of lovely, but I would love to see them again out of nostalgia. Unfortunately, my memories of them are super vague:

1. You played some kind of future cop. You flew (or maybe drove?) around a city chasing down criminals The game was in full 3D.
2. This was also in full 3D. You were fighting off an alien invasion in the desert. The different levels were progressively more difficult waves of aliens. You periodically got different ways of fighting i.e. one level you're stuck in a turret, but another level you get a free moving vehicle of some kind. I remember some of the enemies were independence day style UFOs. I think the UFOs had a lot of purple in their color scheme?

1. Robocop 3D? That was based off Robocop 3 largely so he had the jetpack and did fly around the city in some levels.

I looked it up and this is way earlier than what I'm thinking; it was from the era of hardware acceleration.

Also, I LOVED Robocop as a kid. I'd definitely remember if it was a robocop game.


Yes! Thank you!

Were you a dude or a vehicle? If it's a vehicle I'm thinking G-Police. If it was a dude maybe Urban Chaos.

e: Well, those games are much older than what you're thinking of.

I have to ask about another game with very little details, sorry. I played this game when I was very young so I remember it very vaguely.

It's an action adventure game from the late 80s early 90s. I think the graphics were pretty good for it's time, but I can't remember correctly. It had a point and click interface and you had to have fairly quick reactions to get through the game, lots of dying, but games of that era were full of that. It was from a first person point of view and you possibly had to shoot people? It had a sort of Indiana Jones vibe with Nazis in it I believe. One of the levels had you start on a pier and you had to navigate around, it might have been the start of the game. I believe you also had to hijack and tank and blow up a warehouse.

Again, sorry for being so vague, I was really young when I played this game.

Heart of China? Seems like you would remember the Chinese theme, but it is a very pulpy first person adventure game where you hijack a tank at one point.

If not that, Dynamix made another similar game called Rise of the Dragon.

There was this side scrolling platformer in the 90's called something like 'cosmic space kid' (Although google doesn't come up with anything for that) and as I remember it the colour pallete was mostly red and yellow. That might just be my memory playing tricks on me. It had a really cool soundtrack. I can't really recall anything more than that about it... any ideas?

I have been trying to find this game for like a decade. All I remember is playing it with a friend on a commodore, and you were an astronaut or looked like one and I think opera was in the title? I remember thinking the music was cool.

Otherwise it was a side scroller or platform game, and you moved sort of like the knights in joust.

Most likely Linus Spacehead's Cosmic Crusade aka Cosmic Spacehead (which probably is the title you remember).

I played something several years ago that had a character that I'm pretty sure was named Abalone. I feel like this guy was a sort of wrestler-type character, but a swimmer as well (?) or something like that, and he kept calling you, the player, shrimp. It was a whole nautical theme and you had to best him in a pool or something like that. In my mind, he kind of looked like one of those M.U.S.C.L.E. guys. The whole thing was supposed to be humorous and weird.

My brain wants this to have been a Shadow Hearts game (thinking of the "man festival" thing) or something like Psychonauts or a Phoenix Wright game or something with a similar weird sense of humor like that. I'm totally drawing a blank and googling has failed me, but I'm 99% sure that Abalone was in the guy's name.

Does this ring a bell for anyone?
