Can't remember the name of that game from your past?

Found it. Its called SabreWing 2
And you were spot on with what they said"You see that? That was ME!" See this video at 24 seconds into the video

Its a properly obscure game, no wikipedia page, no mobygames page, only thing i can find beside youtube videos is an ign article
A thousand thanks from me. This game was legendary between my brother and I around 2002/3. I would wake up early in the morning only to find my brother still playing this demo and listening to Piano Black and other proper music from the Cowboy Bebop OSTs on repeat. Seriously thank you.
 
I remember playing a rally racing game on my old laptop ages ago.
It was basically kinda like Motorstorm, and all I remember from it was a black off-road Volkswagen Beetle (I think?) And a jungle track with a muddy road.
Does anybody know what this game is?
 
I recall playing a browser game (that took place in prehistory) where you had to break bad eggs while avoiding to break good eggs, it had several sequels
 
The other game I was thinking of was Dark Orbit another Wild Tangent game.

There are two games I'm sure I didn't make up, both arcade games and both should technically not exist.

Game 1:
One was a Giana Sisters style game where you played as a blue and red girl, they weren't chibi like the Giana Sisters designs but more realistic looking. I remember seeing it in the mid 90's at a big arcade when I was on my way with my grandpa to a new PC game from a store there (Arcade America I believe). So this was around 1996ish.
Being a huge Giana Sisters fan as a kid, it struck me as very odd to see an arcade version with 16bit visuals that was so similar to Giana Sisters/Mario. I know that the demo had both sisters playing co op, it had the amber pipes and everything. The level in the demo was sunset colored.

Game 2:
I was 7 or so and we went on vacation in this lake town here in Macedonia, Doiran. There was an arcade nearby (Macedonia had arcades in the 80's and 90's at every corner and I was living in heaven back then) and one of the games was something that, again, shouldn't exist.
It was Altered Beast but with "chibi" characters and background similar to that of Contra Arcade.
The Arcade would freeze up all the time and I remember the grandma who was selling coins there told me not to play it but I just had to try it out, sure enough it froze up half way through the first level.

I'd say it was the Famicom altered beast in an arcade cabinet, but no, this had 16bit graphics, shading and everything. It's just everything was smaller, chibi designs even. I knew Altered Beast hence what drew me to the game in the first place and this was a lot like it, right down to the bigs or whatever you kill for powerups, but it was visually different.
 
I didn't post any information on the game I was looking for, but I just wanted to say that I found the game that has been in the back of my memories since I was little and might possibly be the first video game I ever played.

I found this thread and having already attempted to look up the game in the past, I gave it another shot at looking. All I remembered was that it was a multiplayer shooter for the N64 with sci-fi elements in it and after 30 minutes of googling I found it.

I would sometimes get vague memories of this game and wondered if I made it up. I'm glad I got to see some gameplay of this game and find that it's actually real.

 
OK PEOPLE THIS IS IMPORTANT
I can't seem to recall an old ass game I used to play on my PC, it was one of those early games from the 2000s that you could play on those game websites, and it's basically a space station game where you have to find your way through the milky way, battling other enemy stations between humans and two other races of aliens, one really biological and one really technological. The game had different ships that your stations can send like drones, bombers, cruisers (light and heavy) and battleships to send so that you can fight the enemy ships and then destroy the enemy space station. I don't know how to properly describe the genre of the game, I hope that this information of mine can properly help...

When you say "those game websites", you mean like a flash game website?

Guys
I FOUND IT
It's Spacecraft, the game made by Kongregate!
 
Hi all, when I was a child (over thirty years ago), I played a handheld which is only for a specific game. I don't know if this handheld is famous or not or traded outside of my local area.

This game is a maze-like. I controlled the character which is astronaut-like. After killing a monster, find an exit to left. Under my impression, in order to kill the monster, I have to find two boxes. If I face the monster without boxes, gameover, so better to avoid before finding the boxes. The monster will not stick an area and may move over time. If I find the two boxes and face the monster, my impression is keeping pushing buttons to kill the monster.

The screen has a direction cursor (up is moving forward; left is turning left; right is turning right; down I forgot, maybe moving backward). There are black dox sometimes on the direction cursor which mean there are boxes or a monster nearby. If black dox disappear, it must be monster moving a bit far way.

It was a very fun and memorable game, but I wonder it is known. That handheld was bought/given by my father.

Thanks for your time for reading.

I remember when I was kid, I had a psx cd, with three fighting games: Soul blade, bloody roar 2 and another one which is the game a cant remember. It was a fighting game where the characaters can fly on an environment 3D. That's all I remember. I hope you can help me with it. I have been trying to remember what was its name for several years now.

I'll be going through the posts on this thread, maybe I can help someone here.

@Judier mentioned a spacecraft game, I thought that was an RPG (?) series that I found the other day, but apparently it isn't... glad they found the answer.

Where are you from? I know there were some unique handheld games from Russia, though I'm not an expert on the topic.

Would it be Psychic Force by any chance?

Wow!!! That's it!!! Thanks!!!

No prob. I had no clue about this game but I got the answer in like 5 minutes after searching keywords.

Does anybody know this browser MMORPG that used RPG Maker XP sprites?
It was like an indie project and was in English. I played it around 2007. I remember I had an archer character that had green hair, pale skin and she wore clothing with green details as well. The picture they used showed her full body. She was an elf.
You could choose other classes/characters, but I can't recall any details about them.
There may have been a lava dungeon.
I don't remember anything else about it... it was somewhat obscure. There were hundreds of players but most people didn't know about its existence. I probably discovered it through an ad on a website...

EDIT: I think I managed to find a sprite of the character in question. It's definitely one of the default assets from the program.

Yeah the game from my childhood is this one, i'll link it up for you
Such a good game, I literally played through it in like 2 games, it's been a blast with the campaigns and so forth.
 
Uhhhh ok so there’s this fat Italian plumber who has to save a princess from an evil lizard/turtle something something.
 
Hello all! I am searching for a games that seems easy to find but isn't so much:
First, the game is purely an Asteroid Clone from 1995 to 2002 so I must have played it on Windows 98 or windows 2000 I would say, I think I lost the game because It was maybe not compatible with Winxp/win7. you have a ship and destroy a lot asteroids via fire, I can't remember if there was special weapons or not. The thing I remember, it had amazing blowing visual effects and was very speedy like Jeff Minter would do like in Tempest 2000/4000. It was quite light in hd space, not more than 200MB. The music was really good, many blowing colors!!
I searched on youtube but despite watching around 200 clones, couldn't find it! It was fun to play!
It's not blasteroid, superstardust, asterax, not mutant storm (but alike).
 
I remembered once seeing and hearing about a really advanced nes game that was late in the console's life cycle and developed by ex-mega man developers. tried finding it again some time after and got no luck.
 
I have one that's bugged me for years. Way back from the 1980s before the NES, during the dark times after the video game crash, only places where I lived you'd see any games were arcade machines inside Chucky Cheese's. This one is one of those laser disk type games.
A sit down cabniet, live action FMV game where you drive. I think you play as a cop and you chase criminals, as I remember one red trans am, trying get away from me. Its live action video, not animated; its not Road Avenger.

I remember COPS had a sit-down cabinet with an FMV car chase, but that would have been the 90's.

Was it actually released? Might have had a mythology based name? Very detailed backgrounds? I'm so helpful. 😓

Wait... Was it Little Samson?
