Games you remember, names you don't

There was a game for original NES where you could play I believe three separate sports. I know one was surfing. I think another was skateboarding? And I don't remember the third.

It was side scrolling, and I think the main character guy had a mohawk? And that's about all I know, other than I loved it when I was 8.

I have no idea what the title of it is, but would be able to tell from the cover art. Do magic GAF!
 
I remember a PC game on Windows, which I think came out early 00's, maybe late 90's... It was a first person shooter type of game, but with (fallen) angels and demons. I think you started in hell and after hell the next level was some kind of city I believe. I'm not sure, but the player character was an angel, or some kind of fallen angel (since you start in hell) and you had magic angels powers. I can't remember a whole lot of it, but it's one of the few games I played of which I just can't remember its name.

Alright, I would like to find the name to these 3 kids games. I could remember them a while back but now I completely draw a blank.

1st
This one had that frog that looks from Hello Kitty and you had to crop vegetables and make dishes like soup. There was also some other games on the disc including one where you make animations with Felix the Cat

2nd: This one is really vague, but I am sure it's an educational game. Once you did all the little tasks you went to a tower in the middle of the map and had to answer a whole bunch of questions concerning the human body.


3rd: This one is that you visit Japan with this bear, i can't remember the name but I keep thikning of Ozzy... The game had you learn about the culture and the food and the technology like th bullet trains.


These are all on PC and date from the mid 90's I would think.

Thanks GAF !
 
Commondore 64 game. Fantasy setting, wizards, barbarians and stuff. Could play splitscreen also with two screens. One on top and one on bottom. Sidescrolling action. Probably 3 different characters to choose from.
 
^^^Vigilante 8?

Nah, far more colorful and futuristic then that. Forget the Car Combat aspect, I may be mixing that up with something else. Dreamcast game involving driving cars, but with at least one game mode that didn't involve "racing" but was about driving around environments that look like futuristic warehouses or space-ship holds or whatever.

Top-down space bounty hunter game I played once on the Mac around 1999. As you might expect, you flew to different planets and could accept various missions. It may have been a shareware title.
 
man i cannot remember the name of this game:

-mid-90s PC game
-featured pre-rendered background FMVs over which a HUD was displayed and you shot stuff (kind of like microcosm)
-first-person perspective shooter, but you were piloting some kind of air/space craft
-game either took place in San Francisco or at the least the first stage/level/area featured flying low to the ground across a bridge that resembled golden gate
-want to say the word "Raven" was involved but i can't be sure

Hmmm. Was it either of the Cyberia games or Loadstar: The Legend of Tully Bodine?

Just to get it out of the way because it's the most common answer. Was it an Escape Velocity?
 
Last week I visited some friends in Miami, and we went to an arcade there called Game Time.

I was wondering if someone could help me out with one of the machines. Their website doesn't seem to list them.

My favorite game there was light gun style game, but with an actual shooting range behind glass. It was a quick draw game, where you would holster the gun, draw and try to shoot all the targets with as few shots as possible. The fourth and final challenge had you shoot two moving targets before shooting a cup, which shattered once it was hit.

OK so around 1988 there was this game we used to play on the Apple 2e computer at school I'm trying to remember. It was an adventure game and I think it was set in Transylvania and you had to type "Go north" to move or "Look at tree stump" etc to interact with things in the environment. You basically had to find a gun, then find a silverbullet and kill this werewolf that would appear after a while. After you killed it you went to a spot where there was a boat and you sailed off in it. There was a log cabin where you find the gun(or bullet, can't remember) and a castle as well.

Pretty bloody random I know, but maybe someone as old as me has a clue.

EDIT: Fuck I found it, it's called.... "TRANSYLVANIA"..../facepalm

Yep Transylvania, remember it well.

Some game on the ps1 where you're shooting up aliens or something. It kinda had a sidescroller look to it.

I think it was on a Jampack/underground demo disc. Game felt awesome as fuck

Not too sure about it but I think 989 studios did it.
 
PC game.

There was a frozen yogurt factory run by a short guy. He sent me off to find a criminal, but in the end, it turned out that he was the criminal all along. Uh, there was a spaceship (of course) and you had to answer math questions to do certain things, like get into the ship. And your co-pilot told awful jokes.
 
I don't remember if it was PC only but the game was about a guy fighting monsters/demons and stuff inside a mansion followed by a camera team. I think the story was that the whole thing was to be a live tv show. And the camera team didn't get involved, the just followed you.

I did a youtube search with all possible words but didn't find it.
 
I'm trying to track down a game that scared the bejesus out of me when I was a kid. It was a sci-fi PC game, I want to say an adventure game, from the mid-1980s most likely 386/486 era. The one defining image that I can remember is a some sort of android zombie guy that's sitting in a chair or throne. It almost looked like galactus. Anyone know what it's called?

EDIT: Sorry forgot to mention they were IBM/PC.

I am trying to recall a few old educational games I remember playing when I was in the 6th grade, I am 33 now so it was quite a long time ago. The first was a columbus ship sailing find a new world type game where you had to buy food, water etc. before you set sail. If you did not have the correct amounts you would die at sea.

I don't know if this is on the right track, but was it Terra Australis: Voyages of Trade & Discovery?

I played this way back in the day, along with Tycoon Itch (modern era shipping line game for kids) and some game where you search for a Kraken using basic scientific methods of sonar and whatnot. All on the old Acorns/BBC Micro thingamy computers.

This was, of course, after we did the Granny's Garden thing.
 
I'm trying to remember the name of this game:

2D side scrolling where you play as someone and you have to restore the power in the city. Near the start of the demo you had to use a plug socket to travel somewhere in a cable car.

Thats all I can remember of it.
 
There was a racing game for SNES, it was ok. All I remember is when you pass other drivers, text dialogue would appear outside your driver's window with ridiculous comments. Like you're screaming at the other drivers.
 
I'm not looking for a game but instead an article/forum thread (can't remember which) where people were taking video game box art and photoshopping their titles to closer match what the game was like. For example, Mega Man 2 was "Jumping Through Boss Doors 2". I've tried everything and can't find it, but surely someone here remembers it.

Like these? I have to assume there are a bunch out there

For what platform?
 
I remember a low-budget puzzle game for PC set in a jungle enviroment. You were supposed to solve different tasks by placing object on the screen if I remember correctly. The main character was a lion walking on two legs, I think.
