Why do you care?

Because... Why not? I could ask the same from you. In any case, you could use your superb googling skillz and try to find that game Dazz is looking for :D

Superb googling skillz?? Just copy and paste the post and put "That game where" before you paste it onto the google search bar


RE: The "what the hell was that game again" thread for forgetful people. - Mass Distraction - 10-30-2013

By that logic the game is either Loren: The Amazon Princess, Forgotten Realms, Lands of Lore: The Throne of Chaos, Dragon's Crown or Skyrim. Any of those, Dazz? I'm certain I can scratch out Dragon's Crown and Skyrim, the rest I'm not familiar with.

Btw. My point kinda is, without these kind of threads, the google results would not exist in the first place.

That would be the point for some thing like "Evil town tortures bad/misunderstand people" or "Thef racoon steals back pages from bad guys" but I think you would find it harder finding "Guy with furry partner trying to save the world from a magic guy." Am I talking about Final Fantasy or Jak and Daxter?

I legit googled that game with the guy with furry parther trying to save the world from a magic guy my first result was "Jak 2 Cheats" they have a app on the app store where you can do this with music and movies and games and it works really well.

Not really. It's hard to Google "That one movie, where there was a dude that was black, but I think that he also fought like. Demons? I think? Or was he a half demon?"

Especially if the false memory is leading to inaccurate description. Googling "black guy who fights demons" wouldn't ge you Blade, because Blade is a half vampire.

i googled black guy who fights demons who at page 26 you get a link to blade. I googled black guy who hunts demons superhero page 1. Black guy who hunts demons page 19

You seriously went 26 pages to find that? You have far more patience than I.

I doubt Dazz's game is Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's World Championship 2011: Over the Nexus, Skyrim, or Resident Evil (all three are what I got searching for the game he described).

You play as a blonde haired Amazoness kind of character, and an orc... I remember the orc had a shield. There was a picture from it that my brother had painted on his wall where the orc is in front, holding his shield up, and the Amazoness woman was behind him. I think it was on the box... See, in those those, all of games came in actual cardboard boxes... It was a PC game, and was pretty obscure. It was a sort of isometric viewpoint, and I think the setting I remember the most was on a cliff face...

I've been looking for it for days, had no luck. I'm pretty sure nobody here will have a clue, because it was before all of your times. It might have been after 95, since I recall booting it from a floppy easily...

Out of the 20 pages, Dragons Crown came up a couple of times but i am still looking.

I played this one game where your a soccer player who shoots balls. Whenever you get hit, you change color allowing you to shoot more balls and finally when you turn purple and get hit by that, you lose a life.

The game is centered around a carnival park. Its a very old game that was in the NES era.


RE: The "what the hell was that game again" thread for forgetful people. - Dazz - 11-07-2013

I know it isn't, but that just reminded me of Soccer Kid on the SNES and Amiga. That was a damn fine game.


RE: The "what the hell was that game again" thread for forgetful people. - gamemaster1991 - 01-17-2014

I need help remembering this game.

I can remember what system it was on but I think it was NES or SNES. The game took place in the wild west and I think you were the sheriff hunting down bandits. You could take a train to go to other towns. There are caves in the over world map and these would send you to a dungean crawler.

That's all I remember, but it may not be 100% acurate since the last time I saw it was about 17 years ago when I was real little..

Gun smoke? There are two different types of the game i believe the other goes under a different title but its no different


RE: The "what the hell was that game again" thread for forgetful people. - gamemaster1991 - 01-17-2014

I found it. It was The Loan Ranger for NES. I looked up Gun.Smoke to see what it was and one of the links sent me there. This was a game that my uncle when I use to visit him (he was really bad at it and I never saw much of the game). It's been bugging me for awhile to know what it was.

Thanks for trying to help. Even though it was not the game I was looking for, I'm thinking of picking up Gun.Smoke if I can find it, along with The Loan Ranger.
