I'm looking for a SNES game...you played as a vampire or kid vampire, (the graphics were styled more cartoon than realistic or "scary")and ran around levels and killed stuff...the viewpoint was top to down, ala SNES Zelda...

CAnnot remember the name but it was tons of fun

Twisted Tales of Spike McFang?

That reminds me of TToSMF, indeed.

Here's a game I read about in an indie gaming blog or some other similar place: it's one of those newfangled freeware space shooters, except you control a swarm of bees (?!). I might be remembering something wrong since I read about it in the middle of end-of-semester crunch time and decided I had no time to play it, gloriously trippy as it sounded. But now I can't find it anymore so hopefully someone recognises it from this small amount of information!

My description is obviously going to be vague seeing as how I don't remember the name of the game and such.

It was for Genesis, it might have been two player.
You fought large jason and the argonaugts -esque skeletons and other statue type brutes. I remember distinctly the words, "Rise from the grave!" And occassionally a faint old wizard man's bust would come up in the center of the screen with a orb in his hands and say something. I think this might be the same game as Iaman is talking about. I feel like the first level some sort of ruins of a village or castle?

EDIT: Nevermind, this game is called Altered Beast.

At the one before the previous post, only things that come to mind are Sunset Riders or Lethal Enforcers 2. It's most likely Sunset Riders as I don't believe Lethal Enforcers 2 was released for SNES.

EDIT: And Lethal Enforcers 2 was a old west themed light gun game. You didn't say what type of game it was.

I'm looking for a game on the Macintosh. The main character was a fox, or at least, a fox looking thing. It was an adventure/RPG, and I only remember bits and pieces of the game. I remember making a mold of something's footprint (pawprint?) and exploring some huge castle maze, I remember having to make a map on paper as I went along as to not get lost.

I had it probably around 1995 - 1998.

Thanks.

Oh, and the guy looking for the cop shooter/driver game. Lucky and Wild.?
Worthya, Wild Guns?

Found mine. Inherit the Earth: Quest for the Orb

Oh, angry black man posted with it right after I found it. Thanks anyway. :P

Most likely Inherit the Earth: Quest for the Orb. One of the most obscure adventures games I've played that actually makes furries cool.

EDIT: It's kind of sad as they tried to make a serious game but the producers said that games with talking animals had to be CHILDS MATERIAL (they probably haven't seen Watership Down,The Plague Dogs or even The Secret of NIHM or read any of the literature the movies were spawned from).

The only games on Genesis with a blue knight that I remember are Rocket Knight and Sparkster.

I loved that game. When you got all of the swords in the stones you became pimp sparkster (in the first one). *sigh* Then there was that robot battle *clash* *swhoop* *crumble* good times..Good times.

I'm looking for a Genesis game.
It was a beat-em-up with robots, and you got to select the different parts and steal them off of your enemies.

By the way, I found what I was looking for, no thanks to you assholes (it was Cyborg Justice).
I used ChaCha and they found it. It was amazing.

YES! I found it! Troddlers! Try it out if you like, it's a fun puzzle game for the SNES. Lemming style. With blocks.

I just thought I'd share this fun game with you all. Took me hours to find it.

Okay here I come. There was a nes(i think) platformer game, it was dark and the concept was almost similar to megaman. I mean you play as a robot and you can get the bosses' abilities after you defeat them. In the intro some evil dudes kidnapped the president of the US, with comments like this "MERRY X-MAS MR PRESIDENT" or something like that. Then the main hero guy showed up who looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger with shades and white pants, and oh right, a flying bike.

I'm, again, looking for a game. It's a freeware game in which you control a ball. This ball needs to get to the end of a hub, by finishing enough levels to open doors (in SM64 fashion, only each level is simply one star). In a level you had to get to the end by breaking fruit blocks. Each fruit block had a different color, and your ball had to be the same color to break the blocks of that kind of fruit. To change color you had to bump into a special color change block, and that's about the basic thing. There was also a level editor and all that. Anyone have an idea what it is?

Yeah, I loved San Andreas, but it was just such a black game. :x Like. Eh, I dunno, it was all so frickin' black, and I enjoyed the atmosphere of Vice City more.
