    Hi Guys,

    There was a game gamespot recently reviewed (I would've guessed in the past 6 months but since I can't find it in the reviews, maybe it's farther back) that I can't remember the name of. I think it is either a PC or IOS game. It was a 16 bit-looking game that got a favorable review, I think an 8.0 - maybe a bit less. The picture of the game or screen shot that I remember is a heavily pixelated guy holding up a sword. GS praised it for it's environments despite the 16 bit graphics. I want to say the title was something like "Adventure" or some simple one word thing like that (no, not the atari 2600 Adventure, but these do seem to share several things in common!).

    I've been digging through reviews over the past 4 or 5 months but can't find it. Any ideas?

    Thanks much!

    Looking for an old rpg. You started out in a cave, you could transform to a small creature (maybe a mouse?) and a large beast/ogre like creature. There was a sort of jungle area too and cat people. It sort of looked like Stonekeep.

    The intro showed you how you turned into a monster and overpowered the guards, then into a small rodent like creature to escape small holes, then after the intro was over, you found yourself at a cave. It was first person perspective. CDROM game. For the PC.

    After you escaped the cave, you travelled around a forest I think, and found a village. The graphics were very similar to Stonekeep.

    No, it's quite older than that. It was also first person.

    Again, its appearance was similiar to Stonekeep.

    So, I guess it was on PC, mid-late 1990s, fake 3D, point and click interface?

    Anvil of Dawn?

    sorry I can't be more specific but the games I'm looking for are from my childhood and I can't remember them very well. I'll be as specific as I can about both and srry for limitation.


    Both games I would imagine are from the 1990's
    --------------
    first game

    This was an rpg game

    I have no idea what system it's on. But This is what I remember from the game

    I think you're in a castle and theres a room with a bunch of alters where map pieces go. Map pieces were typically different colors. When you collected every piece of a map you would be able to go into the map and explore that world looking for more map pieces.


    There also may have been a scene with a volcano and a fire sorceress.

    Again srry for the lack of detail.

    ============================
    second game

    This is a puzzle game I believe

    I believe this game was on the ps1 but my search is lacking and I'm not 100% it is....

    The game starts with a young boy who is in his house. I believe he's trapped in a "dream?" world with his sister. His sister has been shrunk and is trapped in a bird cage. So you must solve puzzles and seek for a way to get her free. The idea is ultimately working with brother and sister you overcome the boss at the end.

    I don't remember much else except that I left the house downward and found a pumpkin hopping in a hedgemaze yard.

    Srry for lack of detail, I played this game when I was in the hospital for depression so I really didn't get far.

    Im looking for a ps2 game that i used to play when i was younger.
    It's a third-person shooter, i have been searching the web for hours just to find this game, and with no luck.

    The start of the game is that you see a group of 3 soldiers or so entering a base.
    They enter it through a big air vent, this is where you take over and have to get past some big rotor blades or get chopped up.
    After that they enter the facility/base and the first thing they find is some larva looking aliens(i think they are black and blue) crawling on the walls, you then have to shoot them and recover some item and turn on the power in the facility, after that is done you see one of your friends getting attacked by these aliens and he then transforms into some sort of "super alien" that you have to kill, you then get dragged deeper and deeper into the facility where you find out the secrets of the aliens and face a whole lot of other aliens and bosses. in the game you will find different items and weapons( you start out with some machine gun and get's attachments to it later on, such as a shotgun, flamethrower) you will also find different clothes that helps you in different environments ex. you have to get outside of the facility where there is snow a few times, and you will die after a little while if you don't have the snow jacket. I will try to remember more of the game but hopefully one of you guys can help me find this game
    Thnx
