Could it be Darkstone or Silver?

[tim-bo-jay]

nah I'm pretty confident this one was a PC Only title based on it's controls and UI. I don't know why but I'm getting the feeling it was maybe from around 96 or 97

Relatively recent turn-based wargame with hexagons for pc with good animations and soldiers  represented by their heads.

hey, guys, i can't remember the name of the game (I believe it is late 90's or early 00's) it is a racing game where you drive cosmic-style cars with some crazy shapes and unearthly layout, the tracks seem like you're driving on another planets locations... actually on the whole that's all I remember... and also i'd be glad to find where to download this game from for free

This could be a lot of things.  The Wipeout and Megarace series come to mind, as well as POD, Hi-Octane and Rollcage.  Do you remember what system you played it on?

Wow, dude!!! Thanks!! I've google what you've mentioned, and POD is what i was thinking of!!! 

this game made my days when I was attending school!! Awesome one! Thanks again. Do you know where it can be downloaded now with Windows 7 compatibilty?

OK, my memory is a bit vague and the game is probably pretty obscure,  but I hope someone can help me out on this:

I'm looking for an isometric fantasy PC RPG I saw in a store in the early 00s. It looked similar to the old Infinity Engine games but could have been a Diablolike as well. IIRC the box art was a greenish creature on a solid black background and the title may have been some kind of gibberish fantasy word like "Morodin" or sth like that.

EDIT: found it, it's this: http://www.mobygames.com/game/windows/gorasul-the-legacy-of-the-dragon

The GOG re-release of POD Gold is compatible with Windows 7.

This... this kinda satirical Diablo-style RPG where you played a peon in an office building. I remember the trick was you could equip literally anything, including desks and potted plants and the like, and that the website had a virtual die that decided how much you would pay for the game.

[AzDeR]

I remember a game from my childhood. I was around 3-4 yo so it's pretty hard to remember.

I remember balls with numbers on them. It was a kind of arcade game where you had to move balls on steelyard and the game had probably something to do with math/balance. Dark background. There were also bombs and stuff to move if I remember right.

Game was probably, if not on DOS, on Windows 95.

Nope, there wasn't alieny landscapes, just futuristic planes in mountains (mainly brown, boring ones, though I remember some rivers and trees too, but mainly mountains). But maybe I wasn't that far in the game, though crosshair was different, that much I remember. Maybe some mod? Dunno, got this on game magazine which I forgot name of and now I don't remember it.

Could it be Scorched Planet ?

Pretty sure it was Super Office Stress by SOS who also made the recently released McPixel.

It's now open source so the pay-die is gone.

May it be Soul Bringer ?

Can someone remind me of a game, I think it was released in the year <=2000 and it was like RPG game, I'm not sure if it was fps-view, more like 3rd-p-view.
There were a few playable races, I'm not sure if you could choose a class for them.
Anyway, every time you chose a race that you want to play, there was a short scene where it shows your race.
I am very positive that when you chose Dwarf, he had this small wooden shield and a weapon on hand, and he was falling from some kind of roof and I felt really sorry for him(in a cute/funny way), and after the falling scene you can play him.
For Human race I think you woke up in some kind of prison.
I also think you could eat red berries from bushes to gain health(I also think they grew back on the bushes after a certain time)
Can someone remind me please? It could be an unpopular game, but I recon it being quite good in graphics at the time, and gameplay was awesome .

I'd appreciate for someone digging in their past memories for this. Thanks is advance .

Maybe Battlespire

or Stonekeep ?

^ No playable dwarves in TES. In Stonekeep you get dwarves in your party but you play as a human and there's no third person view.

[Dr. LudoS]

My bad, I've read "1st Person view" instead of "3rd person view."

Then, reading again the description, I definitively think the game is "Severance : The Blade of Darkness"
http://www.mobygames.com/game/windows/blade-of-darkness/screenshots

You can choose from amazon, barbarian, knight and dwarf. The dwarf wears a wooden shield and an axe. The Knight starts the game in prison. And it's all in 3rd person view. But it's more of an heroic fantasy beat'em up than a real rpg (though you gain xp points).

EgilsJ, if it's not this one, then I don't known what game you're looking for .

Nope, don't remember the hud, though enemy plane models were quite similar. The only thing I remember from GUI is crosshair (I remember HUD was very simplistic - only crosshair and perhaps ammo counter, life was indicated AFAIK by cracks on screen).

Also game ran fully on software renderer (very fluid one at that) as I had no 3D card at time I was playing it (had Pentium 166 MMX with old S3Trio card (4mb, I think) with no acceleration).

Here's quick paint mockup how crosshair looked like (or at least how I've remembered it):

It was either one of them or combination of. Also I think it was rendered with xor or not color blending.
