'Aight, here's one that's been bugging more for a LONG while.
You play as a ninja, and you take some mercenary-like jobs. I remember seeing videos of it and wanting it.
It's for PS2 and it's NOT Tenshi. 3D, though. I think there was either a random level generator or editor.

Tenchu, Shinobi (the 2002 one), Nightshade, or Red Ninja: End of Honor.  Any of them?
No. I'm pretty sure it has Shinobi as one of or part of one of the words, though.

I recall a weird Racing Arcade Game from the 90's, and yes, there were many; I remember something very peculiar about this game though. Halfway through the race, you would encounter a rather ugly man standing on the track. If you tried to dodge him though, he would inevitably move to intercept your car anyways. Once you run over him, he climbs on top of your hood and smashes it with a pipe wrench (or something similar). Game over.

Any ideas?

Not sure if being trolled...  That just sounds TOO weird.

Sounds a little like how SkiFree worked. You go down a hill and at a certain point a yeti runs over to eat you. The yeti was very difficult to avoid, and yes being eaten was a game over.

I like how it's "halfway through the race", yet "inevitable" that you get a game over.

Here's an odd request: I remember playing this freeware game several years ago, which was sort of like a 3D version of Space Hulk. You had a squad of soldiers who were exploring an abandoned space station or something, and there were zombies pouring out of everywhere that could pretty much kill you in one hit. You controlled one of them at a time and they all had different skills and weapons. I can't find it nor can I remember what it was called. Can anyone help?
I know exactly what you're talking about. I just can't remember the damn name. I have it on my computer, which I'm not on at the moment.
... Alien Swarm? It doesn't have zombies but it's 3d and sorta like it.

No, that wasn't it. It was sort of an FPS and you could switch between the soldiers during play.

Are you sure it isn't Space Hulk?

I'm trying to remember this browser only game, with no animations, you were the ruler of a fief and part of a larger group of kingdoms. Every hour or so you would get action points and you could use them to build a farm or a town hall or train soldiers, stuff like that.

And you'd all go to war or be peaceful with other kingdoms

In Travian, you don't own a fief. It sounds like Travian, but most likely isn't.(cue in to the guy going "oh yeah, Travian, right, thx a lot")

Ah, I figured it out: Utopia. Sort of want to get back into it, but I can't tell if many people play it anymore

Yay, I was right (but was long since beaten to it).

Man, that game was...well, I don't know if I'd call it /good/, but it certainly spawned a genre.

Uh there SHOULD be a thread somewhere but I forgot. Anywho the basis of the game is you have a ship crewed by people, there was a demo in which you got to sample some combat before being forced up against a heavily advanced ship. The gimmick is that you tell people what to do in your ship. It's sort of like DF: the spaceship.

Edit: Thanks a bunch!

Gotcha' covered.

Annoyingly, I forget the name, too. It was only ten or so twelve pages back, though.
