Game Identifying
How many of you have played gamecube games and remember the titles, I am trying to find an old one at no result. If someone has, say so and I shall describe the game.
You're thinking of "Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem."
No, no need to thank me. I could tell.

If you give s a description, we might be able to tell you. Describe what the game looked like, what genre it was, what the main character looked like.
If we can't figure it out, I can put in a request on TvTropes' 'Remember that show' section that is basically a bunch of people helping other people remember games and stuff they played/watched/read.

You're clearly thinking of "Spongebob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom".
Character: A princess-mage lady...
Gameplay: You go through a dungeon/area and beat bosses by using cards like a knight which does a melee attack, summoning a skeleton...
Etc: You can find spirites to trade to some guy after the third area for more cards.
Each card has health that goes down after time after using it once. Also melee cards lose health after every use as well.
Also some old person ( I think a lady) runs a shop where you can also merge them.

YES,thank you coco, now time to buy it....
Umm, while this thread is open, I would need help for the same problem. I know most of you guys played rpg games, but i'm looking for an old real time strategy game whith greek theme, and trireme warfare. It's purely naval combat, although you can recruit crew for the ship. Anyone, or you need more details?
Would it happen to have 'Age of-' in its title?
If you mean on AOE I, no, this game is older. You can control only ships. There are buildings you can build on land to improve economy etc, but no people to guide, except buing ship crew. What was specific about it eas that you could either destroy enemy ship, or pull it with the hook or something and then crew fought to capture it.
Ps sorry if my post post itself twice. Something is wrong with my phone.

I'll ask around on TvTropes. There's a section specifically for finding old games you can't remember the name of.
Thanks. If you already did, and they ask some more questions, just give me the link, or ask here, or PM me...
There's a game for the Apple II that I played as a kid and have never had any luck tracking down. There were castles, and the screen would just go to the next one when you left rather than scrolling, and each screen had a kind of title displayed at the bottom, I think.
@Coco: Someone suggested well... this oddly titled game.
Nope. That's not the game. I also remember that there was 'learn to play' section ( not sure if that was the name. Maybe it was tutorial, or something like that. I was 5,6,7 years old, I didn't knew english back then. Funny, but I also don't know it now 
... ), and in that part, you fought pirate ships, and those were the only one with black sails. Other players had sails with blue, red, green, yellow (vertical?) stripes. Now this doesn't help much, as almost every game uses that. But! when your army menages to capture a ship, there is an animation of re-raising sails with your color. As for color combination, age of empires uses the same order, but i'm pretty sure that it isn't their game.

When ships 'hook' to one another (there's also animation of bringing them together ), small bridge is thrown to other ship, and soldiers from both start running and fighting in the middle ( it lasts only a few seconds ), stronger army runs on the other ship and captures it. Thats all done automatically, number and type of troops on the ship determines the winner.

So old I didn't even think about it! 
After decades of no success, I just found the Apple II game I was thinking about.
It was Robot Odyssey. It has been called "The hardest computer game of all time." I didn't notice as a kid. The goal of winning did not occur to me, then.
Boy, you sure never would've gotten this from my description. My memory sure was fuzzy.
EDIT: Okay, after looking at Robot Odyssey some more, I'm even more confused than ever. I feel pretty sure this wasn't the game I played - I would remember it involving chip logic. But the game I remember LOOKED an awful lot like Robot Odyssey. This will probably drive me nuts forever.

Checked out some Apple II games, maybe it's Dark Castle by Silicon Beach Software (SEGA Genesis AVGN version) or Castle Wolfenstein by Muse Software.
I snooped around a bit and found some candidates for the boat-game, however, no ancient Greeks. I assume it's for PC:
Age of Sail from TalonSoft. Gah, no video found. '96
Corsairs: Conquest at Sea from Microïds. In this game the crew board other ships in a RTS manner. '99
Cutthroats: Terror of the High Seas from Hothouse Creations. '99
It's a long-shot but maybe it's Sea Dogs from Bethesda. 2000, It's an RPG (gulp).
The older than AoE1 clause is broken horribly. ('97)
What year was it when you played the game? Which OS did you run? Did you play it/downloaded it from the web? If you can remember.
