Hi, I'm looking for a shareware game from the 90s. It was a 2D shooter, and in it you were part of the police in some futuristic city, and you had a car with guns on it. Does anyone know the title of this game?

The game you are looking for is Traffic Department 2192.

You are welcome.

Default game name

Hello. Long time ago I played a game related to history of video games, and now can not remember its name. You had to build game engine, then develop new games and release on various consoles. I think it wasn't an old game.

Are you referring to the GameBiz games? There are two of those, really. And you can get them at our sister site, Reloaded:

GameBiz

GameBiz 2

I hope these are what you are looking for. Enjoy!

There's also a third part to the series but it's a paid title.

Also if by any chance you're Android user I couldn't recommend GameDev Story more, it's a brilliant little mobile title dealing with same thing (game development company simulation minus all the console/PC building possibilities).

Gamebiz is excellent, someone recommended it to me on the FTL forums, and I was so fascinated with GB2 that I forked out the 15 Euros for GB3 and it was well worth it, big improvement over part 2 and one of the most engrossing economic simulations since Capitalism 2. Especially for abandonware gamers its awesome to relieve the gamebiz history, part 3 has real names.
