I remember playing a game at my grandpa's house where it is night-time and there are two monkeys in a city with high risers. You had to set strength and angle and try and throw bananas at the other monkey until you won or he hit you. What was this game?

I believe that's the classic Gorillas game for QBasic, otherwise known as GORILLAS.BAS. A Flash-based version of it can be found here:

Yeah that's gorillas alright and in old MSDOS there was an executable for it too as I remember playing it off and on for a time, but then I discovered Scorched Earth and didn't care anymore. :)
