Re: Favorite Games

Tough one...Well, in an ideal world, where I actually have time to play games on my PC, this could have been the list:

-Doom
-Doom II
-Civilization III
-Half-Life (the original)
-Max Payne
-The Monkey Island series
-Quake II
-Nobody Lives Forever 2
-Deus Ex
-plus a bunch of long-forgotten classics...

Should have beens, too, but I never really found time for these:

-Battlefield 1942
-FarCry (Oooh...my PC hated me for buying that)
-Colin McRae 2 (3 was "okay")

Just bought:

-Half-life 2 (and am waiting for a used graphics card so I can even see something move on the screen...)

...Xbox...separate thread...

Re: Favorite Games

Nice, I found someone who likes BG!

My List:
-Baldurs Gate II: Throne of Bhall
-Icewind Dale: Heart of Winter
-Icewind Dale II
-Elasto Mania
-Sim City 2k

Even though most of my list consists of RPGs, I do play some of those good FPS games. Just not often enough to make my most played PC games.

Re: Favorite Games

I know how you feel. I played BG2 for 20 hours straight one day, only stopping because the game reminded me that "while your character doesn't need to eat, remember that YOU do, we don't want to lose any dedicated players."

I am still waiting for the second hand GeForce FX 5600 I bought. The rest of my computer is okay (overclocked to the max...) but the current card is an GeForce ti 4200. It,well, cried when I tried FarCry...
