I say they add it. :)
If anyone dares respond to this you should definately list your current list of favourite video games. You never know who might pop up with similar interests.
Personally I am a Metal Gear Solid FANATIC! I'm very excited for number 4 to come out... although not as excited to see Snake as an old man ^_^;;
Currently I'm playing Kingdom Hearts and enjoying it verily, a lot less childish than I was expecting.
As always I devour DDR.
And I also have a love for Soul Caliber 3! ^_^;; great times.
... and I'm done here.  | |

| Why isn't there a Gamer thread!? BRING ON THE VIDEOGAMES! Posted: 2/20/2006 9:26:02 PM | | I'm a big fan of the Delta Force series or Half life. I also like Need for speed(all). I've recently tried Unreal Tournament and really liked it too. The San Andreas games are cool as well as the Madden football series. I was looking at Battelfield and Call of Duty the other day and thought they'd be fun to try. There are lots I like to play and think this is a great thread.As far as it being a turn on or turn off well, I gotta say it's kind of a turn on. I dig a woman who can frag like the rest of us! | |

| Why isn't there a Gamer thread!? BRING ON THE VIDEOGAMES! Posted: 2/21/2006 7:33:51 PM | I've been into gaming on and off since Pong days!
I've tried most genres; RPG, puzzle, and so on, but with the emergence of good hardware-driven 3D games in the 90s it became clear that my favorite by a long shot is the first person shooter action game.
I took the handle 'Gunloon' in '97 when I got into Quake I and that's still the name I go by...through Quake I, II, Jedi Knight, and Unreal Tournament.
When I upgraded to a better PC a couple of years back I tried and liked UT 2004 somewhat, though it left me a bit cold. Far Cry was good, but wasn't so hot in the online play...then Half Life 2 came out. Oh my...
As expected, it's an exceptional online playing experience. I was even in an HL2 clan for a while (till it got juvenile), though now I'm pretty happy slaking my addiction with a few rounds a day at my favorite server. It compiles stats, and at my age of 44, it's nice to be ranked #5 of 155 regular players, especially given that so many there are teens and 20-somethings, usually caffeine-stoked to the gills on Code Red Mountain Dew or the equivalent!
Ahhh...nothing like meeting new and interesting people from around the world...and nailing them to the wall with a bolt of red-hot rebar from my crossbow!
Also, I've been thinking about developing my skills at online WW II type aerial combat. The premier game for this is still IL-2 Sturmovik, even though it's a few years old, especially with the addition of the Ace Expansion Pack and the newer Pacific Fighters. I think it'd be neat to get good enough to join an online squadron, though I've got a ways to go before my skills are up to snuff!
Seeya online...
WooT! | |

I used to play what was it... command and conquer red alert way back years ago. That and Final Fantasy 7. Other that that, I stay away from anything that isn't sports. | |

| Why isn't there a Gamer thread!? BRING ON THE VIDEOGAMES! Posted: 2/22/2006 8:55:30 AM | I like PC games. I do have a PS2 here..never set it up. Kiddo has every game platform imaginable...he's making a collection, so he says...sheesh...hope he keeps them in good shape. he wants me to set up his P2 here so we can play on-line...but I haven't a clue about his games.
I like sid Meyers civilization series. Or Masters of Orion...guess I like the "god" type games, rather than the shoot and move type games. I did get a wheel and pedal for the P2 kiddo has...he has a couple race type games...closest thing to real driving I've seen....almost a simulator! I was impressed.
Lots of fun games out there...not ebough time to play them...or sometimes, not the money to buy them either. I'd like to try more on-line gaming (for free!), or even play against someone else...the puter is an ok opponent but not as fun as a living person! | |

Anywho.... I love all the real time strategy games like Red Alert, and Tiberian Sun, etc... As well as the first person shooters like Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Medal of Honor, etc...

| Why isn't there a Gamer thread!? BRING ON THE VIDEOGAMES! Posted: 2/22/2006 9:04:56 AM | Much like kallinite here, I am inclined to say I prefer RPGs over other video games. I'm probably a bit more extreme, but then again I am a loser.
Anyway, here's my list of top games:
Final Fantasy VI Chrono Trigger Tactics Ogre Final Fantasy VII Seiken Densetsu III
Short list anyway.
I must add that I also enjoyed Makai Kingdom, and actually played it a lot more than Disgaea. Then again I didn't buy Disgaea, that might explain things. | |
