Swilson Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 My favorite computer game used to be runescape - now I'm back into the stupid card games What is your favorite computer game (new or old) Quote
Ronjunior Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 Forsaken in the day and Unreal. Death to Runescape, my son has this wild idea about making a living from it. Needless to say, we've limited that to 1 hr./day...he's 13! Quote
Swilson Posted January 9, 2007 Author Posted January 9, 2007 A friend of mine that I used to work with led me to the path of Runescape. Can't say I really understood the entire thing,,,so, that was my past time, trying to figure it out. However, my nephew sold his person (or such thing) on ebay for $400. I then realized this was not the place for me. And yet, people are still into it. That was 3-4 years ago for me. Quote
andy Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 World of Warcraft, though I'm starting to tire of it. Quote
mister crabs Posted January 9, 2007 Posted January 9, 2007 counter strike....gotta ove the oldie but goodie first person shooter.....i still play every now and again but the new versions out have changed the way the bullets hit and its frustrating.... Quote
spayne Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 World of Warcraft' date=' though I'm starting to tire of it.[/quote'] I've thought about trying WoW to see what the hype is all about. Course, this must wait until we build a new computer that can actually run the game... or any game currently on the market for that matter! I'm not sure I would enjoy people pestering me while playing though. I'm a leave-me-alone-I'm-gaming kind of girl! We do our gaming on the Xbox 360. At present I'm pretty obsessed with "Viva Pinata," and I say this with a healthy dollop of chagrin as it is a kid's game. But last time I checked my "Horstachio" was number one on the Xbox Live leaderboards pertaining to value. I rule! (rock2) Course, people keep pestering me on Live, asking how I got my pinata to be so valuable. DOH! Quote
impur Posted January 10, 2007 Posted January 10, 2007 WoW on PC. Stacy ppl don't bother you during the game really. Once in awhile you get an invite to a group or guild or a duel. But you can decline and go about your biz. Thats what i do too, mostly solo play. On PS2 i'm playing Need 4 Speed Most Wanted. Sweet game, i'm half thru it. Some of the milestones you have to pass are crazy. Like you have to tag (ram) 18 police cars in my next one, and then escape capture. Then i have to let the police chase me for 20min and get away!!!

spayne Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 WoW on PC. Stacy ppl don't bother you during the game really. Then I will give WoW a go when we get the new computer built. So many people love it, I guess I'd better check it out. And probably become obsessed with it like so many others! (laugh) "Need 4 Speed" sounds pretty fun! Anytime you have to thwart the fuzz (I have several in the family, I can say that!) in a game is a good time. Just don't forget when you're driving around Eugene. I'd hate to see a report about you on the evening news because you rammed 18 police cars then eluded capture for 20 minutes! Quote
SeanF Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Got a Nintendo Wii for my daughter for Christmas. We all know how that really works don't we. It is sweet both because of the interactive game play and the fact that you can download some of the old game system games. I have been playing the first Zelda game and Super Mario Bros. They are still working on getting the old games converted over but they have games from nintendo, super nintendo, nintendo 64, turbo graphix 16, sega genesis and maybe another one that I can't remember. The controllers on the thing are incredible. If you go bowling or play tennis and turn your wrist or anything like that and the controller picks up on it. Now if I could just find a second controller for the thing I would be in business. Quote
impur Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 Stacy LOL my car would be damaged, in the game there is no damage to your car! How can you lose? (laugh) Wii sounds sweet. I didn't know it played genesis games, there are a few i used to love on genesis. I might have to look into the Wii for sure... Quote
mister crabs Posted January 11, 2007 Posted January 11, 2007 i want a wii but i bought a gamecube when it first came out and hated the games available....so i may jsut get teh ps3 Quote

fly guy Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 I used to play counterstrike/halflife online many years ago. I havent played in at least 5 years, but just last week i bought halflife 2 and a new video card on my comp to handle it. It was pretty fun.....and the graphics are sweet........im NOT going to go back online and play deathmatch though...WAY too addicting Quote
reefgeek84 Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 I guess if we have to pick video games...I would say Final Fantasy! probably the best game ever created. Quote
mister crabs Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 I broke a few keyboards playing deathmatch and iceworld.....haha Quote
Ronjunior Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 Found a copy of UT2004 Tourn, but no CD Key :( Watched an interesting movie tonight and figured it must have been from an idea of a game; Silent Hill. Very interesting, but watching how they made the movie is amazing. Must be quite a challenge to take what they create in a PC game and put it to the big screen. (the director said playing the game was the most scared he's ever been in his life which gave him the idea) It made me realize I needed to rent Doom from the library, forget to reserve it last year.

mister crabs Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 silent hill is a video game from playstation platform. Quote

Difference between now and when i used to play............is i used to be pretty good........now I am getting my @$$ whooped. LOL 11 and 72 last night (laugh) Anybody else here play?? Quote
Ronjunior Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 Until I figure out a solution, I'll have to stick to Deathmatch on UT2003..usually what I play....I swear it's like playing with a bunch of people that cheat! I completely suck being out of practice! (I'm original, I go by Ronjunior in games too) Quote
Piero Posted January 17, 2007 Posted January 17, 2007 Last game I played on a PC was Battlefield 2142 demo. Used to play Battlefield 2 a lot. Thank GOD i'm turned off by fantasy themes, or i'd be one of the 8million hooked on WoW. Nomore PC gamin though...I got enough distraction with the Xbox 360 and Wii. MMO's are evil too I tell ye!...

Piero Posted January 17, 2007 Posted January 17, 2007 Burnout Revenge on the 360 in high def...carnage heaven. Playing Lost Planet currently though. Quote
