I'll join that UT game/team too. And maybe bring along Cassie, who can often thrash me these days, at least until I warm up and get mean...

Currently playing Rocketmen:Axis of Evil. It's a 3D CCG - you know, cards, dice, little tape measures etc. Otherwise I'm painting Warhammer figures. I've never played a game of Warhammer, but I enjoy painting the figures.

I gave up on computer games when I realise they suck your life out through your eyes and found a more constructive way to lose time and energy.

But you are right, the game itself is a bit repetitive. Also on the PC control of aircraft is very difficult. Still haven't passed the Radio Control helicopter side mission.


This is when I stopped playing. I realized that the effort required to continue playing wasn't worth it after hitting this "wall".


Was der hahn ?!?!?

When you get here, I'll see in you in the Cyber Room, Adelaide street, city.

UT2k4, or BF2. Your call.

I'd join a UT2K4 clan (not the older ones, something in the engine makes me motion sick like mad) if i had an installation for it laying about. Which i of course have not.

I have the original (and Unreal 1 and 2) here, but have only played the demo of 2k4. I'd be very happy to buy it, though, if some play was in the offing - it's pretty much lying around in remainder bins for 20 bucks these days, which is a good thing. lithos - there's this thing called the Intarweb, not sure if you've heard of it, that allows multiplayer games all over teh woreld...

ooo, yeah, forgot about him... ouch. Hmm, there has to be a market in Oz for a custom level with a skinned Alston character and the whole goal of the level is to gib him again and again and again...

Man, I bought Myst IV shortly after it came out. I played it for about 2 hours before I gave up. I picked it up again (full installation: 8 GIGS!!) and started playing again. This game will make you feel like a complete idiot. Have no dilusions about your intelligence. There is no way that you can play this game. It's fucking ridiculous. I can't even pass some of the puzzles after I cheat. If you play it, don't hope to beat it in under about a year.

I'm not a GTA fan. I fire those games up, drive around, crash into things, run people over, steal cars, kill people. At that point 10 minutes has gone by so I decide to play some missions, realize the missions suck and the game is boring, then give up. Popular series, just not for me.

I'd consider lifting my PC gaming ban if anyone wanted to get a WGB original UT clan going just for laughs. I destroy at CTF.

Crash-- thanks for the info on Fate. Never saw that. I'm a huge action/rpg fan. Did you ever play Darkstone? I always felt that this is what Diablo II should have been. Really solid action RPG fully realized in 3D with a great camera.

ArkanGL-- Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy was excellent. Totally refreshing experience. Reminded me of the Shenmue series a lot in a good way.

What is this "sniper rifle" you speak of? Wink

Hmmm, so what would the clan name be?

WGB?
Pirate Ninjas?
Meat Cowboys?

Hmm, I care not what the clan name is, but I'll play: if it's late enough at night mountain time so the kids are in bed, or else during the day. UT classic for a start (sorry Wanderer), maybe - or I'll try to pick up 2k4 soonish...

We should just all play Soldat damnit. Free, small install and brutally fast paced action!

Hell, i'd set up a server for the WGB so people can try it out in a non competetive environment. But my provider thrashed my bandwidth for the remainder of the month because i exceeded the download limit they set. So it'll just have to wait.

My compy can't handle most new games so lately I've been rooting around the interweb for DOS games. Getting back into X-Com, has to be one of the best games ever.

My FPS of choice at the moment is Call of Duty. Gonna have to upgrade for CoD2 soon.
