Hey Everyone,

I just have a question for you: what is your favorite computer game? I'd have to go with Age of Empires, though I haven't played many computer games in my life. My new computer came with 5 sport type games including Need For Speed: Porsch Unleashed, so I'm trying those out now. I'm also hoping to get Half Life for Christmas. Anyway, what's your favorite?

Does Playstaion count? I hope so because I don't play PC games. My newest games for that are Tony Hawk 2 and Gran Turismo 2. I like them both.

Has to be Quake 3

I dont get to play it that often, but when I do I love it :D

I have Playstation as well, and my favorite game for that is Metal Gear Solid. That game rocks! :D

Yes, I too have MGS and it's brilliant. I love the part where your a sniper and you have to take out the other (female) sniper and you hearts pounding. It's cool :D

Delta Force I, II, and III and Half Life (Counterstrike) for the computer. I really like Perfect Dark on N64. :)

Yeah, I know! I actually wish they would have included more parts where you have to use the sniper riffle. Maybe in MGS2? :)

Mech Warrior 3, NBA Live 2000, Quake 3, and the classic, Starcraft.

You ever play Syphon Filter? You get to use a sniper rifle a whole lot. Then there is Tenchu, which is a Stealth game.

Definitely Tony Hawk 2. My wife says I'm addicted but I could stop anytime time I wanted to, really.:)

I've heard those Tony Hawk games are pretty awesome, though I haven't tried any myself. Maybe I should pick that one up, along with Syphon Filter and Tenchu (I remember when that came out! It was rated grusomest game ever)...

Tenchu two isn't as good as one IMO, I just rented Syphon Filter 2 (still on first level) so I don't know about that one. but I have both Tony Hawks and they are both great. they need more to them though (i've beaten both and want part 3 already) although part two can be a very long game if you want to open everything (to get one secret you need o beat the game with all players)

This spring I bought my GF a copy of Rollercoaster Tycoon. She loves it!

That's cool. My brother likes that game a lot. I must admit that I've fired it up a few times and spent hours building a crappy rollercoaster. I love making them crash :) Anyway, if she likes that game then she'd probably like any SimCity games. Probably The Sims too.

I don't really have too much game software on my computer.

I have Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2000, but I don't really play that. I have some other small ones and I have Baseball Mogul 2000, which I play a lot. :)

I'd either have to go with Civilization: Call to Power or Unreal Tounament

I am really liking this topic now! They are another 2 of my favourite games! The only problem is that with Civ: CTP you cant stop playing it!

What????????

No one picked Counter Strike?

Holy Crap.

You have to play this one. I am addicted.

It was on the news a while ago that they found a guy dead in his apartment, doped up on crank and had been online playing Counter Strike for 72 hours or more straight.

Minus the crank I can totally relate.

The best game I've played recently is Jedi Knight 2 - at the beginning its a normal type of FPS, but then when you get the lightsabre - its one of the best games ever :D

lately I've been playing Star Trek Armada II, can't beat the last 2 missions though

:(

03 Jul 2002, 02:20 PM
I didn't think that was as good as the first one (although I have only played the demo of both of them!)

azoric

Armada II had better campaigns.

Only problem with Civilization is that you have turns, and it gets boring. Have you tried games like Pharaoh? Basicly strategic city-building games I like a lot.

im quite the PS2 fan, and have been working my way though Rachet and Clank, and also Burnout2. I got bmxXXX the other day, its quite good, although recently, i have been totally hooked on Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon, Sum of all fears and also Conflict: Desert Storm. As far as PC games go, i had to install win98 on my machine again, just so i could play transport tycoon deluxe :P

UT2K3 rocks!

Still playing Diablo II here, awesome game !

Have been playing a little GTA 3 aswell, bought UT 2003 but I don't like it, still play the origional. 2003 looks nice, but the gameplay sucks.

i cant wait to got my hands on Unreal 2 tho!

gaming...

well I finally had to pull myself away from Grand Theft Auto III (beat it... no cheats!)

Lately it's been Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast.

Yesterday I went to Media play and Sim CIty 4 was sold out. Need to go back thursday.

Wow, a lot of gamers here!

But I think I got you all beat. I've had every gaming console except for Atari, TurboGrafix16, Panasonic 3do (if you remember those consoles)

I've played many first person's, SOF 2 is the best. Kingpin is good and so is Counter Strike but not as good as SOF. I haven't played Jedi Knight 2 but I played the first one, awesome game. I love star wars.

I used to play Diablo 2 but I'm sick of it.

Right now I'm playing Lord of the Rings for PS2. Don't buy that game, too short.

You Tony Hawk fan's should be playing #4.

tony hawk games are nice. but it would have to be Half Life. Metriod prime rocks. But definately

Half-Life
Quake
Unreal
Command & Conquer
Age of Empires

Quake 3, mod: Urban Terror or Rocket arena 3. I also love Quake 2 and Tribes. If anyone knows of Shogo, its a lot like mechwwarriors, but much better =)

11 Feb 2003, 05:11 PM
+ QIII rocks, I mostly play the rocket arena 3 mod.
+ Battlefield1942 (only played the demos so far, tis good)
+ Dungeon Siege is pretty good so far.

The Sims.............Im hooked, considering buying the ps2 version

21 Feb 2003, 02:36 PM
I doubt the sims will be as good on the PS2. plus you can't get expansion packs! The Next released planned should be entitled "The Sims: Grand Theft Auto"

What about Blades of Steel for nintendo? Perfection was achieved with that game, IMO :)

Antaris
23 Feb 2003, 06:36 PM

The top 5 on our computer would be;
Age of Empires series (currently at Conquerors)
Links 2003
The Sims (just added a whole bunch of expansions - up to Superstar)
Trainz - about to put Trainz 2004 on.
Pyramids - a freebie from long ago. I start my computing day with 2 or 3 games of it.

Civilization I, II, III.

Nothing beats that. All the other startegy & war games are based on it in 1 way or another.
