Video Games

Anyone play video games? PC, Xbox, Playstation Wii or other?

I love the "Grand Theft Auto" series, I'm up to the San Andreas (link) one and it's my hands down favorite (and it has a hardcore music track!). I can play for hours in my spare time... I know bad, but I love bad so that's all good

So anyone else? What's you favorite game? Links? I know I can't be the only one.

I get lost in that game. I like to play adventure games as well like Fable and LOTR. 24 is on my list and Halo 4 but I like to play Halo with someone else or a group.

OB I've heard a lot of good things about Halo... I'm going to have to check it out, but I play on my laptop so I'll have to check the req. (thinking I may have to someday get a hellish gaming laptop).

June I knew I should have got that game ("Left for Dead" not "Donut World".... heh), it really does look great. I think I'll start video game a wish list here.

Wish List
Left for Dead

Oh and also here's a good site that will test your PC to see if it meet's the requirements for some of the more popular games.

Those kind of games rock! I've played Crime Craft which is along those lines too... makes it so much more interesting... and unpredictable.

*must- have- Left for Dead*

Oh bring on the games! I have Just Cause 2 sitting here on my desk waiting to be tried out. Anyone else interested in it? Or know if its any good?

The Heroes of Might and Magic 6 are (almost) here, and that reminded me how much I loved HMM 3 and 4 - 4 being my favourite of the series and 3 having the best map (the Greek mythology one). The first part was too hard for me: you play and play so you could gather some troops... and then a mere pack of the weakest creatures possible beats you

.
Anyone else into HMM? What's your favourite part

?

And anyone into oldies/abandonware?
Those are my favourite games

.
Old Sierra and LucasArts adventures, Civilization, The Lost Vikings...

I've discovered Princess Maker 2 last year - and what a surprise

!
You'd expect something completely different judging by the title alone. The game is so full of intricacies and possibilities - it reminded me a bit of Black & White: controlling the little things your avatar does (in case of PM2, your... daughter, kinda) you influence the bigger picture, their personality. I got hooked in 5 minutes and didn't get up until I finished one cycle.
Everything plays a part - not just if you send her to learn strategy or arts or magic, but also the date of her birth (Leos are under the Sun's influence and have a bonus when it comes to, hm, Charisma, Libras under Venus' and have a bonus for, say, Sensitivity, etc.) and her blood-type.
I played a censored version and played for the "good" side, so I haven't experienced anything of the things they mention, but if you're interested you might want to check the Controversy part of the Wiki entry (spoliers) - everybody's got different likes/dislikes.

We have all the systems in my house because my son is a big gamer. His fav obsession though is Halo...lol

As for me, my favs are Resident Evil and Tekken. And on the Wii I love Just Dance.

Princess Maker 2 was like the creepiest game ever, just saying.

That said, lately I've been playing games in the Fable and Phantasy Star Online series, on multiple consoles--just between those two series, the XBox 360, PC, and Nintendo DS.
