which is your favorite game?

RE: which is your favorite game?
My favourite game at the moment is Musket and Pike: The Renaissance. However, my favourite game changes every couple of months or so as I buy new games or return to old ones. My longstanding favourites are the Steel Panthers games (winSPMBT, winSPWW2 and SP:WAW) and the various incarnations of Europa Universalis. I keep returning to them in between whatever new games I buy.

LMAO - in 6 months time, I might welcome such posts! [:D]ORIGINAL: Hertston
Another six months and we'll have spambots telling us at great length why WitP:AE is a superior game to TOAW3, before going on to directing us to somebody selling life insurance and selling Viagra. [X(]ORIGINAL: Arctic Blast
Fantastic use of a spam sig, sir. And I actually must commend you on having one link to a dsl provider, and another that claims to be for...a surgeon?

Hmm, a spambot responding to a spambot subject ?
History began July 4th, 1776. Anything before that was a mistake.

Master Of Orion (the original MOO)
A manual that is 70 pages long;
a strategy guide (Alan Emrich & Tom Hughes) at 402 pages long including 80 charts/tables and 9 appendices;
an AI that will frustrate novices at normal and even beat the experts on hard.
Playing it right now on my 24" monitor.... [8D]

RE: which is your favorite game?
I lost a lot of games of Master of Orion the ai always had so many ships I swore it was cheating on normal mode. I would have 25 ships small mind you and it would have 100's of smalls and 10's of mediums and at least 1 or 2 large. It cheated I tell yah. Now MOO2 I didnt have that problem I could keep up with building and tech in it so that is why it's my favorite it stopped cheating. [:'(]
RE: which is your favorite game?
survival horror like Silent Hill series and fatal frames. for simulations my fav is harvest moon series and best of all, the Sims 2! i can't wait for The Sims 3 next year. it must be fun to watch those little computer people getting complicated and more alive.

Even though I had a 486SX with 4mb of RAM, it was never enough to run Elite smoothly from what I recall.
I think it was referring to the original Elite (eighties), it ran on a Commodore64.
BTW, It was my favorite too, together with Lords of Midnight and Sword of Aragon.

The original Elite was actually written for one of these,

, the 'BBC Micro' (which all Brits above a certain age will remember fondly). It only had 32K of memory.

We got one of those in our school the year I was leaving (1983). Wasn't interested in the slightest in this new thing "computing". It was introduced into the school as a hobby room object. I remember turning up once and there were about 50 people round it. I never went back.

Never seen that in Italy, the first available "home computer" was the VIC-20 in 1980 (I think)

Looks like a spammer to me. Who in their right mind would like a game like that... well, these days maybe I guess anythings possible. [X(]
