SMAC CIV II(haven't played it for over a tear though) Fallout 2(boring game, will probably delete it soon...) Grim Fandango(damn good game, don't know why I still have it though. Finnished it twice) NHL98 Starcraft Warlords III Darklords Rising Warlords III Reigns of Heroes The Curse of Monkey Island (finnished it twice, don't know why I still have it) Might&Magic VI(boring game, off you go) Quake II(good for relaxing every now and then) Broken Sword 2 Black Dahlia(impossible game. Great storyline and actors but the puzzles are just plain ridiculous) Well except for all the demos that should be it. No, I don't have much HD left Ambro2000 |

My games are a little skewed, because while I had a 1.6 Gig HD I was deleting left and right to make room, often in places I would normally keep untouched. And I haven't reinstalled everything I might have normally. In any case: SMAC |

Here goes: Half Life: I spend all my PC time at the moment on the internet playing deathmatch Half Life, I'm addicted. Definately the best one player FPS ever made by a million miles and I prefer the deathmatch to Quake 2 but I think that is a matter of taste rather than quality. SMAC I have just come off a bit of a clean up and these are the games which survived. |

SMAC, of course. Theme Hospital (and I'm amused I'm not the only one) Nethack Formerly on, but currently off due to space limitations (still sitting around my house, though): I have a 4G hard drive sitting in my apartment waiting to be installed, which will probably correspond to more games on my hard drive(s). If nothing else, I expect to put Gabriel Knight back on and see if I can get past his whining to play the game. I'm waiting for Riven to drop another $5 before I buy it, but it'll probably be next. |

Theme Hospital- hehe. I loved the demo for that, but never got around to buying it. The demo of Roller Coaster Tycoon is pretty good, but it's too darn hard to design roller coasters- too often I come back to join the original, and I'm one square misaligned, forcing me to rebuild half the coaster, seemingly. Picker: I played Breath of Fire I, and loved it- but took only a passing glance at II and it's plot. It sounded like it totally defied the great plot of the original. How was it? |

If anyone uses the word 'warez' again someone is gonna get hurt  Anyhoo, I have: I hve lots more games (MOO2, NHL98, Baldur's Gate etc) but I needed the hard drive space for Microsoft Access, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Publisher, Corel PhotoPaint, Corel Print House, Visio Technical, Internet Explorer, and oh uyeah Windows 98. |

Another game I really enjoyed borrowing but could never find a copy of my own: Ascendency |
| SnowFire |
posted 06-09-99 02:59 PM ET
4H: Don't bother. Everything I've read about it says that it set up a great feel, had pretty graphics, a lot of options... and totally, completely moronic AI and game features. As well as really unbalanced races (a warrior scientist race? Ahhhh!). I remember one option complained about- the ship battles was each side takes a turn moving one ship, a la chess. So if I have one ship and you have 9, it's still almost like 1 on 1 combat, since for every move each of your ships makes, my ship has 9 moves. |

posted 06-09-99 03:04 PM ET
SnowFire- True enough about the AI being a little slow brained. However I thought the races were fairly even. You had a good variety to choose from too. And as far as the ships go.....1 ship, 1 shot (per turn)...if you're outnumbered.....too bad, so sad.....you were toast. |

of course I still got minesweeper. I didn't include all the games that came with my computer. How many of you played that skiing game? I'm too slow at minesweeper to play it much. At work late at night that's the only game I can play. Can't have unauthorized stuff on the hard drive. And solitare too |

Picker No, DX-ball is not emu, it�s some kind of share-ware I think. I had like 150 ROM:s for MAME but they all vanished when I tried to uninstall IE 4 last year Bishop |

Ha ha! That skiing game is cool, especially that little Yeti dude that comes chasing after you if you play too long!  I just remembered I got Romance of the Three Kingdoms III (does anyone have IV or V, I can't find them anywhere)? |

Let's see... I have CivII and SMAC. That's really it! The only other thing I play with a lot is a thingee called LangMaker, which is a buggy-as-hell language generation program based on Excel. Ot's one of those things that either bores one to tears or fascinates one for hours, depending on how weird you are. (G) |

HW: I would check out the Apolyton multiplayer section before spending your money on Civ2 MGE. I spent a good 75 hours playing it, but have yet to finish a game, even with loyal and honorable opponents. Some have coped with the slow gameplay by playing scenario games, Arena-style games, and diplomatic games. If any of these interest you, it is worth the purchase. If these do not, I suggest saving your cash and playing more SMAC multiplayer. There are also considerations if you're thinking of playing IP. For instance, what time zone you are in. Will you be able to find players that play your type of game, including skill level. |

Spoe: Sorry. I forgot Solitaire and Hearts too. As for Minesweeper, after you learn the patterns, it really becomes luck in clearing minefield- you aren't making any stupid mistakes, and you pray you don't get a field that you clear 95% of and then find 2 squares each with exactly a 50% chance of having a mine and no way to find out more information. I think I'm going to get ImpII very soon. |

Forgot to mention: The old AD&D Gold Box games Pool of Radiance and Curse of the Azure Bonds. Just found Master of Orion in the bargain bin and installed it. OK! 1830: Railroads and Robber Barons--based on the old Avalon Hill boardgame. Excellent AI and other than determining initial order, no luck is involved. Would-be Morgans should love this game. And the Microsoft Entertainment (?) Pack that comes with the computer. ZZZ--snore... To DanS. I would get it for the Conflicts in Civ and the Fantastic Worlds scenarios, if nothing else. Unless you know where I can download them... Add to games I would like to get: |
