    I prefer ES , but Once I played a game called TZAR - The Burden of the crown It's not from ES but was excellent.What I played was a demo version :(.. Now I'm really not getting time to sit for games. Soon I'll free myself up and start collecting the games again. :cool:.. You know , I played very little campaigns in AOE3 and too little AOM.. they are cool, but something in AOE-II Conqueror attaracts me the most. I never get enough of it :). I love the spanish civilization.. and you? and you still play games at home?

        There's no ways I can squash my whole life into three choices. Ok here we go: Sopwith (CGA) Dig Dug (EGA) Battle of Britan (VGA) Big Red Racing The Horde Star Control 2 (Does NOBODY remember this game?!) All the "Quest" games (Kings quest etc) Command and Conquer 1 Warcraft 1 Starcraft Far Cry Final Fantasy 8 all the Tekken games (Arcade and PS2) Civilisation Some of the "Sim" games Quake I'll post more as they pop up in my head. I didn't get any sleep last night. I just bought Scrubs seasons 1 through 3 on DVD :D

              Yup, No idea about AOE3, I've played few scenarios as English, If I remember it correctly. I'll start my experiments on AOE3 soon.

                  Totally forgot about Wing Commander, and how I had to upgrade my video card and system memory to play it. Thanks for the jolt!

                  I actually have never managed to play the WingCommander 2 properly. First my computer was to slow when I bought it (second hand in London no less :D), then it was to fast, so I had to cheat my way through just to see the story. I so love(d) the series :D --------------------------- 127.0.0.1 - Sweet 127.0.0.1

                    Kaboom - so simple, but so addictive. I reckon if the new PS3 has the same impact today as the 2600 did then, my marriage will end. Regards Angel ********************************************* The sooner you fall behind, the longer you have to catch up.

                              Are you asking about very old games when you say 'fondest'? I haven't been using computers for very long, but these are my favorite games: 1. Age of Empires 3 2. Age of Mythology 3. Age of Empires 2 - The Conquerors Expansion Cheers, Vikram.

                                      Yeah, Civ2 is the best in the series for playability. The original is the one that kept me busy when I should have been working towards my degree though!

                                        I'll give 5, in chronological order: The original Tetris. (It's still the best version!) Descent 3. (This was the first first person shooter that really really hooked me. For me, it was the first that showed what really was possible. This was also the first computer games my kids really started playing in earnest.) No One Lives Forever. (No game before or since has quite matched the pure joy of this game, though World of Warcraft comes close.) Command & Conquer Tiberian Sun. (The first strategy game that hooked me. My kids and I still occasionally play it to this day.) World of Warcraft. (I was skeptical, but my oldest son really wanted it. He saved some money, I built a faster computer and we bought it. I created a character and next thing you know I'm totally hooked. So hooked, I went from playing through a new game once a month, to playing through only three within the last fifteen months [Including Doom 3, which sucked, and Half Life 2, which was decent.]) [EDIT: I should add that my truly fondest memories aren't the games themselves, but how excited my kids would get, and still get, when I play them. My youngest son especially loves to sit next to me and just watch and help. We made a good team. I can't count the times I'd be standing in a virtual room scratching my head as to what to do next when my nine-year-old son would impatiently tell me the solution to the puzzle. Some fathers connect with their boys through baseball, I do so through computer games. So, anyone who mocks computer games can just go to hell as far as I'm concerned.) Anyone who thinks he has a better idea of what's good for people than people do is a swine. - P.J. O'Rourke

                                        I could never cope with the full-on 3d that Descent plunged you into. Give me a floor to stand on, dammit!

                                          Fallout (I love this game, first RPG that made me crazy) StarCraft (I used to stayed up all night and played on battle.net) Diablo 2 (the reason I signed up for DSL, the fastest connect I could get at the time)
