I am just a little curious to know where everybody comes from around here. I have a sordid gaming past. I started playing Flight Sims like Wing Commander and FreeSpace, then moved to RTS like Command & Conquer, and the last game I played was ... I dont know if I should tell you...

...Counter-Strike. AAAAAAAAAAAa.... I know. A CSer. /me hides in shame.

The things that RPGs always did wrong (Stand still... I shoot you, you shoot me, then I shoot you, then you shoot me, then I heal, then you heal, then I shoot you...), in my oppinion, are exactly what GW does right.

So... Where ya'll from?

LOL, now that's a good question right there. Just going off of PC games, then that would be SimCity 3000 Unlimited

Console games though is an entirely different story. I haven't gotten any new games for my Gamecube/PS2/SP/NES/N64 recently, but the last one that I had put any major time into was The Lord of the Rings: The Third Age (which was a pushover if you ask me), and Kingdom Hearts on PS2.

On my computer I've played cs for about 3 years. Recently I played KOTOR 1, Prince of Persia and the first 2 Splinter Cells.

I mainly play console rpgs, though. Faves would be the Chrono Series, Final Fantasy 6 and Shadow Hearts Covenent. Lately I've been playing Devil May Cry 3 and I can say that game kicks my arse.

Arcala · Mar 27, 2005, 11:58 PM // 23:58

Heh.. Last game I regularly played for a long time was D2, before that I played a mmorpg called "Monster and Me". Don't be suprised if you haven't heard of it. ;o

As far as pc games goes I started playing gemstone 3 in '95 or '96.After 2 AOL bills at $500 dollars each I had to stop.lol.After that I started with EQ for a few years.Then went to Horizons(did not like gameplay).Lineage2 for 6 months but stopped 1 1/2 months before chonicle 2(gind grind grind!).Tried a few other mmorpgs but so far GW has my vote hands down.Of course I play many other pc games such as RTS,FPS,ect..

Oldest games played to newest, timewise:

long time ago: Quake, Duke3d etc....and also, MUDs, oh and Commodore 64

yes I'm old enough to have owned one of those lol. Atari, Nintendo, Super NES, Nintendo 64. And then I stopped console gaming. I liked the feel of PC gaming far more.

Command and Conquer Red Alert 2/Yuris Revenge
Diablo2, then Diablo2 LoD
Counterstrike waaay back 1.3 or before...to 1.6
Counterstrike: Source

Currently, Day of Defeat and then Day of Defeat: Source, and of course, Guild Wars. I dont expect to add any new games anytime soon thats for sure. There have been many other games, but these are the notables.

JYX · Mar 28, 2005, 12:35 AM // 00:35

Multiplayer games?

I've played most singleplayer FPS games released in recent years.

As for internet games:

Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne
Counterstrike: Source

I play those two religiously...and still do.

Lunarhound · Mar 28, 2005, 12:49 AM // 00:49

If we're talking mmorpg's I've played quite a few, but my most recent was World of Warcraft. Unlike a lot of people here, I don't think it was an awful game. I enjoyed it quite a bit, but there was just too much about Guild Wars that was better (not the least of which is the lack of a subscription fee). I'm now in the process of trying to get my friends on WoW to convert to Guild Wars... Not an easy task. They're all huge skeptics.

Enix · Mar 28, 2005, 12:57 AM // 00:57

Actually, I am curious to know what besides mmorgs you have played.

Come on, baby. Let me get to know ya better.

Lunarhound · Mar 28, 2005, 01:00 AM // 01:00

I dunno, that's a pretty big question.

A little bit of everything, really. At the moment, I'm working on Growlanser Generations and thinking of picking up God of War.

Nash · Mar 28, 2005, 01:02 AM // 01:02

StarCraft, Diablo 2, The Third Reich/Red Orchestra (WW2 mods), Neverwinter Nights (offline), Enemy Territory...

Illiniskippy · Mar 28, 2005, 01:53 AM // 01:53

The game I have spent the most time playing is Shadowbane.

Ferelle · Mar 28, 2005, 01:59 AM // 01:59

I've played EQ, Dawn of War, Halo, mutliple MUDS, Doom 3 and numerous other games on the PC.
On consoles, I've played way too many to list.

GW is my current all time fav though.

Ren Falconhand · Mar 28, 2005, 02:07 AM // 02:07

I thought I was the only person old Enough to remember the commadore 64 I had some good games for that thing LOL
