Are you looking for a quick flashgame, for a free MMO or for something more serious?

Right now, I've been downloading Anarchy Online, which has taken a good 8 hours so far since the file is 855 MB. I've never played it before, and have only heard about it in passing, but it's free, it's an MMOG, and I'm having Guild Wars withdrawl, so I needed something to pass the time.

Divine Divinity was fun, but, not Beyond Divinity.

NWN is not bad.

Baldurs Gate II is one of the great classics.

Morrowind... has nice graphics.

*Insert Homer Simpson drooling sound* Zelda games...

I've got original Legend of Zelda for NES, OoT, WW, Collector's Edition, OoT Master Quest, Oracle of Ages, Oracle of Seasons... think that's it. Awesome games though, and I can't wait until the new Zelda comes out later this year...

Well, it turns out that Anarchy Online sucks a big one, so that game got chopped. Hopefully I can get Age of Empires II and the expansion again, so that'll be passing my time now.

Hehe, I have AOE II, I always loved cheatin and spawning those cars, in a custom map with a huge enemy base.


To make a long story short, the cars had machine guns of some sort, all they had was bows and swords.

You could go download a SNES emulator and play old rpgs. FF5 FF6 and chrono trigger are still my favorite console rpgs.

Default gaming is NEVER wasting time...unless the game sucks

I've been playing Morrowind for the third time and a new combination of plug-ins...got to level 48 before doing the main quest...Dagoth Ur died like a scurvey kitten...Level 54 now...my goal is to complete main missions and get ice armor and make cool enchanted items and...oh, crap who cares?

I'm also playing Arx Fatalis...a pretty simple rpg-style game (technically some might say it is, but there is no choice of character....some character development though...might vs. magic)...If you like casting spells, this game makes you memorize a rune and you have to trace it in the air (on the mousepad ) to cast the spell...Also, you have to find food because if you don't eat, you'll die (even without taking damage).

I played through Vampire Masquerade: Bloodlines a couple times (play the Malkavian)...Halflife 2 was too short and playing online was fun right up til the 4,886th time I got auto-sniped and took a headshot from 100 virtual yards with a pistol...blows. Can't wait for GW to start up for realz...cheaters make my ass twitch. DOOM3 has a new expansion coming out, but I traded the main DOOM3 in for credit to get GW...After playing it for an hour, It all turned into just more of the same...highly overrated...great graphics, boring game.

Sacrifice is a good time-killer (got mine in a twin-pack with Messiah, which won't play sound on my machine because of its outdated technology)...Sacrifice is kinda fun...souls=power and you use them to build an army of bizare critters...some take four souls or 8, and some less powerful take one or two...collect and convert enemy souls to build your army and you cast spells to help 'em out along the way...good time-killer and if you can find it, it's usually under $10
