Diablo 2 then Diablo 2 LOD. After the new patch I quit because they took all my items away, and that game was all about items.

I tried to start playing that. I have everything downloaded, I just need to register. Is it good? Should it be able to hold me until Guild Wars? Tell me more Skizzle.

As far as MMO's...

UO (5 years), DAoC, AO, CoH, PlanetSide, AC, and currently WoW. UO was by far the best game out of that list... well... back in the day before EA ruined it. WoW is a great game, but their server stability is really starting to ware me down. When you can only play 1-3 nights a week, it sucks when the servers are down 75% of the time.

Guild Wars has the potential to be a great game, and I am absolutely stoked about it coming out (30 more days!)

As for normal games... way too many to list.

I too come from WoW, and agree that is a really great game, but i do not agree with you when you say you only get to play 1-3 nights a week. My guild raids MC/Onyxia everynight from 7-12 or so. I haven't preordered GW yet but WoW is starting to turn me off considering there is no content left til Battlegrounds (summer '05 :[ ) so i decided to start reading up on GW and ill be getting it soon .

I meant that I only get to play 1-3 nights a week because of other commitments like school and work. Plus, I play on the Azgalor server which has been having a lot of problems in the past few weeks. For example, I would be playing right now but it's down. Would have been playing last night, too, but it was down then, also.

Did for about 20 minutes, then found out that it wasn't any fun, and it didn't run well on my computer.

Maybe I just wasn't used to it, or maybe it's because I'm used to the Guild Wars controls, but it seemed that the game responded oddly to commands, and it was awkward to try and do basic things like talk to people. But Skizzle would know more than I would, so most likely he'll hit you with some knowledge that will blow my analysis away.

P.S. "Easter Egg Hunt" - find the hidden line I stole from the movie Dodgeball if you're bored and need to kill time...

No way to list all the games I've played... I'm an old fart...

The first video game I ever remember playing was pong in the early 70's when there were no personal computers... even before Atari or micro-soft existed and it was in some lab in the desert near Palayus, New Mexico. I think I was about 13 and the computer was the size of a small building with banks and banks of tape drives... it's kind of surreal when I think back to it, especially when you think about a palm pilot having more power than could ever be sucked out of that monstrosity....

Hmm... That kinda beggs the question of how old people are who play GW. In my old CS clan, I was one of the "older" guys, and I'm only 25. 0_o

The first game console I ever had was an Intellivision. I remember playing black jack and poker on that thing - it had these little control sleves you would put in the controler to tell you what button to press to do what. lol My dad would try to play this "kill the alien" game and he would jerk the controller around like it made him move faster. It didn't. :P

I play a lot of different games. The ones interesting to GW people would probably be Diablo 2, Dungeon Siege and Morrowind.
Morrowind is probably my favourite game of all time. (Monty Mole on C64 would run a close second though). Every few months I get back into it. (Morrowind, not Monty Mole). I even bought it twice! (The second time with the bundle with both expansions).
I don't have much experience in online gaming as I have a 56k connection and I abhor monthly fees, but I played Silent Death when it was in free Beta, Tribes 1 and Gunbound.

I go way back......
Played Star Wars X-Wing Fighters at the arcade had the highest score on the machine for months, I'm still very proud of that! Also had the Atari Pong then the Intellivision. Played paper D&D, then got an Atari 2600, played Sundog and Dungeon Master (both were great games which I wish someone would re-release) and Ultima.

Played some Nintendo, did all the Zeldas til the present and the first few Final Fantasies.
PlayStation2 - Dark Alliance I&II, Champions of Norrath and Gauntlet

Diablo both I and II (single player and online), Warcraft and Starcraft (single player), Ultima Online for 2 months, didn't like it. Sims 1 & 2. SimCity all 4.

And right now while waiting for GW to start Sacred (single player).

Started out with consoles and a huge fan of Sony ^_^

PS2 my favorites
GranTurismo, Devil May cry, Resident evil, Final Fantasy, Kindgom Hearts,
Metal Gear, Socom, Tekken

Then I became an addict to MMORPGs. The 1st was EverquestOnline Adventures followed by Final Fantasy 11. Hmm I think I lost 2 years of my life because of these 2 games. So addictive ... but luckily I manage to recover ^_^

Currently playing GranTurismo 4 and Socom 2 and soon Guildwars, if it will run on my laptop (O.o)
