Question for PCF June

Jonboy · Post by **Jonboy** » 16 Apr 2009, 07:23

Of all the PC games I've played, only Half-life, Starcraft, Diablo II and more recently, Fallout 3, have managed to hook me to the point where I sit lost in the game world for hours, only to emerge at 2am with shock at the lateness of the hour. A game only has me hooked when it removes the need for eat and sleep.

I remember playing the first Half-life for hours and hours on my old Pentium 133. That game just had the right balance of action and puzzles. I loved the corridors. At the moment, Fallout 3 definitely has me hooked, except for the occasional "one-too-many" supermutants to kill. Nothing a flamer can't fix though, lol.

I have two. I will most probably still be playing Counter Strike when I'm 80 and can't walk or skate anymore. The second is Uplink. I don't actively play that game all the time, but at LEAST twice or three times a year, I install it again and play it. Greatest. Game. Evar.

I play Fifa Manager 08 a lot( sometimes 40 hours a week). I always find something to improve in the game like making the 3d match more realistic. Other games I enjoy are KOTOR1, Age of Mythology and Oblivion. Other games I like are all on console. I used to play command & conquer: Generals and Zero hour a lot.

fallout 3 has me hooked, it gets boring, but then you see something new you havent yet, or you level up and gain new interesting perks, then you hooked again. Its defenitely a game you must stick out till it gets interesting and the enclave comes into play.

other than that, H.A.W.X isnt 2 bad defenitely needs a joystick and it gives you some thrills when you miss crash landing by a few meters, im loving c&c red alert 3 uprising, the new units just make the game n how it should have been from the start.

UrBaN, for me, this is working...

Stuart, It's supposed to look like that. Kinda... my tribute to the end of the world.

I can't claim credit for the blood effects, just the sig edit.

please do not stay on topic in this thread

(seriously, though, your reply's about three days too late. the question is already past its sell-by date.)
