evetsneerg Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Runescape now that is old school, haven't played that for many years but have wasted a lot of time playing that game in the past. Mine, mine, smelt, mine mine, chop, chop, fire, chop, chop. Was how alot of my time was spent lol. Only games I really play now are football manager and minecraft although I try not to play that cos I just never go to bed when I do and up to stupid hours doing stuff that is pointless when I should be sleeping.

Glorian Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 Heh minecraft Havn't played that in aaaaaaages! And gave up on ToR found it to clunky ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Don't play runescape that much any more :/ they changed it far to much and can't get used to it The old republic is awesome just got to Darth status feel awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evetsneerg Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Not played the old republic, take it it would be worth getting then? I do love and am abit of a geek when it comes to anything star wars, startrek, stargate so probably my sort of game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glorian Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 I played ToR, found it awkward, WoW even in its starter stage was easy to play figure out where to go and how to get there (i know starwars is different planets etc) it's to hard to navigate on ToR theres warpoints and crap that sohuld all link together but find you're running around endlessly. the space ship is a cool feature but would be better if you could fly around randomly on it between planets maybe get attacked by pirates, instead of doing these battles where you are stuck on a pre-chosen course and have to fight off weak enemies. COmbat is jerky and delayed and i find it overly tricky again i found it easier and more fun on WoW not that i play either anymore as it's full of 5 year olds calling me "n00b" for not having "1337" raid gear So i stick to strategy games, and the ocasional shooter. Roll on battlefront 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evetsneerg Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Yea strategy games are my all time favorites, can't beat abit of C&C, used to love tiberian sun when that came out. If they could redo a classic like that I would probably never get off it. Age of empires was another good one although it was always to tempting to get a couple of cheats on the go and cruise around in a black car destroying everything lol.

GazzyG Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I used to be a huge PC gamer. Q3A. Unreal. WoW from the off until Lich King came out. Used to be always playing Starcraft/Red Alert/Total Annihilation through my teens, too.More of a console gamer nowadays, though.Though saying that, I still have most of my old collection sitting on the shelf right next to me.Tada:http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/2639/un20.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zod Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Used to play c&c a lot, Tiberium Sun, RA2 and Generals/ZH though don't bother with them anymore. I play Wolf ET more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XmisterIS Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 The last computer game I played was Wipeout 2097. I expect it was made before some of you were even born ...Nowadays, I have no time or inclination to play computer games, I'd rather be out on the bike!

Glorian Posted November 20, 2013 Author Share Posted November 20, 2013 C&C generals was one of my all time favourites. So many missions and the challenge mode was awesome (Shame you don't fight ALL the generals) zero hours units and generals really diversified the gameplay, still loved superweapon general for the anti any vehicle turret (Emp lul) and the aurora bomber that can't be hit on its approach with a fuel air bomb 4 of those and you're golden. I'm gonna install that later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the first Wipeout, the one before it, on the Playstation though. Was one of my first console games. Must've been about 1995-96?

I remember I used to get so enraged with it when I would *almost* get a perfect run, then ding the side right at the end - used to drive me nuts!Another question is what was the first computer game you ever played ... I vaguely remember being too young to play Pong on the BBC Micro back in about 1980 ... it must have been Pong because that's all there was in those days! Our primary school had one, single computer, which probably cost the equivalent of an entire school computer lab nowadays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RantMachine Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I still get on TF2 every once in a while, although lately I've been glued to the Xbox playing GTA online with Fozzie. Life imitates art, as I crash when I ride with him in the game just like I did when we were out last Saturday One of my old friends keeps nagging me to get back into Sins of a Solar Empire, which is insanely complicated as RTS goes but also rather fun for the spacefaring aircraft carriers and intergalactic nuclear rocket launchers.First computer game I ever played was Cairo Shootout on the original Macintosh http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ID1NKqROe_4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
