I doubt this'll get as much attention as the music or reading threads, but I'm curious to see what games people here play when they're not riding/working/sleeping/etc. I'm into video games at the moment, but I'd like posts about any games being played. Cards, role-playing, board games, drinking games;)...whatever.

I'll go first!:D

Halo for Xbox - picked up the triple pack last weekend, but didn't get to play it 'til this weekend. I likey so far. Gonna try to hook up the Xbox Live and get some MP Halo 2 on with some friends.

Diablo II: Lord Of Destruction on the PC - Yeah, I know, it's old. Still fun to play, tho.

That's about it right now, really. I have a World Of Warcraft account, too, but haven't been playing lately. It sucks me in a little too deep, I think.

Hopefully, this will be a good thread to turn to for any bored peeps among us to get some time-wasting ideas.:)

I used to occasionaly play GTA 5, but the disks got scratched real easily and it no longer works. (I think because of all that compressed data). If the price ever comes down I'll buy another copy. I'm just not very much of a videogamer. What I do like is skeet shooting, not to be confused with a sex act.

A few nights ago I played NFL Blitz 2006 with a friend, and it's surprisingly fun, especially for a sports game. Other than that, KLAX (awesome speed/puzzle game from the Commodore 64 days), the Metal Gear series, Final Fantasy, and survival horror games.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein on PS/2

I'm in to the final major senario (I think) and only have a handfull of HP's left. Some badass mofo's on the other side that want to dust me. I see health and can't get to it <sigh>


Anyone have a good cheat to bring my health & armor up?

Ziggurat, you should check out KLAX if you like Tetris. It's sort of like Tetris gone 3D meets bubble-bobble...on crack.

I'm not much of a console gamer. Halo's the first I've played since, hmm, Monster Rancher 2, I think, on PS1.

I've never tried skeet shooting, but I'd like to. Need(yes, need, not want) to get a shotgun.

I *had* been playing Elder Scrolls III:Morrowind (on PC).....for the last year and a half or so. It's the BEST game I've EVER played!!!

I finally decided to go to another game and heard that Neverwinter Nights was similar and some say even better than Morrowind. I've completed the main compaign and am now working on the first espansion (Shadows of Undrentide).

NWN is a fun game and I enjoy it....but it is NO Morrowind believe you me!!

The next game in the ElderScrolls line is coming out soon (Oblivion) and I'm DYING to play it.....but I won't have the hardware capable and don't think I'll have the money to upgrade until next year.

Civ3. Finished Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic last week. Fun game that's very true to the Star Wars universe.

For console, any GTA game. Playing Liberty City Stories on the PSP right now. Mercenaries was good, but a little hard for me. I am stuck about half way through.

I like Scrabble, we use a travel edition due to the cat problem. Upwords is a good one to.
There is also one called RushHour, you move little cars back and forth on a grid in order to get one out of the gridlock. Good one person game.

Never tried the video game versions of Scrabble, but I really enjoy the board game. That RushHour game sounds kind of cool, Rev. I'll have to keep an eye out for it.

Do yourself a favor and get a Remington 870. I won't go off into details here because its quite off topic, but if you seriously are going to get a shotgun and need advice, feel free to send me a pm or something.

with my buddies it's:
Chess, Texas Hold'em, and Basketball (my hook shot will destroy you)

at home by my lonesome it's:
Battlefield 1942 & Battlefield Vietnam

I could go for a nice game of D&D right about now, though.

Nascar Racing 2003 Season Sim with the 2005-2006 cup updates and the Late Model Mod installed. This is the best stock car racing sim game out bar none. NR2003 Rocks!!! "Drive it like you stole it!"

When I'm feeling destructive I play Mech Warrior 3..... I love to blow stuff up in that game! :D

Well, Halo 2 was fun. Got killed a few dozen times in some matchmaking games. I'm guessing I should've actually played Halo 2 single-player before I jumped into multi-player. Ah, well, live and learn....

Time for a thread resurrection! I played a little TreadMarks (http://www.treadmarks.com) this past week(until I destroyed my joystick-the game one, not the other one). An old game, but it's lots of fun.
Set to play some more Halo 2 MP on Xbox Live tonight. Gonna see how many deaths I can rack up.;)

I just can't do video games anymore. At least not solo. At prior workplaces where we'd play on the network, they were cool. NO better way to relieve stress at work than 'killing' coworkers.

Wife & I play occasional backgammon; a buddy and I more occasionally play Chess.

Well, I got some Halo 2 in tonight. I sucked(as usual), but it was fun...and I even got a few kills.:)
