Default Re: What Games do you own?

In no particular order:

- Freespace
- Freespace 2
- I-War 2
- Thief 1
- Thief 2
- Deus Ex
- Heretic 2
- Conquest of the New World (standard Version)
- Constructor
- Capitalism 1 and 2 (don't ask)
- Outpost (the most boring game I have ever played)
- Outpost 2 (definitively better, and a quite good novel with the game. The game in itself isn't the best of the world though)
- Imperium Galactica 2
- Age of Empires 1
- Age of Empires 2 (I cannot say I did like those)
- Total Annihilation (one of the few RTS I actually enjoyed)
- Heroes of Might and Magic III
- Some platforms games (Pandemonium, Rayman, and a few for my old Amiga)
- Planescape Torment (one of my favourite games on this list)
- Baldur's Gate 2
- Day of the Tentacle
- Under a Killing Moon (I wish I had the other games in the series, or I could make this one work )
- Fallout 2
- Riddle of Master Lu
- Zork: Grand Inquisitor
- Twinsen's Odyssey 2 (Little Big Adventure in other countries)
- The Nomad Soul (aka Omikron)
- Some racing games here and there.
- Not to mention older Amiga games

As you can see, I don't have that much games and they are usually a few years old. I tend to prefer free games now (Angband comes immediately to my mind) or Online RPG, and SEIV destroyed any need for other games.

There isn't enough space to list all the games I have. I've been an avid wargamer since 7th grade and have way over 600+ games both board and computer. (includes those for Atari & Commodore)
I also used to collect Chess sets and have 11 of those as well.

But I will list some of the games I have for the computer and leave out board games for now

Duke Nukem 1 & 2
Master of Orion 1,2,3
Empire
Empire Delux
Shogun
Shogun Mongol Invasion
Medieval total war
Medieval Viking Invasion
Diablo 1,2
Europa Universalis 1,2
All kinds of Civil War games, Antietam, Bull Run etc
Pac War
Hearts of Iron
Quake, all of them & expansioins
Starcraft plus all expansions
Civ 1,2,3 plus expansions
Heros Might & Magic IV
plus numerous others

just some ideas Mac

Haven't thought of that one in a while, but yeah, that game had a fantastic story and world didn't it? I wish Bioware would make more games like this.

Yes, the universe is impressive, if you do like a bit weird universes that is. My only complaint about this game is its poor translation, as usual since Interplay was responsible. I wish you could still choose your language when avoiding these awful translations. But I digress.

Alneyan, you said you liked Online RPGs ? Try this one (text-based) :

Achaea

It's entirely free if (like me) you're short on cash, but if you want to you can pay to give your character a boost. It's also the main reason why I haven't been updating my War for the Stars story.

Yes, I used to play this game Erax. At any rate thanks for the link, if anyone is interested here.

A great free RPG if you can stand text-based games, and with a convenient interface. (I have to admit I still have a lot of problems with the interfaces of, say, Nethack or Angband.) And the tutorial is impressive, so even if you are completely new, you may want to give it a try.

Hmm... I should resume playing this game, really. Out of idle curiosity, of what class is your character Erax?

Not that I have time to play most of these games (I do have a 2 year old), but here's a short list that I can come up from memory, since I"m at work and I have quite a few games in storage:

Civ 3 & Civ 3: Play the World
Baldur's Gate I & II and the expansion games
Sim City 3, 3000 Unlimited & 4
Railroad Tycoon 2 Platinum
SEIV Gold (naturally)
Star Fury
The War Engine
Hearts of Iron
Alpha Centauri & expansion disc
War of the Worlds
Diablo & Diablo II and the expansion discs
Might & Magic 4
Neverwinter Nights
Morrowind III
Panzer General II
Runesword II
Galactic Civlizations
Master Of Orion II
Rollercoaster Tycoon I & II plus the expansion discs
The Sims
Rails Across America
Microsoft Train Simulator
America

There are more, but that's all I can come up with now.
