Default Re: Finding time to play....

As for myself finding time, I'm jobhunting and taking care of my infant son, so I have too much time to play.

I split up my gaming by platform. The PC I use for strategy games, my PS2 I use for RPGs, and I use tabletops for 'cooperative' play (P&P RPGs). I actually sort of wish we didn't have cable where we are, because I'd get more stuff done that I need to get done...

Ah well.

Scott

Isn't it a bit hard to be Online without cable? If it's such a big problem, why not just switch to DSL?

Family and job and friends make finding time tough for me. Also, I should be doing a LOT of research, but I havent, and that sucks. I will probably have to quit Dom2 at some point because of this.

It would be nice if they had a 'new turn' noise/alarm for MP games. When all the turns are in and the host is done processing a nice 'brunnng' or something.

People playing.. cough.. at the workplace will have the sound off anyway and the game window minimized most of the time (hopefully!).

I have cable but only use it for Internet. The cable company in my area has no problem charging me for just the internet service.
