[Harry Pierpont]

OK, ok, even at my age

The Call of Duty series and the Medal of Honor series on the PC. Currently playing MOH Airborne.

 

[Twitch]

My favorite that still runs on XP is Comandos II from Eidos. It's a great RTS set in WW II. Should be able to find it on Ebay cheap now.

 

[Josephine]

Xeen
Webkinz
SimCity (the original)

 

[Maj.Nick Danger]

The Brothers in Arms games are my favorites, as well as Call of Duty, some of the versions of Tomb Raider. Still trying to get the hang of flying in Secret Weapons over Normandy. Maybe it's best I don't,..I might end up addicted.

 

[RIOT]

I play Texas Hold'Em online like there's no tomorrow. Does that count?

Also some COD4.

 

[Helen Troy]

Ok, my favourites:

Computer games:
Old adventure games from Sierra and LucasArt. My all-time favourites are "Day of the Tenatacle", "Grim Fandango" and the "Monkey Island"series.

Board games:
Junta
Cults across America (Anybody else tried this two?)
Settlers of Catan
Carcassonne
Trivial Pursuit

Role Playing Games:
Call of Chutulhu

[Josephine]

Speaking of old games, I used to play Leisure Suit Larry. lol

 

[Socrets]

RTS
Command and Conquer: Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge
Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars
Imperial Glory
StarCraft (Original and Brood War)
Company of Heroes (when I configure Boot Camp)


FPS
Half-Life 2 (as soon as I get boot camp working)
Half-Life: Opposing Force
Half-Life: Blue Shift
Quake
Quake II
TIE Fighter

[RPG]
Mass Effect (X-Box)
Knights of the Old Republic
Knights of the Old Republic: Sith Lords

To be honest, I haven't played much as of late (academic work and real life really get in the way). Plus, there are only so many games that can run on a mac. Guess it's time to configure Boot Camp.

P.S.
This is only the tip of the iceberg...

Ok, my favourites:

Games?

I am a pathetic little panda, but I'm addicted to..

World of Warcrack

Yea, I know.

Slightly more vintage, I'm a cribbage addict and play 5 days a week at lunch. Call of Cthulhu was a favorite back in my TT days, and I own the original box set D&D (not AD&D).

I don't play video games often at all, but I really like the Call Of Duty, Medal Of Honor, and Madden games for when I do play.

My parent's wouldn't allow me to play that, because of the "adult" theme. (Which, by the way, really is innocent as far as I understand.) They played it themself when we were asleep.
