Cetshwayo Veto. Veto Corp	Posted - 2009.03.31 02:44:00 - [31] Originally by: Suction Aspiration I'd go for Dungeon Siege, awesome RPG game, and you got a mule that tries to kick the crap outta your enemies. Can't beat that! Haha I remember that game. Spent waaaay too many hours with friends in multiplayer doing the "chicken run."

Arvald Caldari Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2009.03.31 03:40:00 - [33] Ive been hooked on mount and blade recently, its a midevil rpg where you build up huge armys ( mine is currently 300 strong) and basically go and conqure all the other kingdoms in the game or do whatever the hell you want, and im not going to try and explain it from there so here are some videos =D Cavalry absolutely owning an infantry regiment Castle seige Geneal combat More combat i cant seem to find a video that shows the traveling mechanic of the game but basically its a map view and you see your party and navigate by point and click in real time, its a fairly simple game but hella fun. i recommend the vannila expansion mod as it adds alot of new content ok but seriously, next person that derails my thread gets a railroad spike shoved through their neck

Anyura	Posted - 2009.03.31 09:03:00 - [39] World of Goo. One of the greatest and cheapest puzzle games money can buy: * Reveal the mystery of the Sign Painter! * Meet different species of Gooball! * Drive yourself insane with OCD mode (and I swear some of them are impossible -.- )! * Create weird sculptures of Goo! Seriously, it is an awesome game and well worth trying for something different.

RichtigesPortraitFuerTyr	Posted - 2009.03.31 09:50:00 - [41] Edited by: RichtigesPortraitFuerTyr on 31/03/2009 09:54:27 Edited by: RichtigesPortraitFuerTyr on 31/03/2009 09:53:26 Originally by: Jonny 101 I'm a bit bored, now my problem is that I am...a grumpy old bastard when it comes to games, basicly i'm looking for something to kill time, some game I can bury myself in for a few days and forget time, the universe and everything, mainly an offline singleplayer game but I won't say no to a brilliant mmo/multiplayer suggestion. As mentioned in the topic, I will pay 100 million isk to whoever suggests a game I end up going gaga for (PC). Games I enjoy/have enjoyed include: Total War series (though not so fond of Empire. Hitman Series Dungeon Keeper Mount and Blade Baldurs Gate Arcanum of steamworks and arcana or wth it's called Elder Scrolls Call of Duty series Operation Flashpoint The Typing of the Dead etc Anyway, blast off with suggestions, i'll probably have tried and not liked 90% of your suggestions, but the worst that can happen is that you win 100m. Oh, if I get two suggestions I frikkin dig i'll pay 100m to each (or 200m to one person). So get spamming, you can list as many games as you like but it'll be positive if you add a link or small synopsis for the games you list. If you do enjoy hardcore stragey games (something upwards from the Total War series), I recommend Hearts of Iron II (WWII), Victoria Universalis (1830-1930), Europa Universalis (1430-1800) or Crusader Kings (1066-1400). They're all created by Paradox Interactive. Another great tactical game is World in Conflict, or Battleforge (just released, both rely heavy on multiplayer but WIC has just gotten an equally awesome Soviet campaign). If you're searching for yet another space-fyling experience (but a far more arcade one thatn EVE), why not try Freelancer? As for RPG, I recommend anything from Bioware (Neverwinter Nights [Fantasy], Mass Effect [Sci-fi], Knights Of The Old Republic [Star Wars]). A good shooter will be difficult to get atm, maybe the new Call of Duty (which is said to be excellent again, even though its WWII - again. But this time, in the pacific). Or maybe the all-time favourite and hyped GTA 4? Edit: Just read you liked Operation Flashpoint. It'll take some time until release yet, but be aware that Operation Flashpoint 2 + Arma2 are going to be released end of this/beginning of next year.
Akita T Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2009.03.31 11:00:00 - [42] I should maim you all for not suggesting it yet... MASTER OF ORION II : BATTLE AT ANTARES The funny thing is, if you download the "demo" version, install it, then take the OFFICIAL patch from Atari itself and unzip it over the demo, you get the full game (minus some movies, but who cares), and it's a TINY download by today's standards. _ Create a character \|\| Fit a ship \|\| Get some ISK

Captator Yakuza Corp	Posted - 2009.03.31 12:42:00 - [44] Haven't been many games last year that I actually bought after trying having said that, I have started playing a few free games, the best of which is probably quite old: Dwarf Fortress The basic premise is you building defending and managing a fortress under a mountain (or plain, depends where you start ) in a generated world. Think a cross between stronghold (you fend of growing sieges and wild animals), sim city (city management, including an optional full money based economy in the later game) and the sims, as unhappy dwarves can go into a variety of strange moods, including the macabre, where they butcher another dwarf and become a legendary craftsman by making something from their bones . You can get the game here: Dwarf Fortress with added graphics tileset for easier/prettier play 2 other essential links: Dwarf Fortress Wiki (Believe me this one is invaluable) Dwarf Fortress video tutorial series (Watch first 3 or so before starting, then watch as you need, alternatively, just get stuck in and learn through sweat and tears ) Water pressure is modelled properly, so don't dig into the bottom of a river bed from below (or for that matter, a lava pool ). It also includes pumps and pressure plates for traps and other devices (one of the guys on coldfront IRC built an 8-bit computer using these, and Entity has built a set of water-powered repeating-action spear traps). A last warning, ware the catsplosion . The game also has 2 other RPG like modes, one where you go around accepting quests and conquering with a growing party, the other where you go around a world exploring in a more archaeological manner.
Forando Interstellar Cowards	Posted - 2009.03.31 13:25:00 - [45] What?! No one mentioned ProgressQuest yet?! ProgressQuest Fantasy Online RPG. Solid Free-for-All PvP gameplay. Good leveling system and follows the "Easy to get into, but difficult to master". You'll be battling online against a lot of other players on ladders. For all your meta-gaming needs, you're allowed to run more accounts also. And I've yet to hear about someone getting banned for scamming. And, did I mention it's FREE?! The client can be a bit fruity at times. It leaves very little memory footprint, but yet it gets low frames per second at times. It's far from gamebreaking though. Enjoy, and fly safe..
Lawl Clistina	Posted - 2009.03.31 14:04:00 - [46] Edited by: Lawl Clistina on 31/03/2009 14:04:35 i like farcry2 for blowing up stuff - ride through the land and shoot at whatever you come across just for lulz (usually keeps me entertained for a hour when spinning a ship in hangar doesn't help) then battlefield2 as the classic multiplayer fps for longer sessions hmm, what else, maybe crysis for its visuals and story - one of the best singleplayer fps and one of the few ones i had patience to finish.
Doomed Predator The Graduates Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2009.03.31 14:58:00 - [47] Edited by: Doomed Predator on 31/03/2009 15:03:11 Sins of a Solar empire World of Goo Prince of Persia(Sands of Time+Warrior Within+The two thrones) also the new one Project IGI(don't play the sequel) Commandos 1 and 2 Rise of Legends Rise of Nations Age of Empires 2 Edit: How could I forget Freelancer The 'Fendahlian Collective' strikes again

Have some courtecy arvald! Keep the suggestions coming, yes I really have tried damn near everything mentioned so far, the rest i've looked up and meh. Mount and blade rocks btw, can't wait for the multiplayer expansion. whos your buddy ^_^ oh and not sur if its been suggested yet but sins of a solar empire, cant beat a game where even teh shortest matches last atleast 5 hours =P (and the logest ive done was 6 days, almost 1000 planets on the map 0_o) ok but seriously, next person that derails my thread gets a railroad spike shoved through their neck
zombiedeadhead Minmatar Brutor tribe	Posted - 2009.03.31 16:12:00 - [49] Silent Hunter 3, you play as a U-Boat commander, hunting convoys, its redicoulously hard, and frustrating, you can play for hours and never find a thing, but when you get your sights trained on a nice fat tanker, and the Mine sweepers sart closing in, its adrenaline pumping stuff
Niamo Higate	Posted - 2009.03.31 16:12:00 - [50] Audio surf is a great game to kill time. ...well if you use steam. http://www.audio-surf.com/
Korrakas Caldari Legion of Ascension Beyond Ascension	Posted - 2009.03.31 17:45:00 - [51] The Witcher (with the expansion)
Erlenmeijer	Posted - 2009.03.31 18:39:00 - [52] Sid's Alpha Centauri... Find myself playing it every once in a while. Awesome game :)
Lance Fighter Amarr	Posted - 2009.03.31 20:26:00 - [53] lets see... People have mentioned TA or supcom, so ill skip those. Instead, go find a more open version: The Spring project. Think TA, but with player-made units/stuff instead. Unfortunatly, its mainly multiplayer... Although the 'chicken defense' games can be done singleplayer... For offline, you may want to look into x series: x-Beyond the Frontier/x2:The Threat/ X3: Reunion, and then X3 Terran Conflict. The storyline isnt exactly amazing (ive only really liked the story from x2tt/x3r), but it does give you the feel of a huge universe waiting for you to explore it. At least the first time you play... The second time, pick a different start, and play from the view of an assassin... Or tradesman, or station manager... It offers TONS of replayability, which seems to be what you are interested in from your OP. As well, there is this one internet spaceships game, some MMO... damn, cant remember the name. Something about adam? No, that cant be right... Originally by: Akita T Seriously ? ...wow... I'm such a forum ho' !

Levizzenvivious	Posted - 2009.04.01 11:52:00 - [55] My two cents: The Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War series, especially DoW2. Singleplayer campaign is a bit meh, but online mp is pure fast-paced RTS awesomeness. Max Payne 1 and 2. Shooting bad guys in the face bullet time-style never gets old
Jonny 101 Endemic Aggression Exalted.

I thought it was just some space rts, elaborate! As for my inactivity in the thread atm, I decided to give "native expansion" mod for mount and blade another go and its got me hooked for a little while (to those who mentioned mount and blade, if you look at the OP you'll find I beat you all to it and thus i'm awarding THAT 100m to myself). Anyway, someone pop into detail on sins of a solar empir eand this stuff arvald's talking about, if I end up getting hooked on that i'll toss out isk to the first person who suggested it and whoever gives the best explanation of what the hell all this 1.000 planets on the map business is all about. After all it's a "long walk" to the "store" my "energy" ratio will take a hit and it'll take me like two hours to "walk" to the "store" wink wink nudge nudge
Epegi Givo Amarr Ministry of War	Posted - 2009.04.02 06:01:00 - [57] How it works is like a Space RTS, that can span over systems. Every planet is its own little battlefield, and you have to destroy all enemy planets to win. Now sometimes there can get to be tons over tons of planets. The most I have ever seen is 500 but there are custom maps that can technically get infinitely large. It is fun because it isn't just going around killing things, there is some minor politics with the AI, or actual politics if you are playing with other players. another key point of the game is saving online games, so those long games can be continued. It is a pretty fun game, and would recommend it. And there is not many things more fun than watching your fleet fire huge missiles at the residents of some poor-unsuspecting planet. Some of those explosions can get about the size of a continent. ------------------------------------- My other alt is a Ferrari
Jonny 101 Endemic Aggression Exalted.	Posted - 2009.04.02 20:26:00 - [58] I'll be logging in to award Arvald with 100m for getting me interested in sins of a solar empire, I know other people mentioned it before him, but i'd already played the first bit of the tutorial and quit when I thought it was just another space rts. As mentioned in the post, gief synopsis, arvald introduced me to the features I like about the game so he wins the pot. However, i'm not low on isk yet so i'll keep the 100m prize up for whoever can find me another game to get hooked on (no harm in planning ahead).
Asuka Smith Gallente StarHunt	Posted - 2009.04.03 00:28:00 - [59] Mechwarrior 4 (We should all start playing that again, it was great fun when I got the EVE crew into it before. I have the .ISO for MW4 mercenaries so if you want to play then EVEmail me your MSN/Gtalk name and I will provide it)
Quantar Raalsken Gallente	Posted - 2009.04.03 01:49:00 - [60] Edited by: Quantar Raalsken on 03/04/2009 01:56:53 The Homeworld Series is a MUST if not Cataclysm then at least HW1 and 2 they give the cut scenes by doing black and white animation which ads quite a nice element to the story plus HW is what INSPIRED Sins of a Soloar Empire (Sins was said to be the RTS that Homeworld fans have been waiting for...imo in think HW3 is) here is the opening and here is the trailer hope i dont stupid if u already played it also try Red Alert 3 Uprising i was in the beta for RA3 and its lots of fun i just havent had the time to get to it my self try to beat ur times the commander's challenge and they have Ric Flair in there i can almost guarantee that ull have fun firing bears out of the man cannon here u can see most of the units in the game (BTW the bull frog has the man cannon) ================================================ GENERATION 22: The first time you see this, copy it into your sig on any forum and add 1 to the generation.
