DominionsFAN,

Let me ask you something; Is it wierd to think of people over 25 doing ANYTHING?

Further, what do imagine your hobbies will be when you are 27 or 43?

When I get a chance to play on a PC, I go for Age of Wonders 2, Kohan: Ahriman's Gift, The War Engine, and when I have a whole lot of time to spend, SEIV Gold.
<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Another Mac user - yeah!

I am also glad that Dom II will be out for OS X - that Unix base paying off…

Escape Velocity: Nova is a pretty fun game - I haven't played it in quite a while though - now available for windoze too: www.ambrosiasw.com/games/evn

p.s. I like Nick Cave also.

I think that gaming has nothing to do with ages...If you like to play games, why should you stop?
I dont get it. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Well and good, kid http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif !
*old man rant on* Huuuh, at your age I played Squad Leader, but I thought that nowadays teens weren't able to play anything but console games and clickfest RTS ! *rant off* http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

I can adopt you as my nephew, but only if you stop trolling the Mod thread ! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif !

Well, along being 70% psychopat, 57% freak and migthy 9% "mass teenager"(and that is ultra low result...), i have same haristyle as they had in the 70's-80's and i listen to "realy old" music like Uriah Heep and Led Zeppelin. I also wear clothes that are "out".

Yes, i will accept this great honor of being your nephew. I haven't trolled the Mod thread for a while. In fact, i think i'll go and post something constructive there...
