1- SEIV (duh...)
2- Hong Kong Mah Jong (9 dragons software)
3- Zangband
4- Alien Crossfire
5- ??? (too much time on SEIV)

Most of my truly perennial games are shareware: I have not a lot of luck with enjoying most 'pop' games. The other reason is I play my games mostly in hotel rooms while I travel, and I do not have a CD drive on my laptop...

Re: Top 5 Games You Play
 

Hmm. I'd have to say:

-SE4
-ST: Armada (not really stable, but fun with my realistic Borg mod & miscellaneous small fixes)
-AOE
-Gladiator (Cross between Gauntlet & FinalFantasy)
-Nick's SpaceWar (My own Really fancy Asteroids game)

Neat thing with writing your own game is that you can add all kinds of features:
eg:
- White "space background" toggle, so it looks like notepad work at first.
- Pause + Total invisibility for "x" seconds after emergency button is pressed (no taskbar, no tray icon - totally invisible & can't be restored until the time is up http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif)
- Automatically scales shield rendering detail to computer speed http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Top 5 Games You Play
 

I only play 2 games:
SEiv
Including working on files for this game.

and an Online turn based game called Earth2025
I lead a clan called TALON including maintaining the clan web site.

Between the two, and work I have no time for any other games.

Re: Top 5 Games You Play
 

SE4
SMAC
not much else (pretty boring ain't I...)

EDIT: Dracus - Been looking at Earth2025. Is it any good? (Must be if that's the only other game your playing). If this forum isn't appropriate, maybe you can E me at lindadouglass@cybertours.com

Re: Top 5 Games You Play
 

I really enjoy SE IV, but I seldom have anytime to play it and when I do, I'm usually making my mod or shipset or website or something!

(See post "I never actually play")

Games I enjoy are SE IV, Sim City, NHL Hockey, Baseball Simulator 1.000...
