Re: OT: Game You Bought
I really like Rise of Nations. It is a real time game, but it is not quite a RTS game. It is hard to explain, and the demo is 170 MBs.  |

Ever? This is my usual experience. But then, since I've been playing games since the Atari 2600 (and still play the best games, not the newest), my standards are pretty high. Actually though, I guess really I usually figure out a game isn't going to be fun for me before I actually buy it, so I don't
Recent extreme cases:
Stronghold (egad, so much effort, and many good ideas, but utterly disappointing in execution [a few good points, but all undermined by the bad])
Silent Hunter II (Aces of the Deep is still better in most ways that matter)

Re: OT: Game You Bought
I guess I'm an old fart...I find something I like and I play it to death. When I had beaten MOO 2 every which way to summer, I put it away and went on a search. I can't even remember the names but I purchased about 3 games, I think. What a waste! Then I found SE 4. Thank goodness for the HappyPuppy site (that helped steer me in the right direction to SE 4).
