Default Re: What other games do you people play?

I forgot to mention Air Command 3! The best games I've ever played were not the greatest graphic games around, BUT they did hold my interest for hours of enjoyable playing time. Not to mention very good AI programming.

I'm and old Avalon Hill Board Game player and really enjoyed some of their computer games (Flight Commander, Dreadnaught, Underfire) as well. I've also played SFB for years as you guys seem to be avid fans of Starfleet Command. I was given an evaluation copy of it by Steve Cole when we were negotiating Pinwheel Galaxy addition to SFB. I like the board game better. Maybe because the group I played with had a great social aspect.

I watch my niece play Wii and some of the games are just plain stupid, while the actual graphics are terrible. I think the gaming industry need to re-evaluate where it's going to go.(IMHO)

Every morning, or afternoon, I jump on and play Kingdom of Loathing http://www.kingdomofloathing.com/sta...p?id=whatiskol you only get a set number of turns a day, so it doesn't become an obsession. I used to play Diablo II, and I was looking forward to Diablo III, but I don't think I'm going to let myself get sucked into that. I may try Linux, again, and I'll work on getting SE4 to run under Wine. Outside of that, I tend to hit up Jayisgames http://jayisgames.com/ to see what short Flash game I can amuse myself with for a short time.
