Ports of Call. Dang now that brings back memories. Thats was a great game. We used to have a shop here where you could rent software and one weekend I gave that a try. Ended up buying it. Great game.

Favorite games eh? Well let me walk down memory lane..

1) Space Empires IV (current champ)
2) Master of Orion II
3) Ultimate Civilization (the one you could mod )
4) Diablo I/II (II needs better graphics/dungeons though, they were better in I)
5) Alpha Centauri
6) Baldurs Gate I/II/Icewind Dale etc.
7) Raid on Bungling Bay (c-64 )
8) Curse of the Azure Bonds (c-64)
9) Bards Tale I/II
10) Sinistar !!!!!(I LIVE! I HUNGER! RUN RUN!)

Ones that didn't make it but are still damn good: Birth of the Federation (too easy, Borg to damn hard), Master of Orion I (fond memories!), Civ I(the classic), Warlords II, Bandit Kingdoms of Ancient China (Nintendo), Romance of The Three Kingdoms IV (PS), and Ultima IV. oh yeah and Phantasy I, II, III for the C-64.

MOM
HOMMIII
Half-Life / Counter-Strike
Civilization
Steel Panthers

I love SEIV, but it just doesn't make my top 5 list... please don't hurt me!

Leoric - I remember Defender OT Crown on the Amiga... brilliant game. Glorious graphics (at the time, anyway.)

I didn't realise we were going all the way back to the C64... anyone remember these:

Hades Nebula - perfectly balanced scrolling shoot 'em up.

RimRunner (I think) Something about giant lizards and ant people. Remember it being very very good.

Alien (C64 Version) - The game of the film - So scary I was afraid to play it on my own. (I was only a kid )

I can´t say that I have played that Version of ALIEN.

The reason why I´m going back to C64 and AMIGA is that there were more dept in the games than it is now.

Now days they are going for grafics only. It is a waste of my time and money.

Top Three computer games:

1. TOTAL ANNIHILATION (CaveDog)

2. KOHAN: IMMORTAL SOVEREIGNS (TimeGate)

3. SPACE EMPIRES IV

Anyone who looks at that list ought to figure out very quickly why I think tcp/ip play for SE4 ought to be the first priority.
