von_paulus 0 Posted July 7, 2009 In chronological order (I think) the games I spent the most time playing and enjoying: Elite - (on my mate's BBC model B - I couldn't afford one) the dawn of pseudo 3d vector graphics Dungeon Master - (on the Atari ST) utterly addictive role-playing for it's time I tought I was alone on those two. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Dawg KS 6 Posted July 7, 2009 (edited) How come nobody mentioned the original Tomb Raider series? Good stuff. Also, Super Mario World... spent (and still spend sometimes) many hours on this growing up. Half-Life and HL Mods were always good. Another favorite of mine is Bushido Blade 2. It took forver to unlock all the characters and I'm so sad now that my old roomate took my original PS1 and games... And obviously OFP:R.

rumrunner 10 Posted July 8, 2009 My favs in no particular order: Fallout X-com OFP + Resistance Arma Ultima VII X-wing Planetside (nothing yet has matched the unbelievably massive scope in those early days before that 1st expansion came out and ruined it) Deus Ex System Shock 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 10 Posted July 8, 2009 Well, it's D&D Forgotten Realms setting after all :DI gotta agree that in ToB you were practically a demi-god near the end but then, I liked it because it properly ended that bhaalspawn saga. But hell, the interjections, banters, romances, NPCs, soundtrack and story were a movie quality in BG2 :) EDIT: methinks I sound a bit like a nerd after writing all this stuff :lookaround: Don't know, I had the feeling that the whole setting more resembled Al-Qadim with all this oriental stuff (plus the trip to Planescape in the tavern with those freaky bards). Sure the romances and all this stuff was quite nice, but nothing beats the hunt for Sarevok and the ultimate encounter in BG1 :p In fact, I only beat BG2 + ToB once, while BG1 + TotSC over 10 times (including on LAN with friends) :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathstruck 375 Posted July 8, 2009 In fact, I only beat BG2 + ToB once, while BG1 + TotSC over 10 times (including on LAN with friends) :D K mate, we both have different opinions then ;) BTW: http://ballukas.deviantart.com/ Be sure to check this out, this guy's project (BG comics) looks kinda nice :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 10 Posted July 9, 2009 Well my friends liked the epic stuff of BG2 more than me, so I'm in the minority but wth :D The comic indeed looks nice. Do you know about the official one published before BG release? It's free to download, check this site http://www.candlekeep.com/bookshelf/novels/21525.htm Just click on the comic link to DL. The resolution is a bit low and the dialogs are kinda hard to read but still a neat piece of art :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are those hideous novels by Phil Athans who utterly destroyed BG in his books :eek: About the comics: what the hell ? I didn't even know about them ! Where did you come across them ? And why does Kivan have Coran's face tattoo O_o Edited July 9, 2009 by Salvatore_Lee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where did you come across them ? And why does Kivan have Coran's face tattoo O_o Yeah, i read some reviews about Athans masterpieces of trash. I never dared to read those books :D The comic is classic though, I stumbled across it years ago on the web, but just the same shitty resolution, never saw the original print. It might have been issued as a free gift at some RPG and tabletop stores to advertise the upcoming BG, but I'm not quite sure... About the tattoo... I have no frigging idea :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nanthaka 10 Posted July 9, 2009 (edited) Operation Flashpoint, Nuff said Planetside, Twitch and tactical game play that caters for any playstyle and the biggest online battles ever, with 399 players on one map, buggy as hell though. Team Fortress 2, Twitch heaven Tribes 2, ctf has never been so frantic Red Orchestra, Condensed tactical gunfights, on par with ofp for infantry combat imo Galactic Conquest - Mod for BF1942, Amazing Star Wars mod that just focused on the grunts (no jedi) truly epic vehicular combat Gauntlet, the original coop game slaughtering monsters in a 2d top down view. You could last forever on one credit and have the machine switched off on you, come closing time in the arcade. Edited July 9, 2009 by Nanthaka Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
