Most played games

[St. Toxic]

Liero - A great little reliever of stress. Used to put together some city maps, put on some music in the background and play with my old buddy Geggs. ( 25% health, 300% loading time, 1 life ) I'd say it took away at least 2 hours every day, for 2 years. Eventiully me and Geggs were so good at it, we hosted a city tournament at my place. That was fun.

Elasto Mania - Same thing here, made my own "dm" maps, and drove around stealin' the flag from each other, or coop'in on single maps.

AQ2 - Nice city maps. Shotgun as weapon of choice, so I ran around alot, sneaking up on snipers.

Slayers - Whenever the other free mmog's we played back in the days were down, this was the stand in, and I guess, in the end, we played it more then any of the other ones. Heh.

Uo -

Fallouts - Yeah played it alot. Usually customized the char stats, and personality, after myself, so whenever I became more of an asshole irl ( steady +2 growth / year ) I played the game accordingly. I guess its one of the few games that lets me do that.

Rune - I liked it. There were alot of "The Huge Fucking Grassfield ala Mountanwalls" levels to it, and alot of 32 player servers. I guess Im partial to mele combat as well.

Gta1&2 - Yeah.

Settlers - I kind of like the 'indirect' strategy, and the whole idea of building an efficient community where nothing is missing. Majesty was pretty good at that too, but didnt have enough options and tweaks. Never got into Settlers 4 doh, there was some statue morale thing and alot of other bollocks.

Metal Slugs - Yeah, alot of fun in MP and great visuals.

Hah.

Mystical EDIT: Civ2: Tot was pretty awesome and timely. Music reminded me a bit of Fallout. Played it alot, I'm sure.

Secret EDIT: Oh right, forgot I had a snes back in the days. Im sure I wasted alot of time on the Donkey Kong games. Alot of fine music in DK2/DK3.

Strategic EDIT: Add to list: Full Throttle and the MI's. I love the adventure game approach ala "What if". All those interactive things that arent part of the main story thing, but just for a few gags and to reward innovative minds. And the dialogues ofcourse.

Can anyone spot some kind of pattern in my choice of games?

[Fez]

All the Lucas Arts adventure games, and some from others such as Revolution and Sierra. Grim Fandango is great.

You pick only good games. Some of us are into innovation, you know? Sellout.

So you're also an avid game-music hunter?

[Spazmo]

I beaten the SCUMM games more times than is healthy to the point that I know many of them by heart.

[boywoos]

Ever get around to playing Loom?

[Raymondo]

I thought Vice City sucked ass, totally disappointing.

....Car Wars.......

Woo! Go you!

As for me I don’t replay games that often, I just tend to finish them and let them waste away on my hard drive, I’ll maybe replay them in a month’s time if I’m bored.

[atoga]

Car Wars. Pimp Wars.

[St. Toxic]

Its true. On the other hand I've played inhumanly horrid games from time to time. In short periods ofcourse, but I think it puts me on par. Nay?

So you're also an avid game-music hunter?

You too? I guess music is one of the things that most easely sticks to the brain, and when remembering awesome gaming experiances ( especially getting that ph4t l00t in mmorpgs ) the thing you recall most of all is that stupid tune that was on the radio at the time, or the track of music that the game was equipped with. So when a game has music that's awful, that you have to force yourself into or turn off, its also much more incompatible with nostalgia, which is one of those things that gets you back into playing it, even after its outdated and dull.

[Subhuman]

The only two games that I can recall having really excellent music were FF7 and Chrono Cross. Like, good enough to pay a pharaoh's ransom for the import soundtracks.

[St. Toxic]

So so, I'd say. I wouldn't say its 'really excellent' but its really fucking sticky. I can probably hum 80% of those tunes, and I havent played either of those games for years.

[Antimeasure]

best musik? shenmue, kingdomhearts, ff 7, 9.. hmm, operation flashpoint

I play that game to much, ofp, when i hear something, anything, i get a flashback of what i did in ofp when i heard that tune, so for me, all the music in the world is related to operation flashpoint, and that goes for movies to.

[the guardian]

and Chrono Cross.

I stick to Chrono Trigger's music. Of course, they're made by the same artist, but I prefer CT over CC.

St.Toxic, I used to have a minidisk with a cable-recording option(I assume it has a better name, but I'm a bit of a layman). If I couldn't find a way to open the game up with a program and turn the music into recordable MP3s/WAVs/MIDI, I just connected the cable to the speakers, or any other sound source, and syphoned some memories. Kazaa also helped from time to time, and it's realy great to have a couple of old tunes to hear once in a while, seldomly adding one or two more to the list.

[boywoos]

Anyone know where I can 'acquire' Chrono Cross. Answers on a postcard plz [alternately a PM would suffice].

[Koki]

Just don't. Seriously. It's utter shit.

[MR Snake]

Elasto mania fucking sucks. Liero on the other hand is a game ive probably played more than any other game. If anyone wants a tournament let me know.

[Koki]

I hope you mean Liero PRO.

[Nicolai]

Bullshit, Elasto Mania was awesome.

[MR Snake]

I played the originall liero back in the day, and by the time liero multiplayer came out I had moved on.

Elasto mania was played by just about every guy in my class, its crap i tell you. Fucking weird gravity bike.

[St. Toxic]

Oh there there, MR Snake. I'm sure you just flipped your weird gravity bike one to many times. Don't blame the game for your lack of elasto skill, yo.

[the guardian]

I hope you mean Liero PRO.

I never heard of a Liero Pro. To my best knowledge the guy who made it disappeared and then someone made NIL. Got a link?
