Civilization and Football manager games (of which there are several titles) always took up the most of my gaming time.

Right now, I'm having a gaming Renaissance on the iPhone (on which Civilization is again my favorite title) after years of not playing at all. It's the most fun I've had in gaming since I was a kid.

I have to say I love a lot of simulation/world type games and have recently started enjoying RPG type games. One I keep going back to a lot is Roller Coaster Tycoon and it's various add ons. For some reason I just love designing new parks and being able to be creative with the themes.

Can you torture your virtual theme park clientele by blocking all of the park's restrooms or removing them from the park or designing roller coasters that are too extreme? Inquiring minds need to know!

I love this arcade game on webkinz - Eager Beaver Adventure Park

I've completed the entire game and won tropheys for both my daughters' little creatures.

Oh yes oh yes! You can create your own roller coasters and test them. You can remove parts of the track so the roller coaster cars crash and burn with the little people on them. Hehe. If you don't hire enough handymen to keep the park clean, the bathrooms get all stinky and then people begin pukeing all over. Of course they cause your park's popularity to decrease thus you lose profits but it's high satisfying especially since you can save it whenever you want

Zoo tycoon was pretty fun too (same sort of idea) I think I had too much fun removing a piece of fence from the big cat enclosures. :evil grin: The kitties would run out and grab people and shake them about. Nothing like watching all of the peeps run out of the zoo in horror.

Same here bro, I love the games so much, so damn good, try the unofficial expansion The Darkest Hour.

Anyway Bioware is no longer n business, it was defund already.

I keep waiting for a games similiar to the Baldur's gate series but there were none in existing.........

My kind of gamer! I used to torture my sims characters I didn't like when I ... muahaahaahaa
mwahaahaahaa
mooooohaahaahaa!

Has anyone played Sims 3? I want to see if it's worth it. I loved playing Sims and Sims 2[/v].

I have Sims 3. Very much the same as Sims 1 with the Hot Date Expansion where you can go to the town and visit other neighbors. The biggest difference I noticed is that you can only have one toon lot active at a time. So if you like having several different 'built up' toons, it's not like Sims 1 where you could level them up indpendently of each other.

It has some additional stuff to go along with differing personalities but I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would. :/ I went back to playing Sims 1 so I could continue to use all the special funiture and stuff I got over the years. Especially the magic shower thingie that brought all the stats up to 10 when they'd take a shower.

Yeah. That was my biggest complaint with the Sims 2, the loss of the truly customizable furniture. And I remember the cheat worthy furniture. Jerry rigged coffee machines and the like.

And the special art piece. Buy it for $750. Wait for it to appreciate the next day...sell it for $22,000. Sure beats typing cheat codes for $$$.

I had the grand piano that did pretty much the same.

Are you....er....a little weird?

I don't suppose you ever played The Sims? Users took the the virtual furniture from the game and rigged the programming so when the characters used ... say the rigged bed, they'd get more energy from their sleep.

Essentially it was cheating.

And no. I am slightly more then a little weird, thank you very much.

Lol!!!


Well, I guessed you were oddish....not that there's anything wrong with that.


I confess, I have never simmed.

Luv HALF LIFE 2

Amazing AI and Graphics... physics model

And I can't wait until the Episode 3 comes out!
