Old school has to be Tie Fighter but more recently

Return to Castle Wolfenstein

WTF you say??.. this game had everything a shooter should have: Mindless blasting, secrets to be found, zombies, Nazies (same thing), stealth and atmosphere. Forget the highly polished graphics and physics engines of today.. the atmosphere was enough.

Games are now becoming so advanced that sooner or later, it's going to be hard to distinguish them from real life.. so where is the fun in that?

That said, I still love HL and HL2 and I'm currently enjoying HL2 Episode 2. but they don't quite hit the mark the RTCW did.

I do believe that ID are making a follow up but i'm not sure if Grey matter are involved this time round.

RCTW... good call. I found my copy a couple of days ago. I may well install it and play through it again once I've re-finished Half-Life.

Also someone mentioned Oblivion... it's good, but for some reason it hasn't got me hooked like Morrowind did.

For some reason I feel like an old scrooge saying "They don't make them like they used to...".

I loved adventure games when I played computer games regularly. But it's a bit of a solitary thing. All the Lucasfilm games especially things like Monkey Island I adored. But I loved the Xwing and tie fighter series as well as Jedi Knights etc... But any adventure game, like Beneath a Steel Sky and Gabriel knight and the Space Quest series I always thoroughly enjoyed.

Got on really well with a few FPS like Soldier of Fortune 1 & 2 and spent too long play Medal of Honour 1 & 2 as well as Call of Duty 1 & 2. of course Half life 1 & 2 are included in that. Quake and wolfenstein (I remember when that first came out - it was awesome!)

Other than that I haven't really played any other games never really got into RPG or anything else like that. I have loads and loads of games (old now) but I just cba to play them anymore - I just haven't got the time - which is why I haven't got any consoles or ever had any - I just don't have time or the money for it and besides my PC copes well enough.

Can't believe I forgot Toejam & Earl! Me and my housemate finished it again a few months back. Funky.

Deus Ex - The best FPS of all time, 'nuff said.

Transport Tycoon Deluxe - Superb, a perfect balanced sim in my opinion. Thank god for OpenTTD keeping the dream alive too
