The Longest Journey was on there ... isn't that kind of an adventure game? I guess I liked the list more than most because many of those games never even appear on other lists, at all.

On the one hand, for me personally, I think it'd be a cool job - the being a part of the process kind of thing. On the other side, I'd be afraid that if playing games was my job, I'd eventually start to go home and rarely want to play them on my own time. :D Sounds like a great experience to have, tho, and I'm sure I'd try it if I had a chance.

Hi Jade Jump right in - and welcome to the forums.

Computerandvideogames.com 101 "best PC games ever" Above link goes to the top 25 - links to the rest are at the top of the article. While I don't agree with all of their positionings, for once, it's not too bad "list," title-wise, imo. Dungeon Keeper = #62

I Googled some reviews - sounds interesting, although at this time in my life, possibly also a bit excruciating ... in a good way. The mapping thing sounds cool, but ... I don't have a console. I love it when you pick up a game on a "lark" like that and it turns out to be one of your favorite games ever, or something. Same thing happened to me with Dungeon Keeper way back when.

But ... but ... I like being spoon fed; it's the closest I can come to being born w/a silver spoon in my mouth ... Have to agree. I remember when D2 came out, and some people were complaining the graphics were already outdated because of how much time passed between when they began and when it was released. Didn't stop fans from obsessively playing it for years, tho. Still...can't wait for the 2007 graphic Daiblo3 - in the year 2012.

lol, fun pics, great expressions.

Kitties go home today, which I'm kind of looking forward to, since I don't usually wake up to cats staring at me or sitting on my chest etc. heh They were cute as buttons tho.

Graphics don't make or break a game for me; a fun game is a fun game regardless. But if a game has graphics I really like, my immersion-level enjoyment goes up several notches.

Me either. Or Morrowind, for that matter. But I did play Morrowind a lot longer than Oblivion - mostly because at the time it was 'fresh' to me. By Oblivion - it wasn't.

You forgot the "imo." I unapologetically love the Diablo series. Starcraft doesn't do much for me, tho. Wasn't terrible or anything, what I played - just didn't excite.

I knew I should've been an animal vet.

Perhaps actually listing your computer specs and hardware would help?

I don't like the graphics, from the screenies, either. To me it looks too pinball-arcade-ish. Not that they're horrible, and maybe it'll be a great game ... but they could do better graphic style-wise, imo.

The neighbors behind us are having some kind of big party, complete with horrible accordian-vocal fast-dance music played at block-volume all afternoon. I'm about ready to go postal.

Every time I try to take the test and press "Process" it takes me to a "Latest News" page ...

I finished Titan Quest/Immortal Throne last night. Immortal Throne's additional Act4 was the best act, although the end 'level maze' of stairs and prison rooms became a little bit tedious to traverse. I was expecting the boss monster to be harder, even if I did have two pet minions to help me out. I'm glad I didn't buy it when first released, tho, because the original three Acts don't make for a very long game. But $19 for the original and $30 for the expansion feels like I'm getting a whole game for normal price. Hehe. All in all, I really enjoyed the action-rpg romp the game gives. Now comes the question of whether I want to play Epic difficulty or start a new Mastery combo character. Hmm.

I remember when we rented that, thinking "bad sci-fi movie, what the heck, we'll try it" and came away thinking "not bad at all!" Then the sequel ... so disappointing.

Good news for Starcraft fans ... and about time, really. (ps nothing negative intended in that remark, heheh)

I saw a long Transformers ad on TV a couple nights ago. I don't think it made me want to run out and see it, but the animation/effects looked neat.

That's what usually happens here, only it's the other way around. Hubby always needs/can use computer parts for work pc's that don't have to be 'powerful.' When I decide I need a new computer so I can occasionally pretend to be more up to date with the tech, he takes my old parts and builds a couple more pc's to put on his table. Or maybe he uses them in the garage on his super-secret mad scientist projects ... like I know.

One problem I've always had with many headphones is the 'band' slides off my very straight, very flat, and apparently very slippery hair at the slightest movement. Something about Sony's bands or their design in general keeps that from happening. I know some of the metal bands on mini-earphones - like for portable players - kind of "pinch" my hair, but they're usually a lot narrower.

Kittens/young animals never seem to run out of energy. Unlike humans.

Things like ewoks give the fast-forward button a good work-out. Please George, no more "cute" animals/species.

Yes ... maybe ... I don't know? Sometimes/for some parents it's really hard if nigh impossible to find a babysitter they can feel comfy with, tho, I know. My siblings pretty much tossed them at my mother whenever possible.
