Games you're playing right now, and my freetime's demise

Other video games, TV shows, movies, general chit-chat...this is an all-purpose off-topic board where you can talk about anything that doesn't have its own dedicated section.

Is it an old game or just some game that has the same name of an old game?

I don't know why, but I seem to have this craving to play the Oregon Trail sometimes.

You and me both. I always liked giving my characters names of dead celebrities, like Kurt Cobain.

"Kurt Cobain was killed when his shotgun went off as he was cleaning it."

So that's how it really happened. :shock:

Oh I remember that game. My brother was so furious about it when he "bumped" into the bushes and his life meter (or is it?) decreasing, not knowing that the "bush" is actually an enemy soldier. :lol:

I probably would install Knights of the Old Republic again.

Flashpoint is a great game. I reinstalled it earlier this year, but the graphics are so dated that I wasn't very motivated.

I've been playing WoW for a little over a month and I love it.

I need to get a WoW card to continue playing though because I've only gotten 10 day trial + 30 days free for buying game.

But I'm going to get it after exams, which is like end of November so it doesn't distract me from my schoool work.

Its a great game and probably one of my all time favorites in terms of sports.

I think they look pretty decent for such an old game.

I'll play some Halo 3 when they fix compatibility with the freaking VGA cable.

Enormous thread for proof.

As it stands, Orange Box, Orange Box, more Orange Box, King of Colosseum II, Skate, NBA 2k8, UT3 Demo.

To add to my list, NBA 2K8, Live 08. Thinking of getting Juiced 2 for PS3 and NFS: ProStreet when they come out. Anyone have Juiced 2, is it any good?

I went to a shopping mall a while ago and oh how I wish to have stealth skills to steal the Xbox 360 or the PS3. :(

Like I said earlier in the thread, it's a 1280x720 image stretched vertically to 1280x1024, so everything is too tall, but also the FOV (field of view, how many degrees of peripheral vision you have) is much lower than it should be. Almost all FPS games give you 90 degrees of FOV and it looks like 75 or less.

:boohoo:

Orange box is a must buy for me when they release it here. The games work out cheaper then arcade games. Bargain.

I'm thinking about getting skate.

I would say that is a good choice. I am addicted to that game.

I've been playing the 'skate.' demo a bit. It seems really fun. I might consider getting it. I want to finish Oblivion first, though.
