Agree, HoMM4 sort of lost the feeling that was in the others, dunno why though.

Not even gonna go into listing games. I've played them since '82, was born in '79, do the math

First game ever - Pong, the home entertainnment system that had games from...pong to...pong and also...pong.

Been playing ever since, and nowadays i play anything that peeks my mind.

In my "spare time", i make games for work, been in the industry for 5 years, from graphic artist, to quality assurance, to designer and now a lead designer.

It's could be said that...i live to game and game to live.

EDIT: Also i like to have wild monkey sex. Alone or in good company.

[Cirandi]

Atari 7800 console:Breakout and various other crappy games that i spent hours and hours with. Like this:

Nice gfx huh?!?!

NES:Metroid (Almost my all-time favourite console game if you measure how much i enjoyed it at the time.)

C64: Countless hours on IK+ with my mates, Defenders of the Crown countless hours alone, same with Moonstone (And with friends).

Amiga and Atari ST: Loads of shit.

PC: I used to MUD for a few years starting around 1995 up to about 2001. For you who doesn't know what a MUD is, you could say it's kind of a text-only MMO (It stands for Multi-User Dungeon) and was usually free to play, but there were some that required you to pay too. Usually like 1£/month

I also liked Age of Empires 1 a LOT and played it with my friends for ages, even after AOE 2 came out

And, ofc, DAOC (And pretty much all other MMO's but none have been as fun as DAOC.

Just a small sample of the games i've enjoyed over the years, feels like i could write an essay about videogaming hehe...

 

[Cirandi]

you are now looking at something called the real world.! yes it's true it's not fiction.! you'll discover wonderfull things like the sun, wind, and other people

WHOA! Your'e RIGHT! And kinda nice GFX too! Almost as good as Half-Life!

 

[Olgaline]

C64: Countless hours on IK+ with my mates, Defenders of the Crown countless hours alone, same with Moonstone (And with friends).

moonstone for C64 ? hmm think i missed something there,

 

[Cirandi]
