I grew up with SimCity, SimTower, SimAnt, Warcraft and Myst, and really liked them. All I've played recently is SW games, and like them more. -------------------- Nena Posts: 2032 | Registered: Wednesday, January 26 2005 08:00 |

SimCity 3000 is a great game. I like the disasters you can inflict upon your city. :D -------------------- I'll put a Spring in your step. Polaris Posts: 2396 | Registered: Saturday, January 29 2005 08:00 |

quote:Blah, Myst. Hated that game ... Actually I only played Myst 3 because someone gave it to me (I still have it somewhere) but I hated it so much. It was really quite lame. Warcraft was a good game although in one of them (either I or II) the orc house things look like santas workshop with the candy candes etc outside.

Favorite game? This'll date me well. Zork 1 and Zork 3 - I forget if I played them on the trash-80 or on my Commodore 128 in CP/M language. Good times.... good times.... oh yeah, I also liked CK. Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

Zork...is that the game how he is an alien nerd and the point of the game is to get the key or whatever? If it is, all I have to say is this: Goddamn flowers! -------------------- I'll put a Spring in your step. Polaris Posts: 2396 | Registered: Saturday, January 29 2005 08:00 |

Actually, having given it further thought, I believe that the worst game ever made was E.T. for the Atari 2600. Posts: 2242 | Registered: Saturday, April 10 2004 07:00 |

I meant the first Myst. I do have Riven (2) and Revelation (4), but that only one I really liked was the first one. When I got older I was able too solve the rocket puzzle by ear, but when I was younger I had to go to the library, draw the picture, and count the keys/panel notches. Though it can be done visually, it's a hassle and takes a long time. In Myst 4 there is a puzzle where you have to listen to the mangree's(sp) calls and imitate them using three wheels, each producing a different tone. The object is to call each of the animals by name, and navigate them to four different tree nests, so as to put them in the proper locations to cause the comadile(sp) that is chasing you/them to fall in a pit. Once the comadile(sp) is in the pit you need to instruct the mangree(sp) to throw something at it, and knock it unconscious, thus allowing you to make your escape. The puzzle is timed, and very sensitive. The animals only react to the exact turning of the wheels, and for the puzzle's final step you have only a split second to make your flawless move before having to start over. I had all the mangrees(sp) in their proper nests, and the game saved so I could try the last step a million times if need be. It never worked right. Worst puzzle ever; it didn't take intellect, but rather fast reaction time and an incredible ear; all the later Mysts are like that. Sorry for such a long rant, I had forgotten about that puzzle.

Well, I think I'll show you a site I really like for a few of their games, which are pretty good: Classic Gaming Archive Most if not all are freeware and, well, free for download with free membership. -------------------- -ben4808 For those who love to spam: CSM Forums RIFQ Posts: 3360 | Registered: Friday, June 25 2004 07:00 |

 How can you NOT know what Zork is? I'm willing to bet all my peanut M&M's that Zork was a strong influence in Jeff Vogel's game creation. After all, it was the first RPG created on a computer.  Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

The original Myst took my breath away. It was the first time I'd ever seen 3D graphics, and it blew my mind that something so beautiful and amazing could be created in a computer. Then Riven came out, and it was so much better. I realised that the original really was quite... I don't want to say lame, but certainly incomplete. In Myst, everything existed purely for puzzles. Some of those puzzles weren't bad, and the whole thing looked really nice, but there was definite room for improvement. Riven really was close to being as good as a Myst game could be. The puzzles fit within the logic of the world, and stuff had a good, sensible reason to be there rather than simply for the sake of puzzles, the world was less static, and it was even more spectacular. Myst III... eh. Fun, but not great. I did like Dourif's performance, but the whole storyline felt too tacked-on to the other two, and it was pretty static for the bulk of the game, and somehow it just didn't feel as spectacular. -------------------- Sex is easier than love.
