I agree, I really liked the old Mega Man games, except MM1 and I also enjoyed the MMX series. These games were relatively difficult, but you didn't have a bunch of stupid bonuses to get in the way, like all the chips on MM Battle Network. (I still enjoyed it, but I didn't go get all the stupid chips or anything, even though I normally like to get 100% on games, it wasn't any fun to even try) Ah, I had almost forgotten about those. I meant more along the lines of the MegaMan Zero games, where you get mission points taken off for every little slip-up to the point that to get a perfect rating, and all of the items and skills, you'd have to go through the entire game without getting hit. Get ready to save and reset, I guess! (Of course, you can just use your Cyber-Elves and play it like a normal Mega Man game, but I felt guilty about killing them. For a while. Until I got a taste of how hard it is without them.) [ Tuesday, February 20, 2007 18:57: Message edited by: Whyte Shadow ] -------------------- http://whyte-shadow-neko.deviantart.com - My drawings!

Anyway, my all-time favorite games have been X-Com, Civ II, and the Exile games. ... Any suggestions? If you liked Civ II, I'd highly recommend Civ IV, if your computer can handle it. The game is as fun as previous installments in that series and includes more strategic depth and better AI. You can turn off most of the extra graphics and turn on additional information displays to get a more utilitarian look you seem to prefer. -------------------- Be careful with a word, as you would with a sword, For it too has the power to kill.

Cylon Apprentice Member # 8073	written Wednesday, February 21 2007 10:41 Profile #28 Wesnoth.org is a decent game. It is free, too. The latest version has taken a signifigant step backwards, however. The graphics and logic have gotten too bulky I guess. The game runs too slowly. -------- Ultimate Supreme Warrior Lord Jester of the Super Noobs Posts: 32 \| Registered: Tuesday, February 13 2007 08:00

I wandered around Civ IV a little on a friend's computer, but it had too much pretty stuff in the way of the important stuff. I may have to take another look at it.
