Whats yours favorite computer/console game

[The_NuttyTart]

i used to love playing crash bandicoot or spyro ..lol...but now my son doesnt like those games so we dont have them...he prefers call of duty

[We Could Be Heroes]

The only game i've played in the last year is Dawn Of War, I think relic have been doing some good work, plus i'm a nerd and used to play the old tabletop Warhammer game when I was a teen.... always had a soft spot for that universe...

Actually I scold myself when i play computer games now... I try to limit myself to posting on this site being my only non-email computer based activity. I think computer games are so... passive. It's just like getting high or something, you learn absolutely nothing and achieve absolutley nothing except for in a little made up electrical universe which ultimately amounts to nothing.

I love The Sims!  
Basically, I just really enjoy using the money cheat over and over again, and then I build amazing Sim houses.  That is my favorite part.

mmm, I really like Psychonauts, and the indigo child...
All I like are PC games, And Gareth, if you think games are passive, there are ways to change it...
If you'll read my Idea in the link in my signature and vote for me then you will see there are ways to make good stuff out of games...

Lord, so many games, so little time.  I like all the games that everone's mentioned so far, expecially Dawn of War and Sims and Psychonauts.

I think that the best overall game that I've actually played is Deus Ex.  THe gameplay involvement, map size, weapon selection, and graphics for that year, and intelligent theoretical philosophy were overall the best combination that has not been sucessfully replicated in the majority of other games to date.

I love the sims I haven't played in a while though, but like time I played Sim Sven and Sim Filip fell in love and married, then shortly after real Sven and real Filip got back together *still waiting for them to get married though!!!*

I also admit I've been playing World of Warcraft on Rob's account.
It's not a bad game, and I do enjoy killing things sometimes. Only thing about games like that is that they're boring to play alone

[Kaliratra]

Wow, it's like your a cyberpsychic!  Or you've been using digital voodoo, hehe.

lol! I have both of those games

Well Had, unfortunatly my last roomate in BC decided to steal the CD's and mail me bad copies of them.

Was a pretty good game, Monoliths graphic engine was awesome for its time. Hell they built the orginal PS2 one

[Serious Sven]

Unreal Tournament kicks ass!!!!

[Ryan]

I used to play Rollercoaster Tycoon and Grand Theft Auto all the time. I stopped cold turkey and boy was it rough. I knew it was time to stop Grand Theft Auto when I was driving and thinking about just ramming the car in front of me 'cause the driver was going 15 mph below the speed limit.

[Aras]

I mostly like sports games, or fighting ones

[Robulosity]

I'm currently moving away from World of warcraft for now..

I"ve kinda been trying Storm Rise (RTS) and it's a intresting concept for controlling an RTS (Think Red Alert and command and conquer) but I'm not sure it was executed properly so the game is alot harder than it needs to be...

[Dionysus]

World of Warcraft seems interesting, but I do not find myself to be a person who plays games very frequently

[Jes]

I totally love the Sims

[Robulosity]

It's a good way to let off steam, how ever depending on what you do in the game it's a good way to add alot of extra stress/frustration which I do not feel is a benefit at all

[Godless-Liberal]

I miss ST: Armada.  My stupid graphics card screws up the grahpics that I can't even play it.
