I have been playing mafia wars on facebook, Sins of a solar empire, Stronghold 2, and Starcraft. I may also start playing Sims 3. (I have been hearing that people have been having problems with getting it to run.) I also still play GTA San Andreas and GTA 3. Haven't tried GTA 4 yet. On Wed, Jun 24, 2009 at 6:17 AM, B.

The DDR parts of the game are the only reason why I am still playing it.

Re: [scifinoir2] Re: for the Gamers (Roll Call: Name Your Favorite Games) Pt 2
Some games kind of blur the line between a game and too realistic. I remember buying a WW2 pilot game (Ace of air or something like that) and it had a 250 page manual with different sections on flying and air to air combat plus interactive training sessions. Also, a history on all of the airplanes used in the war, and the squadrons on both sides. (I got to fly as a Tuskegee airman!)This would be totally unheard of nowadays. The closest thing to this is that $200 controller system that only works with that particular elaborate giant robot game. (Can't think of the name of the game.It came out about 5 years ago.)
