Capitalist pig dog!!!! You should be spending your money to advance the cause of the proletariat and not to enrich the capitalist machine!!!

What generas do you like? There's been a lot of good games recently.

I never liked Diablo. I do like Dungeon Siege.

DinoDoc · July 22, 2002, 16:34

I find that odd. To each his own, I guess.

I would like to sugest MOO3, but it seems they're not going to publish it in July as scheduled.

Being conservative means being decent... hehe..

Now the games:

1) Tropico (I rule as a capitalist dictator... you can be a communist one though - Basically this game is about ruling a poor island in the Gulf of Mexico or somewhere with an iron fist. I usually play as a tough dictator, arresting my [communist] opponents, harassing them and never calling elections. I rule by martial law for quite some time and pile a big amount of... umm... a pension in a bank account for retirement.)

2) Mobile Forces (Great FPS.... well that is what I heard... I ordered it...)

Zealot · July 22, 2002, 16:51

As for FPS I recommend Medal of Honor: Allied Assault

Boris Godunov · July 22, 2002, 16:51

I want a good WWII strategy game where you can have control over all the theaters of the war. Anything close to that?

Hearts of Iron

Bereta_Eder · July 22, 2002, 16:57

how's neverwinter nigts like?

any good?

did they make it like they said they would?

i rememeber there being lots of hopes for this game when itwas in development (and I was still interested in following PC games)

Rogan Josh · July 22, 2002, 17:00

Neverwinter Nights is a little bit disappointing in my opinion.

Anyone else like the HPS sims games? Their graphics are lacking obviously, but if you're a hardcore wargame grognard, you can't get a better bang for the buck .

monkspider · July 22, 2002, 17:37

*joins Boris in drooling*

Hearts of Iron looks incredible! I'll have to follow that one closely.

I completely disagree. It is nothing like Diablo, other than it shares the same fantasy/D&D theme. Gameplay is different, and so are the graphics, the levels and the structure of the storyline.
I greatly recommend that you get Dungeon Siege. If you enjoyed games of the same genre you will enjoy this game. I also recommend Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3 if you're into these games (great graphics, fun gameplay) and Star Wars Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast (also great graphics & gameplay and dueling with the lightsaber and using force powers makes the game helluva fun both in single and multiplayer games).

Edit-- I also recommend Grand Theft Auto 3, which is a game where you're a car thief and you do jobs for the underworld and have to keep from getting caught by the police or killed. Excellent graphics, very fun gameplay and it'll keep you busy for a very long time.
Freedom Force is very nice if you like this kind of stuff. It's a role playing game with a comics superheroes theme. Very good graphics which make the entire game look like a genuine comic book, gameplay not always that good though, but overall it's a very fun game.
