The later Leisure Suit Larry games (5-7), but I've mostly switched to anime/hentai games by now, other than lot's of much more "normal" stuff ( strategy games, rpgs, shooters, etc).

On that note, I think you can die/fail in Divi-Dead, if I remember correctly (been a while since I played it though)....probably in most rpg-like h-games too.

Creatures
Creatures 2
Creatures 3
and Docking Station (free add on for C3, or a stand alone game itself)

I used to play them quite often, but I havent played them for about a year and a half.

All of the Sim games. Though Im not really ashamed of it.

do one timers count too?

I was over at my girlfriends house one day and we were just hanging out, she had fallen asleep and I noticed a gameboy on the coffee table. So I picked it up, looked at the assorted games laying next to it and decided I would play the Barbie game.
It was boring but I didnt have anything better to do, so I beat it. It was either that or Super Mario World, which Ive beaten many times on the SNES.

Star Trek Armada with the Star Trek vs. Star Wars modpack.

I don't like either franchise, but there's just something quite fun about having a huge fleet of Sovereign class starships bearing down on a Super Star Destroyer and whupping it.

I don't really secretly play anything. I make it known what I'm playing and then whether it sucks or not .

Then again, I don't play many games these days anyway.

Whats wrong with the warehouses in Caesar III? Ive never noticed anything bad about them, but maybe thats because Ive never had the patience to play the campaign... Speaking of Caesar III, I think Im going to go find my CD and reinstall it. I havent played in a long time.

When I want a warehouse to dump something they've got too much of, and I have other warehouses better placed to take it, the warehouse ignores me and goes on about its business JUST AS IF I WERE NOT ITS GOD.
Oh, they'll stop accepting new increments of the item, but they are slow to get rid of the excess.
I use all necessary commands. Seems like a gremlin in the warehouse to me.

umm... If we're doing the "true confessions" thing, then I guess I can admit to being such a bad civ addict that I play CTP 1 and 2 now and then, and I even get out my Rise and Rule of Ancient Empires CD and consider reinstalling it, despite its being the buggiest game I have ever subjected the computer to and being a morass of bad micromanagement at that. but I'm still drawn....

I also play ascendancy, even though it got horrid reviews, and I just bought HOMM4.

I suppose the most ridiculous is that I still play Zork sometimes. Yes the text adventure. It's just so cute when I ask WHAT IS A GRUE and get the explanation. and yes I know that's pathetic

How far apart are the warehouses? Remember each warehouse has only so many cart pushers. Also it helps if you tell the other warehouse to activly seek the material, and shut down the industry producing it for a little while. It spikes unemployment, but that an be fixed by building a but load of engineer or guard buildings. You just have to remember to reactivate the industries and destroy the extra buildings after everything is fixed.

Don't knock it. Infocom's text adventures are some of the best.

And check this out!

I still have fun with it, although the terraforming kind of sucks....

Thanks for the link. I've got it bookmarked and will be watching.
