Crusader Kings II, from Paradox.

Have you tried the new the wolfenstein the new world order? Its pretty fuken sick.

I've started playing Smite a lot lately in between browsing this forum. It's really addicting.

What game is this?

Actually, can anyone recommend evony or hommk type game?

What game is this?

Nethack's pretty awesome. It was open-source, so there are a bunch of different modifications to it out there... some give it elaborate GUIs for the "modern gamer" - I think one's even 3D and adds sounds. I've always stuck with SLASH'EM, though -- I was a late entrant to Nethack. Nethack consumes virtually 0 resources... great for tablets and whatnot.

Why, I do believe that I found someone that loves nethack more than myself. But seriously - nethack. If you haven't played nethack, and you are reading this, you are hereby ordered by the Department of Awesome Games to stop what you're doing and play nethack.

Are you playing nethack yet? Why not? Go play nethack. RIGHT. NOW.

The PS3 and the WiiU are really great consoles. I like the Bioshock series, I really think the story is incredible, and i like Skyrim too. I'm a little disappointed that the PS4 doesn't have backwards compatibility though.

BUMP FOR NETHACK

DOES ANYONE ELSE LOVE NETHACK

only cs
one and only

Lunatic trait is best trait.

Mm, good old days. I won a tournament in CS  and lots of monies.
Half Life is sooo fun, HL3 should me a lot of fun...and better graphics.

waiting for Beyond: Two Souls and The Last Of Us, it was fun just watching all the actors "acting the story", both games are motion captured

Oh the good 'ol days. I used to be a beast in CS:Source and TF2 back in the day. I remember when Hellgate London came out during my freshman year in college and we had a Dorm party for it, with all of us on the same server.

I've actually gotten back into the Half Life series of late. Played through Black Mesa Source, Half Life 2, and working through all the episodes now ..damn I can't wait until HL:3

Lol, easier just to quote/modify your list. Would add Dominions series from Illwinter, everything from Paradox (have played Crusader Kings 2 exclusively for a long time), Nethack, and Dwarf Fortress. Don't spend much time with games anymore, though... When I was very young, my Baptist preacher grandparents would let me play Homey the Clown. I'd never seen the skits and still haven't, but I loved the game. I played it a few years ago and wondered how it was possible I could've enjoyed it. They had a very strange choice of games to let us play when young, including Phantasmagoria. It's weird because these are the same people who insisted their daughters and granddaughters not wear shorts and refused to allow "bad music" to play. My grandma was the type to get out of the car at a gas station and lecture someone dare they use "bad" words.

Amnesia, though, has a special place in my heart. I've never been more terrified in my life than when trying to outwit and outrun something which never shows up on the screen, in that little flooded dungeon with the books. I would have to spend a minute to compose myself before chucking some gore into the water and flailing around, trying to get to the switch. When I finished the game, I watched a "Let's Play" of it, and was still terrified when that area came up.

Half life 2!!!!  Love that game.  Makes me want to play the first one just for plot!

Are we talking about games we played or playing as of today?

I used to play a lot more when hanging out at a gaming club..and some good stuff like
Counter Strike, Half Life 2, Quake III, Unreal Tournament, Doom, Duke Nuken, Hellgate London, Diablo 2, Need for Speed Hot Pursuit / Underground / Most Wanted, hm and more can't seem to remember them all.

But now I don't have anyone to play with

I just realized I was prepared to list pretty much every game I own, which is around 88. Don't believe me? Just check my Steam account. I'm kind of an addict And I have ones that aren't on steam as well. But anyways, enough of my list. (For the record, that's basically the list of games I('ve) play(ed) actively (in the past))

Omg, games. If I just had more time to play all of them 

• World of Warcraft
• Diablo 3
• Guild Wars 2
• Eve Online
• Minecraft
• Battle Forge
• Allods Online
• League of Legends
• Might and Magic Heroes VI

No scary games for me
