If you haven't played Puzzle Quest in one of its many iterations yet, thats on arcade and is tons of fun. The multiplayer is usually pretty dead, but someone will challenge you eventually if you host a game for a solid 15 minutes or so. Castlevania SotN is on there too, great platformer /...

Sadly, I've probably logged more hours into WoW than anything else. I played it over a 2 year period, half the time I was unemployed and stoned out of my mind, leaving me plenty of time to waste in warcrack. If you took the Civ series as a whole It might be able to compete with that though...

Plus, Al Franken is your senator! :gigglesnort: :poke: :poke: You had your 8 years of glory. We managed to suspend that pesky ol' constitution. And in true republican fashion, wonders were worked with the economy! As in, I wonder if it will ever recover. Don't worry, Olliver North is...

Regardless of what you think of Obama, the fact that that half-retarded cowboy is out of office is reason to celebrate the world over. It is definitely encouraging to know that within his first few hours in office he made steps towards shutting down the fucking gulag in gitmo. Impressive...

@Daimyo: It was a DOS release, so I imagine DosBox should handle it fine. Like I said though, last time I booted it up was with a boot disk (ah the glory days) It was a memory hog! I might try to hunt down a copy, I'll let you know If I get it working. I never played or heard...

haha, sounds like it. Can't you just reload? I don't remember hitting anything game breaking. Also I remember it having a non-linear storyline, with multiple solutions for some of the quests. There like 3 or more ways to get out of the slave pens you start in for example. It has been...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Sun:_Shattered_Lands I never hear this one brought up in RPG discussions, but I remember liking it a lot. Could be nostalgia talking though as I was probably 12 or so when I last played it. Turn based combat and dialogue trees all in a non-Forgotten...

Be careful not to blow up the UFO power sources, they only give you the 50 elerium if they survive combat in tact. I only ever blow them up if there's like 3 or 4 aliens surrounding them, and even then I'll usually let a soldier or two die if it means not damaging the engine (ruthelss! :) )...

In TFTD you need to capture a "commander" alien alive and research it to be able to travel to the aliens main base and win the game. The bug prevents the captured alien from showing up in your research list. I thought I was knocking out the wrong guys at first, but I captured at least 6 or 7...

Sensi (short for sensimilla) is a term used for pot without seeds. Ganja grown in optimum conditions never gets pollinated. Once a female pot plant (males don't really produce smokable buds) gets pollinated, all of the plants energy goes into seed production instead of flower production...

THC is remarkably non-toxic, and is easier on the body than apirin. Also, it doesn't kill braincells. Good god. That's it, I'm coming over, when do you get off work? :D Are we talking sensi or seeded here? In case you're unaware of how good you have it, average retail price in the states...

The whole underwater setting didn't really do it for me in TFTD, I liked the armaments and crafts of the first one a lot more. Maybe I should go back to it sometime though, I only played it once. Maybe the sour taste it left in my mouth was because I hit that research bug on my first and only...

A couple more tips for the mid to late game: *Tech Spoilers* When you have flying armor and the guided missile launcher (blaster launcher) heres a fun little trick I use when taking on the medium and large alien ships. Use the blaster launcher like a can opener, set a waypoint...

As near as I can figure, 4too is some kind of anonymous autonomous anomaly spawned from the very essence of the intertubes. Perhaps a rogue Turing test that absorbed it's maker and became greater than the sum of it's parts. The In-site insight of NMA, with a knack for clever wordplay...

Liked a lot of the stuff already posted, Deus Ex, Planescape, Arcanum, Fallout, and Nobuo Uematsu. Might & Magic 6 had some great tunes.

Steam launches it through dosbox, haven't used Vista at all yet but if dosbox works in vista then it should.

That's a really good point and something I hadn't considered. He hates everyone equally :)

One of the best flicks I've seen in awhile. Eastwood's character is most certainly racist, not just against Koreans either, but just saying that is definitely a gross simplification. His character also evolves a bit throughout the film which is always a good thing. Pretty ballsy writing...

While most UFO's and terror sites are totally random (as far as I can tell) it seems you'll always get your first terror site at the end of the first month, and it almost always ends up in a spot that forces you to attempt it at night. It'll take a little bit to get armor (or armour as it...

On my first play through I didn't even realize that it was possible to save in combat. Whenever I go back to it I play it "iron man". Really adds to the tension. A few tips: Avoid night missions as much as possible. If you're forced to do a mission at night don't underestimate the...
