Are there any gamers here?

Wondering if anyone here plays any PC games at all. Getting together would be fun, shootin' Ice in call of duty for example

I used to race NASCAR Racing Season 2003 (and NR2002, N4), if that counts.

I'm into racing games only, playing World Racing 2 and Flatout 2 the most right now.
Also love running from the cops in NFS Most Wanted.

heh. most wanted and carbon are fun. Blasting through the roadblocks and ramming them off the road rocks

I've yet to try Flatout, been thinking about trying it though.

I beat Call2 for XBOX 360, started Dead Rising, but have not had time in quite some time to even turn it on.

Counterstrike and the half lifes. Also got Midtown Madness to drive a superduty 7.3L around chi town.

Did a lot of progaming mods to HL back in the day.

Now the only games I play are Candy Land and Chutes & Ladders.

I play Age Of Empires or Rise Of Nations now when I have time. They are easier to pause.

Not much of a computer or video game guy. I have a WW2 combat sim I sometimes play, and I am a Mahjong addict (I even have that on my phone, lol.

ripsnorter · Post by **ripsnorter** » February 25, 2007, 3:01 pm

which WW2 combat sim? there were several, and I've been crying in my sleep to be able to play a game of CFS2 again.

I could even be persuaded to play a Counter strike game if we could do it via IP.

I have the old Jane's WW2 fighters one, doesn't have alot of planes but it's quite realistic, even the different planes have characteristics like their real counterparts. I think EA sells it now. The Microsoft one has alot of cool aircraft types plus downloadable ones but it looks a little too cartoony for me. I have also heard that all the planes "fly" more or less the same which would not be realistic at all. I used to fly full size planes and can tell you that even 2 planes of the same type feel different. Used to be able to play the Janes one online too. I haven't checked on that in a couple years though.

well, Combat Flight sim 2 didnt seem that bad to me, granted I'm not a pilote. CFS3 however wasnt very good. I also didnt play CFS1, but I heard it wasnt nearly as realistic.

I was a die-hard zero pilot though (Mk2)

I know IL2 Sturmovich was a big sucessor to CFS2, but I never had the computer power at the time to really try it. I might have to now that I have a decent rig. I also have Falcon 4.0 AF, just never installed it.
