online games... (or i am a nerd)

[pixina]

does anyone else here play Guild Wars? ....or am i the only nerd?

[Toe Cutter]

Sorry, never heard of it. I don't really play much video games, so I don't count.

[KilLAtomiK]

ive been wanting to play it but im mostly a console game type fella

[Bondage Clown]

Star Wars Galaxies, Ascheron's Call, and if it has a Rockstar logo on it.. I am in it

[Spaceman Spiff]

GTA: Vice City and Evil Dead: Fistfull of Boomstick are about all I play these days. I'm more of an offline gamer anyway...but that still qualifies me as a bit of a nerd, right.

[OliX]

I'm a nerd too but I don't have time for online games... for intenet at all... I hade once but time is changing...

I like poker online and old vertical shooters tipe of Raiden..... If anyone knows some titles please send me some to have for ocasional stress moments I played most of them so try with unknow ones...


we should make a poker tournament with folks from here and it's only to organise it.... not me eventualy I'm busy but I will shurely find time to play if there would be one.

Card carrying rpg nerd here. on and off line

[VoldtaEngler]

guild wars looks nice. but all the reviews i've read say its pretty easy. plus it came out at a really bad time with world of warcraft and all. im sure they are feeling the $$ fly out the window to blizzard. i try to stay away from RPG's nowadays. i have no time on my hands lol.
motto here : if your playing The Sims.. is sad that you shower your sims and they work more than you do! hehe oh! i just got the new Nightmare Before Xmas game for Xbox... byeeeeeee!!

[Umbilical Lotus]

D&D player, wish I still had my old Call of Cthulhu books so I could engage a few Torontoites in Lovecraft fun, haven't touched CCGs but that's because I'm ridiculously poor.

On my budget, free = good. My computer sucks too bad to play Guild Wars, but I probably would if I could. I play several browser-based games, most notably Torn City (on it as Aceph) and the Reincarnation (on it as Gravefallow, Apprentice server). I like browser-based games; they require little time/effort from me so I can just have fun with them. Other than that, I like single-player console and PC RPGs (I am a TOTAL Spiderweb Software fangirl. Avernum/Exile and Geneforge series = woot), and am currently going through my Stack o' Emulation and playing all the SNES RPGs I loved, like Breath of Fire and Seiken Densetsu 3.

But I've digressed a hell of a lot. Now I feel like downloading Shattered Galaxy again.

[RobLongshot]

I love me the guild wars!

Yes...I is a nerd too.

Hey looks like we have enough for a small group...

[TheQuietPlace]

My computer can't handle ANY games made after like 2002. Heh. But I heard that GW is a really good MMORPG.

It'll handle guild wars easy...it's not all that system intensive and it's not a "real" MMORPG in the monthly fee sense.

[TheQuietPlace]

haha. Sweet. Its free. I might get it. I just hope my life doesn't get sucked away by it if I do get it.

[cheinara wraithwalker]

I've bought Guild Wars...got tired of it. Too based off of group stuff. Sure, it's pretty...but it has to be more than pretty to keep my attention. Moved onto EQ2...everyone stopped playing after they pulled that piece of shit patch out of their butt. Ridiculous, the amount of people that just left the game, but I can't blame them. Moved onto Star Wars Galaxies. I play D&D, a huge assortment of computer/console games, and am certified in my geekyness. :[ :[

Right now, though, I'm tearing up Rebel Scum in the sky with my new joystick. All hail the Emperor! Server I'm on: Corbantis.

What?!?! Honey, those are a basis of worship, especially GTA. Busting up hos with a baseball bat? What has every lonely nerd wanted to do after they finally did their first woman? Wack them to death and get their money back, of course. And Boomstick is a love in the geek realm because, hey, that's fucking Ash. No one beats Ash.

[RobLongshot]

stopped SW:G after the CU... it used to be a fun game and it turned into a mindless grind... I was a MBH/MC Imp and after the CU i was having trouble killing easy mobs...

[mr_laurie]

I'm a bit of a Guid Wars freak as well. Althouhg I have gone through a half dozen characters already trying to find the "best" class combo for me

[Rocktacula]

Tried the World of Warcraft for a bit, and even got suckered into City of Heroes, but the repetition and mindless grinding to get levels and/or items just wears me out after a bit...gimme football...

[RobLongshot]

Necro/Elemental is fun to play.

[Tequila Zaire]

Necro/Elemental is fun to play.

This is key...FUN TO PLAY...too many get stuck in the "Best Class to Kick Ass" with and end up feeling the grind and hassle of these games early on. The online and social aspect is what keeps that beast at bay...

Looks like we have many GW junkies here...

I'm looking for this game, I remember it when it was once on the Amiga, but I'm not sure of the name.

You are this guy who shoots these balls until they completely break apart. It was a single-action side scrolling game.
