what about the new Assassin's Creed Brotherhood ? , it's so promising I guess , I'm willing to start with it I recently played : -Darksiders ~ was a bit disappointed with it -Army of Two ~ hehe I just luv this game coz its crazy -previous parts of assassin's creed ~ i luv them
i'm a big fan of the Football Manager series, the Civilization series and Europa Universalis...i only play open ended games, the rest become boring very early...
ORIGINAL: at_leo_87 i'm a big metal gear solid and gran turismo fan.
I played both on ps1, like 13 years ago or something. I still remember the drivers licenses were just a pain in the butt with GT. Best racing game, you could even learn something about aerodynamics. And in metal gear i always tried to do it the non-violent way, but ended up killing everybody on the map.
The craziest game i know is Postal. I think it is an ironic game about violence?
the only rpg i got into was final fantasy 8. VERY time consuming!

gran turismo has the best physics, i've seen so far. you definitely learn a lot about driving theory, physics, aerodynamics, etc.
i always "try" to go the non-violent route too. in mgs3, you can sneak up behind them and slice their throats. that was really fun and hard to resist. the problem is, all the soldiers you kill come back to kill as ghosts later in the game.
I was given a nice new PS3 and a copy of Grand Theft Auto 4 as an early Christmas present.
I feel like I should be too old for games but these are adult entertainment.
I have a short list of games I want to buy,
Red Dead, Black Ops, Metal Gear Solid 4.
We upgraded our TV to a Hi Def model as well and I played a blue ray disc of Casino Royal on the PS3. Quite frankly, I was blown away by the quality difference. Not just the picture but the sound as well. I'm very pleased with it.
No doubt some of you guys suffer the same feelings of guilt when playing games. Like we should really be practicing some scales...lol

Ron, i love pacman.
there are some emulators, like DOS BOX for new PCs which are too new and too fast for old games. there are huge communities of people who love old games like pacman.
I used to be the gamer from hell, but I don't even have a TV in Nashville & the last time I seriously played video games was likely 5 years ago or so... Good times though, but I feel video games are a waste of my time now. I either have to read about psychiatry, sleep, or play guitar (or buy groceries, or work, or do laundry, etc.). Video games just do not factor into the equation anymore. I can't fathom how I used to play 11 hours of one-player Street Fighter in the past when I was a teenager. If I play anything like that now, I imagine I can't last more than 30 minutes...
to put a game into action lets say mariano and faustino conde are apprehended by interpol. they are taken to the station, charged with selling chinese made guitars with a conde sticker. interpol decides the brothers together might form a common defense so they put mariano in one room (sabicas playing a ramirez piped in) and faustino in another room (paco pena playing a gerundino piped in)--sort of a manuel noriega thing going on to loosen their tongues. interpol has little on these guys so they figure they will get one to rat on the other. if mariano and faustino fink on each other each will serve a year in a chinese prison painting the prison a bright orange. if mariano finks on faustino mariano goes free and can return to madrid and faustino goes to prison for a year in china then a year in north korea (spray painting dennis rodman's best buddy's home a nice bright orange). if mariano and faustino say nothing and tell interpol paco playing a conde and he would never play a chinese guitar they get 6 months planting cypress trees at the alhambra.
Well, you would think both will go to prison for 1 year, don't you? :D
But since we know that they are smart and make the best guitars, both will magically connect in a superposed, entangled and superpositioned quantum world and chose the option to keep quite and in addition offer the interpol officer some free blancas and negras, convincing him to not only let them both free , but even cooperate with them and make some extra cash ;-)

arash--nice! now we have the interpol agent up on charges of accepting a bribe and the conde boys are brought in since the information gathered is tainted because of the bribe and the game now expands to three.
I've been an Off/on Pc game addict for the last 3-6 years. I'm trying to have a real life now hahah and music is my medicine of choice. Both avenues have for the most part made me a hermit....either playing video games for hours in my room, or practicing guitar for hours in my room. Once the money coffers dry up...i'll have to open the door, walk outside and try to make some money. I've lived like this for so long, I've become accustomed to it and maybe even prefer it over the norm...it's gonna be hard to transition into the real world. recently i've been playing: Counter-strike Go, Dota 2, Payday 2 the Heist, warframe and others. I play on Steam and with steam's new market system...i've been funding my video game addiction by selling in-game items....i've made probably $70-80 this way. Also i only buy games when there is a sale on steam...which is very frequent. Some games will go down to 2-7 dollars....and not just crap ones either.
