Right... Um you don't understand the depth of games like Lufia. It wasn't a crap game. Now Mafia is, a GTA rip off where the old cars go about 15mph, and the shooting system sucks. also KOTOR has multiplayer on pc, so get PC version, or just get SW Galaxies it's a great online game and it's very much like KOTOR. But I'm still waiting for HalfLife2 and KOTOR2. I'm guessing they'll be the two top sellers when they come out... also with HALO2

dude, Lufia sucks...and Mafia is like GTA but man, those old racing cars are cool. Star Wars Galaxies is way too complex to get goin' on-line. Maybe the new mods and stuff can help it. I really only like to play fps on-line anyways...Diablo II got REALLY boring after about 20 minutes.

Right.... How can you call D2 boring... I don't think you've played games enough to really repect the games and thier fulness, Yea you did probley get bored with D2 after about 20 minutes, you didn't even make it into the game practily you haven't experenced it at all. It's like me taking a game and playing it for 20 minutes and writing a review over the whole inteir game in the 20 minutes... You can not judge a game in 20 minutes. H3LL I even have ADHD and I can last longer then that. On the other hand Mafia's still a rip of, in all sence of the word rip off. It's like Moding GTA for 50$ and playing it as a 30's Rackiteer. Now on last note Lufia is an RPG, great game play, great story good graphics for the time, and an all an all great job for leaving open a squel. Now how can someone like you who love SOM Ledgen of Gaia and those call Lufia bad? Becuase you've been tainted by the FPS's and Action Adventure games of this time? H3ll I even play CT on my laptop... I've beaten it about 25 times going on 26 right now and it's still a great game.

my nominations (this will take a while) N64- Perfect Dark, no contest. the multi on that game beats even the almighty 007. PSX- I'm gonna have to go with NBA Showtime on NBC. yes, yes, this over NBA Live '97 with the "Fighting Whities". Showtime is perhaps the most absurd basketball game i've played, and the fact that talent means absolutely nothing on that game makes it even more amusing, like when using large uncoordinated white guys to plow over everyone and then shoot retarded layups. for those who have not played this title, picture "NBA Jam" meets "NFL Blitz". PSX II- so far, it's close between TimeSplitters II and Red Faction, but only cause the Multi on Red Faction is awesome, with the destructable environment and all....EDIT....i change my vote to transformers!!!!! i've never played transformers, but just the fact that they have a game after the GREATEST TV SERIES OF THE 80'S (and that's some rough competition right there, my friend) is FREAKING AWESOME!! I CAN'T WAIT TO PLAY IT! "You got static in your rectifiers?" "Leadership my sine function!" "That's a very sensitive junction!" "AHHHHHHHHH!!!! YOU'VE INCAPACITATED MY OPTICAL SENSORS!!!!" .....oh my.....i think i'm gonna go search for transformer seasons on VHS or DVD on eBay.... Win 95- Interstate '76...this game conquers all. Twisted Metal except you design and modify every aspect of your car (engine, suspension, brakes, armaments, along with extras like superchargers, nitrous oxide, and my favy....."Ben Hur" style hubcaps...you know, the ones Mesullah used, with the long knife-like spokes sticking out.). and there are like 30 fighting grounds with over 50 cars. Win 98- Age of Mythology!!!!! Win 3.1- Attemping to do ANYTHING on the internet..... DOS (early...1.0, 2.0, 3.x)- Too many AWESOME titles to list here....literally. the gameplay in these days was awesome. i'd say PONG or Sopwith Camel, though the F**d Simulator is worth a good laugh or two, since according to the "most accurate virtual car simulator to date", a bone-stock 1986 F**d Aerostar (yes, the MINIVAN!) will run an 11-second quarter mile, and a bone stock 1986 Mustang GT will run an 8...... .....maybe with a F-18 attached to the vehicle.... DOS (late....4.0, 5.0, 6.0)- Liero is pretty freaking awesome, though CyberDogs, DOOM, QUAKE, and Wolfenstein 3D are good as well... though 4-D racing is cool too. Overall, i'd have to go with the game that coined the term "blooded", thanks to options on the game like "500% blood". Atari 2600 - Every game is a winner here. though i'd pick the winter olympics over even "Human Cannonball" or "Fast Food", but only because you could do distance ski-jump and intentionally land your person upside-down, and watch him break his neck and bounce off the snow several times. Apple II- Oregon Trail!! NES- come on, nobody's nominated ZELDA! or "Mike Tyson's Punchout"! SNES- some flying game that thomas had at his house... Sega- Boogerman Game Boy- Tecmo Bowl, or the original "Final Fantasy"

oh man, transformers is sweet. I was able to rent it the first day it came out and all I did was play the levels to find the secret extras so you can watch old public service announcements from the old cartoons. That SNES game was PilotWings and was freakin' awesome. I forgot about that...

Udster, i'm talkin' about CounterStrike (The Half-Life mod for just multiplayer) not whatever CT is...and if you mean Diablo 2 by D2, then yes, that game is a whole bunch of running around just clicking on bad guys to kill them. Mafia is still freakin' awesome because I like drivin' around usin' the cool old guns and running over the stupid cops that you can never lose but can sit there with your tommy gun and kill them all. I still play a ton of StarCraft and another good Win95 game was TIE Fighter...
Lufia:Fortress of Doom sucks (or whatever that title was that I bought from the crazy-comic-book-guy-who-sits-at-the-flea-market-and-lives-in-his-parent's-basement for $5)

Sorry I meant CS not CT, I was playing CS which I was the CT's so that's why I got the two mixxed up I do realize that CS is different.

Lufia is no classic unless they decided to make toilet paper collectable...I mean, I had to use it for 3 weeks during my stint in the navy... LOL!!! "I remember my days in the navy; we were given one of these for the week and had to use it over and over and over..."

Thomas, when we get new computers and I get connected to the Internet, you will be my slave on Age of Mythology...however, at any game requiring advanced hand-eye coordination (read: any FPS), I will no doubt be shamefully destroyed. I do like Perfect Dark multiplayer; eight bots is a good thing. But I still don't like all the fruity colors that make the whole game feel like one long LSD trip. And there were some cool weapons, like the Laptop gun and the (albeit with drastically reduced RPM) FAMAS, but overall I still like Goldeneye's guns better. THE SILVER PPK OWNS ALL!!!What made me skip over DOOM and Wolfenstein 3D? I also enjoyed Abuse very much indeed...I just wish you got more than four save files. I recently re-purchased the original Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator, which has been absent from gaming shelves for many a year, and returned to my unrivaled position as greatest Luftwaffe ace of all time. At eleven missions on the Battle of Britain campaign, I have been promoted to Hauptmann (captain) and shot down 67 British planes on Ace difficulty (had to bail out once, though ), while on the Battle for Europe campaign I am at eight missions and 44 kills, with no planes lost (Veteran difficulty)! I love this game! One thing I found out when I had it for my old computer, though...even if you do both campaigns on Ace difficulty, and shoot down everyone in sight, as I did, the most kills you're going to get, total, is about 280...still 72 short of the highest-scoring fighter ace in history (Erich Hartmann, Luftwaffe major in the Eastern Front)...man, that bites. I think of all the racing games I've played, the top two will always be Midtown Madness and that Street Rod II or whatever it was, on Brett's computer, where you could completely customize your car and make it totally destroy anyone else's vehicle, as Thomas and I did with our mighty Belvedere...we OWNED the track, OWNED it I say!

Lufia:Fortress of Doom sucks (or whatever that title was that I bought from the crazy-comic-book-guy-who-sits-at-the-flea-market-and-lives-in-his-parent's-basement for $5) lol, I know which guy you're talking about...I got The Shadow from him... TIE Fighter may even be better than Rogue Squadron...at least when you shoot at your wingmen on there, they shoot back. And those gunboat whatchamidoodles were so freaking awesome! I knocked out a Rebel flagship with one of those things in about five minutes. TIE Defenders were pretty cool, too.

Yeah, then we kind of wrecked it by forgetting to switch out of 3rd gear...it was, for all its coolness, still a stick-shift.

uh, wrecked it? or did you just blow up the motor? well, anyways, i still have that game if you'd like it...it's not on the "NO-NO.....WE DON'T SELL THESE GAMES ANYMORE, BUT WE REFUSE TO LET YOU DOWNLOAD THEM FOR NO OBVIOUS REASON....WE OBVIOUSLY HAVE UNNATURAL RELATIONSHIPS WITH REDWOOD TREES" list put out by the >:(ISDA , so you could host it on your site even....heck, with a little visual basic scripting or a port to flash, you could play it in a browser window....dang, that would be a lot of work, but probably worth it.....

Yes, something about the motor...it...broke...or something. There's my automotive expertise. I don't know why we never switched to an automatic transmission...we had the cash. We even had some Dodge for a while that was pretty cool. It, at least, was an automatic...then one of us lost it playing for pink slips. Dude, if we could get Streed Rod (or was it Street Racing?) on the website, that would be THE COOLEST!!! I've been wanting to put some games on the site for a while now, and that one would make my website oh-so-fabulous. Oh, whenever you pop over to Auburn, I would like a few pointers on getting these stupid Java Applets working within my website. I've found some fairly nice ones that could bring SHADOW[/b][/u] that much closer to being an okay site.
