I've played that game so many times. Lethal and non lethal. And I haven't discovered all its secrets yet.

It's a great game. I beat the entire thing completely(And found the null driver + sector Y) The hardest part I can remember is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CqxnHl7Q4Rw(I love the scrambler). Maximum charge ultimortal Tor is quite a pain too though.

Asha on Ultimortal difficulty is one of my favourite boss fights ever. Very intense, fast battle, the music, the fact that you're on a timer for finishing the level...

I haven't been able to defeat maximum charge Tor on ultimortal yet though. One day... :tongue:

Battlefield 3; even though it has caused me much roid raging, it is still a great game.

And that's it, it's the only game I play besides Skyrim. :P

Oh, let's see...

- Sim City (all of them)
- The Sims (2 and 3, at least)
- Civilization (ditto, except maybe III, but that was still kind of good :dry: )
- Monkey Island (yet again, with 3 this time)
- Age of Empires II (only II, actually)
- Star Wars: TIE Fighter
- Crusader Kings
- Europa Universalis (I-III again!)
- Warcraft (you know the drill)


...I think the lesson here is, when I like a game in a series, I end up latching onto that series like a leech. :tongue: Well, with one exception.

Mind, these all pale in comparison with the time I spent in the Elder Scrolls, or Ultima, or Baldur's Gate games, but hey. Have to play by the rules of the thread.

Oh lord, the time I've wasted on FFXII... :ahhh:
I should really get into Age of Empires and Civilization...almost everyone listed them, haha.

I'm wondering why whenever I see Age of Empires in a list its always just Age of Kings. It is the gold standard by which all other RTS games must be judged, but that whole series is phenomenal.

Ah, Age of Kings was so amazing. I spent so many hours on that game just by myself. If I had been able to play that game online back then, oh how different my current gaming interests would be. :)

Any mention of the greatest third person RTS ever made, called Sacrifice?

Also, Serious Sam, Half Life (1&2), Star Fox (I am the [censored] Star Fox), The Super Mario Series, Starcraft I, Diablo (1 and 2), and Dawn of War.

What surprises me is Age of Empires always gets a mention, but never Cossacks: European Wars... even though it has such similar (and arguably better) gameplay.

I think it even outsold Age of Kings by a couple of million, so it's not exactly an unknown title.
