- Settlers 2 (10th Anniversary version but have the original S2)
- Settlers 4
- Zero Hour
- Age of Empires (several versions, depends of the mood)
- Farm Frenzy 3 (came with this PC and is quite funny :)
- Splinter Cell (Chaos Theory, Double Agent, Conviction)
- Some ROMs under MAME (missings of the pub's machines)

Well, the list could be quite long.. Since I got my first PC (80486 ^^) back in the 1995, I love the old stuff too.
- X-Com 1-3
- Master Of Orion 1-2
- Jagged Alliance 1-2
- Heroes of Might & Magic series, since King's Bounty
- Knights & Merchants

From the newer games I prefer RTS. For example, beatin' up my friends in C&C: Zero Hour or Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War or StarCraft or any other RTS stuff.

Title: Re: Other games I play...
Post by: ST2 on August 04, 2012, 05:49:28 pm
about L4D2,
I guess it's related with the news that Valve have checked that Open GL is more efficient then Direct3D and even with the actual problems with AMD or Nvidia graphic drivers they decided to develop basically to Linux... because they believe that Windows 8 will be a catastrophe... I don't blame them... because I share of some opinions too  :P

yep. they got more performance using opengl than direct3D, even when running it in windows!

AoE 2 still one of the games that is most fum to play :)
Title: Re: Other games I play...
Post by: imus on January 12, 2014, 07:10:16 am
hehe,

AoE 2 is awesome, have you tried playing it online? (use voobly or gameranger).
Title: Re: Other games I play...
Post by: Andreas on January 12, 2014, 11:17:32 am
Long ago I have, recently I only played it at some LAN parties. It  was hard to make fair teams though because of the huge skill difference :p
Title: Re: Other games I play...
Post by: imus on January 12, 2014, 02:32:32 pm
that's why i suggested voobly, it uses elo so you can find "fair" matches ;)
Title: Re: Other games I play...
Post by: ZeroIncome on January 13, 2014, 10:22:02 am
If you're lazy and like AoE2 then definitely check out AoE2:HD on steam. It was -75% off around christmas so I bought it for 5euros.

The graphics aren't really updated, the only changes I noticed were the water and fire effects look more HD. The multiplayer is way better though. It also has ELO and works through steam if you want to play with friends. There are also some slight gameplay tweaks.

I think voobly is slightly better, that's why I said the HD edition is for lazy people :D. If you don't want the hassle of creating a voobly account, installing voobly & patching AoE2 yourself + possibly having to fix the resolution or color bugs. Then the HD edition is right for you.

Post by: Andreas on January 13, 2014, 01:32:43 pm
hehe, somebody I know found out that terminating the "explorer.exe" after starting aoe "solved" the color bug. Not really an elegant solution, bit for some reason it worked...
Title: Re: Other games I play...
Post by: ST2 on January 14, 2014, 01:12:09 am
well, after spending some time around AoE2:HD (too)... since it cames out ^^

I... wanted to kill some crazy robots...
I think someone mentioned it... but Commander Zod (http://zod.sourceforge.net/) still rocking... and opensource ^^

oh well... maybe good for the players that visit some "abandonia" type of sites ^^
But, like OpenTTD, no fancy graphics... but the fully gameplay is there :)
Title: Re: Other games I play...

Post by: YorVeX on August 20, 2014, 12:32:57 pm
i am not the type of guy who plays a single player game a second time, nevertheless worth mentioning are the following games i have played in the past:

as for multiplayer games i played Minecraft some time but not recently. maybe at some later point i will play it again. also i played natural selection a lot.
the only online game i am still actively playing as of today is counter strike: global offensive. there i am mostly playing matchmaking with a fixed team of steam friends using teamspeak, currently i am proudly holding the "distinguished master guardian" rank (http://www.pro-hl.com/images/prohl/csgo_ranks.jpg). but it seems that i am the only one in the OpenTTD community that also plays CS, otherwise there doesn't seem to be any overlapping between OpenTTD and CS players.
