So what games do you play, if any?

Me, I play CounterStrike: Source and Battlefield 2 in windows while when I spend time with Ubuntu it is Frozen Bubble and Tetris that rank high on my list.

[Protostar]

Unreal Tourament '04 and Simcity 4

[briancurtin]

NCAA Baseball 06 on PS2
any and all Gran Turismo games on PS2

i absolutely despise computer games.

[jpkotta]

PySol. I'm so boring.

[Protostar]

On the PC, mainly XCOM, the age old Battle Isle series (still unbeaten for scifi strategy), Freeciv and Doom (using Doomsday)

On the PS2, a bunch of stuff, mainly Resident evil, silent hill, medal of honour, call of duty and a bit of Champions of Norrath

Hey I went outside 2 weeks ago.

[megamania]

dope wars
weed price is sky-high! (if I remember correctly...) ;-)


p.s. the last games I played: Bejeweled 2 (palm), Yars' Revenge (Atari 2600), Klax (Atari Lynx)

[bored2k]

Although I recently got Serious Sam: Gold (that's a package containing First and Second encounter), I just started a fresh game of the ultra hip No One Lives Forever.

[fuscia]

weed price is sky-high! (if I remember correctly...) ;-)

you do, indeed. my favorite is when i find someone dead on the subway who has left behind cocaine.

Hey I went outside 2 weeks ago

new asus catalogue come in the mail?

[Lanrond]

Enigma above all.
It reminds me of the old Oxyd days...

[yanns]

OpenSource : Nexuiz !!

[midwinter]

Cube

[tom-ubuntu]

I do not play on my PC anymore; too expensive to upgrade it every 6 months. Playing a lot of videogames. Currently Far Cry Instincts on the Xbox, Zelda OOT on N64 and Donkey Kong Country 2 on SNES.

Oh, and another reason is for sure that I do not like to have Windows installed at home.

No I had to get box with my new parts from the porch :)

[darkoptix]

I also play this little online game with friends called Ogame. www.ogame.org . It is pretty cool about building up a space galaxy.

[Stormy Eyes]

I play Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne, Final Fantasy X-2, and Destroy All Humans. That, and I still take a shot at nethack from time to time.

[Artificial Intelligence]

Native linux: NWN, Postal 2, creatures 3, got more native games but this is it what I'm playing at the moment.

[bonzodog]

If anyone can tell me how to get Simcity 3000/Simcity 4/Rollercoaster tycoon 2 working on an AMD 64 dapper 64 only box, let me know. Otherwise, I am restricted to lincity-ng and nexuiz, and gnome-mahjonng is *very* addictive.

[TrendyDark]

quake 3 and enemy territory :)

[DeadEnd]

Far cry I finally finished the other day , Half life 2 which I am only half way through, but my favourite all time play everyday online game is Americas Army, which is free and has a lnux version although I must say I play all these on my Windows xp box.
I am a Pipeline ***** so if you see HOT_METAL on op4 give me a heads up ill go easy on on ya

[frodon]

Steam (counter strike), wolfenstein and warcraft III.

[eriqk]

I hardly play games anymore, but I like Quake 2, Doom, UT and Homeworld. Especially Homeworld.

That said, nothing will ever beat Tetris.

Groet, Erik

[Stormy Eyes]

I remember Homeworld. Didn't Yes do the theme song?

[knalle]

oh, i love homeworld

but now i only play Enemy Territory and Starcraft

[Alpha_toxic]

Silent Hill 4, but I stoped few days ago, cause I think it's starting to affect me.... what.. is this... I can't... I can't get out of the room... No seriosly this is the first ever horror game/movie/book that managed to work it's magic on me. Usually I just sit back and laugh my guts out, but this time WOW. I guess I'll go back to my older games (Twisted Metal 2, NFS4, Tekken 3), and after 3-4 days of relaxing fun, I'll be back to killing Walter Sullivan (or his ghost actually).

[orlox]

Currently playing GBA roms on my PC, right now I'm with Megaman battle network 3. Normally I prefer to play on my PS2, and I was recently playing Castlevania LOI, but my dualshock controller got broken:( ...

[eriqk]

I remember Homeworld. Didn't Yes do the theme song?

I don't know, actually (but it would appear so. I didn't know they were still around in '99, though). I was too busy drooling over the pretty spacecraft. Chris Foss and Peter Elston as inspiration, who can beat that?

Groet, Erik

[Master Shake]

Yars' Revenge (Atari 2600), Klax (Atari Lynx)

Retro-gaming goodness!

Yar's Revenge totally rox!

Currently -- Rampart / Gauntlet, Marble Madness / Klax on my GameBoy Advance SP (high score on Klax 1,709,831), Animal Crossing and The Spongebob Squarepants Movie game on the Gamecube, Animal Crossing: Wild World on the wife's DS, Knarly Mazes in Windows, and Pingus and Tali in Linux.

[Sp@z]

I play UT2K4 the majority of the time sometimes Counter Strike Source and Vampire the masqurade. I do this all on windows. I only have ubuntu on my laptop now, it barely runs UT99 :(

[PatrickMay16]

I mostly play Megadrive and Super Nintendo games using emulators. One of my favorites is Megaman X.

[raublekick]

Lately I've been playing my Nintendo DS like mad. I need to get the Super Princess Peach game soon, it got surprisingly good ratings.

I'm rolling through Shadow of the Colossus and Guitar Hero too.

[uberlaff]

UT 2004... I don't know what it is about that game but I'm totally addicted. I'll try in get in at least a game or two a day.

also I'm getting back into Doom III and I just got the demo for Quake 4. I've been thinking about getting a DS. But I don't have a commute and I just can't justify using at home when I'm so close to my computer.

I don't use mine anywhere but home or friend's houses, and it's the best purchase I've ever made.

[uberlaff]

nice... maybe I'll pick one up when the DS Lite comes out with that new Mario game.

[DirtDawg]

I love video games.
Lately, I've discovered x-com ufo. Love it! I played Battlefield 1942 until a Windows patch made the sound disappear. Battle of Wesnoth rawks. Nethack, of course. Grand Theft Auto games, as well as Splinter Cell games. Lots of others, but thses I play the most consistantly.

[xequence]

Unreal Tournament 99

[ubuntu27]

I play Battle for Wesnoth [http://wesnoth.org/] , and the games that comes in Ubuntu by default. :D

[megamania]

Retro-gaming goodness!

Yar's Revenge totally rox!


:-) When I received my brand-new Yars' Revenge cartridge, on my first game after 20 years I accidentally managed to find an easter egg (the programmer's name popped up and the game stopped)...

I'm pretty sure it will never happen again...

[commodore]

I sometimes play footbag in real life, but I don't play anything on the comp.

[TechSonic]

Hey I went outside 2 weeks ago.


I haven't even looked out one of my Windows or gone near the door in 2 weeks.



I play
Quake 1 and 2
Warzone 2100 (Best war sim ever)
Graal Online 4 (A Zelda style game)
America's Army Special Forces
Legends

[AndyCooll]

Haven't played games for awhile.

Otherwise, Football Manager on Windoze. It's the only reason I still keep an XP partition and when I get FM working on Wine I'll be able to get rid of it.

On Linux, I've just found Bygfoot and am giving that a go.

:cool:

[-Rick-]

ut2004, xmoto, warzone 2100, cube, kolf

Its actually pretty easy to uncover...

1) You must hit the Qooutile with the Zorlon cannon while the Quotile is in his fireball form. Wait until he launches it.
2) NOte the thin black line going down the middle of the screen. If a certain part of the yar touches that line when the explosion ends, the game ends, and the programmer's initials show up.

The autor of Yar's Revenge, one Howard Scott Warshaw also programmed three other games for the Atari 2600

-- Raiders of the Lost Ark
-- ET
-- Saboteur (A-Team)

Saboteur was never released.

ET and Raiders however both have easter eggs in them. In Raiders, you can uncover the yar and the programmer's initials, and in ET, you can uncover the Yar, Indiana JOnes, and then the programmer's initials.

Off the top of my head, I don't remember how to do those, but do a search at the forums at http://www.atariage.com and you can find them.

Other trivia about Yar's Revenge..

1) It started out as a port of the arcade game "Star Castle". The programmer deemed it impossible to port to the 2600, and so he altered what he had to the current form.

2) Yar is "RAY" backwards. At the time Atari's head was "RAY Kassar". He named it YAR as a little suck-up to Ray in the hopes that the game would be released. It worked. :D

[drgreborn]

In Ubuntu:
NWN on the Legacy Of The North server
Uplink

In XP:
F.E.A.R
Dragonshard
various Japanese Ren'ai game (currently 'Ayakashibitu')

well yeah that's about it. :mrgreen:

[bored2k]

Me and my brothers recently switched to Medal of Honor: Allied Assault.

[Arktis]

I've got a links section to all the Linux games I play up here (http://ubuntu.z42.us/modules.php?name=Web_Links&l_op=viewlink&cid=7).
Other than that, any fun windows games I can get running *well* on Linux, such as Starcraft, Homeowrld, Half-Life 1 and 2, CS:S, Diablo 2, etc.

[mrgnash]

Guild Wars... although I don't play it so much anymore...

I'm really looking forward to Elder Scrolls Oblivion though... I wish they'd port it to Linux, but even then, getting hardware acceleration for the Mobility X700 under Linux is waaay to much trouble and far too risky.

[cityismine]

I play Enemy Territory, unpatched client.

[Jucato]

Used to play MMORPGs in Windows (Ragnarok Online and Tantra). Gave that all up when I switched to Linux. None of these work with Wine/Cedega, at least the legal servers don't.

Now on a quest to find a good Linux RPG. :D

[antenagora]

@Fenyx
I am playn' Themanaworld (http://themanaworld.org) right now, a GPL MMORPG in 2D. It' s a good game IMHO.

[Ultimo Aliento]

In linux, i play Enemy Territory and True Combat: Elite.

In windows... im a long time gamer :D, i never buyed a console in my life, all my games are for PC, right now im playing Guild Wars, Warcraft 3, and Warhammer 40K Dawn of war.

@antenagora: thanks for the link. I'll check it out. I'm flattered your first post was for me :D

EDIT: I just saw some screenshots! OMG! why are the people naked? :D

It's MMORPG for adults :cool: :mrgreen:

[chimera]

America's Army (squad-based very realistic FPS) (www.americasarmy.com), Flightgear (GLP flight sim) (www.flightgear.org), Unreal Tournament 99(FPS), ysflight(free combat flight sim) (www.ysflight.tk), Enemy Territory(WWII FPS) (http://enemy-territory.4players.de:1041/)

[Mr_J_]

KReversi has been high up there since I installed it.

Granted that was yesterday night, but I usually don't play games in Ubuntu so actually playing it past the first trial is sorta big for me.
In windows I usually play mmorpg's although I've been getting disapointed with them more and more...

[Bandit]

UT2004 every now and then.
I want to play GuildWars some more, but I cant stomach windows and Cedega doesnt work we with it.

BTW, since I upgraded to 64bit a month or two ago I havent even tried the newest version of Cedega. Anyone know if its better or even if they are ever going to release a 64bit version.
Cheers,
Joey

[Josef K.]

just played kotor and morrowind (with cedega)
now I'm playing quake4 (native!)
I'm waiting for restoration project to play kotor2
and hoping cedega will support a full featured oblivion

[WildTangent]

I play all my games on Windows, because despite how good my linux computer appears, it just isn't capable of gaming :( The only game that's even playable on it is CS 1.6, and even then, it lags alot (low FPS), to the point where I refuse to play it. On Windows, I play Battlefield 2 (my stats (http://bf2s.com/player/W1ldT4ng3nt/)), EVE Online (worse than WoW for addictiveness in my opinion), Quake 4, Counter strike 1.6 and Source, Half-life 1 and 2 (I've got like, almost all Steam games (http://longlivemarneus.serveftp.net/Justin/screenshots/steam_games.JPG)), Halo (PC version rocks!), and many other games. My current obsession is EVE, it's alot of fun, but it will empty your wallet quickly :-P

-Wild

[Bragador]

I use emulators to play nintendo games and super nes games.

I also play battle for wesnoth (free open software game, check it out if you like stragegy/rpg games!)

Of course I don't CURRENTLY play games since I'm in my exam period *big sigh of doom and gloom*

I think the lite version of Cedega works with 64bit, read somewhere.

I did not use to play any games in Windows... And then... suddenly... I discovered Linux games... like Frozen Bubble!!!

[galgoz]

Right now I play Day of Defeat Source and Guild Wars

[Josef K.]

just install 32bit libraries via atp then force-architecture your cedega deb package

[Jucato]

OMG! I tried out Knoppix a while ago and it had Frozen Bubble installed. I've heard about it but never tried it out, until I saw it in Knoppix. And before I know it, I was playing it straight for almost an hour! It's so addictive... I have to install it now!!! :D
