When we die we come in retro heaven, where all old computer & console ends, together with all the software.

Today I set up my Amiga and tried a few games on my 32 inch "IwishIwasbigger" Sony Bravia LCD, and was surprised by how decent it looked. It's not perfect, but it's more than acceptable for me. Tried games like Soccer Kid, SWOS, KO2, Monkey Island 2, Flashback, ATR, Ultimate Body Blows and so forth. What a nice little machine that "Amiga" is. Weird (but utterly loveable) name though.

Other than that, I've played a bit of Okami. If you like Zelda, you need to play Okami. Unique graphics, great soundtrack and atmosphere, extremely japanese and wacky. Really like it, have played around 11 hours so far. Supposedly a game that takes around 40 hours average to complete, without messing around excessively.

I'm starting to play Diablo 2 with Lord of Destrcution again Haven't played it for over three years now, but after the first hour of play I must say it's like I played it just yesterday (in a good way ). I'm really looking forward to collect sets and gems again

Forget about getting the better stuff, all the cheaters constantly drain the item pool.

I am playing Civilization DS. The game is simplified only a little from the original and it makes for one damned addictive and dangerous game to have. Imagine being able to play Civ wherever you want, pure heaven.

Also Castlevania: Portrait of Ruins (DS). One of the best Castlevanias I have played so far.

Don't hate me for that, but I'm playing offline... Maybe if I played through it in single player mode I'll play online... for the first time ever

I love Civ and didn't know there is a version for the DS. I really might consider getting one of these thingies myself. There are some games I like to play, but since I'm nearly all the time I'm not sleeping in front of a PC () I really have to think about this. Would be cool to also be able to play the last two hours a day I'm not able to reach a PC

Hmm I'm all over Bionic Commando on X360, what a wonderfull game that is and one of the few oldschool classics I like on that system.
Allso I'm still on the Remake of original Tomb Raider on 360, I allways seem to get back to that one, really looking forward to the new installment in that series.
On c64 I'm having a blast with The Last Ninja first part and the superb Hawkeye has caught my attention, very addictive game that one
Offcoz I'm allso grinding my days away in world of warcraft, just can't help it

I played it twice but never ended it. I played as NEcromancer... maybe I must replay it as a fighter-classed character

Last time I played as a Barbar and a Druid (). Now I'm playing a Paladin. He has both the ability to make a lot of melee damage aswell as to heal himself. I'm already level 12 (just started yesterday ) and damn this game is really addictive

Just started playin Diablo 2 again aswell, think it was the announcemant of Diablo 3 that did it, but I dont think D3 will be out until 2010.

only other games Im playin a little is Titan Quest Immortal Throne and the superb Audiosurf - great game for MP3 files.

sadly, not playin any retro atm except Laser Squad [Amiga] the other day

I am playing "hunt these specific SPS files because nobody nice seem to have a hold on these as of now" .


I can't quite recommend playing this game, since :
  • It doesn't have a trainer & does not belong to the 'hit buttons faster than your opponent' type
  • It involves a lot of Admin butt licking (might please some EAB members because of this, but it's not the reason why I picked it up)
  • It's ultimately pointless as the people who can deal with these files have their own ways of getting them


Ok, I might sound *slightly* cynical here, it's just that as Autumn approaches, my "Dark Scorpio" nature overshadows dramatically my personality.

Nothing wrong, mate. Just trying to figure out what you meant. You're emulating a Mac or using a Mac to emulate something else? Whenever I see the word Mac my ears perk up.
