Re: Your Game Collection

I keep my PC games in the most logical place: on my bookshelves.

Re: Your Game Collection

You got gameholders? You posh bloke! Us commoners don't need none o' that nonsense!

It's mounds of CD cases all the way!


Although that's why I changed to downloading music from iTunes; too many CD cases! I could build a CD beanstalk and travel up into the sky with the amount I have...

Re: Your Game Collection

I prefered the old Jewel cases for games - in those days you not only got a game, but also a well written manual with backstory and fluff and stuff -- manuals these days just tell you how to install and how to use a mouse - and a list of key commands and that is about it 00 I want my mini-book-like manuals back!

Re: Your Game Collection

Oh, I'm sorry. Yes, I do understand that one. The manual would have 4-5 pages of story history, and sometimes you'd have to find the keyword in it, to authenticate the copy of the game was legal. I liked those!

Plus, I don't think they make games like they used to (well, duh! ). In the old days I loved playing Curse of Enchantia, Discworld 1 & 2, Bubba 'n' Stix, and Monkey Island...




Yes, as you can see, I'm a hardcore gamer.

Re: Your Game Collection

That's an impressive tally there Lucien. Why no score for Deus Ex? Best game ever made!

Re: Your Game Collection

I'd post mine but I probably have 200+ games for everything from the SNES and Megadrive through to the 360, Wii and PC and they are invariably scattered all around the place so naming all of them could take some time.

Re: Your Game Collection

Well over 500 here, going back to the Atari 2600. I had a list going at IGN, but I stopped updating it a couple of years ago. There were 466 games on it at that time; my guess is I've now got about 530.

I found Dungeon Siege I quite easy to be honest. Me and my brother did the multi-player campaign together and I completed the single-player a while back. However the second one was a major disappointment and I didn't even get past that jungle bit before quiting.

Re: Your Game Collection

Thats a good point actually, I usually wait till they drop from the thirty odd quid new, to the budget releases, in some cases although my local game shop does a good 2 for thirty.

As to Dungon Seige I being easy its ok if you get past the big ice cave I got lost in it and cannot for the life of me find me way out. Doubly frustrating as I have done it before!

DS II, I finished the main quest fairly easily, but its all the little sub quests which I'm working on, going to have to cheat ah the wonders of solution sites on the web.

I will play Home world soon actually.

Forgot to mention

Fire warrior PS II
Warzone 2100 PSI (still a favourite game)
Soulcaliber II
