How about you folks?

I bought a Play Station just for a couple of games.

I used to be a big D&Der and have some of the old school books. It got old real fast because 99% of D&D gamers are childish or ridiculous to try to reason with. I had to walk away.

I then picked up Rolemaster or Middle Earth (almost the same) which is a very realistic game system. It's joked as "rule master" because it has a lot of rules. But was way more realistic than D&D ever was.

I also played Shadow World which is fun...if you don't have a heavy handed DM.

I since have stopped playing that as I wanted to get on with other things.

Now I just play GTA, Grand Turismo or Star Wars Battle Front.

I can't get interested in many games because I pretty much hate the type of people involved. If you know what I mean. It gets old fast.

Due to "life" I've cut way back. It's down to

xbox 360: Call of Duty, Halo, Civilization Revolution
PC: the occasional Diable, Starcraft or Warcraft game (very rare)

I have been absolutely FORBIDDEN to touch World of Warcraft, under any circumstances, due to the known fact that my husband will lose his wife forever!

I still paint Warhammer miniatures, tho.

Used to play Warhammer 40k, had a Blood Angel and Tyranid armies (almost fully painted).

As for computer games, started off back with the Atari ST, playing games like Carrier Command and Nebulus. Played a few RTS games, along with the SimCity family of games. Last major game I got into was called Stars!, even inspired me to learn HTML and do my first website,

Don't really have much time for games any more.

ah nice, have you seen any of the 4th edition models? The tyranids......they look so much more....Tyranid-y

Spikes and fangs and all sorts of nastiness!

Pretty awesome!

For example:

New Hive Tyrant:


New Carnifex:

Oh, confirmed just a couple of days ago;

Dawn of War II will have the Tyranids as one of the races.

I know. Effing awesome!

I had a Space Wolf army. My army was confiscated by PAC Security and I just never had the heart to build it up again. Only one squad of bikers + a couple extra guys escaped the holocaust.

But recently a couple of boys who are starting into it asked me for help painting, so we'll see what happens. I might end up actually playing. I doubt it tho because I'd rather sink my dough into modern combat, or possible WWII era. (Don't have a loads of extra cash sitting about, you know.)

I'm assuming ya'll are looking forward to WAR (the MMORPG)?

Oh yeah, and I've always loved SimCity, but I haven't played it since 2000 was new. And I cannot get through Assassins Creed dang it! I just stopped playing. (Yeah yea I know I'm a girl but the controls are wierd and I have NO patience anymore.)
