Re: Top Five Recent Games
mean that Secret of Mana?Do you like RPGs?
What the hell is that supposed to mean? Secret of Mana was one of the best games on SNES, and remains one of the greatest RPGs all time you git. Spit that name with contempt again and I will be forced to deal with you further, sir.

Games Played:

Secret of Mana


I LOVE Secret of Mana. The german translation is really bad though. ;(
Well, I've probably played it like 20-30 times. The next turn will be with the english version.


BTW, did you know there is a SoM Mod for HL2 in the works?
It turned out to be not 100% connected to SoM, but will be similar in many ways. I've agreed to join the modding team as soon as SoL is complete.

I can't wait for the World of Mana game series!

Re: Top Five Recent Games
I always wanted to play the Ultima series but never got round to it. I had Champions of Krynn though. One of SSI's Dragonlance series and that was quite good. I used to enjoy typing random characters to the inventory section of the game save files to give myself bizarre magic items. I once got a +6 Adamant Dagger Awl Mace. The +6 presumably comes from the baffling effect on opponents when they see it.

Re: Top Five Recent Games
Terminal Velocity

I've still got that installed on my gaming comp somewhere. I really need to play it again.

Wolfenstien 3D (A leapord doesn't change her spots, not even in 15 years)

That was possibly the first PC game I ever played. Then again, I was nine at the time, and I hadn't got the first Freespace yet.

Yep, I mean that Secret of Mana  :D

Playing (ok, did play, finished off the mana beast yesterday) the english version.

The german translation, as DaBrain said, sucks. Always laughing about those childish spell names. Hmm, a SoM Mod for HL2? Sounds interesting  :)

Re: Top Five Recent Games
I've been on somewhat of a DosBox craze the last couple of weeks (as I haven't had the free time I'd want for a modern game like Oblivion for over a month now), so my top 5 recent games looks something like this, in no particular order:

Master of Magic
Star Command
Buck Rogers: Countdown to Doomsday
Privateer
Ultima 6: The False Prophet

And also got in a playthrough of Full Throttle recently. Man, that is still one sweet game.

Re: Top Five Recent Games
I have not played any recent games lately due to the lack of good rpg (Gothic 3 :) or racing sim games, so my top 5 look like this

Wing Commander 4
F1 Challenge '99-02 CTDP 2004 Mod applied
Grand Prix 4 2005 Mod applied
Sam & Max
Wing Commander Saga :)
Wing Commander Saga: A Legend Is Reborn | WingCenter
 
Tolwyn’s reputation for risk taking with other people’s lives was considered  to understate the facts. The admiral’s willingness to sacrifice anyone or anything to achieve his objectives had long been lauded in the popular press. He was “the man who got things done”.- Colonel Blair

Yep. Shame about it being so short and having the worst soundtrack in a Lucasarts game ever.

Re: Top Five Recent Games
Hmm, here's the games I've played most recently, in no particular order:
1:  Super Smash Brothers Melee (It's nice having buddies who never get tired of playing this.)
2:  Kingdom Hearts 1 (Never played it before, so borrowed from a friend.)
3:  Descent 2 (Multiplayer fun!)
4:  Freespace Open (Voice Acted Derelict FTW!)

Oh god, I feel sick all of a sudden.  I really shouldn't be playing KH until 5am...

it definitely could've gotten by without the 'fighting' in it, it was -really- unneccessary

Re: Top Five Recent Games
Four or five times, at least. It's a brilliant sequence.

I really should get around to finishing it. I kind of lost interest once Jack finally gets his hands on a weapon -- the game seems to lose something when you're no longer completely defenseless.
