You know, there are enough good games out there already to keep me happy until I'm an old man (ie, next month ) Diablo is one of those networked games I'd love to play when I get more time. Looks like 'l have to look at PS Torment as well! I didn't understand before how closely it was related to BG. After I've finished building my new house I look forward to having more time for the pleasures in life, including games and maybe even enough time for a occasional D&D session (or perhaps I am fantasising again). LOTR rocks for ever, it is the biggest influence ever on D&D & RPGs, and Peter Jackson is a demi-god for finally doing the film and getting it 98% right. :notworthy: |

Make sure you include space for a D&D gameroom in your house, and then you will have to have an "excuse" to use it ;) I really think you will like PS Torment.. it supposedly has an even better story than BG1 -- I think it came out in '99, somewhere between BG1 and BG2 but other than sharing the engine it's not related... ie not Forgotten Realms material. I think Planescape was a similar worldset on paper as well... While I agree that LOTR rocks, I'm always on the lookout for more non-traditional fantasy fare... Anyone remember Krull? (the movie not just the game) Loved it when it came out but looking at it now it's dated. Still a decent watch if a bit hokey. Another topic... Used MAME audio samples and artwork for the first time today, just experimenting and playing around. Oh my goodness, what a difference..! I actually remember playing Space Invaders in the arcades and now that I see the artwork, remember the planet background and so on. Can't wait to load it into my cab... |

I am a lucky man. My new house will have plenty of room for D&D sessions Even more importantly, my wife supports my arcade hobby. And allows me the room for it. She also knows that while my hobby keeps me busy, I won't have time for anything .... errrr ..... else. :P She can see that it makes me happy, and also that I can perhaps make a few $$ because I just sold my Galaxy Cab (sale #2). Now I feel happy but also sad because I've invested a lotta love in that thing. But then, a good craftsperson does ...... |

Congrats on selling your cab! I can commiserate the good/bad feeling but look at it this way, now you have an opportunity to build yet another, better cab :) Found some more PC-that-might-look-good-as-an-arcade games to try: Tomb Raider II Metal Gear Solid Virtual On Cyber Troopers Guilty Gear X Star Wars Battle for Naboo Star Wars Starfighter (really, what's the difference between these two games??) Found some of these at a used bookstore this weekend, and some over at Home of the Underdogs... really a nice arcade download section there... |
