Zebidee:
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:

vidmouse:
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...

Zebidee:
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 ......

vidmouse:
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...
