Reply to: Can you remember (2)...

[nomadd]

What I really liked about it was that when I visited New York, I kind of knew my way around. While wandering about I'd tell my wife how I picked up a hooker around here and murdered her or how I shot a tramp over there etc

Now that's a holiday to remember.

Never really got into GTA San Andreas but loved the last GTA. What I really liked about it was that when I visited New York, I kind of knew my way around. While wandering about I'd tell my wife how I picked up a hooker around here and murdered her or how I shot a tramp over there etc

Never really got into Morrowind.

But Oblivion, Skyrim anf Fallout - wow! Must have burned several weeks worth of my waking hours into those. Kinda weird to think that you spent, in effect, several full days of your real life living in a fantasy world!

EDIT: Someone mentioned GTA SA. Which brings to mind the countless real days of my life spent in GTA Vice City. My addiction to that over several months even had my family commenting on it!

Yep, the GTA games from 3 onwards took up a lot of my time as well but I could never be bothered to go for 100% in any of them. As I mentioned earlier, that dedication has long since departed.

PS. Morrowind was superb, it really kicked off the open world RPG genre that Oblivion, Skyrim and Fallout III and New Vegas have all built on. It was also great because there weren't really any limits to how powerful you could become. I could jump over towns and mountains by the end of it. Got a little tricky if I only needed to jump over a wall though

Indeed in fact the first 3 3D GTA's all had great replay value and really did change what was expected of games

Was not so keen on the 4th one - to real not enough lunacy

hopefully that will be fixed for the 5th

God knows how many hours I've spent playing Morrowind, Oblivion and now Skyrim. Hundreds and hundreds for sure.

Ice Cream......

Carmeggedon 2 with Splat Pack!

I remmeber my Lad coming up to me and saying, 'Dad, Mum deleted Carmageddon of my computer but it's ok - I reinstalled it...'

He was three at the time and had a lovely Dumfriesshire accent back then. Bright lad too, he also complained at me that he'd renamed 'Ignition Demo.exe' to 'Ignition Full Version.exe' and it's not full version. Still a running joke that in our house 15 years later.....

What a responsible Dad, eh!!?

Maybe it should have been 1941.

GTA San Andreas !

but as dOOhg says

Footy (Pro evo)
Driving (GT5)
Golf (Everybodys Golf)

[d000hg]

Get bored after I complete a game and then just play missions/levels I like. Prefer games without an end, like footy or driving, where even if you get to win the title there is always another season. With shooters, I just like to play against bots although I'm back on QuakeLive at the moment - anyone else play?

Not a game with a storyline, Unreal Tournament 2004 ate many hours of my time. UT3 wasn't the same.

Most of this was while I was single, then I got married again.

Games in the past few years that I played a lot would be Borderlands 1 and Skyrim.

Unreal Tournament was AWESOME!!! Actually that was the last first person shooter I ever played.
