Favorite Video Games

[uuu]

Off topic: I don't play any video games. I don't even watch TV. This puts people off sometimes, but I know people who do even less than that.

30. Team Fortress 2 before they sold out and became a flea market for useless, crappy items.

Currently:

1. Minecraft
2. Uncharted Waters Online

All time:

1. Fallout 2 - Perfect story, nice blend of humor, open-ended, self-made mini-quests (Kill all the prostitutes in New Reno) they didn't try too hard and leave you feeling empty and unsatisfied like the newer Fallouts.

Draws:

1. "Completeness" to the world/game.
2. Freedom
3. Story

Looking forward to:

1. Star Wars: The Old Republic

PC/Console:

1. PC - haven't owned a console since selling my Wii back in 2008.

Does anyone remember a game called megalomania? I had it on my atari st probably about 20 years ago. It was similar to games like civilisation and was probably the first game of this type. This and a game called dungeon master were my favourite games as a kid.
