I thought Unreal Tournament was rated mature. :???:

Comes up what version you play. The german version has no blood. So it's maybe a bit lower rated. But I don't think Lem'ka and Lemeri plays the german version. ;P
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: Lemika on August 31, 2004, 04:04:27 PM
You can turn all the blood off if you want to, actually. And the taunts. You can turn those off, too.
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: Andi on August 31, 2004, 05:20:10 PM
I know. I have the english version, too. ;P
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: Lemika on August 31, 2004, 05:49:39 PM
Oh. I guess you would have to if the two versions weren't compatible, but I don't know if they are.
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: Andi on August 31, 2004, 05:56:49 PM
They are fully compatible. But the most fun things is: If you have a german version and kill someone with the english versions both of them won't see blood. But if you have an english version and kill someone with the german version both of you will see blood and pieces of the hitten boddy parts. :P

That's interesting. I wonder if the same thing works if one person has the gore settings off, but you don't.
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: G3K on August 31, 2004, 07:46:02 PM
Yeah, those kind of settings are along the same lines as graphics detail, so they'd only apply to your PC.

Lemmings, Sonic, Rayman and I want to add Dungeon Keeper 1 & 2, Half-Life & Cie and all Tomb Raider.
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: Ice_Eagle91 on September 18, 2004, 01:31:10 AM
Lemmings and Rayman (don't count Sonic, I voted that by mistake!  X_X I never played Sonic in PC)

I used to play Rayman when I was about, say, 4-6.

Lemmings, of course.

Other games I like are Q*bert, word games, etc.
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: Andi on September 18, 2004, 07:59:49 AM
Is Q*bert censored or is that the title?
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: G3K on September 18, 2004, 11:07:05 AM
Yeah, that's the title.
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: DragonsLover on September 19, 2004, 02:58:32 AM
What a coincidence (correct?)!

We just find this old game in its original box for the old Atari. :D
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: namida on September 19, 2004, 05:31:37 AM
I downloaded the freeware GBC rom of Q*bert. It looks quite... interested.
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: Lemika on September 27, 2004, 12:13:28 AM
All right, first of all, I'd like to slip another favorite game of mine into the stack - Knights of the Old Republic. And that falls under 'Other' as well.

And I'd also like to point out the reason I didn't vote for 'mature games'/didn't put Unreal Tournament under that category. No matter the rating, I personally discount any games rated such for violence or gore, and instead basically consider those to be... well, I don't know what. Some sort of nebulous 'I like this game, and I don't think it really deserves that rating' category.

Is Postal 2 a mature game? (walking around in a small town, killing civiliants just for fun (btw, you don't have to kill them, only if you want),  rob a bank, put gasoline over people, burn them, p*ss them off, give them an electrical shock and make them run again...)

I don't know why I censored myself. Maybe because I wanted to avoid an argument.

p*ss them off


That's not the only thing you piss on, though, is it? XD
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: Andi on September 27, 2004, 05:32:20 PM
Yep ;)  And if you piss  on them when they are alive they make funny noises and call you a "Sick bastard". :D This game is full of swear words. So nothing for Icey.

I voted for lemmings and others.

Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: Andi on October 23, 2004, 12:41:50 PM
Ah, Stunts.... I really liked that game. :D Must be somewhere in my house on an old CD.
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: Burn-iT on October 24, 2004, 02:38:13 PM
I forgot a game, it fals under other:
Rome: Total War
Everybody should play that game!
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: G3K on October 24, 2004, 06:20:15 PM
Heh, yeah, I read a review of Rome in a magazine... certainly looks like one awesome game.

Recently I downloaded MAME (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator, for the uninitiated) and a couple of old (early 80s) arcade ROMs (namely Tempest and Star Wars) - it's funny to see how far we've came in terms of graphics.
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: piainp2 on November 10, 2004, 01:06:25 PM
I voted Lemmings, Other and Sonic, in that order
(Other being Timesplitters 2, I LOVE that game!)

EDIT: Not forgetting Perfect Dark. Love Perfect Dark! :D

-Tower (currently under construction)
-AOE 1 and 2 (I switch back and forth)
-Tzar (Tough computers!!!)
-Stronghold
-Stronghold Crusader
-Starfox 64 (approx. 1360 hits tops)
-Starfox SNES
-MKDD (I am nearly perfect at this game)
-Castles II: siege and Conquest (possibly the best game ever(Computers are EXETREMELY hard!  They are incredibly tough! EASY is HARD!)
-Donkey Kong Country 1 + 2 (1's a little too easy though)
-Super Mario 64
-Super Mario Sunshine
-Super Mario World
-Super Mario Kart


...


Uhh.......well, it looks like I've got quite a few favorite games!

I'd recommend everyone here tries as hard as possible to get Castles II.  Trust me, the game is great.  Yeah, it's DOS (works w/ windows 98 though), but it's good anyway!

Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: Timballisto on May 17, 2005, 07:24:51 PM
I just noticed that in my list I forgot to put Lemmings! &#A0;How could I have done that? &#A0;Well...

-Lemmings (still haven't beaten this one!)

Edit:  Actually I haven't beaten a single Lemmings game...I need to work on that... :'(
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: Andi on May 17, 2005, 08:14:34 PM
I bet some of the demos... :D

Anyway I played damn a lot of World of Warcraft the last weeks.

Repton (well, the Repton series -- Repton 3 is the best of them).

Don't know if any of you have even heard of this game? It's very old; I was playing it on my BBC Micro when I was around five or six, seventeen years ago that is. Absolutely brilliant though.

If anyone's curious at to what it looked like, my Repton Cheapo style is nearly ready.......

Incidentally, that computer died around twelve years ago, but last year I finally managed to complete Repton 3 when I came across a remake on the Internet. One of the happiest moments of my life.  :D
Title: Re: What's your favorite computer game?
Post by: Timballisto on May 21, 2005, 01:50:13 AM
...actually, I'm ashamed to say that I haven't beaten any of those either...
