I sometimes play Halo 3, or Forza 3.
Gamertag: FelixS13

Use to be an addict on Diablo: LOD, and I did get into WoW for a little bit.


For the most part, I'm into N64.
Super smash bros, Worms, Conkers: Bad Fur Day, Mario Kart, Mario Party (2, I dig a lot).


I also like Sega Genesis. Had a lot of good obscure games.

Consoles I own:

N64
NES
SNES
XBOX
XBOX 360

Consoles I own:
Playstation (x2)
N64
Nintendo
XBOX360 (My brother's, but he lets me use it)
PS3 (My girlfriend's, but it's been at my house for going on a year now. SHE DON'T GAME)
I don't see the point in listing emulators, since anyone can easily obtain any emulator in under ten minutes... BUT I HAVE THEM ALL


Anyway, is anyone else as excited as I am about Bioshock 2? I have a prepaid preorder, which gives me special online content, so I'm going to be at EB 10:00 sharp Feb 9th. No one will see me for months and I CAN'T WAIT.

Anyone hit up the Videogame poetry show last night? Just sayin', it had poems about Pong, Zelda, Halo, and other games. It had sketches from Loading Ready Run, and a whole bunch of TVs set up with systems to play on.

Team: Nashville Predators Theme: Be NASHVILLE

save 6: 2 days, 4 hours, 33 mins, 37 seconds

Team: Pittsburgh Pens. Theme: high offense... pretty much same as above game.

save 8: 1 day, 3 hours 37 mins 58 seconds
Year in game: Oct 29 2008
Team: Oshawa Generals. Theme: Follow John Tavares career. Current new game i started.

save 9: 13 Days 10 Hours, 58 Mins, 3 seconds
Year in game: June 8 2025
Team: Columbus Blue Jackets Theme: one of my first games...

save 10: 13 Days, 6 hours, 52 Mins, 38 seconds* i left the game on by accident once for this one....
Year in game: April 5 2010
Team: Vancouver Canucks Theme: Youth players or be very cheap budget wise

I have had a few other games that i have deleted that varied in time played from 2 days to only a few hours.

JUST LOOK AT THIS GAME PLAY

REAL IN GAME ACTION

OH i also do play other games sometimes

Just finished Dragons Age: Origins
playing Mass Effect again.

I absolutely love the Baldur's Gate series and Torment. They are always installed.
Same with Arcanum (made by the dudes who did fallout 1/2 but left interplay) STEAMPUNK
Fallout 3
Counterstrike source
left for dead
yeah i have more....
Troy... we need to talk about Hockey manager mode shit in various forms. I have wasted waaaaaaay too much of my life simming through seasons and dynasties with various 'themes' to see what happens. I have never heard of this NHL Manager game, but I think it would rule my life. I worked on NHL '09 of PC and 10 for Xbox and Ps3, and I had some sort of sim going while I did pretty much all of my reporting.

get a better job and hang out more.

I would totally be down for this! I obviously spend way too much time doing dynasties. I started on NHL 04 then don't know how i found out about this game but i didn't buy any new NHLs for awhile since i was playing this. Then the few times i try and go back to the NHL series so i can actually play games as well as manage i find the managing is no where near the level of depth that i need now hah.

There are only 2 North American versions (3 with the europe version)
NHL Eastside Hockey Manager 2005
Eastside Hockey Manager 2007

They canceled the one after this as the first one 2005 had high piracy. 2nd didn't have enough people buy it (had to use a code /buy online)

I have only briefly played 2007. I should one day save up the money to play it.
been using 2005 mostly.

I should get you into this you can also do online games of it hah

The manager mode in the NHL series has reached a point that I can't really imagine a five year old simulater being more fun than it, but I'll definately give it a shot. I actually really enjoined doing dynasty sims with NHL 2000 as late as 2007. It got less fun once I new which players were really easy to get but would light it up (Christian Dube, Rico Fata, Hnat Dominicheli, Johan Witehall etc..) Basically any young fast player that actually kind of sucked in real life would be awesome in that game, in sims and gameplay. It's probably still my second favorite NHL game. I'm very intreagued by this manager game though. if you find a free download I'll add it to my work PC.

there is the free trial for 2007 which only lets you play till the trade deadline.
Also this manager is cool cause you can also do any CHL teams, most europeans leagues etc you can also play.

you can scout like freakin 14 year olds playing on junior AA or AAA team

anyways if you find a torrent for 2005 or i guess i can upload it too there are some no cd stuff / mini disc images that make it work. The game starts to randomly generate prospects after the 2009 draft year. So John Tavares draft class has some real people but after that i think its all randoms.
I think if i bought 2007 there is a community keeping the rosters up to date with updates.

Monster Hunter on PSP

I wanna start playing some D&D again as well. I used to play it a little bit, but really casually because friends weren't really into it. Just got the Player Handbooks (1&2) v4 from Seattle.

On the weekend I went to a flea market.

Scored:

Super Smash Bros (N64) - $15
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 - $5

Then I made the impulse purchase of buying Dragonball Raging Blast for Xbox 360 - $60

It's pretty fucking rad though.
