Thank you! So do I, and it drives J crazy. He's like "Why don't you just play the game? Why are you always making new people and houses?" Because that's what I like about the game, silly!


There's a cell phone that will let you play Sims 2 on it. I can't remember the name, but I want it. It would be dangerous for me to have, however -- I'd never get anything done ... I'd just be playing Sims all day!

My husband and I are both gamers- we actually met playing Tekken Tag. We joke he just married me for my game collection
We played WoW together on and off for a few years, but donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t play together much anymore since he tends to stick to online games and I prefer my console games. I am surprising him with a Wii for his birthday next month, so I am assuming Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ll at least get him away from the computer when the new Smash Bros is released!

The last game I played- and would highly recommend for its originality- was Okami for PS2.

He also like Call of Duty, but thats not as fun to sit and watch from the sidelines as Oblivion. I would like to play with him, but the darn controllers are way too complicated for me!!


We hope to get a Wii soon, it has a lot more of the games that I would enjoy playing.
I love my Super Nintendo! I rock at Donkey Kong and Mario (the all stars game with Mario 1, Mario 2, Mario 3, etc) I also love playing Yoshi! I will never give up my Super Nintendo. I want the Nintendo NES old school model for Bubble Booble and such!

DH just swapped his xbox for PLaystation II. Right now he is playing Final Fantasy X. Too many cuts scenes for me. I miss him playing X-men on the xbox.

I am addicted to Sims2. I haven't played in awhile thought. Seasons is awesome! I don't have pets yet or the stuff packages.

I've enjoyed gaming all my life, but right now my addiction is World of Warcraft. I've been too busy, and had to resign leadership of my guild because I didn't have the time to run it. My business picks up so much in the summer that I'm often quoted for saying "WoW is a winter sport."

To the person who was talking about hearing of couples fighting over sharing an account, I can't even imagine having to share an account lol. But you'll probably think this is funny. When I was running my guild we had a really great mage player who was very talented with his class. He was actually only 13 years old but was very mature. Well all of a sudden his skill sort of faded. He still played ok, but I had to remove him from my A-List for raiding. One day he logged and whispered me that he was suprised I hadn't removed him from the guild and that he would now be able to play more because his punishment was over. I was wondering what he was talking about and told him I'd seen him on every day. He even contributed the max to guild events and farming. He told me that his mom locked him out of the computer room for a month because he was caught using his cell phone in class. The next day he told me that he found out when his dad overheard him begging his mom if he could tell the guild so he wouldn't get kicked out, he felt sorry and curious and ended up taking over his character while his son had his punishment. His dad bought an account after that and joined our guild, although the dad never reached the same skill level as his son lol. But that was pretty crazy. Must be nice to have a dad like that.

Hahaha Cairo that was a really cute story :x hahahaa. My dad plays WoW ALLL THE TIME and gained a lot of weight from it
I don't know why he likes MMOs so much because he's pretty terrible at them, but I guess as long as he has fun it's okay. I would probably still play WoW now except I.. erm... don't wanna pay monthly fee ^^;;

I don't buy any of those Stuff packs for the Sims since there's so much awesome custom stuff out there to download for free


I love my SNES too!!!!! I bought one of those multitaps on Ebay a while ago so that when my brother and cousin come up to visit me we can all play Bomberman and Secret of Mana together hehe.

Jim really wants a PS2 because of God of War 2. What other good games are out there for it? I remember I wanted one when it first came out but then I started focusing more on my school junk and lost track of everything :x

That movie was strange, confusing, and disturbing! It was strange to find out that the movie was based off of the video game not vice versa! As for PS2 games that I like... Gran Turismo 3, Gran Turismo 4, Tony Hawk Underground, bf Likes Tiger Woods, SRS, Grand Theft Auto San Antonio (I think)... Ahhh there is so many we have I can't keep track!

If you were considering the system anyway, there is a Harvest Moon out for the PS2 called Save the Homeland. I liked it a lot, but a friend of mine said it was lacking some of the features of other in the series. HM: A Wonderful Life Special Edition is also out on PS2 if you donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t own the GameCube Version.

There really are too many good games just to name. I think the PS2 has quite variety of games (and is backwards compadible with the old playstation games), so youâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]d definitely find something you like and the games are very reasonable since the system has been out for a while.

Well, here is story for you. i was doing i pug group for upper black rock back in the day, Well a priest in the guild joined it. i waved at him he waved at me. All was going fine until people started asking for buff;s
from whispers,
him: do i need to do anything?
me: ? yea your funny man.
him: no really, i just took over this account.
me: err, well you have played wow before right?
him: no. first time.
me: oh boy,

i had played a warrior, a rogue and a shaman, to level 60(at the time) i had no idea how to play a priest. lets just say that was a very very painful couple of hours(along with a 20 gold repair bill). we never would have finished it had not one of the real priests come on line.

Oh man how terrible!! I could never play a priest though, not observant enough of other players and I feel really really bad when someone gets super hurt ;_; I was a guild officer for a while, but then the other three that were in charge disappeared (well, I disappeared first, but then they all went away after like 2 weeks :x). Six months later I logged back on just to see what was going on and was shocked that there were actually still some active people in the guild o_O I guess they weren't big on doing guild stuffs or something.

YES! I'm a PC game nut. I still play super old PC games (anyone remember Starcontrol 2? came out in the 486 era). Still enjoy Age of Empires 2, Starcraft, Fallout series, Kings Quest series (and any other 2-D adventure game really, Full Throttle, The Dig, Monkey Island series, etc), Morrowind, too many to list...

Lately Oblivion has been eating up all my time, would like to get into STALKER, but want to finish Oblivion before I get addicted to STALKER.

Recently a group of fans did a remake of Starcontrol 2 that will run on new machines. Can get it at "Urquanmasters.com" if you're interested. A very interesting space adventure/space combat/RPG game. They don't make games like this anymore, and haven't made them forever.

)
