    Here's a tapestry of my favourite games:

    http://www.musicalotaku.com/cgi-musical … app=bgames

    Gha, it's been ages since I had a good gaming session... I'm going through gaming-withdrawal.

    Ah, and on a side-note: I have select scores that match some of the games in my collection: whenever I play "Mystery of the Abbey" I play The Name of the Rose, whenever I play "Army of Darkness - The Board Game" I play the matching score, of course, whenever I play "Seafarers of Catan" or "Anno 1503" I play Pirates of the Caribbean, whenever I play "Caylus" I play Flesh + Blood, whenever I play "Taj Mahal" I play City of Joy, whenever I play any of many train-related games I play Silver Streak... Fun! spin


    I'm not familiar with a single one of them.

    The only board game I play regularly is Scrabble. Occasionally Chess and Risk.

    lol, understandable. That's why I specified "European" board games. They're of a different breed than the American stuff, altogether. American games fall in one of three categories: abstract (such as Scrabble and Chess that have no concrete setting), wargame (such as Risk), and inane licenced game based on the current pop culture hit (such as "American Idol - The Home Game").

    But European games are usually based on resource-management. Remember Simcity or Civilizations on the PC? European games are kinda like that. It's an addiction, I tell ya. But they're sadly not a widespread phenomenon, as you can tell from your not having heard of them. American games you can expect to pick up anywhere like Wallmart or Toy 'R Us. European games however, need to be hunted at specialized outlets. Places like hobbie stores. Where you could buy RPG manuals, you could probably expect to find some Euro-games, too.

    Oh, and you can also play some of these online, apparently. Haven't tried myself, but I know "Catan" and "Puerto Rico" can definitely be played online.

    It's standalone, but the story won't make much sense if you haven't played the first one. Get both. They are well worth the experience!

    1. Larry Laffer
    3. I.J. and the Fate of Atlantis. Sorry that's the best I can do.
    4. Er, you don't mean Hong Kong Foey, do you? That was a dog and, what, badger?
    [EDIT: Oh wait, this was about video games right? Couldn't be that, then]

    9. They're about stealing used N64 cartridges from the GameStop store.
    10. Weren't there three missions with 6 levels each?

    That is the best I can do, in all my snarkiness. I'm afraid you out-nerd me. I bow to you. Then again I probably could come up with my equally obscure set of geeky questions!

    I do know 8. is Miles "Tails" Prower, 'cause it was written in the manual of the Sonic The Hedgehog 2 Game Gear version, which was one of my favourite games (and one of the toughest IMO) in childhood, which I've now got on my cellphone! biggrin

    The first boss is one of the toughest I ever encountered in the Sonic games!!

    5. I think 13 if, I'm not mistaking. But the cake is a lie!
    9. Stealth
    10. I believe the first chapter was free in the shareware version, so six; maybe seven with a bonus level?

    Try the first one Demetis, 2/3 of the game is pretty amazing: the action, the plot (really mysterious), the mood (very Lost / Predator-eque). Too bad it gets worse by the end, but pretty enjoyable.

    I found the plot in the second one a whole lot more interesting, although I must admit, without prior knowledge of why stuff is happening (that you learn in the first) it's not going to make a whole lot of sense at points.

    Btw D, when playing Warhead, look out for the hidden frogs (and Scrat from Ice Age!). Pick them up and throw them and they explode. wink
