So, whats everyone playing?

Moved into college dorms and found out the ports needed to play WoW are blocked on the university's network. So my grand plan of playing WoW have dissapeared......

So what other games are everyone playing? I have a 12" 1.5GHz Powerbook so most games will be in my computer's range.

So was 1942 for a while, but it got ported eventually.

I'm playing Sonic CD. That game was sweet. GameCube owning Sonic fans need to run out and get the Gems Collection.

I'm also working on my Wizard in NeverWinter Nights. I love playing as a Wizard. It's so fun sending spells every which way. big_smile

Re: So, whats everyone playing?

I let my WoW subscription drop because I have to work my ass off for school. And because of an arm injury, Im currently playing a SNES emulator instead of my usual Counterstrike Source and WolfET.

Re: So, whats everyone playing?

I'm playing the Halo demo on a dual 533Mh G4 no less. WhooHoo!

Actually I'm surprised it plays at all. I've been playing at work for a few weeks with a coworker on our G5's, and I downloaded it at home this weekend on a whim. It works great, I turned down some of the graphics options and it's smooth as buttah! - mostly - it does slow down a bit sometimes in the demo level, but not on multiplayer online.

Oh, and Urban Dead - I'm one of the dead now /scary music/.

Re: So, whats everyone playing?

In no particular order: Puzzle Pirates, Runescape, Diablo II: LOD, and (on my SNES Emulator, when time permits -- or lack of time); Earthbound. Ye Gods, I love EB.

I had to put the Install file for Puzzle Pirates on my 20 Gig iPod to transfer it to my College Powerbook. (G4, 17" ... I think). Until I figured out that I had to specify a different download point, as the Desktop was locked. hmm

Re: So, whats everyone playing?

While I'm procrastinating on actually working on my documentary, I'm playing SSX Tricky on my PS2 at the moment.  After not playing it for a long while, I'm finally getting a knack for doing tricks.

One day I'll finish FFX-2.
