I like Maple Story despite its cuteness. It's the only
multiplayer online RPG thing I enjoy mainly cos of its 2D platform
gameplay. Kinda odd that I actually met a 20yr old girl in it who
lives in the town next to mine in the 'real world'. As for anything else online, well I don't enjoy FPS or RTS or most RPG's online at all. I tend to stick with emulated stuff like Street Fighter Alpha 3, Super Mario Kart or any of Capcoms arcade scrolling fighters. |

Yeah, I also play Maple Story. I recently started playing it again, after finding out you could sign up for a new account again... I used to have an account with that game before that, but I forgot both my password and username, and the 'Forgot password?' and 'Forgot username?' didn't really seem to work correctly... Anyway, I'm now at around the same level as when I stopped playing the game then (Warrior, just got on level 14 again yesterday)... And the good news is that the game works great on my own PC (aside from some lag when there are lots of players fighting, but I always pick a quiet channel), so I can play the game a lot more  Other than that I don't play any other games... I used to play Soldat online a lot too, but that game won't run on my own PC so I can't play it very often... Same goes for Half-Life 2. ------------- |

I used to play runescape. Then i got bored.  I dont really like the word based rpg games like Kings of chaos and stuff. Those bore me really easily I played WOW for a while and i like that. But i play it at my friends house because im too cheap to actually buy the game  I really want a flash based internet browser game like runescape cept better to play. Ive been wanting to play one of those forever. bah. Maple story? Can i have the link to that? sounds interesting. |

I'm usually on the Bera world with my archer RobinLoxley. But I ain't had much time to play recently. Sometimes I just go on and mess around pulling faces at all passerbys using the F keys |

| Online games... I'm a FPS freak... love Battlefield 2. Used to play Half-Life, Counter-Strike, Day of Defeat, Medal of Honor and Call of Duty. I guess it's the only online genre I've really played. |

Aspereta (now http://www.Illutia.com - www.Illutia.com ) http://www.Mysteralegends.com - www.Mysteralegends.com Well, I quit, but its got a really small community and a whole bunch of things to do. Both of 'em are MMORPGs and Illutia is a freshly-wiped one, so almost everyone sucks ------------- "I was minding my own business and walking across a pebbled path, and a Duck started giving me the business." |

Ah yes, Gunbound... Another game I used to play a lot. I recently installed it again on my own PC, but unfortunately it runs quite slow  Everytime I join a game and everyone is ready to play, I see their loading percentage go from 0% to 100% in just one or two seconds, while it always takes me about half a minute to load  Because it doesn't run very good on my PC I don't play it very often... and the fact that I'm not really good at it probably has something to do with it too I also downloaded Priston Tale a while ago... it seemed like a cool game, and according to the system requirements on the game's site it would run on my PC. After the long download I tried to install the game, but I got an error at around 5%  I tried installing it many times (on both Win2000 and WinME) but I kept getting that error, so no Priston Tale for me. Maybe I'll download it again sometime, to see if it works then. ------------- |

priston tale.. its paid now >.< but i just read that the guys from softnyx ( http://www.softnyx.net - www.softnyx.net ) are making something quite alike (they even got crappy english translations like PT had ;P) and i yesterday played gunbound again, and like naso told me on msn, the new system of HIRING items sucks (yes hiring, no more buying :S) ------------- ▄▄█ ▄▄█ ▄█▄ ▄█▄ |

I only play FPS/twitch games. I can't stand MMORPGs.
CS 1.6 & UT2004 are the ones I've sunk the most time into. Nowadays I hardly ever play games. Only infrequently will I play a "shootemup" (Ikaruga, Gradius, Doukutsu) to get a quick fix for the twitch. Every time I sit down at a game nowadays, I get an urge to get off my ass and program them. So that's what I do with all of my old gaming time. Oh, that and pay bills, work, study.... blech. |

I rarely play on Trench Wars- but if I do, I only do it with as many friends as possible. Then we all attach to a Terrier and I drive. We call this "Voltron mode". |

I don't play a lot of online games, but if I do I just head on over to yeti-sports.org or Ebaums world for those dinky mind games. I especially love this game Orbox, you've all got to try it:

Hmm, SHMUPs... I love those games I should play Ikaruga again once, it's been a while since I last played that... Damn awesome game What is Doukutsu though? Never heard of that game, and doing a Google search only brings up Doukutsu Monogatari (which is an awesome game, but not what I'm looking for)... ------------- |
