GriffinCheng: I agree, zombies are a lot of trouble in Thief. They

keep coming after you even after you hack them down with your sword.

Flame arrows do a nice job against them, though. smile.gif

Don't forget to play Thief II when you are done with Thief. smile.gif

It may interest you guys to know that the same team that made the first X-Com

is making a sequel called Freedom Ridge. Once again you'll be able

to battle aliens while in command of your squad. The graphics are

excellent. I just hope they keep a high quality turn-based combat

system in place. Real time is no good for games like this. smile.gif

I keep myself going on a mix of Flanker 2.0 (and can't wait for 2.5--MiG-29s), Counterstrike, and cocaine (in order to eliminate sleep, which is unecissary given work, games, and CM).

Other then CM, I've been playing Medal of Honor 1 and 2 on the Playstation.I know, it's a puny console game, but still the only FPS out there that lets me blast nazi hordes with a BAR.....Wish someone would quit making counter-strike mods for all those FPS's out ther and go WWII!!!

P.S. so it's the X-Com team doing that Anne McCaffrey Game, eh? Sweet 3D Graphics and Turn-Based Squad play? That game is sounding better and better.......

CM is clearly unique and I certainly love it tons. But I am one of those strange people who DO still play other things, partly to be able to play with friends (multiplayer). But now that will change, eh?

Here are the disks I've been keeping handy lately:

Close Combat "5"

Sid Meyer's Gettysburg (and Antietam)

MS Combat Flight Sim 2

I just ordered Steel Beasts, and I would be rushing to get B-17 II, but they dropped the multi-player ability, so...

No one but the enemy will tell you what the enemy is going to do. No one but the enemy will ever teach you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you where he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. -Ender's Game

Blondes, possibly brunettes with a redhead or two thrown in. I really enjoy dressing them up in all the mods, and then taking the mods all off again. Particularly the unit that come with skirts.
