Webs Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 Only two. WarBirds is one. WWII Online is the other. Both are amazing experiences. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppy Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Hidden and Dangerous 2 Sabre Squadron, Fair but not as good as the original, I hope that BF dosent fall into the same trap. Ive made several posts preaching my opinion I can only hope that BF will not go off on a tangent based on only one aspect of CM. poppys 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDork Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 I tend to bounce around a bit with my games. I figure if I'm playing a lot of games at once instead of just one for 5 hours a day that I won't burn out as fast. Works okay. Lets see here... Computer: SimCity 4 Civ3 Conquests Diablo 2 Console: Mario Kart: Double Dash Fable Soul Caliber(Dreamcast, oh yeah!)

Leopard_2 Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Originally posted by BigDork: That's trouble. Girlfriends and CM don't mix well. Actually, my wife loves watching when I play CM, because of it being turn-based so she can actually follow what's happening. Then again, my wife took my example, took an IT retraining and is now a Sun Certified Java Programmer, so she isn't your average girlfriend mold probably. As for the thread's question, I re-discovered the joys of Close Combat (5) after I finally found someone to play against (the AI sucks after a while, and I prefer to play against people I know). I couldn't fully enjoy "Panzer General" because of a strange bug that made Stukas worthless and no-one could reproduce. I have Talonsoft's West Front / Eastern Front II, and the airwar games "12 o'clock high" and "Battle of Britain" here from a budget purchase which I didn't have time yet to play. As you might realize, CloseCombat 5 was so far my only concession to real-time, which is on purpose - I find most real-time games to put too much of a time pressure on what should be recreational activity. (Same for CM online with turn time limits.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leopard_2 Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 Oh, did I mention that she's quite interested in military tactics, too? Between her, my 4 month old daughter and my computer, I'm a happy camper indeed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppy Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Hidden and Dangerous 2. Not as good as Hidden and Dangerous 1 even with its faults. poppys 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throwdjohn Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Yeah Falcon, that's how it is for us young'uns. Women our age don't like ANY video games. You have got to be underground with the stuff man. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMik1 Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 For me it's Call of Duty: United Offensive and The Operational Art of War: Century of Warfare (TOAW:CoW for short). BigMik1 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macphail Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 i expect to be playing rome:total war, as soon as my buddy gets on a plane and brings it to me. i also play IL2. flight sims are only good when you have a prop, and guns. jets and missles seems kind lame for a game. need for speed underground was alright for a few days, but got to hard. far cry got boring after a few days. i just dont take CMAK out of the drive unless im burning a cd. then it goes back in real quick. oh yeah, i play COD for a few minutes now and then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
