Just thought to take a break from all of the techie stuff and see what fav programs (most likely games) you all are playing (using) on your system.

Well, right now, I'm playing Dice Sliders on Yahoo. But I'm sure that's not what you wanted. I've put off playing any games until I build my new computer (1000 T-bird) next week-end. Then I will be playing:
Mechwarrior 3 and 4
Freespace 2
Crimson Skies
Nox (For a friend who likes the game but frequently gets stuck)

If you haven't tried it, and like fun flying games, play Crimson Skies. It's the first game in a long time that surprized me by how good it was. Plus, I got a free copy of it from MS. Be careful though, it's a hog.

Sacrifice! It's so addictive, my brother and I are refering to each other as Sac Heads.
NOLF is superb.

Nope, you need to have DirectX 7 or higher. The box lists only Win 95,98,ME and 2000.

Sorry, but this is an incorrect statement.

Windows 2000 is built using NT technology, but it is far from being Windows NT 4.0.

Windows NT does not support Direct-X 7, so this game will not work correctly, if at all, on Windows NT 4.0. Sorry.

Currently I've been playing, of coure UT
a little quake, got tired of Diablo 2 and every once in a while a good game of Dungeon Keeper 2.
Now don't laugh I just recently just discovered Worms 2. It is <b>extremly addictive</b>. If none of you have ever played it you can download a demo at:<A HREF="http://www.worms2.com" target="_new">http://www.worms2.com</A>

WORMS 2 IS THE BOMB, i cant believe i forgot to include that in my list, it is the most addictive turn-based game you can buy, man the concept is just so intruiging (sp?), i cant seem to beat the missions though, im on the last 5 and theyre hard

If at first you don't succede, skydiving isn't for you.

Hey maybe we should try to get an internet game together? Have you ever been successful at it? Maybe this will help spread the addiction to other posters.

Let's see...

NOLF (just beat it, very cool)
CS (it runs nicely on a pii333 so i stick with it and satisfies my multiplayer jonesin')
Rollercoaster Tycoon! ( love this game )
Dungeon Keeper (just reinstalled it, still cool -- how does DK2 compare?)
Just installed the BG2 demo, tryin' before I buy (was thinking of getting the first one for the low price of 20 and starting some characters there first. thoughts?)

Reply to tfbww

Reply to phsstpok

i'm not seeing nearly enough counterstrike on this list. Hey, it's the greatest, man. And I get a very playable framerate (around 30 fps with very rare drops) at 1024x768 with a PII300 and a 8meg agp1x i740 based gfx card.

and then my roommate bought me FF8 for my birthday a few weeks ago... haven't done homework since... Ever since FF2 I've loved those. Thouhg it seems to tax my system much more than half life/cstrike.

And when i'm not playing around I'm working with soundforge/acid/vegas doing music and soundtracks.
