Not... exactly. (Yeesh, I'm starting to sound really backward! ) I play computer games more. Mostly Need for Speed Stuff, Microsoft Flight Simulator X, WWII flight sims, Age of Empires, the Sims, Call of Duty 2. Since the PC is a shared computer for the entire family, I can't clog it down too much with a bunch of FPSs.

So, I guess you don't play Real-Time Strategy games then?

AoE? Do you play I, II, III, or several of them?
Have you ever made any KP Sims? Do you play Sims 1 or 2, or both?

Not much. The time I would usually use to play RPGs is instead allotted to writing KP fanfiction, making AMVs, and bouncing around DA, RS, FF.net, and GJA. AoE? Do you play I, II, III, or several of them? Have you ever made any KP Sims? Do you play Sims 1 or 2, or both? I've got AoE II "Gold Edition" - included "The Conquerors" expansion pack. We used to have Sims 1, and upgraded to Sims 2. I made a Kim & Ron on our older computer, but when we transferred over to our current one, they were deleted, and I didn't have the time to recreate them. To compound things, our PC went down with a ton of viruses earlier this year, and we had to get it reformatted. Thankfully, I was able to get most of our information onto an external HD before the computer people took the PC away. Unfortunately, it appears all my games weren't copied over, so I'll have to reinstall all of them. I haven't gotten around to it because, A.) I've had a really, really busy April - August, and B.) KP has supplemented the time I'd usually use on computer games.

Well, it's kinda hard to think of something just-on-the-spot like this, without an previous discussion, but... *thinks* Probably the environment - I'm Green all the way down. Say global warming isn't real, and I'll scoff. Also, I'm a strong proponent of NASA. Anyone who says we're "just wasting money" on space and that it has "no real application here on the ground" has obviously not used a DustBuster, seen an LED, used a pacemaker, found GPS helpful, slept on memory foam, or watched Phelps win in 2008 (his swimsuit was designed with the help of NASA's wind tunnels). Overall, for every dollar we spend in space, we get about $6-8 of return through spinoff products, improved information, or enhanced knowledge. Yep! www.youtube.com/user/fireandchutes77

Do you know 'The Sims'? If yes, do you play it? See above. ronstoppable.proboards89.com/index.cgi?board=askme&action=display&thread=15345&page=2#1247145I answered before, but I'll repeat - Mythbusters, Future Weapons, Modern Marvels, Futurama, a wee bit of Avatar, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report. Let's see.... there are so many! I like "Black Wind" by Clive Cussler, "Red Storm Rising" and "Red October" by Tom Clancy, the Harry Potter books, "Angels & Demons" by Dan Brown, "Grapes of Wrath" by John Steinbeck, The Jack Aubrey/Stephen Matrurin series, by Patrick O'Brian, and "Catch-22", by Joseph Heller. Well, I've read a lot about it on Wikipedia and Halopedia, and on camping trips, when we've been talking videogames, guys have explained what the game's about, but I've never actually played it. I've played in multiplayer against a friend at a party, but I've never experienced the "story" mode.

I have not. Is he good? I've heard he's a bit like Clancy. can you ride a bike with no handlebars? XD If you measure the time upright in fractions of a second, yeah. ---- BTW, a big No-Prize to the person who can name the quote in the thread title!

I just started reading "Shadow Command" and it's really getting good they also made a game out of the "Act of War" novel. Really good game.

Have you received any e-mail alerts yet for your bookmarks, or do you have any bookmarks to start with? I haven't made any bookmarks yet. However, I may soon do so for a thread like this and/or my AMV/fanfic threads.
