Same here.

Any old school PC gamers here? Who remembers OG Unreal Tournament? MMMMMONSTER KILL!!!! :D

How about Half Life? Or a game called Thief (dark project, and then gold, then metal age, then deadly shadows) circa 1999ish. Dark stealthy goodness. That game really helped me refine my burglary career, I made so much money back then. :notsure:

N64 and Goldeneye were an awesome quick set up for a console game with four friends. We used to sit around playing that high on mushrooms for hours. We could never get the damn game started, but when we finally did it was hilarious.

Favorite car in Forza (1) is the Ferrari 355 Challenge I think, it revs to the moon, sounds great and handles awesome. :popcorn:
Unreal Tournament was awesome. I mostly played Counter Strike though.

Agreed on the F355 Challenge. That car was great to drive in that game. I also really liked the Evos and STIs, when fully modded out they were :plaid:

OG Unreal Tournament was fun as hell, same with Quake 2 (I played a lot of the Weapons Factory mod).

Then I found MMORPG's and was hooked on Asheron's Call for years.

We played Quake the most at school, but my favorite shooters were first Splatterball (paintball-based) and then Magestorm (magic-based with classes and levels).

Splatterball used to cost $1.99 PER HOUR to play on AOL. :troywax:

LOL, oh yeah I do remember counter strike, decent game for sure, but the intense fast action UT had me :jizz: back for more.

Never heard of the other games, I mostly stuck to consoles when I wasn't busy building skateboard ramps and riding BMX. You ever seen a 50 year old skate a half pipe, or smoke a group of kids on 20" bikes around a dirt course? I have 35mm pics. :D :mindblown:

Never played Doom.

When I'm not treating local public roads as though they are my personal racetracks :stig: , my favorite course on Forza is Maple Valley circuit. Hell, even the short MV is fun to zip around. Second favorite, Sunset Peninsula Infield.

[user not found], retirement check and food stamp card doesn't cover new game consoles. :triggered:

[user not found], I was never on the intrawebz with my xbox but maybe I will. I'll look into it, my sister is a super computer nerd, she can maybe help me get online.

McTroy doesn't believe in the inferior console.

I'm excited, doe.
:dat:

I'm still hoping to keep slowly improving my rig to the point of eventually having real motion involved too, which requires PC. That and I keep thinking that some year I'll have time to play RPG's again even though it probably won't happen.

I've got haus shit to worry about. I'll get the game when I've got my console set up again sometime in November.
Meh, I'll probably wait until Christmas and just ask for it. I'm not gonna have much time for games soon between work, school and then a new :baby: It'll probably be sometime next year before I've got a schedule hammered out and have time to play anything again. :iono:

Play while the :baby: naps on your lap.
That's kind of the plan eventually, it's just gonna take time to get to that point.

Is Forza 7 just for the new fancy xboner and pic? Or will it work on my ancient poverty xboner?

Yea, I don't have a 4k TV either, so that doesn't matter.

Awesome...I'll be picking this up over the winter for sure.
