Okay Guys. This topic is kind of lame, but I'm curious to see what I'll get.

When Responding to this topic, you must A) state your favorite game on abandonia, and/or why and B) your favorite game of all time and/or why.

Have fun!
:D

Bouncing Babies! :w00t:

Just kidding.
Favorite game on Abandonia: propably Sim City 2K, or Ascendany, or Transport Tycoon Deluxe. I can't decide, I played all of them a lot.

Favorite game ever: Morrowind. No doubt there, Morrowind.
I played Morrowind, pretty much without playing any other game, for more then two years.

This link should be quite revelant to your question. :)

Best games on Abandonia are: Abuse, Ancient Evil, Battle Chess for Win, Castlevania, Darkseed, Mortal Kombat series, Prehistorik series, Prince of Persia series, UGH.
I'd say all of these. :D Because they were my childhood, well, most of them.

Best games ever: ??????? All good for me... :D

Best on Abandonia : XCOM
Best ever: Fallout 2

Best game in Abandonia, IMO XCom. A very cool game, very interesting after so many years, and the best premise in a game ever. :-)


Best game of all time for me, Colonial Conquest. Because it is my favourite game! Strategy, multiplayer (if you want to), lots of replayability, different countries to rule and lead to world conquest, EXTREMELY fun gameplay, and keep playing it almost weekly since 1987. So, it must be good...

Best on Abandonia: UFO - Enemy Unknown

Best: Morrowind (there are loads I could put here but Morrowind is the only one which keeps going on for ages).

Very good responses, definitely very good. Since I brought up the subject heres what I say:

Best Game on Abandonia: So far, the Merchant Prince (kept me going for six hours straight, once!) I love the strategy and the economic twist (especially buying Cardinals, that made me crack up)

Of all time: I would have to split it up into a couple factions, since I have so many.

Strategy: Alpha Centauri
Adventure: 5 days a stranger(also on abandonia)
Action: Freespace, definitely the best space shooter ever made
Simulation: Sticky bear town builder (just kidding) LOL

Nice answers, I'll have to look into these myself

On abandonia: Civilization II

Favourite game: after quite a bit of thinking I must say Morrowind. Morrowind doesn't exactly have the greatest graphics now, and the standard game can get boring and there are numerous flaws (that combined with the fact that I'm terrible at it) but in the long run, Morrowind is the kind of game you can just pick up and play no matter how many times you've played it before. You'll always find something new to do, instead of taking the boat as you're used to you could decide to walk to some place for once, exploring a new path and just enjoying the atmosphere. I don't think i've ever had that with another game.

best game on abandnia : dune (1 not 2)

best game ever : world of warcraft

Best game on abandonia er......... Skullkeep (but get the first eh?)

best game of all time - Paradroid!

A lot of people say Morrowind is their favorite. Thats weird, cause I've never heard of it before. I would definitely have played it if I had! :crazy: :crazy:

Best game on abandonia: CIVILIZATION 2

My favorite game of all time - Galaga 90 for Turbografx

I like Civ2 too A LOT! I have played that game for two weeks straight at times. The strategy is just wonderful. :ok:

Best game(s) on Abandonia: UFO:EU, MoM , Ascendacy, MoO , Civ ,X-COm TFTD
Best game ever: Uhh.... Hard Decision....I will probably go with majority and as ex-Morrowind addict I say: Morrowind, followed by Alpha Centauri, Civilization and Half-Life

Best Game on Abandonia: Blood. It just makes me smile like a kid and grin like a maniac every time I play it. :D

Best Game Ever: Monkey Island ofcourse. Do I even need to explain that?

You know! I really loved Blood! Until mommy took it away! Boooohooooohoooo!
"Ya know i will not have games with guns in this house! nyah nyah nyah!"

It was great while it lasted.

Best game on Abandonia WAS Crusader: No Remorse.

The best game of all time is most definitely Fallout 2.

Agreed. :ok:

The best game on Abandonia.....is Princess Maker 2(At least thats my favourite).

Other "My-favourite-game-of-all-time" is Slash´em(Improved version of nethack).
Its as good as Fallout 2.

Abandonia: Another World, great story, eye - candy graphics and pretty challenging, pretty much like a well done psi-phy movie.

OF All Time: Alone In The Dark, the gran-daddy of all horror adventure games. It's sweet, without it my favorite series of all time wouldn't be born, Silent Hill

Abandonia: UFO, Enemy Unknown

All time: Perfect dark - I literally played that game for weeks (in hours!!)

Abandonia: Alone in the Dark( come on, it started the whole genre)/UFO Enemy Unknown a gret game, ut kinda hard.

Of All time: God not Morrowind...hate that game, sorry sorry, ummm....I guess I'd have to say Half LIfe 2, ya its over hyped, but....if not for CS:S remeber the editor kit, and ppl are gonna do brilliant things with that, its the best part of the whole game.

Best game on Abandonia - Lemmings. I just love those wee critters.



Best game ever - Maniac Mansion. Just hilarious. :D

Haha, ya lemmings is so much fun...too bad I can't get it to work :(, come to me DosBox...come to meeee

The best game on Abandonia is surely UFO, followed by a lot of other great games.

The best game ever is without any doubt StarCraft + Broodwar. Great story, great singleplayer, perfect multiplayer, detailed graphics. I could write books on how great this game is.

Moogle

I couldn't get Lemmings 2 Tribes to work, but Lemmings, Oh No More Lemmings, and Holiday Lemmings all work fine with VDM Sound.

I love those Lemmings :wub:

anything by sierra on-line

Best game = C&C,UFO,PM2,Civ2,Stronghold,FTA2,Ultima,Btech,Setl lers damn, so many great games i just can't decide :crazy:

Of all time = Final Fantasy VII is still the best game i've ever played ever. :kosta: the sound are great, the music are great, the graphics and CG's are great, the characters and animations and i still cant get over Eyes on Me and great great great :kosta:

:ok: :w00t: :Brain: :Brain: :Brain:

:ok: Best game on abandonia is: Alien incident(Great for an adventure game)

Best game ever is: Final Fantasy 10 ( 11 could be better)

:ok:

The best game of all time (in my opinion) is Fallout 2.

Best game on abandonia : UFO (but the recent Warlord 2 makes it a difficult choice)

Best game of all times : Daggerfall.

:ot: wasn't Daggerfall recently retired from abandonware by whomever holds the rights ?

I think mostly if you combine all of the votes,

The Best Game on Abandonia Is: X-Com UFO Defense


The Best Game of All Time Is: Fallout 2

Can't say I'm seeing any pattern at all emerge.

Best game on Abandonia and best game I've played so far: Sword of the Samurai.
It's the perfect blend of action, strategy, RPG, arcade, simulation and management, all carefully assembled into one beautiful game that gives you the same feeling as a kid that gets his first sugarcandy apple on a funfair. I can play it and enjoy it, then play it again and enjoy it, then play it again and enjoy it. Only game that has that as well, is Civilization 2, but it's a bit too much of the same thing all the time. SotS gives far more variation.

*claps*
That was pure poetry. Excellent job Kon-Tiki.


I myself have never played either of those games. Although I find the combat system in the Civilization games rather repetetive.

Best game on abandonia would be Ultima 7. I'm not mad that we're unable to download it anymore, I'm glad cause I already own a copy, haha!

Best game ever, Resident Evil 4, why? Check out Gamespot's top rated list. Also, I think it's the only game I've finished more than 4 times.

Edit: In my opinion Fallout 1 was alot better than two, one of the best endings in a video game.

Sorry to be little old and going back in time many years but the best game for computer is TETRIS style, CHESS style and PACMAN style...

This is epic games and will be played in the far far future too!!!

Abandonia: Probably UFO:EU... and GTA
All-Time: Tie between Thief/System Shock

my fave game on Abandonia , Steg the Slug . Fave game of all time , Number Muncher.

My favorite game on Abandonia: Railroad Tycoon (the original - not the deluxe version).

My all time favorite computer game... thinking... thinking... :wall: :wall: :wall:

I'd have to go with Diplomacy!

On here, mm Xcom has to be tops.


Of all time. Now, I have a bunch I consider , because these I play ALL the time, over the years over, and over, and over.

Console: FF7 , with Xenogears a very very very close 2nd.
PC: mmm now this is tough, there have been so many very good games.

Fallout 1/2
Baldurs gate 1/2
xcom
masters of orion
warcraft and starcraft series


mmm, man its hard for number 1 on the PC. Well, I have to go for Fallout 2 also, Not only a great game for being such a hidden classic, but just overall a fun blast to play, and one of a kind.

As for a personal favorite, mine is Space Ace. Back when this was in the arcade, I thought this was a breakthrough in gaming history. Following Dragons Lair (god loved that), I think of Space Ace as the introduction of putting fmv's and movie sequences into video games. I was a Space Ace champ. There used to be a huge overhead screen in the arcade where I played which showed the game progress, and I remember many times playing it through only to turn around and see 20 people watching the "movie/game" being played, totally agape at watching it. Many people actually going "was that you doing all that?"

Erm, these are fairly obvious.

Best on Abandonia: Loom - Because it is a great example of what you can do to adventure games if you put effort into it.

Best of All Time: Loom - Same as above.

best on abandonia : it was (in my sick mind) moonstone. alas that it is no longer here

best of all time : its a tie for me between fallout 2 and postal 2
