Waaaaayyyyyy off topic. (other video games)

[micaelcorleone]

You're right, but unfortunately there are many irresponsible parents who buy their kids every game and don't think about it.
And that's why they censor everything.
You in the US are lucky. Just take the weapon thing for example: I'm not for everyone having the right to own every kind of fire arm, but in Germany it's really draconic.
I hate it how our freedom is cut. But that' another thing.

I'm also a big fan of Indie games. I'm getting a small collection now. Darkest of Days (shooter) Machinarium (really fun 2D puzzle game) this morning I picked up VVVVVV. This one will take you back to the days of the Commodore 64! Fun flash based game.

I know y'all don't want to get this thread locked, so let's not start getting into any political stuff.
I was a bit hesitant about even letting this topic continue after the first post, since it has nothing to do with RW. Don't confirm my doubts.

maybe move it into the jungle, but I think locking would be wrong. Some time off from our trains is good needed when mighty SBHH comes around again

micael with the nice contacts you made here I guess someone would be so kind to gift you the game from his american account so you get the "full" version. Maybe a gift back of a nice RW addon could help

Oh Indie games: get Minecraft! You can have trains in it too! Ok, most people use it to build rollercoasters but that is a lot of fun too. This one is pretty awesome: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebhFHYcHGvY

Along with Atari and Amiga it's a huge influence in Indie development , the concepts from the early platforms and side scrollers , with some new twist ideas , translate well for casual gaming for today > simple , adictive and fun .... check out the Unity site for a way cool ( Android for cheap ) dev platform . Maybe you download the free version and see how it's done , maybe you got hidden talent .

Casual gaming is great .

I don't have a problem with talking about games that folks enjoy. I just don't want it to turn into something else.

I have a real old side scroller that actually came on an audio driver CD called "Dark Star" it's just a fun, fast paced Arcade type shooter. Plus I have a bunch of old Atari pub-style shooters like Galaga and Galaxians. How many quarters on a Saturday night did I pour into those arcade machines. Lost of fun back in the day, and now too on the PC.

I decided to buy those 2 "Penny Arcade" games last week, $7.80USD for both games. "point and click" 2D stuff but it still takes the edge off and gives a laugh.
