Re: Any gamers here?
Anyone recall those those two stand alone game search programs ?
I used the rather pitiful in game search facility

Any gamers here?
Sooooo after a lot of faffing around I finally managed to install my old COD2 game onto our PC
Played about 20 minutes in a small online DeathMatch game
There were only 8 HUMAN players but it was more than enough when I was constantly fine tuning all the settings

I played Elder Scrolls Oblivion way too much on PS3, on my walk to work i used to pass a "community garden" where they were growing native flora, i'd "see" plants from the game among them and be tempted to stop and pick some......
I got seriously addicted to playing online multiplayer Call of Duty2
I even joined a clan and played for hours every night - problem was it was an American clan who played from about 1am or 2am onwards !!
Anyways being the clan sniper I spent hours looking over the vast landscapes of the game , quite often fields stretching for miles ..
One time after a long session I went downstairs for some cornflakes and I recall looking at the big painting ( print ) on the opposite wall -it was a massive forest landscape picture and I could SEE tiny little guys running in and out of the trees !!
Scary !!!

I’ve got an even crazier story as well !!

Re: Any gamers here?
Aye, back when games came with manuals and other stuff to really set the tone without charging an arm and a leg for "collector's editions".
That's why, despite having bought it on digital at launch, I recently bought the No Man's Sky Limited Edition set (for cheap) because it had a novel and artwork books etc which reminded me of the old Elite package.

In the eighties, I had an Acorn Electron. I played a hell of a lot of Elite on it.

I'm also fond of Alien Isolation, because it's basically 3D Monster Maze (ZX81, 1981). Really, it is.
