I've heard the game is awesome, but it still isn't enough to make me buy an Xbox. I'm plenty content with the FF and CT/CC games for an RPG fix.

<span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'> <span style='color:blue'>While it may not be a RPG, on my comp I've been having a blast playing "Evil Genius". It's a sorta parody of the 1960's Super Spy Genre. With a bit of a twist. You're the villain. About the closest thing I can really compare it to would be "Dungeon Keeper". Unfortunately it has a number of bugs in it and they are working on a patch for it to address a number of problems. Till the patch is released, I've still been having a lot of fun building my base, interrogating prisioners, committing acts of infamy. (Yesterday I burned a huge section of national forest in Australia. Tonight I plan on wiping out Nashville and captureing a number of criminal overloards to prove to them that I am number 1!.) </span> </span><br><br><br> <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... iggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... iggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... iggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Someone mentioned Fallout! Time to hijak the topic for a little bit.....<br><br>Years ago, I created my own Fallout site, then called Scotty the Great's Fallout Community (yes, my handle was Scotty the Great back then). I stuck with the site even though it didn't really draw any attention during the first few years. Anyways, the site evolved from being a fan site to a democratically-run community-style place, and early this year it was renamed to The Radiated Society. I loved the place and all the people that joined up to make the site work and succeed, but at last I wanted to move on. So, on the last day of September, I resigned my position and left. Eh, I could go on and on about this, but I won't at this time. If anyone wants to hear more of my ramblings on this, just ask me on AIM.

Can't say that I ever played Earthbound. I blame the Nintendo Power ads; there's no way I'm buying a game who's advertisement includes a "scratch and stink" sticker. <!--emo&<_<--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... ns/dry.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='dry.gif' /><!--endemo--> <br><br>Oh. and Myst rocked, especially when it first came out. Have you played Riven and Exile Ozymandias? And what's the title of the fourth one coming out?
Still mostly here.
