What games are installed on your computer right now?

[Keith]

It's getting a little dull around here, so here's something to spark a little activity.

What game(s) do you currently have installed on your computer right now?

(Only list the game(s) you currently have installed.)

[Keith]

With my personal PC still acting up due to a bum power supply, I haven't been doing as much gaming lately. I still have all my usuals installed even thought I haven't played most of them in six months since my problem started.

The games I currently have installed on my computer are:

Caesar III
Pharaoh/Cleopatra
Zeus/Poseidon
Emperor Rise of the Middle Kingdom
Children of the Nile/Alexandria
Caesar IV
Star Fleet Command II (ship-to-ship space battles)
World in Conflict (I manage to play this in the hour or so each day my system manages to work. WWIII genre, the Soviets invade the U.S. and Nato countries in 1989.)

Since it's not "installed", I did not include Children of the Nile Online.

[Herodotus]

OK, I'll play...
Mine is not so much different

Caesar 4
Caesar 3
Pharaoh/Cleo
Emperor ROTMK
COTN
Civ City:Rome

None of the others match up to these so haven't installed them.
I don't have Zeus, but I might get it one day soon.

Gotta go: Crucial Euro football qualifier for England starts in a few minutes

Dat's the real football BTW

[Keith]

Herodotus, looks like you and I are the only ones with games installed.

[tobing]

My answer would depend on which computer I look, I have more than one in regular use.

So the games I have installed AND play:

Minecraft
Stronghold Crusader
Thief 1+2
Pharaoh
Emperor RotMK
Sacred
Icewind Dale
RollerCoaster Tycoon 2
Serious Sam First Encounter
Tropico Reloaded
Locomotion

Installed but waiting to be played:

Baldur's Gate 1+2
Icewind Dale 2
Two Worlds
Freedom Force vs Third Reich
Caesar III
Caesar IV
CotN
Hinterland
Simcity Societies
The Sims
The Sims 3 (played by my daughters, actually)
Perimeter
Drakensang
Spellforce
Heroes Chronicles
Alpha Centauri

and I'm sure some are missing from that list, there are quite a few more installed but not yet played on the PC and the other laptop.

[CatMajik]

Pharoah/Cleo
SCS Destination
CoTN/Alexandria

[Amrine]

Zeus
CotN
Diablo II (it's boring but a filler for timesinks)
Lord of the Rings Online
EQ ( I forgot to uninstall after the free trial )
WoW even though I will never play that one again
LoM
LoM2!!! hehe Nostalgia
Fable

Just as a quick aside, Zeus is one I recently reinstalled, and darn, it's a tough game! I am reloving it all over again.

[Keith]

If you need to update your Zeus, you can get any of the patches at the Zeus Gamers Heaven website, or if you really can't find it I have a copy of the patches. If you hover the cursor over the actual ZEUS.EXE file it will show you what version you have installed; that, or right click on the exe file then goto properties, and then the Version tab.

[Nighteyes]

Hmm, I think that maybe I'm a bit of an over the top gamer, heres a quick list of some of the games I've got installed and have played recently/still like:

AoE 3
AC 1+2
BF2
Betrayal at Krondor
Black and white 2
Caeser 3+4
call of juarez
call to power 2
cotn
civ 3 + 4
the commandos pack
company of heroes
darkstar one
Disciples 3+4

EE1
Far cry
Free Col
might and magic 1-9
Hinterland
Mount and Blade 1+WB+WFaS
Oasis
Patrician 3+4

This is just a quick look at my game drive, a few selections. Definitely think I play to many games.

EDIT: Just checked, my game drive is sitting at ...[wait for windows to finish checking the size of the folder]....[10min later].... 245GB of games.

[Amrine]

yep, 1.0.0.0 I'll run by and patch it up. I seriously don't mind hardcore though. It's nuts the way games are dumbed down so much now. Still, I was struggling pretty hard with armies coming in and me with no palace.

[Kosminhotep]

CotN Enhanced Edition + Alexandria
Panzer General, Allied General, Fantasy General, People's General
SpaceChem
StarControl: The Ur-Quan Masters
Minecraft
Alien Swarm (it's free )
Alien Shooter, Zombie Shooter
Defense Grid
Civ 4 & Colonization
Total War: Rome, Empire
Freespace 1 & 2
Gratuitous Space Battles
Overlord

These are games in progress, that I play right now - when I have the time.

[CatMajik]

Nighteyes, OMG..............I can't believe you still have M&M and Krondor. I played the those games till I went nuts especially M&M IV & V. Do you have then on DVD or are they still on floppy? I bought M&M (World of Xeen) on CD, but they had too many of the voice overs screwed up, that I sent it back. That was a bummer.

[Nighteyes]

Hey CatMajik,
I bought M&M on GOG.com, nice and cheap and they have set up dosbox start-up shortcuts.
But I have Krondor on CD (it's available on GOG to), still an really good game I play it occasionally, family got it years ago ,currently travelling throughout as much of the game world as I can in Ch 1. bit of fun.

Thank you, I will check out GOG.com.

On my new laptop:

CotN and Alexandria
Hinterland
SimCity Societies: Destinations
Majesty 2
Tropico 3

Installing Medieval II: Total War, which my stone age computer couldn't handle.

[PantherX]

Diablo II (it's boring but a filler for timesinks)

Have you tried Torchlight? It's developed by the guys that made the original Diablo and is really what Diablo II should have been.

My quick look at the games I have installed...
Roller Coaster Tycoon 3, Avatar, COtN, SCS, Caesar IV, Torchlight, Duke Nukem Forever, Starcraft 2, Diablo 2, Driver, Street Fighter IV, The Sims 3, Portal2, About 10 more Steam Games, add to that about 15 various demos that I play once in a while. I'm sure I am still missing a few of the ones I don't play often as these are my quick links.
I have about 15 kids games installed for when my family comes by and brings their kids.
I still have SWG, WOW & Forgotten Worlds installed although I do not plan on paying for them again, Star Trek Online, Beta Testing for SWTOR.
DosBox Games: Jones in the fast lane, Phantasamagora 1&2, Duke Nukem 1&2&3D, Jill of the Jungle, Legend of Zelda, 5 or 6 other Apogee games and Monopoly.
I have no idea the overall size being used since I use Windows 7 and it seems to spread everything all over the place no matter what you say or where you install items.

[tobing]

Torchlight being what Diablo II should have been? You're kidding...

Torchlight is a nice game, I've played three times (three character classes), but that's it. Diablo II is completely different and just a great game.

Btw, both are installed on my smaller laptop.

And add Sacred 2, which we are currently playing here. Nice in coop, but even better in the solo campaign.

In May of this year a power supply meltdown forced a new computer upon me. Not that this was a bad thing, I just tend to get comfy and as long as everything I use works, I don't see the need for the newest, latest, or greatest. The pain of the rebuild is now subsiding, and I'm rather enjoying a lean and mean, fresh build. The games that were deemed worthy to be introduced to the new environment:

actively playing:

• Caesar IV (i don't like the 3D, but it's a new game (to me))
• AOE-II (almost done, AOE-III waiting in the wings)
• Nile Online (my homepage, so that counts for something)
• Spider Solitaire (yes, it comes with the OS, but I uninstall everything else so I count keeping this as an installed game. great time-waster)

not played in years but needs to be handy:

• Emperor
• Pharaoh/Cleopatra
• Sim City 4

Bringing down the servers on this MMO which pre-cu was the BEST MMO I ever played, and lucky you on the Beta for SWTOR

I agree it was awesome, it's really too bad that the devs listened to the quitters complaining that they couldn't make Jedi without 6 months hard work. They actually killed the game by making the change so anyone could be a Jedi.
