Desert Island......videogames

[Black Sunday]

So you're on a desert Island for a year and you get to choose 5 videogames to take with you.....which ones would you take?

I bet no one thought to ask this question about videogames before!

[Ginevra]

Well, other than the FF series, I CAN say that I WOULD NOT take the game that I recently aquired and tried to install and the install kept failing.

[Jarodaka]

Do we have Internet access? 'Cause if we do, Halo 2 would be sweet, if not Internet, Halo 2 would be not so good.

[The_Dark]

1. Return to Castle Wolfenstien

2. Rome: Total War

3. Far Cry

4. Star Trek Bridge Commander

5. porn.. does porn count as a game?

[JaneDead]

*sigh*

Kids these days!

None of your games will work because there is no electricity on a desert island. Haven't you seen Gilligan's island?

(Unless you are stranded wih the Professor and he can build you one of those neato bicycle electricity makers).

Oh no. Now I've got that song stuck in my head. "Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, A tale of a fateful trip ... laalaalaa .. uncharted desert isle .."

[Shade Everdark]

This is imagination! I cannot be bothered with concepts like physics, engineering, and the like! Bring on the improbable!

That said, the five games I'd take to a desert island with me....

1. Chrono Trigger

2. Starcraft

3. Civilizaton 3

4. Final Fantasy IV (II in the States)

5. GTA: San Andreas

You doubt the MacGuyveresque injinuity of the hardcore video gamer... and seem to have a stereotype assigned to dessert islands. For my year on a desert island I'm thinking of one of the many resorts on the island of Fiji

[Troy Spiral (13)]

Ruling out games such as Serious Sam, Phreddy Pharkis, Kings Quest, Baulders Gate, Grim Fandagngo, Wizardry series , Ultima series, Chrono Trigger, Super Mario 64, The zelda series, FF and others due to the fact that im "locked on a desert island" and the RPG style nature of these doesnt lend itself to years of replay... (and asuming no net access so that means no multiplayer net games (Halo) or MMORPGS/MUDS awmagad!!)

Soul Calibur

Starcraft

Sid's Gettysburg

Civ 2

Combat Mission

totally based on current mood, and the fact that i'd be expected to play these things over and over and over again.
