Gaming
I’ve always enjoyed gaming. From my first NES that I had to work to pay for half of ($100 is a lot of work when you’re 10!) to modern board games. I used to play to “accomplish things” (I didn’t realize that at the time), but now it’s mostly to spend time with friends. Here’s a nice list of all my favs:
Board
- Puerto Rico
- Carcassonne
- Illuminati
- Settlers of Catan
Computer
- Unreal Tournament (2004 was the best IMO)
- StarCraft
- The Neverhood
- Warcraft III (not the game itself, the platform and oh-so-many custom maps)
- World of Warcraft
- Sam and Max Hit the Road
- Day of the Tentacle
- Full Throttle
- Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis
- Portal
- Team Fortress 2
- Worms (Armageddon was the best)
Console
NES
- Super Mario Bros. 3
- Adventures of Lolo - classic puzzle game
- Micro Machines - top-down driving game
PS2
- Final Fantasy X
Other
- Capture the Flag (college rules)
- Scavenger Hunts
- Egyptian Rat Screw
