lol...Brian, what about Atomic Bomberman?


I remember playing that on Super Nintendo years ago, and I was having a blast playing it by myself with a few other computer players. Never got a chance to play it with another person though.


Warcraft/Starcraft/C&C would be a great idea too.

No, AppleTalk has been dead since about the time the iMac was released, around 1997... It's hard to even buy parts for it anymore. Macs now use TCP/IP-based protocols, Ethernet, I suppose maybe ATM...that sort of thing.

I don't like it either, but it did pop into my head and that's the only reason I said it.

i downlo...... err.... i got the sims when it FIRST came out.... (wasnt that like two and a half yeas ago or sumthin like that?)


and i didnt really care for it...... like all the other sim games, its fun for a while, but it gets a little boring after a little while.




Now what DOES interest me is the Sims Online....... its finally bringing the online world and the real world closer together :)




but then again, i dont think id actually PAY for something like that yet when i could always just go walk around the mall or sumthin, lol.

Sims online looks like its a game where you can interact your sim with those of other players. From the commercials I've seen, it looks mostly like a way for them to "date."

I've never played it and don't care to either.

It's just another way for 12 year old little kids to make new friends if they don't have AOL. It's basically a chat room with The Sims built in front as the GUI.

Another game which is going to compete with The Sims Online is called There.

The latter has already been discussed though, here:

sorry, I have a slight bias torwas the sims because a former friend all she did was talk about how great the sims was and all the stuff you could do. SHe got really piss off at me when I told here I had fun burning down the house and finding new ways to kill the sims. It is kind of fun

Commenting on some of the earlier posts, I must say that playing Ultimate Doom and Doom II over my little appletalk mac network at home and occasionally over phone lines was a ton of fun back in the late 90's.

The only problem was that even back then my macs were slow as bleep so I had to turn the resolution on the graphics down to low. That made for some major headaches and vertigo after playing for a few hours straight.
