Wow I figured you’d want the Xbox though. What was the football game called? It wasn’t called “blitz” was it? I know that was for the first Xbox. It was actually super fun, just not realistic like madden
And yeah I’d have a original Nintendo, I know they bring pretty good money these days for a gaming console
I’ve been really into playing the Sims 4 and Anno 1800 recently. Sometimes I play Cyberpunk or Elden Ring. I’m thinking about buying Pharaoh: A New era because I used to love that game so much when I was a kid.
Umm! Maybe I can’t recall it really. My grandma was lucky to work a TV remote then and I love her too much to see her wrangle in anguish over the many buttons on the xbox controller.
Had to google the pharaoh game. I love ancient Egypt so I was curious. Looks cool, I love games like that, looks similar to “roller coaster tycoon” lol
Haha older people are usually mesmerized by our technology… and our technology usage… seems like they have a hard time understanding us
I think I had Pharaoh for PC when I was a teen. It is city building right? If so I spent many hours on it.
Yeah, it’s a city building game set in ancient Egypt. I spent so many hours on it as well. That and I also liked Caesar 3, which is similar and set in ancient Rome. There were actually a few different city building games set in ancient civilizations. They were all awesome until you got far into the game and they started to bug out.
You still play it? Sounds fun, I love stuff like that
Pharaoh always performed well back then. Never had any issues with bugs but this new game you mentioned has me intrigued.
Well there is sort of a slightly more updated game version of Caesar 3 called CivCity Rome. I still play that on steam. I would definitely recommend and I think it’s probably pretty cheap.
Edit: Another good retro game I would recommend is Sid Meier’s Pirates and I looked it up, it’s only a few dollars on steam. I played the heck out of that game when I was a depressed teenager.
Had that for PSP. Kikazz game.
I play mostly competitive multiplayer games such as age of empires 3 league of legends counter strike global offensive and then i play animal crossing on switch lol
I like so many games that it’s just easier to say what I don’t like, which is sports and racing. It’s not that they’re bad, I just am not into sports and I kind of hate EA so it works out. I did love playing NBA Jam Tournament Edition on SNES.
Closest thing to a sports game I’ve played that was modern was Rocket League… I was very into that game for like a year.
These days I play…
Age of Empires 1 and Age of Empires 2
Civilization 3, Civilization 4, Civilization 6 (3 the most)
Factorio & Satisfactory
DOOM 2016 & Eternal
All of the Pokemon games
Zoo Tycoon
Rollercoaster Tycoon 2
Half Life Series
Dead Space Series
Age of Empires 2 Definitive was released on Xbox Jan 31, I been playing lots of skirmishes on it since then.
Nice, didn’t know they released that for consoles. I’m not very good at it since I get overwhelmed with so much stuff going on. But it’s fun to build a town and fight against bots.
I played a lot of RTS games in the past, in those games you’d have like 12 gatherers at a time, in aoe2 you can get up to around 100 villagers in a 200 food game… like a lot more of the game is focused on economy compared to Warcraft, Starcraft, or Command and Conquer.
That game always looked fun on YouTube, it always looked hard though, is it?
I play fifa and battlefield one at the moment. Will probably get some more soon
It’s harder than it looks to get the ball to go where you want it to go, and you have to juggle that with moving the camera manually.
Took me several sessions before I could reliably “kick” the ball in a given direction.
