Its mint. :cool:

Out of all Valve games, the Counter Strike related games (1.6 and Source) are by far the best and most addictive. Half Life games are average, don't really like it. Day of Defeat is pretty average too.

After playing on my SNES, my mates Mega Drive and Emulators on my Mac and starting to really lose enthusiasm for the new style of games, fair enough the new driving/sports games are LOADS better than the old 8 or 16 bit ones but you just don't get any good 2d platform games anymore, I just think that games are going in the wrong direction, it's all about experience and not about gameplay and I just wish games developer would make updated old style games.

Get a Nintendo mate. It may not be 2D, but the gameplay is tip-top.

Couldnt agree more about Counter Strike Militia, too damn addictive!!! made worse by the fact that I am not that good, and always near the bottom of the leaderboards  :(    :D

Anyone played Battlefield 2 yet!!!
That game looks amazing (even though there is a lack of blood, so a little lost on realism there!) but my laptop, wont be able to handle the specs for the game, so I cant play it, yet!  Hope to get a powerful desktop nearer to Christmas hopefully!

I've just bought a SNES, I had a Gamecube but got bored of it and sold it for an Xbox, hopefully getting an N64 off my sis for free too.

Just updated my PSP to firmware version 2.00, I can now surf the internet wireless on my PSP, oh it's soooo good  :cool:

Dunno mate, i've never bought it myself.
I guess if you love the old stuff then it's worth a gander... it comes with a dvd each month with old games on it.. but i guess  you can always get those games in seconds on the internet anyway.

If anyone played and liked Dawn Of War on the PC, I've just seen the trailor for the add on, Winter Strike (or something like that) and it looks pretty funking cool. You get to be the Imperial Guard this time. They're kinda wimpy, no match for Space Marines, but they do make excellent Cannon Fodder...

... Cannon Fodder. Excuse me, I'm off to dust down my Megadrive and fill a hillside with crosses. :D

If you like RTS games like Dawn of War, a new Star Wars one is not far off called Empire at War. Visit here for a cracking video clip...

Dust 2 or Havana!!!

Also have you played the courthouse map??  Very small map and just an all out fire fest....I like that one sometimes when less stealth is needed!!

Found a server the other day that gives you options on which suit you want to wear ie;

Terrorists
1. Standard suit
2. Ninja style suit
3. Russian Style suit

Counter-Terrorists
1. Standard suit
2. Desert Rat suit (best for maps such as dust/dust 2 as much easier to blend with the environment!
