Me: Favorite game right now is Steel Beasts. Wait a minute, did I say "game?" I meant TANK SIM!
It's a tank simulator wherein you get to command several platoons of M1A1s, M2/M3 Bradleys, M113s, FIST-V, Humvees, Leo2A4s, etc. etc. etc. You can actually drive an M1A1 and a Leo2A4, as well as be the TC and the Gunner. It's the most realistic tank sim in terms of "game play" and has a powerful scenario editor as well (which I'm having a hard time mastering hehehehe). Great tank sim, a must have if you're an armor fanatic. BTW, I don't work for the company that makes Steel Beasts.
Just a big BIG ADDICT of the game - doh! - TANK SIM!
It's a PC tank sim, and doesn't require much computer resources. Available at Datablitz for less than P1k. The makers will be releasing Steel Beasts 2 in Autumn or Winter of this year, however it is recommended to get SB1 because the learning curve can be a bit high. SB2 will have more "commandable" vehicles, although they are still keeping shut on what additional vehicles these are. Rumor has it you can drive a Humvee, Leo1A5, T-72, M1A2SEP, Leo2A5, Challenger 1 or Challenger 2. SimCity 4 - If you looooooooove playing God and Mayor, this is the game for you. Outstanding graphics! Very difficult to master, though - My biggest population is a minuscule 15,000+ Sims, tiny compared the the hundreds of thousands in the old SimCity 2000 game. Very realistic and superb game, a joy to play with.
Ghost Recon - I only got the first installment. Since the first installment, UbiSoft has released 2 more packs - Desert Siege and Island Thunder. Not as tough as Rogue Spear, but it is FUN!
Splinter Cell - Downloaded from MyGlobe WAP site for P50.00, it's a nice little game from UbiSoft. A scaled down version of the Xbox (?) and/or PC game of the same title.
Prince of Persia - Also from MyGlobe and at P50.00, fun game - and sexy too hehehehe
Juysteck - Raptor 3D USB. I got mine at Challenger, Filinvest Mall, for less than P1k (they were selling it like pancakes during the 2002 Christmas season). The cheapest digital USB joystick I found, it is fun to use and has several buttons, including a throttle button. I've been using it for Steel Beasts - alas, Ghost Recon seems to not support joysticks at all, only keyboards. Some analog, serial port joysticks costs more than the Raptor 3D. Compatible with USB 1 or USB 1.1
