6 CommentsI know me and my friends have an issue with games and that is if we applied ourselves in other areas of life like we do the games we play we would be hugely successful. The problem is games offer enjoyment and diving into them and getting loss isn't something that I ever regret, but it is something I look forward to. The game that did that for me was World of Warcraft.
Before that it was Civilization. Before that Halo. At any time in my life there always seems to be a game that I just can't put down because I am looking at new ways to improve or discovering new things. I love games that seem to have an endless depth to them that allows me to uncover the goods every hour I play.
Some of the more throwback games that I always had trouble putting down were King's Quest III (points if you even remember that game), Super Mario Bros 3 and Sonic 2.
We all have them, what's your's?

I don't usually get caught up in games too often, but right now it's Trism for the iPhone. Visit the website here. It's super-addicting and I can't seem to put it down. This is definitely a battery-drainer.

Oh god, fix up their website...oh I have to scroll down in the little box to see the video...bah the video didn't show real gameplay. Is it like those games where you remove one color combo and another set fills in and you just keep going till the screen is gone?

Right now, it's World of Warcraft. I was talking to a friend of mine about Civilization Revolution - that is one I'll probably check out since I've completed all of the other Civ games. Right now, I can't see beyond WoW. I'm starting to get into the theorycraft of the game. I have a feeling Starcraft and Diablo III will be added to the list along with Spore (I have high hopes for that game).

You have to be careful with theorycrafting in WoW because it only takes effect if you twink or at endgame. Plus you need to be in the endgame instances to really appreciate it, otherwise you are just pretending you won the lottery and what you would do with the money.
I'm really looking forward to Diablo and SC2. Diablo a bit more since I missed the D2 train and it has a lot of similarities to WoW.

Let me add that while I'm on the go, Capone Casino 2 on my phone gets all my play time. Damn you Trixie and Granny!

Yes, I realize. It's the way my mind works. I just like to "know" if that makes any sense.
Ditto on SC2...it's cool, I'm looking forward to it but Diablo 3 is the one (of the two) I'm looking forward to most.
