    How funny reading through the last couple of pages in this thread! I thought I was the only one lost in the past playing nostalgic games, I just can't seem to get interested in most late games.... probably a good thing, it keeps me working hard!

    I'm a massive Blizzard fan here, since Warcraft 3, which remains the greatest game of all time (I've yet to play the earlier two @Perthguy, have you been through all three?). These days the outlet is Overwatch, it's a great way to chill out for twenty minutes and not lose a whole day!

    On another note, have any FPS fans played Battlegrounds?

    I finished 1 and started 2 but it didn't grab me. I am now playing Tomb Raider 1 and just finished Ultima 1. I will get back to WC2 and WC3 down the track. I have a list of about 300 games I want to play. I am expecting it will take a while.

    Factorio 0.15 was just released with a whole heap of new features and changes to the gameplay, so after months of productivity, I'm back building mega-factories :eek:

    Good Tycoon/management games are my Achilles...

    A kickstarter for a WW2 game my fellow computer nerds might want to join. Alpha starts in early 2018 some time I think ? 9 minutes video on link below to check it out.

    I love playing multiplayer "couch" games with the kids - looking forward to this new one coming next year for Steam and XBox:

    Brief Battles - May your butt reign supreme

    This is an indie game developer based in Adelaide.



    They've launched a kickstarter to help fund development: Brief Battles

    Disclaimer: one of the developers is the partner of my cousin's daughter!

    I dug out my Command and Conquer 3 Discs last week and am running through the NOD campaign. It's not that easy, even on "normal" difficulty. It's fun though.

    OMG hear I was thinking I was the only gamer on PC.
    I have PS4 and PC.

    PS4 I solely play FPS games (COD/Battlefield etc. and sports (FIFA/NBA)
    PC I solely play Strategy games (StarCraft takes up most of my time lately)... but I've played all the collections... Dune, C&C, Prince of Persia, Kingdoms, Total War, War Craft etc. etc.

    If anyone wants to get smashed in FIFA or NBA on PS4 or StarCraft on PC let me know :p:p:p

    I have played Dune, Dune II, Dune 2000 and Dune 3, all of Command and Conquer (except 4) and Prince of Persia... but never StarCraft! I know, I have it but I am scared to load it before Christmas because it will steal all my limited time :p

    Only game on PC atm (considering PS4pro/OneX)
    • Assetto Corsa so I can practice driving on Eastern Creek and Wakefield before a trackday (and also experiment with car setup changes)
    • INSIDE - interesting puzzle platformer with nice ambience

    I assume they are modded tracks? Any good?

    Yep, took a few goes to find sufficiently accurate ones but now that I have, they've been indispensable for trying new lines and figuring out what's absolutely not possible (without incurring massive repair bills :D)

    Chylld,

    I live in Canberra and have done the Formula Ford Experience. Would love to grab the Wakefield mod for Assetto Corsa. Do you have a link ?
