Right now I like Medieval II Total War.

I hate 95% of the games that come out each year and only focus on the few ones that make the grade.

Some good franchises are the Total War and the Civilisation series. I also liked Imperial Glory...

Well, right now I've been playing Rainbow Six: Las Vegas, and I must admit it is quite excellent.

I like the Total War series, the Guitar Hero series, and The Legend of Zelda series. Those are the ones I like most.

I can't think of any I don't like right now.

My favorite more or less recent games are Knights of the Old Republic I & II.

I can't wait for Star Trek Online to come out. I recently quit FFXI which had been absorbing way too much of my life for way too long now, but Star Trek Online will be a totally different story. I will be happy about being addicted to Star Trek Online.

If Elite had the controlling system like X-Wing, I would still be playing it. But, becouse of the STUPID, roll 'till you drop system I never really got far.

My list of goodies

X-Wing
Tie-Fighter
Pro Evolution Soccer series
Future Cop (winner in the Turn-out-brain-and start-shooting cathegory)
CSI Series
Monkey Islands (though the ending of the second one left me feeling raped by a computer game :evil: )
Max Payne 2 (mostly for the story and atmosphere though gameplay is great, too)
Madden 2000 (didn't play any of the newer ones :( )
Red Baron
Master of Orion 2
Colonization
Broken Sword
GTA Series (with emphasis on Vice City)
KOTOR I and II
StarCraft (I never became good enough to play against people, but I respect it non the less)
Heroes of M&M (every part has a good side to it)
Baldur's Gate series

Badies

Gangsters
New FIFAs (I can't belive that FIFA is a cathegory in Championships and PES isn't. That is outright disrespective towards the players :x )

My favorite games of ALL TIME. I still play HeroesIV all the time.

It has a certain charm that can't be beat.

Have you played Heroes II: The Price of Loyalty? In that add-on you can recruit Ghosts wich makes Necromancer a contender (unlike the original Heroes II where Warlock pretty much ruled the big maps with the Dragon&Armaggedon combo).

P.S. I only finished the Lovers campaign in Heroes IV. Can an Order magician when he's completly buffed up in Order cathegories, defeat armies by himself? The Green magician can, so I was wandering if it's possible to play One-man-army with other spellcasters as well.

HeroesII was the first I ever played. Heroes IV is all about the heroes themselves. I usually conquer maps with just two heroes, keeping ALL of my armies in my towns. Only a Life magician is still too weak to focus entirely on magic and expect to defeat armies.
