    Flameflash:

    You're not hallucinating. FFIV (the Chronicles version) really is harder. What we Americans refer to as FFII is a bad translation of FFIV Easytype, which is in turn a bastardization of FFIV Hardtype, which is on the Chronicles disk, IIRC.

    And Yoshi's almost as good as Wario. If I don't get either, I go for either Mario or Bowser.

    An update of my own:

    I started playing Doom again. Downloaded Eternal Doom and started playing that. Damn, that thing's complex!
    oh god how did this get here I am not good with livejournal

      Thanks Vlad I was kind of thinking that all this mentioning of "hell" and "bastards" probably would be in the original American version. Parents would have flipped out!

      Yoshi was my wife's favorite prior to Wario and I'd always overtake her when I drove Wario... same thing happened when she had Wario and I Yoshi... plus, we'd look at the wrong half of the screen

      Luigi is my other pick since Bowser and DK are just too slow on the restart-up with how my wife and I play.

      Red & Green shells anyone? Once you learn how to aim, it really gets interesting.

      Civ and WoW are my crack... just one... more... turn...

          I would say civ2...

          for a console game Morrowind is sucking up most of my free time (not that I have much of that of late), but Dragon Warrior for the Nintendo really ate up a bit of my youth.

            I still find myself plying the modded CTP2 MP more then any other game. EU2 has been getting bigger but the buggy MP code has kept it in second place. Civ3 doesn't have MP so it is a very distant third.

              I spent a lot of time playing Half-Life TFC in college, since I knew of a few fellow geek programmers who played the game. Every now and then we'd take a break from studies by getting boozed up and kicking everybody's asses in the Well, Two-Fort, or Badlands map.

              I've spent quite a bit of time playing Morrowind, but I dunno if it'll surpass TFC for most hours played.

              Spent quite a bit of time playing Chrono Trigger.

              I always cheated up my levels in the FF series (I'd play them on emulator, and I'd edit my saved games to boost up my levels), so I didn't spend as much time on them. There was no need to play for hours just to level up.

                Civ II by far
                Followed by Civ I and Conquest (an old DOS Risk-Like Game)

                I also spent a good deal of time at Baseball Mogul

                    The best I can say is there are a few contenders for the title of 'Most Played':

                    Original DOOM
                    Total Annihilation
                    Civ II / TOT
                    MoO2
                    Diablo 2 (with LOD when it came in)

                    Of those, DOOM is probably it, closely followed by Diablo. If it was by Genre, TBS would be it since MoO2/CivII/TOT/SMAC/CivIII together come to a good two-three years total.

                      Once Civ III gets a multiplayer function... that's when I might get it. Not sure how many more MP games I can handle though... I'm thinking I should put my limit at 20.

                        I think I had the 1998 or 1999 version (in which the player's names were correct), (in the 2000 version they lost the players license) in it, the only thing you had to input were the team names.

                        I would buy the most recent version, except for the fact taht they have no DRAFT option. I wouldn't be so annoyed about that except Football Mogul had a draft option... why not baseball mogul????

                        All the versions are about the same... But they are all good In the 1999 or 2000 version, I think you can enter your own names for the players file, correct? (I had the demo)

                          I do the same thing!!!! My wife is always boggled as my right hand never knows what my left hand is doing (and vice versa) yet the two little guys always work together rather well. Must be something about being a gamer...

                            You guys still play lode runner? I think you should get hold of quake3 or something.

                              Yeah, but in Quake 3 you can't play two characters at once.

                              It's more fun designing your own levels with it too. (Never even installed Quake 3 on my computer... have it, but then I got it for free with my order of CtP... or was that Quake 2?)

                                I've heard of it, but I've never played it.
