Thief II! Play it

Oh, I will. But like I said, I'm still working through Thief Gold.

actually, I should admit I have some games I have no played. but that is because they came bundled with other stuff I bought.

I got these games that were bundled with my sound card. I still haven't played them. They are more action/FPS style games, I'm not really interested in.

And then the games that came bundled with the laptop collection. I only bought it to get SMAX (which I have played alot of course). I did try playing Sim City 3000, but I need to find the rules for that- I have no idea what I'm doing. Maybe I'll get around to installing Tiger Woods golf. Golf games can be kind of fun (for a little while at least)

I've never bought games unless I plan to play it... well, unless you count the games found in Corn Flakes. If that's the case then I do have several games I've never played, but I don't remember the names of those so who cares

I have bought a few games that I only played very little though, like the game American Dream... I only played it for a few hours... unless you like to spend your time clicking on the same button constantly then skip this game (it's pretty old, so I guess you wont find it anywhere anyway)

Find the rules?

It's just a "simple" city builder game. There's not really many rules to learn that you wont find out within the first few hours of playing the game anywa

it's not that simple. I have never played a city builder game. I have no idea what I'm doing, or how to do it.

Just think of it as a real city:
You need some residents, the residents needs places to work and shop, all buildings needs electricity and water, and of course there needs to be roads to drive on... When you've got that right you can slowly start with fire-protection, police, schools, etc
Shouldn't be too hard to do... the menu is IIRC easy to navigate

I didn't find the interface to be that easy.

Thanks for the offer! I'll check around here at home first and come back to you if I find nothing. What's the publisher's name?

Black Diamond by the looks of things. I'm pretty sure that's the same as the one I have. The cover looks similar anyway.
Not sure if I can still find it in the local EB but I could easily have a copy included the next time I order from the place I linked to?



[Edit: Actually, given that something I already have on order from the same place has just been bumped back a couple of weeks, I might even be able to get them to add it to that one?]

One of the first Star Wars pc games like maybe 2 years ago..

never got into it but played like 15 minutes and it is now packed away

I think Urban Ranger has previously stated about purchasing bargain bin games yes I am also akin to this as it sometimes yields a game for fun

I figure what the heck maybe Ill be bed ridden one day limited finances and at least Ill have something to occupy my time with

I only buy games I want to play ASAP. I buy quality games that I know I'll like, and that turns out to be right in most occations. The few exceptions is games I play little(as M:TW), but none I never play.

...because it's on DVD-ROM, not CD-ROM. :doh!:
