I like RTS strategy games: TA, Warzone 2100, Dark Reign 2, Stronghold, Konan.
I like turn-based strategy also: Civ III, Risk II.
I like turn-based SF strategy games the best: Battle Isle Androsia War.
I like racing games that are closer to arcade than simulation: NFS III,
NFSPorsche 2000, Nascar 2002 (a little to simulation).
I like beer & pretzel games: Moonbase Commander, Gene Rally (Cute top down freeware racing game).
I don't like Fantasy games like Age of Wonders, Warlords.
Currently my favorite games in order are:
1. Massive Assault / Titans of Steel Warring Suns (Tie)
2. Hostile Waters (Very unique 1st person strategy shooter).
But I just found an unknown European beer & pretzel racing game that is a
hoot. It is kickass! It was released November 28. It is like a car racing
version of Rollycoaster Tycoon. I downloaded the demo, played about 30
minutes and now I'm going to Akihabara in Tokyo to see if I can find the
full version. If I can't find it I will order it online. Check it out at
