Some good games and some crap games. Violence is at the bottom of my list for must have features in a quality title. It just happens to be very fun to shoot fantasy people in their fantasy heads with well done, realistic play control.

I always enjoy taking all the drugs I can get my hands on, pimping out my wife, and shooting the "President of the United States of America" in the eyes with a Gauss Rifle in my very favorite game, "Fallout 2" also. But it's sales weren't high enough for politicians and web sites to capitalize on it I guess.

Life is just a simulation.

I had Carmegeddon when I was really young, and before they changed it. God I loved that game.

I still have all the original Doom and Doom 2 wads, and play them almost daily. Damn I love those games. And my computer sucks.

Gee, go figure, GTA at the top. Who'da thunk it? I still say it rocks, I'm just glad I got San Andreas before the AO crap came to be.

They forgot to put up that stupid game in which the only goal is to reinact JFK's assassination.

Fortunately, I have two hard drives installed, The main one contains Windows XP for all the new games.....
...and also...
A second hard drive which contains good-old Windows '98SE for all the zillions of old games, Quake, Doom, Gloom, Duke Nukem3D, etc, etc, that I own, and were designed to only run in DOS, Win '95, and Win '98.... Grin

I just select the boot-up hard drive in Bios depending on I want to play...new stuff...or old stuff... 8)...!

some real classics on that list
- 'Kingpin' which was already infamous when it first came out
- Our college favourite time-spending: 'Soldier of fortune'
- Carmageddon... everyone knows about it
- Postal... rated 16+ here in holland (it's the maximum, but i havent seen anyone being asked for an ID when they buy games)

And can someone explain me the difference between 'Mature' and 'Adult only' rating? I really don't get it

Russian planes: IL-76 (all standard length ones), Tu-154 and Il-62, Tu-134 and An-24RV&&&&AI flightplans and repaints can be found here

mature is suggested 18 and up (i think) and adult only is as it says (it is generally a pornographic game)
