Other Games?
SimsHost:
Civilization 2. Definitely Civ 2! I almost always have a Civ 2 game up and running on my Mac, just as I almost always have The Sims 2 running on my big Windows box.
So, just how addicted to Civ 2 am I? Look at this:

That's another of my silly stories at the Hullabaloo, posted just last Saturday. It hasn't even been announced in the Chronicle yet. (Because I am three days late getting out this week's Chronicle. Oops. Blame it on Real Life. Or Rio. Whichever comes first.)
I have Civ 3 on my Windows laptop, but the only time I played it was when I was stuck in a hotel on a business trip to Canada and seriously needed a Civ fix. Civ 3 just doesn't do it for me.
The "reflex" games where you have to train yourself to push buttons in the right sequence don't appeal to me at all, so I leave all the fighting games on my son's shelf.
Hmmm... I don't want to use JM's board as SimsHost bait, so if you like that outfit, here's an exclusive secret just for folks who visit More Awesome Than You: psaf_civ_ii_shirt_shorts.zip. 116 K download.
(The link above bypasses the whole SimsHost thing. SimsHost subscribers can also download Inga's outfit from that thread at the Hullabaloo, but it'll sock your SimsHost account for 1.1 cents if you do. In that case, we humbly thank you for your support.)

Yes, well, you see, the rules on advertising paystuff here is that it'll cost you $9.95/month. :) We're the only ones who get to post paystuff here! It's my paysite! Not yours! Nyah!
You can advertise free stuff all you want, though. )

There's a lot to be said for crass commercialism! ;D
Although to be honest, I just wanted to show off that cute li'l Civ 2 oufit. I thought it a fascinating coincidence that I made that just a week ago, and here folks are talking about Civ 2. I thought I was the only Civ 2 holdout left in the world! Since I had already posted that outfit in the regular SimsHost space, the only solution I could think of was to make a special free version for fellow Pescadophiles. :)
I'd probably be better at the commercial game if I didn't totally suck at marketing. (30something years of working for government aerospace contractors does not give one much marketing experience. Is it any wonder that SimsHost continues to lose money after all these years? It makes me wonder how the more serious marketeers are doing.) Actually, paying $10.00 a month for the privilege of planting subscriber bait might not be a bad deal. Since we only charge $2 a month for subscriptions, if five people a month were inspired to join the party because of it, that would be a break-even (well, make it 6 or 7 to account for taxes and stuff), and the downloads take care of themselves.

I'm with Jaayar- other games?? I have no clue what that could be... oh unless you count solitaire or Snnod- games you can play in less then three hours, as you need for the Sims.

Other games...well there is only Simcity 4, Zoo Tycoon, Hotel and Warcraft sitting on my shelf. Guess I like God games. My fav is Simcity 4, the others I got from Ebay to see what they were like.
Used to be a big Doom head but that was earlier in my gaming years.
I will play Backgammon online - Yahoo games. Yep, pretty nerdy.
