Well seeing as how my last two attempts at a MMORPG poll went, I'm changing it.

Instead of a poll I'm just going to ask you outright:

What kind of online games like Runescape or World of Warcraft do you play?

I play Skyrates and a few tower defense games. I like Onslaught and Desktop TD. I'm trying not to get addicted to anything else.

Tower defense games are alright in my opinion. I've actually had a lot of fun with them before. I just don't like the repetitiveness. It's the same thing over and over, wave after wave. You know what I mean?

I dislike how badly designed most TD games are. They tend to have tons of stuff and 90% of it is useless.

I'm an addict. What can I say in defense?


heh, heh.

I am really enjoying playing Battlefield 2142. It's one of my favorite games because of all the intense strategy and teamwork incorporated into what appeared to be a simple shoot-em-up.

Whoops wrong button. Sorry.

I like Runescape a little right now, just a little.
I used to play a space rpg (could've been mmo) of some sort. I can't remember the name... unsure.gif The sequel is a bit popular right now. I'm sure someone can remind me.
My bro played another mmo called Tribes in 1998, or around that time. He said he's cried over how much he misses it sometimes. sad.gif laugh.gif

On onslaught, is there any fun way to do well? There's lots of combo's but it seems like the only real way to deal nice damage is by using laser chain based combos.

Mastering the Combonly helps a lot. I like to build a few nuke launchers and stack BigDamageUps. Black holes don't give you cash but they are unstoppable as far as I've seen.

I'm not one for repetitively playing flash games and I'm currently off the MMO-hook. But some flash-games I've enjoyed are:

The Last Stand 2 - This is basically a game where you fight zombies and try to make your way to safety.
http://armorgames.com/play/1443/the-last-stand-2

Armed With Wings - An action type of platformer game. I like its style.
http://armorgames.com/play/1408/armed-with-wings

Necronomicon - This is a really well-made Magic-like card game with a Cthulhu flavour. Recommended.
http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/453509
-edit---Alas, it seems the Newgrounds crowd has voted it off the site. Well, there's no accounting for taste, or they say.

Well if we're just going to start listing off online games...

This is a pretty addictive sim type game.

Thing-Thing 3 is better than it's sequel in my opionion.

Can't beat a classic. "We all grow great by dreams... and all great men are dreamers. RAISE DA ROOF!"

http://homepage.mac.com/pockyrevolution/nanaca_crash.html
Hm, haven't played this game in a long time.

http://shingakunet.com/special/16608701/0285/index.html
This is a pretty fun little grow game. I'd also recomend a few of the other games on that website.

Pandemic 2 has been helping me kill some time lately. Winning is a little luck and trick related so i'm mainly going for all the traits now.

That was the point. Just make sure they're ones you play.

Last stand 2.
I like the fact that you can give your weapons to the other survivors and the traps and stuff, but you don't have enough time to travel all over and get all the weapons and stuff. I like some of the new weapons, but I don't like how you can't give some of them to the other survivors, like the compound bow. Still, it's funny to see all the zombies with arrows sticking out of them.

I liked the first better for several reasons and vice-versa.

Have you noticed that the standard pistols that survivors use if you don't give them a weapon is actually pretty effective? Seems better than the starting gun actually.

That's fun. I infected the whole world (except for Madagascar. Damn you, Madagascar!) with sneezing. Then I bought Necrosis and Insanity. Zombie plague! I called it Fandango tongue.gif
Eji1700
Yeah madagascar is the luck part. I'm trying to figure out how to get all the traits. Some are random at the eginning while others like ablaze, head popper, and bloody vomit can all be gotten in game, i just don't know how.

Boxhead More Rooms is a zombie killing game that I'm badly addicted to. You've also hooked me to Skyrates, btw.

Finally managed to wipe out the humans in Pandemic. Score: 78,990. Traits: Durable, Parasite, Ablaze, and Decomposer (which is nasty).

How the hell did you get those? The last two that is.

Me too, although I feel I should point out our very own Burrito Loco also plays and currently stands as the leader in both fame and flight time.
gray_shirt_ninja
Yes, BL is quite involved in the Skyrates community.

Ablaze is from the fever and Decomposer comes from necrosis. I was playing on the casual mode too, though I don't know if that makes a difference.

It comes from more than that. i've had just necrosis before and its just necrosis. What else did you have? I know ablaze works with fever and im sure necrosis works with decomposer but theres more.
gray_shirt_ninja
Uh... let me think. Hemorrhaging and vomiting are the only two I can remember. Sorry.

Boxhead is fun.
