And I need to make a list for my grandma :D
I want ideas for computer games or XBox games, and I was wondering if you guys could give me a few ideas, other random fun things are open for suggestion, but keep it realistic.
If you could post a websight related or a discription, and why you like it... That would be great.
I already have Warcraft + Halo, so dont tell me 'bout those (or Starcraft for that matter) :)
thanks,
MP

A set of juggling balls is a very good choice. The more impossible you think juggling is, the better you'll feel and the greater your self-esteem will rise when you realise that you can actually do it. Believe me, I'm speaking from personal experience here.
Nice sig Nahotnoj!

How about an airplane ticket? They say Abu Dhabi is just lovely these days...
But seriously, do you need Xbox games? There are tonnes of other things you could ask for...
Well, if you really must have an Xbox game, why don't you ask your gran to reserve a copy of SC:Ghost for you?
I know you won't have it right there, at that moment, but, just like the juggling thingy BST said.. the more you wait and the more you expect it, the better you'll feel when Blizzard says they won't be releasing it 'til 2010... I mean... when it comes out :D

I remember my last birthday, got 20 bucks as a gift. Good times, but enough about me. If you want games you could probably ask for WoW and a couple of months of time to go with it. Other than that how about a new mp3 player.

Off topic: Those sigs/avys are hillarious, but seriously, you should change them. Not only are they being used without permission, but some people (like me) identify members only by their sigs/avys so one day I might get confused seing the same sig post after post....
On topic: Well I know of a few games that are NOT worth getting:
-The Sims 2
-Roller Coaster Tycoon 3
-Big Rigs (see gamespot (http://www.gamespot.com/pc/driving/bigrigsotrr/review.html))
I'd highly recomend World of Warcraft if you have at least 7 hours of free time per week. Don't whine about the monthly fee; either you can pay 14 bucks a month to be entertained by WoW, or you can buy a new game every other month for 50 bucks. Besides, you don't even need a credit card! Just pick up a pre paid time card from any game store. Its that easy (or else I wouldn't be doing it :P)
If you absolutely can't get WoW, you can always ask your grandma for money :)

Uh... anyway, to answer your question: It's our little... err... cult. We're nahotnoj clones!
Off topic: Those sigs/avys are hillarious, but seriously, you should change them. Not only are they being used without permission, Bzzt! Bzzt! Actually, we do have permission and I can vouch for that.
Of course, I did have to brainwash Jon... but... ummm...
Anyway, in hopes of undoing the spam I've done to this thread:
Have you considered music CD's? You're turning 13, mate... you know you're just going to die for those things during the next 3-8 years, so, you might aswell plan ahead >_>
Screw music cds xP
And wtf nahotnoj clones? *runs and hides*

Games I haven't played but look good
KotOR 2 (http://www.lucasarts.com/games/swkotor_sithlords/) (obviously, StarWars RPG)
Act of War (http://www.atari.com/actofwar/) (RTS set in modern day)
Act of War was PCGamer's #1 game to watch in 2005. Ooh, and Quake 4 is coming out some time this year...

Why the heck have BST and MP become clones of Nahotnoj?!?!? Are you guys drunk? Are you high? Are you drunk and high? Whats the deal here... :confused:

I'd like to ask everyone to discuss the drugs/cloning issue in another thread, as it is starting to take over this one and that is not a good thing...
Just say no to music CDs. They are bad and evil. However World of Warcraft is your friend, and definately worth buying. Besides, if your grandma pays attention to ratings this one wont scare her like some Half Life games we know of...

Yes, why didn't I think of that before? As you know, World of WarCraft is like, the most popular MMORPG in existence at the moment, and many people have been amazed by its incredible artwork and amazing gameplay. I would highly recommend it, although I can't recommend it from personal experience at the moment.

And no, we are not under the influence of any substance whatsoever. We're simply clones of Nahotnoj, how hard to understand is that?

They're the only thing that actually prevents me from purchasing WoW... well, that and that it's a high-end game which would most likely kill my 2002 Compaq Presario 700 >_>
