How is a game from 2006 considered a "classic?" I never even heard of this game before ...

It's difficult for me to believe that, until The Sims was launched, that Myst was the best selling game of all time. I don't think I've met a single Myst fan on any of the gaming forums I've frequented.

Thinking back, for me it's a toss up between the Myst and SimCity franchises. I think there was a deeper emotional connection with Myst though so ultimately I'd have to say Myst (the entire game series) would have to be my top favorite PC game ever.

Breakout was influenced by Pong, although conceptualized and designed by different people. In fact, Steve Wozniak, who went on to co-found Apple, was responsible for building and designing the game, after it was conceived by Nolan Bushnell and Steve Bistrow in 1976.

You must mean Breakout! I also loved that game. It starts out deceptively simple, but definitely keeps getting more difficult. I don't think I ever beat that game.

The constant crashing is exactly one of the reasons they brought back the loading screens. The open world concept, while really cool, introduced far too many bugs and issues into the game. If sure they'll bring back an open world in the Sims 5 *if* they can resolve that (games like World of...

There's the classic Bejeweled game (on version 3 now), and then there is Bejewed Blitz. The primary difference is the time component. In Blitz you only get 1 minute to try and get the most points possible. That makes it a great mobile game because you don't have to keep endlessly playing it, and...

Oh ok I get it now ... those are mostly mobile games. I play Dungeon Keeper Mobile that has that feature.

For single player? I've not head of any. There are plenty of them for multiplayer, like There.com and SecondLife that have persistent worlds.

I have a Mac and several PCs (one dedicated to gaming). I was greatly disappointed in the graphics quality when I tried to play the Sims 3 on the iMac. It actually sucks compared to my PC gaming rig. So I don't play any games on my iMac anymore.

I am constantly reporting the accounts trying to sell gold in WoW, ArcheAge, Aion, etc. I hate those spammers with a passion because they ruin the chat experience.

When it comes to MMOs, then yes I think the game makers need to do whatever they can to reduce/eliminate cheating as it's not fair to the other players. However, in non MMO games (like the Sims) I love that they build in a lot of cheats in the game. I don't always enjoy struggling to help my Sim...

In games like the Sims or SimCity, I just make my own objective, like create a Sim and keep their family line going for 10 generations, or help them become an evil genius. I also love building in the Sims and the building tool in the Sims 4 is fantastic. I love it.

Swimming pools were added back in over a month ago now. In fact they have been making regular, free releases of content for awhile. Within the next week or so they are releasing new careers as well (for free). The first hint we've had about the first expansion came from a voice actor who is...

I know, I have Rift and started playing it a few weeks ago - I just am not familiar with all the possible ways to level a character in the game yet. My primary focus lately has been WoW and Sims 4 for my YouTube channel.

I've only ever leveled through questing in any of the MMORPG games I play, including Rift. I know in WoW you can now also level by playing in Battlegrounds as well, but I've never been that into PvP. I'm not sure if Rift has a similar system or not. If they do, I haven't come across it yet.

That's the thing I noticed too, they really have reduced the amount of "grinding" required for quests and the quests actually have some nice story lines to go with them too. I'm really enjoying the questing, and it all ties in with the new garrison system very well.

Actually it's the 10th anniversary, not the 16th. I'd love the mount but I haven't had enough time to play. I tried the Tarren Mill vs. Southshore once and that's all I've had time for. I only just hit level 91 (sad, right?).

I honestly have no interest in minigames. This thread asked for opinions on minecraft and I stated mine. I will stick to the other games I enjoy playing more. With Warlords of Draenor and Sims 4 out, I have plenty of gaming content to keep me busy.

With the right build, I was able to beat him in World of Warcraft duels though, and we made a pretty decent 2v2 Arena team. I can also hold my own in Need for Speed, if I get to play on a PC with a keyboard (I cannot handle console controllers to save my life!).
