Your gaming weakness...

[michael_ab]

Any city-builder or historical trade sim, no matter how mediocre, I always buy them and always end up going back to Patrician 3 and Tropico/SimCity 4 because they're better examples of the genre.

ever try settlers of catan or carcassonne? their board games that have been adapted on the xbox live arcade, you might want to try them out

I've played Settlers of Catan (the board game) with friends, but I no longer play because the friends in question had a couple of babies and are now, as all parents, reduced to intellectual mush and usually covered in drool and baby puke. Cryin' shame, and a hell of an argument in favor of a vasectomy.

Never played Carcassonne, but that probably has more to do with me not owning an XBox (PC-only here) than with disinterest in the game itself.

I love the simulation genre (not for nothing did I choose my username), I just wish there were more good titles in it.

ask them some time, idk about you but every couple of weeks you can find some gaming night, and everyone who attends has kids, young and old. catan is the most popular, although you can efforlessly start a carcassone game, check it out

If anything has the words "Bethesda", "Atlus", or "Mech" on the box, I want it.

MECH!! omg mech, such a great series, sadly they seem to have fallen from grace, a decent knockoff is chromehounds, if anyone has some REAL MECH games that are kinda recent id love to know

well, if the game's not an mmo or a sim, then it is pretty much my achilles heel

Any action game that gives the player teammates wins me over immediately no matter how much it sucks.

Buying games cause their cheap.. I hate myself for it, and almost every time, I end up with some really, really bad game... damm you little nagging voice telling me to buy cheap games ...

The Need for Speed franchise. The games progressively get worse, but I always seem to buy them. With the new games that are coming out I know that it'll be the same old dribble. They'll just add more cars, and it'll have a slightly different story, but I'll still end up buying/playing them.

Same here. I haven't played it yet, but I bought it anyway.

I will buy any game toated as "hilarious," though I do regret buying Psychonauts.

I will buy anything with a BioWare or Amaranth Games label on it.

I will buy any RTSRPG or TBSRPG you stick in my face, reguardless of how old it is or what system it plays on.

Much like I will buy any movie Tim Burton has worked on, I'm a whore for American McGee titles.

I buy games cause they have easy achevments

A good combat system. Boy howdy am I a sucker for that. I'm looking at YOU, Batman AA, Devil May Cry 4 and Bayonetta!
