Mezrabad Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 Spend the time with your family instead. I agree, spend the time with your family, but if you must spend it playing videogames then pick four player games like Warlords. You could even get a Gamecube and spend time with your family playing Crystal Chronicles and Super Monkey Ball. Xbox Pirates is fun with four players, too. But seriously, take walks with your family, read to your kids, snuggle and watch movies with your sweatheart. If you are still single spend time with the people you love.

majinbuu Posted November 12, 2006 Author Share Posted November 12, 2006 well I don't have too many people close to me except my brother. I was hoping I could spend time with him playing games and trying to forget what is to come. That's why I wanted a top 10 list. Thanks so far for your help.

dwh Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 What is this; Final Destination 4? If so, I want to at least die in some freaky accident way involving the Atari 2600, with a high-score on the screen... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpfalcon2003 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 kinda hard to say with all the new Homebrews coming out. Still really young here but own all the Nintendo systems as well, so I'm sure it would be split up on both systems since I like both equally.

Crazy Climber Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 (edited) well I don't have too many people close to me except my brother. I was hoping I could spend time with him playing games and trying to forget what is to come. That's why I wanted a top 10 list. Thanks so far for your help. Here's something fun to do. Buy a large lot of Atari 2600, like 50 or so. Try for instructions but if not most of them are readily availible on line. You and your brother could have a blast looking at the labels first and trying them all out, see what they end up looking/playing like. This is a lot of fun and really wouldn't take that long. I could give a top ten list but you would have a lot more fun doing it this way and discovering which ones you like on your own. Also sometimes games are soooo bad it's almost funny and that alone can make them worth a play now and then Edited November 12, 2006 by Crazy Climber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxsolo2000 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Hmm lets see. There aren't ten games that I can think of but three that woudl rank as the last games I ever play would be :- 1 An original copy of Magicard due to the fact I have never seen one in the wild. 2 Go Go Home Monster for the same reason as above. 3 Good Luck Charlie Brown unless it gets dumped soon.

Also sometimes games are soooo bad it's almost funny and that alone can make them worth a play now and then I agree, this is a great way to have fun together and can be much cheaper than to buy certain games, bulk lots with systems can be really cheap and the exploration through the games can be hours of fun.
