The brit Out: There's a new (old) sheriff in town :O

Good morning...


That's basically all I have.
And I like the cold. It's... calming.
And, unfortunately, I'll have to wait until June for Winter in South Africa, and I hate Summer (I can't concentrate when it's a hot day) so...

"My torture has just begun..."

Too bad for you. Wherever you live the best time of the year is always winter's.

You've obviously never grown up where you can get 4 feet of snow and temps going down to -30

Wish i could see it too.

I don't think I could run the 2nd, and as for the first it's too old for me to bother. Can't be arsed to learn it, although I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to as I'm sure some of the conventions are the same as others.

Kinda feel like playing Galactic Battlegrounds now though

I can't blame you though, I probably wouldn't bother learning how to play an old RTS.

I will say I do love skiing, been a long time since I have though.

It would be different if I had played it back in the day and then revisited it.

If your laptop could run it then I would strongly recommend getting SC2, there is a new game that should be out in the coming months and it has a huge following online that you would never have problems getting games online.

Ah.

Given how much I like RTS games it's strange I've never played any Starcraft at all.

I don't play RTS games.
Because if my father sees one then he orders me to go away from the computer.
Whether I want to or not.
Thus, RTS games are useless in my opinion.
Burn, RTS, burn.

Why RTS games in particular?

I have never even seen snow.
The coldest it ever was at Gansbaai was 14°C.

Actually I just checked and it looks like I could run it. Probably at low settings though. My integrated graphics would hurt it.

I'd probably be to afraid to play against anyone online Been way too long.

And of course I wouldn't get a legitimate copy and don't know if it would work online anyways.

[Shane]

Because my father likes them.
My previous computer was full of RTS games, and every time I played one, and my father noticed, he told me to go away because he wanted to be at the computer for things that involve his work, and then the next thing I knew, he was playing the RTS game.

I don't know if there are other games that I hate, however, since I am a forgetful person.

Well there is a practice league were you get 50 matches which have no outcome on how you are ranked and you are pitted against some very new players.

Although it's not worth if you discover you can't run it.

Well, once I beat a few of these games piling up and free up some space I'll grab it from somewhere and give it a shot. Game debate says I could run it and their system requirements section has always been spot on for me
