kennybrooks Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I would suggest the original Majesty for the PC. I still play this regularly. Not too stressful and eventually the characters play out on their own for the most part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybergoth Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Frogger - 20 minutes of low speed abstract excitement. Probably a bit faster, but did you try de Blob already? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turd Furgason Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 i would suggest Paper mario : the thousand year door (if you have a gamecube) its funny/kinda mindless/ with some elements of RPG. It was alot of fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kisrael Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 What's kind of weird is that I didn't notice it was my good buddy liveinabin when I first posted -- I think the non-Jet Set Willy avatar threw me off. What systems do you have? And yeah, ExciteTruck is pretty amazing, though in head to head play I'm skeptical of the whole scoring system...

warmachine Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 If you've got a somewhat decent pc, you should try trackmania nations. It's a free racing game that you can check out here. http://www.trackmania.com/en/index.php?lan...amp;rub=nations It's surprising how fully featured this game is considering it's free. It's based more on beating track times than actual head to head racing, but it does have an online racing mode if that's what you're looking for. It's also got an online leaderboard if you want to compare your track times with everyone else and includes a track editor so you can create your own tracks and share them online. This game is worth checking out, especially if you like free stuff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSAeN83-9-M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinball22 Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Since it's a couple of years old, you may have already played this and not mentioned it, but just in case: since you like Katamari Damacy, you should definitely try Elebits.

liveinabin Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 Elebits is nice. I do have it, although they stupidly called it Eledees here. Goodness knows why, it's a stupid pun. @cybergoth - De Blob and Boom Blox do look great. At the moment, though, I'm not really in the market for a puzzle game. Some great suggestions from you all though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, I'll keep trying until I find something good for you Do you know about "Secret Files: Tunguska" for example? It's not as funny as Sam & Max or Zak, but otherwise a very solid point'n'click adventure for the Wii. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liveinabin Posted February 5, 2009 Author Share Posted February 5, 2009 Is it good? I've looked at it a couple of times but never picked it up. As for good games for me, DaytonaUSA has introduced me to the marvellous world of Little Big Planet. Being, as it is, more of a full blown dev. kit than a game, it's going to keep me wildly busy for ages. Confidence in gaming restored! Actuall, Manuel, if you ever get a PS3, I'd heartily recommend it. You've obviously got a keen eye for game design, I'd love to see what you could do with this.

DaytonaUSA Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 I'm glad you're enjoying it! I need to spend more time playing it and make my own level fir you all to play sometime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybergoth Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Is it good? I've looked at it a couple of times but never picked it up. I've only ever played a PC demo of Tunguska, which felt very promising. The Wii version is on my shopping list, but I'm still waiting for a significant price drop Actuall, Manuel, if you ever get a PS3, I'd heartily recommend it. You've obviously got a keen eye for game design, I'd love to see what you could do with this. I'm very slow on Sony consoles, just got my first PS2 this christmas. If LBP is still up and running in 2020, I'll give it a try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
