  • Online Gaming for us older people.

    Ok.. I told myself I would never do the online gaming thing but .. the right one came along. I have been playing a FREE online game called Wolfenstein ET. It is a first person shooter game that is based on WWII, you know, the whole Allies v. Axis thing. For me this is like a minature vacation and a good stress relief. You can search on the internet for Wolfenstein ET downloads and find a suitable site to download from. When you set it up there are multiple game servers you can choose from. I always play on -=PDP=-Clanserver XPS so if you would like to play come and see. My tag name is-=PDP=-Chris If you want more information come by the website http://paperinosclan.org and stop by the forum to drop a line.

    If you have a particular game you like to play online let me know.

        Anyone here like Civilization IV or Star Wars: Empire at War? :P

        I used to play a little World of Warcraft, but I'd avoid those MMORPG's, they're just way too time consuming.

          Sorry kimo... I'm trying to stay true to the colors... if you highlight it you can see it better. and about us older people I mean old enough to drink and rent a car at the same time.

            I haven't personally because they ARE too time consuming. My wife would kill me.

            I like star wars alot but i havent been able to get into the cult thing too much. I have heard alot of great things about it.

              Wow, this is pretty cool - I just made my first post in the intro forums and now I find I got a fellow ET player here too

              Unlikely our paths will cross on servers tho as I guess you'll be mainly on the west coast US ones - my ping from UK usually >200 so kinda tough to play. Not to mention it's the middle of the night here when all you guys are fragging the daylights out of each other.

              Nice clansite too - drop into http://www.fatalpunishers.com sometime if you got a minute to find where I can most often be found making a nuisance of myself

              You never know, maybe we'll bump into each other on a server sometime

              You don't need to know all the answers. No-one is smart enough to ask you all the questions

                Miniature vacation huh? Playing WWII shooting up people as a good stress relief...hmmm I hope I never see you on my vacation I guess I'm an older older person as I honestly don't see the stress relief in that scenerio at all.

                Now Google Earth as boring as it sounds is nice. Got to visit my old neighborhoods I've lived in over my lifetime.
                Life is what you make of it...so please read the instructions carefully.

                  HT's very own Pa'ani section is a good place for "older people" gaming.

                  Best part, you don't have to know which combination of X-O-V-[-] to press. Just press each other's "buttons".

                      Easy kine, brah. Go to New Orleans!
                      Get da rental car at the airport there, pull out of the airport, and in the first few blocks you'll start seeing the DRIVE-THROUGH DAQUIRI stands! Fo' real. See lotsa folks there drivin' around holding da sytrofoam cup. Guess it's okay with the police as long as yer car isn't weaving around.

                          Wow... From Scotland. Cool I've always wanted to visit Scotland. I heard it was very beautiful there. I checked out the website. Do you guys use a shrubbot system? Its funny I'm a Co-Leader on our servers. We have 3 founders 2 co-leaders and the rest are members. Our server is located in Dallas, Texas USA. We have plenty of European players. Our 3 founders are in Europe. One is in Switzerland one is in GB and another is in Australia. I'm in Hawaii and we have a multitude of Finnish players. Only a couple of the members are on the mainland US. You shouldn't have any problem visiting.

                          Good to meet you.
