Osmos Great physicsy game, you have to be patient and move around absorbing the other blobs. Give it a go, great fun. |
|
Gorillas Compensate for the wind, set the angle and speed, and try to hit your opponent with an exploding banana. Classic QBasic game. |
|
Unreal Tournament 2004 Onslaught with extra vehicles is great for LAN sessions |
|
Sopwith Simple, yet great fun side-scrolling plane shooter game. Recommend getting the ported version that runs on modern PCs and trying networked 1v1 |
|
Solitaire Stupid mindless game. I like watching the cards bounce, and then pressing the turbo button to slow them down.. Wheee |
|
Nexuiz Recommended because it's free, will work nicely on mac, win and linux, and doesnt require a stonking graphics card. Good for office-LAN sessions. Team DM and CTF modes are fun. |
|
GoldenEye 007 Had a great time with the 4-player split screen mode, also amazed how true the levels are to the movie |
|
Civilization IV Played 'em all - the civ series are the most addicting games ever made. |
|
Dead Rising Great zombie game - so many zombies.. get the petrol lawnmower and clean up. |
|
Counter-Strike: Source Still the best. Been playing it since beta2 back in 1990-something. |
|
Batman: Arkham Asylum linear gameplay, everything feels entirely scripted. hand-to-hand combat is boring, just mash the buttons to kick ass - no skill required. |
|
Doodle Jump Awesome vertical-scrolling jumper game for the iPhone. Highly addictive. |
