All I can really play is TetrixDX on Game Boy Color.
With the Super Game Boy attachment, I like to play
Bomberman on the big screen {an older version}.

My sons are playing Halo on XBox and Super Smash Brothers
on GameCube.

All I hear is a lot of hooting and hollering down the hallway. That
and the new Red Hot Chili Peppers.

I guess I will let them enjoy. It is summer. I just wonder if the neighbors nursery is next to their window? Hmmm........

I was playing Grand Theft Auto III (PC) for a while but have quickly grown bored. It just isn't that engaging (and I'm told that the misogyny later in the game is increasingly distasteful).

So I've switched out for Warcraft III (also PC) and am enjoying myself much more; even if I am only on the third campaign or so.

I'm sooooo addicted to Sim Theme Park. One of my parks is up to 54 million dollars. :)
I have a Mac so I don't have the PC games Sim Rollercoaster, Ultimate Ride, Rollercoaster Tycoon etc.
(It's a great incentive to buy a PC, I tell you what.)

Tetris
Free Cell
Hearts
Solitaire
Minesweeper

I'd play Dungeon Keeper 2, but my CD-ROM's been broken since I got it.

If you get a PS2, check out "Theme Park Roller Coaster", a port of STP to PS2. With better graphics. :)

The PC version just doesn't have what the PS2 version has:

Easy Gameplay.

PC, you have to do key combos and stuff, and on PS2, it's just 10 buttons. :)

I'm playing the old "Should I try Linux or stick to Windows 2000" game again, this time with the SuSE 8.0 (http://www.suse.com/us/products/suse_linux/i386/index.html) option. I suspect Redmond is going to carry the day again, though, because I'm lazy and don't want to break what works well enough for my purposes.

Thats why I have a quad-boot system:

1. Windows XP
2. Mandrake Linux 8.0
3. Windows ME
4. Dos 6.22

EverQuest, Morrowind, and Return to Wolfenstein have been the games du jour on my computer. (Tho I've actually been an EQ addict for about a year and a half now).

Morrowind is the follow up game to Arena and Daggerfall (Elder Scrolls series). The visuals are great on this open ended RPG. Unfortunately, after playing online with all my friends in EQ, the game feels a little lonely!

Return to Wolfenstein is hands down the best shooter I've ever played. What could be better than saving the world from the Third Reich?
