Stronghold Delux

So I was at my other house this weekend away from any computer that is really capable of playing newer games, but I still had a itch to play something. So after a about 15 or so minutes of browsing around Gametap.com, I found the game Stronghold Deluxe. Was made way back in the darkages so I figured it would work on this computer from back then. Work it did.

So then I booted it up and was greeted by a RTS/City building games as far as I can tell so far. I say as far as I can tell because I only got to the second level of one of the campgins. I also found out that I now SUCK at such games.

The discovery of my sucking though also made it fun to play with a bit. In the MMO world of just running and killing, this old bad boy is going to really give me a run for my money I feel. I don't doubt that I'll have more then a few missions where I am swearing at the computer in anger by the time I get along in this little gem. The thing about that though is I will only be playing this game on that computer. so I'll be doing MAYBE 5 hours a month with it. Should be fun though!

OK, this is a real new start that is going to finally work!

Well here we are again, trying keep up my posting. It has been a long time now so I think this little guy is going to be just a update of what I am doing and what I plan on doing in the near future.

MMORPG's
Currently I have a sub to LOTRO and EVE. They are both fun games and I am planning on keeping withe them both. I just joined a rather large kinship in LOTRO and am going to start looking for a corp in EVE just as soon as I get a new headset. Playing EVE in a corp without voice chat just does not work that well really.

Other Games
Well currently I am not working on another game as of yet. I am looking around Gametap to see what I want to start playing. I'll be giving my impressions on it just as soon as I find something interesting.
