What will be your 'server-down' backup Game?

Clowns · 11-01-2004, 08:42 AM

Just kinda curious as to what people will be playing when your favorite MMORPG is down for patches, fixes, etc. For me I was convinced to make it GW after the WPE this weekend. Mainly because I can still play online, but with no subscription needed. So for me it's EQ2/GW, so far.

What will your backup game be? I would do a poll but I dont know how to get on started.

EQ//EQ2.

EQ2/WoW or RL for me.... depending on how much in the way of giftcards I get tomorrow.

Fulorian · 11-01-2004, 09:28 AM

Half Life 2 and any mods made for it.

Rome: Total War, you know it's good. Or my gf, if she isn't too pissed off at me for playing too much.

Fadaar · 11-01-2004, 10:04 AM

Half-Life 2, Counter-Strike, Diablo II (omg!), Total Annihilation, Warcraft III... basically the same games that have kept me busy during EQ's patches for the last 5 years. Oh and maybe the occassional Shattered Galaxy.

Prince of Persia Two.. if you haven't checked out the demo.. give it a go.. amazing game.

Dynalisia · 11-01-2004, 10:33 AM

Basically any good single player game that's hot at the time.

Uhh... Prince of Persia II is 12 years old.

Hell, Prince of Persia III has been out since 1995. The latest one I know about is PoP: Sands of Time.

I'm not sure what you're thinking about.

As for what I'm going to play in my off-time: Counter-Strike or Unreal Tournament 2004, possibly Warcraft III if ToB:N finally comes out, or another interesting map.

Hell if you put it that way it's my "server up game" half the time too.

Will be a toss up between getting drunk and going to the gym.
