I loved making the rollercoasters crash in Rollercoaster Tycoon! Same appeal as Sim murders.Love this! First games I remember are Shinobi and Mortal Kombat on my brother’s Sega Master System.
Loved Theme Hospital and Theme Park on the PC when I was a kid. Tried getting into Two Point Hospital when it came out but I rage-quit because it was too hard. Still play Rollercoaster Tycoon every now and then when I fancy it.
I’ve played The Sims since it’s release in 2000 and still I can quite easily spend all evening playing it and ignoring my family. Became addicted to Stardew Valley during lockdown. I prefer simulation sort of games. Anything with fighting stresses the hell out of me and I end up panic-shooting everything.
I love House Flipper because it's so chill! It does get repetitive though but the DLC helped with some of that.I’ve recently downloaded House Flipper on Steam. It’s ok but not that challenging or fun, just doing up houses and onto the next mission. My go to is sims 2, always have and always will be, not a fan on the newer ones. If I had a better PC I think house flipper might be good. I’ve also heard about a new life simulation game coming out soon, I think it’s called Paralives. Can’t wait for that. I think something needs to come out to rival the sims or atleast try.
I agree about the Wii games. So many games seem quite violent and sweary now, too. My husband plays Far Cry and it’s full of f this and that, when kids are about or who play it too! (Don’t mean to sound like an old prude.)Buzzing that there's a gaming thread! I'm a bit of a video game fiend, especially during lockdown, I think gaming has kept many minds sane over the last 15 months.
My first console was a game boy colour then a ps2 and I grew up on the family friendly holy trinity of Spyro, Pokémon and... Grand theft auto...I have no idea how that got past my parents I assume it was one of the games that came with the console when they bought it
I genuinely miss the era of the Nintendo Wii, I don't feel like we've had a console since that brings families together like that did, who doesn't fondly remember crushing their family at mario kart? Or their grandma launching a Wii remote into the ceiling at 50 mph trying to bowl a strike? I wish that style of game would make a mainstream comeback.
