    Yes for the most part. Although in versus its death match vs. human controlled unique zombies. Although there are no points during the game like what you describe that require the environment to be altered while some of the survivors cover and occupied survivor, when a person is successfully...

    Anyone playing Left 4 Dead?

    @Thanee You mean like puzzle solving or resource management? Its pretty much shoot 'em up. Some parts that aren't pure shoot 'em up: You are given a pretty good load of ammo. If you are careful with it and don't unload a whole clip into one zombie it will last you. There are ammo 'depots'...

    Advice needed - buying a new PC

    I've never owned a Dell. But so far everyone I know who has (close friends, relatives) ran into problems with them. Every computer has problems... so its not particularly Dell's fault or the real issue. The real issue they had was Dell computers use maybe 50-75% of their own custom made...

    Anyone playing Left 4 Dead?

    @Thanee Yes, Co-op is great! There are 4 difficulty setting, Easy - Normal - Advanced - Expert (actually there is a fifth, but it's special and called Versus and used only in the versus game mode). If you want a pick me up and just KILL ZOMBIES to let off steam Normal and Easy are a great way...

    [Mouse Guard] Luke gave us the first copy as a wedding gift!

    Huh. That sort of ruins it then. I just went from "Cool, I am interested in this because it is new and not the same ol' same ol' D&D banter! And congrats on marriage!" to "The game probably isn't that good afterall. Silently wishing you ill will..." Oh well.

    Suggestions for the best Strategy games

    Old Skool (You'll need to do some leg work to get these to run on any modern day Win XP/Vista computer. But most of them are abandonware and thus free): Advanced Civilization Dune II Populus Lords of the Realm 2 Caeser II Fantasy Empires (Bonus! This is a game based on the Mystara world!)...

    Anyone playing Left 4 Dead?

    Single player is very limited. Basically you are running around with 3 bots. Nice as a tutorial but the real meat of the game is multiplayer. There are two multiplayer modes: Coop and Versus. In Coop you play the single player missions but instead of 3 other bots, they are other humans. In...

    Anyone playing Left 4 Dead?

    Any ENers playing Left 4 Dead? I'm having a complete blast with it. With Fallout 3 being another complete disappointment for me after a string of bad game purchases, Left 4 Dead is a great pick me up! My Steam name is Gray Mauser.

    What should be turned into a RPG?

    Never seen it myself. But a quick internet search seems like it would make a fun game. Like a serious version of Kobold's Ate My Baby? I think a Seinfeld game might be too out there, as it would be 'a game about nothing'. But on the other hand, doesn't that describe all RPGs? Hmmm... How about...

    Adventure Ideas

    Good stuff here. Was wondering what you were looking for in terms of feedback though. Constructive criticism? People to post their own? A little of both?

    Re-examining the 5' step

    I forget what game it was from, but a couple years back I remember going over some rules for a game system I ran very briefly (I believe just one session) which had initiative set up in a neat way that I always liked. The game had a cyclical order of combat much like D&D however the person with...

    Trust THE COMPUTER. THE COMPUTER is your friend.

    I have a quick question, what versions of Paranoia are out there? I know of the game, watched/heard it played at various Albany Gamedays (never had a chance to sign up for a game of it yet) and it always looked hilariously fun. So for someone who doesn't own any Paranoia game books but would...

    How Many Battles Per Gaming Session?

    My answer, which is not a choice of the poll options is: all of them. I have all the battles I need in a game session.

    Medeival Geeks! Is There a Term for a Mace-Wielder?

    I remember in the old video game Lords of the Realm 2 they just called them Macemen. Not that the game has any historical or literary weight to it, at all. But the name seems simple enough.

    Movie fight scenes - what level?

    My feelings exactly. I would not play D&D if it was implied to be even half as goofy as that.

    Do you like modrons?

    I find Modrons are a completely stupid creature. I really dislike planes and other worlds of existence. As a GM I really don't bother with other planes at all. So creatures based off alignment-planes are pretty much trash for me.
