OK Just out of interest what is every ones Guilty Pleasure when it comes to Games ? i.e Train simulator or Farming simulator lol, Come on every one has a guilty pleasure that we dont talk about on the forum so lets own up. Whats your guilty pleasure when it comes to Gaming ?

For me, I play FSX quite a bit and yes i will fly a fairly long leg on auto pilot checking all the systems etc and even use autopilot to land :p fairly pointless some will say but i really enjoyed learning how to fly a commercial Jet correctly following every little bit.
 
Not a guilty pleasure as such, more an obsessive compulsive disorder, as in the Men of War games I studiously collect every scrap of ammo from dead bodies and store it in anything I can wheel about the map, i.e. tanks or mobile guns, just so I have a cache of ammo I will almost certainly never use.
 
Well I dont know if this fits in your thread, but I kind of feel like a an old war veteran when it comes to Couner-Strike, I just cant let it go man, I dont think anybody understands, I loved that game so much, and I've never been better at any game in my entire life, I seriously used to own every server, joined a server (kicked and banned) join next server (kicked and banned) I'd join a server, kill 5 people in first round, then it would disconnect and a big message came up saying BANNED! Do you know how good that made me feel? lol

I know this sounds really sad, but it was like a job, it was like a passion, it was like something I loved, you know like bodybuilders love lifting weights? I loved owning in counter strike.

I dont think I'll ever be good at another game like I was in CS ever again for rest of my life, I still play it now sometimes, like once every 2-3 months for a couple of hours, and sometimes I still do good and am top of score board with like 25-5 but quite often I get owned because the people playing these days after what 10 years? are the hardcore people that used to love it as much as I did, and dont want to let it go, so I guess thats why the people that are still playing are so damn good.

My aim and reflexes are like nowhere near what they once was, I cant seem to get it back but I still remember the maps and the weapons and the camping spots etc so I know where to find people, and I still live walking about and listening for footsteps.

Think I played hardcore for first 4 years from release date, thats when I was at my best, in my element, and then continued for another 2 years and then for past 4-5 years just played on and off, so I'd say I pretty much played it everyday for first 6 years though.

Counter-strike always will be the best game I've ever played, and it will always be in my heart for the rest of my life.
 
My guilty pleasure is a game called Army Men RTS, remember that?

It was a really fun rts game that didn't take itself too seriously. Hardly COH or even C+C, but great fun.
 
Kayne + Lynch 2. I like playing through a level of it when I'm too drunk to play anything else:o Almost finished it:D
 
Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing. A severely underrated classic, have logged hundreds of hours on it.














Seriously, tho... Games from my childhood via emulator would be it I guess. Not really into anything (well, gaming-wise ;)) I'd worry about certain others finding out about :p

I had a go at a Men of War game around my mates house a few weeks ago. It was literally the hardest game I have ever tried to play :(
 
Age of Conan, which is actually really good these days, but going by the reaction of some people on this forum, you'd think you should be on a police register for going anywhere near it :p
