| I alos think Jared would enjoy such classic stratehy games like "Operation Europe" for the snes. It's got politics galore! |

Is this a backhanded way of suggesting that anything I'd like must be "all stupid and spoofy"? ;)
But, in reality, I have no interest in such games. Why "play" some computer simulation when you can delve right into the game for real? Real politicking does a lot more good.  |

Is that a word? It almost looks like a spelling error for 'potlucking'.  |

Yes, it's a word. I almost never knowingly utilize non-words! :)

Games? If you like games, don't play games that have politics as the main component- it's mostly a waste of time. And I'm not saying this because I dislike politics or anything... if you take the time to play games, do something you can't do in real life. Like taking control of empires and alien forces and such. I highly recommend Starcraft. In fact, Starcraft is one of the best games ever created, along with Warcraft. So, play it.
My two cents, along with some propaganda.  |

Exactly, only Starcraft is so much better than Warcraft. Starcraft owns all 37 flavors of warcraft. Truly.
To be honest, I kind of want to try that polic type game. That's something I'll never be able to do in real life... ;)
I think Sim City would be a great game for Jared. (I've only played up to 300 unlimited... I don't know how good 4 is.) |

I haven't played 4 either, but Samwise has, and all I've seen him do is create cliffs as animals approach and enjoy watching them plumetting to the ground. (And for some strange reason, they don't die from the impact.)
He says the game is harder than 3, by the way. |

Yeah... SimCity really is a great game.
Jared, have you played any PC games at all, or do you truly despise them? You needs be must play Sim City 3000. It will (maybe) challenge you, and (fo shizzle) entertain you.
Check it out. |
