... Fucking Windows.....

A working MoO for 6$, with no hassle of emulating it?! And MoO2 tossed in for nothing?!

>_< Dammit dammit dammit dammit dammit... that is so unfair... >_<

I love it because no matter how fucked up it is, I've been using Windows since I was 6 pretty much every day so it's like when you love the imperfections of a loved one LOL

You... do realize I was being envious... right? MoO is my favorite game of all time... and a Windows user can buy and play it for 6$, with MoO2 thrown in free to sweeten the deal (which is a great game in its own right). These are games I have spent hundreds of hours of my life playing. If I didn't know I could emulate it (as annoying as that is) or download the Classic Environment (if it indeed works in Snow Leopard)... this is a game I would pay the cost of a cheap Windows computer just to play it again. I am full of fucking envy towards anyone who is already a Windows user... 6 fucking USD for MoO + MoO2...


Not that I don't otherwise hate Windows, of course...

Oh I didn't spot the envy... maybe I'm not good at spotting an emotion I don't tend to ever have

Don't tend to have*

Get rid of "ever" in there you pedant

Anyway... I can't think of a single good reason not to buy this game if you can play it... though I may be biased for having spent months of my life worth of time with it

[Edwardo Piet]

*I perhaps don't ever have.

Fixed.

Lol.

I just fucking love retro games.

"Retro"? I know http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_of_Orion came out in 1993... but I've yet to play a game in it's genre that tops it (hell, I've yet to play a game that tops it... but maybe i just love the genre )

Wow... 17 years old...

0.o The game is as old as I am

I first used a computer in 1993 I think... It was a school computer

I first used a family computer when I was 6. And had my very first computer game on my 7th birthday - YAY!

That would make you likely 4 SolIVY... at most 5...

Which means you started gaming at most 3 SolIVY before me

I also bet I've spent much much more time gaming than you

For one, I first went out of the house on my own when I was 18... I spent most of my life indoors.

Second of all, I spent hours and hours a day gaming for years... and I internet gamed since I was 12. And then I started playing even more regularly.

The last few years I was a gamer, up until late 2006 - I basically did nothing else, and then I started getting up early AND staying up late playing... the last year and a half gaming it was like 16 hours a day, not counting toilet and meals and baths. I basically just played other than that. I basically never went out and never on my own lol.

I have to be perversely proud of my gaming years though, because if I'm not I'd probably sit my back up against the corner of a room, cry, and not stop LOL j/k

Nah, best years of my life however fucked-up lol.
