  • Giants and other "old" games

    I know we had this kind of thing pop up not too long ago, but it was limited to RPG's

    So, I hit the bargain area, and got a game or two. <I>Carmageddon 2</I>, which was fun when I warezed it in college, but now that I bought it I can't get it to work, because it insists the CD isn't in the drive.

    And <I>Giants: Citizen Kabuto</I>. This game is soo much fun so far. The humor is great. $20 well spent, it seems. The G400 shows its age some, but it's still quite playable. The only downside is that I haven't figured out how to get EMBM enabled. BTW, if anybody plays Giants online, I want to try it out.

    So, what other games are out there that are cheap but fun?

    I played B&W until Land 4. Then it just got to be a hassle. And I knew there was a "curse" bug, that I don't know if a patch was ever released for.

      Where did you pick up Giants for $20? I've been looking for it on occasion, but still see it for about $35.

      I'd also like to try Sacrifice (came out about the same time as Giants). It got pretty good reviews... should be available for about $20 by now as well.

        I got it from a chain in the mall, called "Babbages". They also had Torment for $15.
