So what games do Austrians play? I'm a big fan of series like the final fantasy, god of war, and civilization. Resistance, modern warfare 2, and bioshock are three of my favorite games that have come out recently

I used to play Final Fantasy back in the SNES era. I have a ton of ideas about developing better RPGs and better games in general, but I don't play much these days (except an old Street Fighter 2: Champion Edition I found at an arcade near my house).

I've been playing Left 4 Dead 2 and Dragon Age pretty much nonstop the last few weeks. The only console game I play is rock band; I'm a PC guy myself. I love the classics like Baldur's Gate, Planescape: Torment, Starcraft, etc.

I use to game much more, but my free time has been increasingly eaten up by reading and playing music.

Old games ROCK. Anyone have Alpha Centauri or Doom? I absolutley adored the custom games in Warcraft 3... Alliance vs. Horde and another game I can't remember the name of now took up like all my free time a few years ago.

Just got Zelda: Spirit Tracks for DS and its way better than Phantom Hourglass if anyone here has played it. The music is great and the setting is intriguing. I have only played for a couple hours so far, but I heartily recommend it.
