After having a wife and kid and no longer single soldier in the barracks I find my lack of time and enjoyment to dedicate to things like games has diminished.

Now I won't lie I will probably disappear for a few months when Diablo 4 comes out hahah
I'll apologize now that I caused this thread jack. But now I'm reminiscing. I miss CS 1.2 (before Steam) but 1.6 will always be the champ. CS Source sucked so hard. My biggest throw back to the LAN party days was Q2 LMCTF. Those two games had such a strong and long hold on me.

Finally started to spread out when Starcraft came out and then C&C Generals took me away from Broodwars. Zero Hour was the best expansion ever for an RTS.

Ugh... did anyone else buy Quake Wars and only make it 2 hours before uninstalling? Total crap. And then I fell back to FPS with the Battlefield series. Only started those games with 2142 and jumped straight to B3 from there. Actually still have my favorite B3 wallpaper on my laptop right now.

Used to use Hamachi to vLAN with my buddies as we all started moving away and had a good little stretch of monthly LAN nights. I miss those. It's been forever since a good frag night. Used to take the pony cars out after some Lo3 pug's and race to Bennigan's for 1/2 price apps and shots before hitting the car club hang outs at Automotive Engineering.

Damn... we used to kick ass and have so much fun... now our cars 250% of what they did back then, Bennigan's is gone, any vice other than wine and marijuana is frowned on and nobody hangs out face-to-face anymore.

This blows. Reminiscing ruined. Now I'm a sad panda. </woot>
