    I'm rarely gaming, but if I do, it has to be Zelda.
    "A Link To The Past" and "Ocarina Of Time" are my favorit games.
    I have good memories of playing "Super Meterorid" as well.

       I tried my hand at "SuperFlight"  (falling/gliding down through the air trying to avoid the looming mountains/buildings/holes/canyons/whatever).  I always smash into someting within minutes.frown  Bah, if God had intended men to fly he would have given them flappable wings.cheeky  Now I play the game pretending I'm someone else and trying to find a place I can smash into.  Perhaps if I run into it enough times, I'll break through it.enlightened

       But now that I've "fixed/bypassed" the "Conveyance Pod" bug in the game "Firmament", I've established power, and made my way back to the "Vault" area, which is where I got stuck a year ago.  But this time, I have a better idea how to tackle it.yes

    Oh, I played Superflight for a while, ususally while listening to a podcast! I found it very relaxing. If they had put just a tiny bit more work into the graphics I'd probably be playing it still.

    Well, good things happen. My wife asked me what I wanted for Father's Day. I told her I wanted the Thrustmaster HOTAS, and in about seven days, it will be here.. And what do you know, they have MSFS 2020 on the Xbox PC+, which I have a subscription to. I already have a bunch of older flying games that are Thrustmaster-compliant. I'll have to try my new system component with this game: DCS World (digitalcombatsimulator.com), especially DCS: A-10C Warthog (digitalcombatsimulator.com). I haven't tried either of those games.

    Here is some game footage of me playing No Man's Sky. I did the weekend mission and then went to my two main bases to do a quick walk through. It's the first game footage I've ever recorded and uploaded.

    These days, about the only actual games I play are the puzzle games on my Android tablet... the sort of thing where you're moving randomly-placed objects on a bunch of shelves into groups of three to clear them out of the space and get at the other random objects behind those, or the Majogn-tile ones, and so forth.

    And the closest I get to MORPG sorts of things.... is Second Life... which is really less of a MORPG and more of a giant 3D chatroom with scenery and sometimes role play.  Mostly I go to music-club events there these days, though.

    And yeah, the green boy in the foreground in this screengrab is me.

    "Riven" was one of my favorites.  And I just saw a trailer for a modern release/remake of it.  Basically the same as the original, just modernized.  Available July 23rd, I think.  I have a small collection of various releases of "Riven".  I believe that I have a DOS CD version, a Win95 CD version.  A Win98 CD version. And a Win98-DVD version.  At least I think those are the versions I have.  I know I had several picked up at flea markets over the years, but I squirreled them away in a box 15 years ago. My personal first version, bought from the store, was the DVD version on my first home computer, a Win98 system.

    I do not play computer games anymore, unless I run them in Unity game engine,

    where I can change most of the features, I want.

    For me using Unity is as much entertaining as using Daz Studio for renders.

    In the past I have enjoyed many games, like Defender on Timex 2000 (2 KB of RAM),

    Manic Miner on ZX Spectrum, Sims and the other simulation games on PC.
