I think this has been done before. But hey...

Right. If you could only play five games, what would those five games be? I suppose you would have to think of lastibility, and all that stuff.

Here's mine.

1) Heroes Of Might And Magic Trilogy.

Strangly enough, these are the games, that no matter how many times I complete them, I still go back to them. I still haven't figured out why, though...

2) Unreal Tournament.

The bots just make the game unbelievably amazing, because the A.I. is the best going. Certainly one of the games of the year.

3) The Sims.

I suppose being stuck on your own would drive you insane. I suppose this could add life to your own, and stop you from going mad.

4) Rollercoaster Tycoon.

Humm. Still not sure why. But management is a good type of game, and this is the best management game.

5) Freespace 2.

Possibly the best ever game that uses a joystick, this has to be one of the most exciting and tense games ever made.


There. I've shown you mine, now you show me yours.

1. SambaDeAmigo
2. Quake 3
3. Virtua tennis
4. Dead or Alive 2 (very appropriate)
5. Desert Strike - so when people ask why you're not helping to gather food and such things you can just merely state your own desert strike! Ho Ho!

And this is on a desert island then?

1. Console
2. TV
3. The wires
4. Controller
5. Really long extension cord to plug everything into the mainland.

Damn. No games.

Forget the controller, I'll have ludo.

Humm. This is quite hypothetical.

Wouldn't take Ludo, anyway, oh no.

Hmm.
Ludo could get really annoying, but then you could always throw the pieces at people?
