Best Video/Computer Game
there seem to be a large number of video/computer games out there with everything from:
-racing cars/boats/motorbikes/snowboards
-quest games with created worlds and characters as well as worlds
- reality quest games like being in a mafia/gang/hitmen/marines/ etc and to find and complete deadly missions
-the run of the mill shooting games where targets get increasingly harder to shoot down or come at you at faster speeds
-abstract games like tetris where the main aim is to get matches
-battle games where you fight another opponent or the computer simulated opponent...
- then the explorative computer games in a world of their own such as Runescape
sorry for not specifying one game over another trying to be broad as possible...so which one kind do hubbers prefer or one even game that stands out for them as best?

Q,
Try GTA:Vice City. One of the best games ever made. If you love 80's music it is even better. After that try GTA: San Andreas.
Mafia is a great game too.

GTA: Vice city is non linear. If a mission is difficult, you can drive over to a different part of town and accept another mission.
Sometimes I just turn on the radio (I particularly like Flash FM station) and drive around Miami (vice city). It is relaxing to just drive around doing nothing and explore the city (believe me it is vast). The ads that you hear over the radio are ridiculously funny. Also the atmosphere that the game pulls you into is just fantastic. While you drive around, the weather changes, day changes into night etc and it is fabulously realistic. If I like a car someone is driving, I just knock the guy over and steal his car. Just dont let the cops see you doing that though.
Do you like 80's music? Laura Branigan's Self Control, Michael Jacksons "Billie Jean", "Owner of a lone heart" from Yes, Mr. Mister's "Kyrie" and "Broken Wings" are just a few of the songs that come over the radio in Flash FM. Of course there are other radio stations to choose from. The music selection is huge.
I am kinda old school too, I grew up playing Digdug, space invaders, commander keen, wolfenstein, prince of persia etc. Heck, I still play Prince of Persia once in while

You have really played GTA:VC? You are a wild gal indeed !
I got stuck with that RC helicopter bombing that building. That thing is so awfully difficult to control. Not reached the level of the Hare Krishnas yet.
Loved chasing the Pizza Boy all around town and run him down. I play that mission often! That guy is a really tricky driver!
Sometimes for fun, I just run down a policeman and get chased by the cops

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell is another nice game. But I did not have the time to go through with it beyond the basic levels.

yeah i know that helicopter part is pretty tough...but the Hare Krishnas are not in vice city they're in the older version GTA III......i don't know if it's wild i mean i seriously don't like the whole slattern clubs and dealing with pimps and crap like that but seriously i love the missions or just cruising around...i guess that's why i like the older version more...
