Dedicated ally or tenacious enemy...

Gaming is the cheapest way to escape at home without the effects of drinking then driving or sleeping at friends houses or being away from the family. Its a part of life just like the AWP is part of CS. Just accept it and allow people to be who they are to play games if need to and not to make them be who they want them to be. All things in moderation of course...

RTS - Real time status)
1st - Forged Alliance (played on FAF (Fored Alliance Forever community game lobby), Multiplayer
2nd - Anno 2070 (Sim city style RTS on islands where must handle all levels of society needs while competing with other enteties with trade and war if necessary
3rd Age of Empires 3 (cant say enough but its a dated RTS lacking control of units so its attrition style war and updates made it too cheating like)
FPS - First Person Shooter
1st - Battlefield 4 (simply to play and talk with those I know as squad warfare style) multuplayer
2nd - Counter Strike (1.6 thru source) Super fastc simple and adrenaline injecting multiplayer
3rd - Half Life (you versus mind blowing intergalactic horro style story line) single player
TBS - Turn Based Strategy
1st - Total War 2 (various versions - turn based RTS meaning you can control epic battles of thousands of units on a battle field if choose and strategically take over world but poor dipplomacy) single player
2nd - Civ 5 (Similar to Total War TBS but more flexible on territory growth but leave AI alone and it will win if going for all victory styles)
