My B-day is coming up, so i need help on what to ask for....

Generally i'm looking for a Game PS2 or PC, that has no official ending, where i can play it a thouand times with different results, pretty much a strategy game.

Multiplayer is a bonus.

So....my b-day is this month, now start giving me suggestions on what to nag for. -.-

Unless you can think of something else...i am turning 20

So i will no longer be a teenager...by my logic anyways. ;p

Hmm. Try asking for gift cards to your favourite shops. Or a taser. Can't go wrong with a taser.

If you are a male, how about a good looking babe? If you are a female, how about a real stud? Unless you are a stud who likes studs or a babe who likes babes. In any case, "We report, you decide." :D

Oh, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Get either an exotic pet, an exotic weapon, or an exotic pet holding an exotic weapon.

I am a Straight Human Male Conservative...I do not know why you are calling me a horse for. ;p...unless i am a nifty smart horse. like that sexay Mr. Ed...or was that a monkey. w/e.

And i don't have favorite shops....i stay inside, or go to other peoples houses...=)

That's why i like Multiplayer...the ability to talk and converse with other people, who don't care, if your telling the truth, or how experienced you are. XD

No dirty thoughts. >_<


EDIT: .... no silly presents....well not silly, i want plausible. Unless you know a store that sells knife weilding monkeys, or horses with sub-machine guns. ;)

20 is a big year - play it like that. If you make it seem bigger, you can bigger presents. Make a big deal out of turning 20, and see if you can get a new computer, or better yet, a car. Then next year just ask for a 30. See, tradeoffs!

I don't have a drivers license...too lazy to learn. ;p

A new computer is nice...but i just got a new one. XD

So that just leaves games....good try though. =)

What I meant by shops was Fry's, Best Buy, or other electronics store, or Barnes and Nobles or Walden Books if you like books.

The only game I can think of recommending right now for its replay value is Freelancer, for the PC, as well as its multiplayer ability.

No driver's license? At 20? Your either really rich and don't need one, really poor and can't get a car or jut a dumb loser.

And you want Knights of the old Republic 1 and or 2, or fable: the lost chapters, when it comes out

Don't you just love people MuhOre? You ask a question on a certain subject and get nothing but answers that have nothing to do with the subject. Sheeesh! Anyway, I own over 200 computer games and I too love strategy games. So from the games I have played, I recommend the following: 1) Galactic Civilizations 2) Civilization 3 and 4 3) Medievel: Total War & Medieval: Viking Invasion (Expansion) 4) Empire Earth 1 and 2 5) Imperial Glory. Those are my top 5 anyway. Sorry, I can't help you on PS2 games. Happy 20th!

For your B-day, ask for a baday!


or alternatively, Rome Total War for the pc. unless you like RTS games, in which case I have no real opinion. Rome has a good Turn based section as well, but I like my RTS battles.

Generally I don't ask people for anything - so when it's their birthdays I don't have to give them anything! :D

HEY! MY FRIENDS ARE RICH. I'M NOT!

the only thing without official endings is RPGs, RTSs all have official endings on single player mode because it is a storyline they follow

Maybe he's just not American? There are quite a few spots on this planet where you can get along just fine without a driver's license.

Sim City 2000, YEAH! .. that's the only strategy game I've ever played though my brother installed StarCraft on my PC a long time ago.

They are so very sexay, yes. =)

Hmmm, the Empire Earth 2 game looks very good....i'll consider that.

Right now i'm not so sure i want games anymore though. =\, i'll probably get bored of them very quickly.......so i want something to help me in the long run.

Since i like History, Warfare and Politics, right now i'm searching books....so if you guys have any suggested ones...list them. =D

OK, how about some nice English Leather after-shave and cologne?

I am perlexed on what that has to do with me being a Straight Human Male Conservative, althought it does sound comforting....

As well as i am Canadian...we're too poor to get cars. ;p, that's why we use our sub-par subways and buses and such...... or bike. =)

You'd be surprised how small Canada actually is....at least when connected by civilization that is. Then again, calling Canada a civiliation seems like an insult, to those that actually have them.

Why i'm bringing up politics is another questions...oh well C'est La vie, and Vive le Quebec!
