with some friends and over the radio station I do stuff with do semi
play games.

be made he poles the group of us usually 2 or 3 on the server.

I had a group of friends in Arizona who regularly came over and
played Tenpin Alley. They also got a kick out of the fact that
there was no way to cheat. The computer monitor was turned off,
even though they could not use it when playing the game. Everything
was done using their ears.

Hi tom.
while I agree that card and board games do have value as games to
play with others, at the same time computer games can have a
similar feeling provided you have a group of like minded
individuals together and provided the game is one that several
people can have fun with rather than say a flight sim or complex
stratogy game that requires massive attention.
I remember the occasion when i still lived in colidge where a
couple of friends of mine visited me, but managed to turn up an
hour early so I was in the shower. In defference of what to do, I
literally yelled instructions through the bathroom door (I was
living in one room in colidge with a single attached bathroom), for
them to start up Jim Kitchin's game of life, and we played that
while I finished my shower.
that was hilarious and good fun as well.
As well as playing Talisman and King of Tokio, my brother also
regularly plays the marrio party games with his friends as well,
which are intended as exactly what they say, ie party games, like
computerised board games on the Wii. He also has recently bought
the new Pokemon game and a 3ds, and when not playing a ccg with his
friends they also challenge each other to Pokemon battles. Of
course, since my brother is a major CCG player, he knows plenty of
people who do that sort of thing, and indeed if the games (of
either computerised or not), were accessible odds are I'd do the
same more often with my rp friends.
It all seems to depend upon the games involved and the group of
people and what they choose to do, though I will say where as
computer games, even casual ones like marrio party or Jim
Kitchin's are something of their own interest, anyone can pick up
a good amount of board games and play them out of the box, making
them a far more universal thing.
That is another reason I'd love to see more accessible interesting games.
Beware the Grue!
Dark.
