    Easy to get into Strategy Games...

    If you want a really slow-paced but fun game, try Sins of a Solar Empire. It's a lot like a slower-paced WCIII in SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE.

    Wait a second, that WORKED?!

    The one thing that comes to mind is KotOR. I remember having a lot of trouble with Calo Nord for some reason, so eventually I just set about 50 stacked mines in front of him and ran like hell. He died a horrible death. It was funny.

    What was your first REAL violent game?

    For me, I guess it would be Half-Life 2. My parents got me the orange box, mostly for portal, and I ended up playing and loving all of the other games. Up until then my parents hadn't let me play M games.
