As a matter of fact, I play a lot of RPG, really... almost
everything... I have a binder full of different games character record
sheets... but I do have a favourite one,
DragonLance Fifth Age!

When I attended the High School I used to pass a lot of time in the
arcades... needless to say, I love Video Games! My very first computer
was a Commodore64, of which I knew almost all the secrets. Now I don't
play as much in the arcades, and my favourite CPU games are those Doom-oriented
ones, puzzle ones (to quote few: Myst, 7th Guest,
11th Hour) and F1 simulators. BTW, have you ever finished
Doom at
Nightmare
level? I did... Speaking of arcade, I strongly suggest you to download
immediatly the Multi Arcade
Machine Emulator (MAME) and feel the joy of living the '80... again! Another interesting site:

Definetly my favourites. Let's just say I don't like too
static games (à la Civilization...) but more dynamic
ones... especially the ones in which you move at the same time, like RoboRally
or Blue Max, for example. Axis and Allies,
Shogun
are also great games, of course! Find more about Formula Dé in this site! By far my favourites are the so-called
"german" games: these are made also for non serious gamers, usually involve
from 4 to 6 people and have a playtime of about one hour. Strategy is always
important, luck factor is very reduced, but most of all these games are a load of fun! Highly recommended.
To quote some: Settlers of Catan, Tikal,
Elfenland,
Carcassonne, Torres,
El Grande, Modern
Art, Union Pacific... the list is quite big and you can
find more info @: The Game
Cabinet, at the Luding
database, or visiting the "german game of the year" (Spiel
Des Jahres) site: http://www.spiel-des-jahres.org/

From collectible to non-collectible, card games are still among my
favourites. The idea is that a deck actually is not very expensive, so I
always buy myself a "sacrifical deck" to test the game and I end up having
a ton of card games! Grass is one of my favourite (you try
to earn money selling marjuhana!) but I also play (or have at least played)
Magic,
Netrunner,
Dragonstorm,
Kult,
Battletech,
Groo,
Bonhanza, Mamma Mia!
and a bunch of Italian games. I'm looking forward to buy more!
Of course my beloved one will always remain... Poker... ;^)

Finally,
something that I don't play that much...! I have a favourite one, obviously,
Warzone,
from Target Games. Despite
the smaller diffusion, compared to Warhammer
40k (Games Workshop) for example, this miniatures game features
some very good rules at a convenient price... I do have a Brotherhood Army.
I decided to go with them for their ability in casting spells, but I also
love the way those little Inquisitors look! Target also released the fantasy
inspired Chronopia.

Live RPG: I use to play Alexander, a MalKaVi@n vampire in
The Masquerade...
Chess
(not at a competitive level, though, but I'd love to), Abalone...
Subbuteo... yeah, those fancy little soccer men...
DragonDice...
