We have a couple of games we play on our computers one is called super collapse which is blocks that you have to clear off the board to earn points. Which is a pretty fast paced game. Then there is another one on the internet we play which is called video squares this is a fun game. It is sort of like super collapse but the differents is the squares fill in with a bright lite green color when your done. I have made it to level 16 on that one but to only level 8 on super collapse. So My question to you is do you play games on your computer? What is your favorite game to play on your computer? Do you pause your game to check on my lot for responses? Do you have a special time you just paly games on your computer? Do you know of free web sites that you can play online?

I know many girls are super fans of computer games but I don't know why I never like playing those. I purchased a simulation hotel computer game several months ago which I installed onto my computer, but I never got the impulse to start playing that. It's now still sitting in my computer untouched.

Hi Amonyel and welcome to my lot. I don't install things that I can't really use until I get a chance to try it out to see if I might like it. And if I like it I will download it to a cd so I can play it when ever I get a few minutes. If I haven't used something on the computer in a long time I clean it off the computer so I don't have a slow down on my computer. The more stuff you have downloaded the longer it takes to do things on the computer.

That's so true. I always have this problem. As my interest is very diverse I got interested in things, immersed in them for a while and then switch to something else. Whenever I see something (e.g. software) that looks helpful to my interest on that day, I download it. After I switch to another hobby, I don't bother to remove the software from my computer. As time goes by, my computer is loaded with so many stuff which I don't use anymore. Then I think my computer is too slow and need to buy a new one. I blame the inefficiency of my computer to its old model, but in fact it might be the junk I keep in my computer.

Hi Amonyel. Yes I would suspect the cause of your computer running slow is all the junk on your computer. Clean it out and see how much better it will run. I have been using the same computer since 2000 and it runs faster then some of these new ones on the market. Good luck

of course! and I´m a girl,btw. But I´m always finding new and interesting games to play online.why? Cos the online games are a pretty alternative to relax yourself a little bit if you are already bored of studying or working online.one of my favorites are the games where you have to dressup a doll (hehe),or the traditional tetrix or puzzle games.And I don´t have any special time to play;I play everytime I have a little spare time

Hi Particlegirl. I love to have a few minutes to play my games. Would like to find sites that have like pac man that is like the original pac man. I loved that game I would love to find a site where you could play like Mario brothers for free without having to download stuff on my computer.

Hi Vrajmson and welcome to my lot. I like to play only a couple of games on my computer. I do play chess it is called soft chess. My husband and I play chess all the time. But someone we know had come to visit and took one piece of our chess set and so we have to use one from a different partial set we have. We know who took that one chess piece. But to the life of us can't figure out why this guy would take a chess piece, unless he done it by accident.

Yes, I have played computer games. Most of them are on Pogo.com. I have played the collapse game before but I do not remember where. There are many other games as well that I play during those rare times where I have extra time on the computer. Mostly online versions of classic games like Yahtzee and Battleship. If I remember correctly, those can be found on Pogo.

Hi Megamatt. I have been on Pogo.com. We brought the collapse game at wal mart years ago. I like yahtzee. I haven't played battleship. I like it when I don't have to download things to my computer and the games are free. Have you tried Iwon.com? It has a place where you can play poker and stuff like that but don't cost you anything to play. I like playing poker as long as the bets aren't real and don't cost money to play.

hello free man, your question is too much for me to answer. maybe you can separate them into a few discussion. So maybe i just answer your first question. Yes i play games online in my computer. i use this to entertain myself and my family. games are important for us to stay refresh from our daily activities.

Hi Ifa. Sorry I confused you but was just no way to put them into many discussions. I like to play games on my computer and if I am not on my lot that is what I am most likely doing unless I have other things to do. I think the computer is a great learning tool.

Well, I have that Super Collapse on my mobile phone and I must admit it is hell of a good game! I like 'continuous' play mode, my high score in 'continuous' is 190 000. What about your high scores?
I also have a couple of games on my PC. I like Red Alert 2 and Civilization series, both of them are strategy games.
One online site that I used to play at, when I was younger, was Miniclip. You can try it, there are many different games of different genre available. HAppy gaming!:)

I am not sure about that. Perhaps you can get free trials from there, but most of the games are playable through the Internet too.

I do play games but since I mostly do my online work here I rarely play like games for an hour or so. I would rather do photoshop and watch movies than play long games. I am still in the process of deleting stuff on my computer so it becomes faster again.

Oh we play a lot of games here. Right now, we are normally playing on Facebook because there are apps there that cost nothing! But we used to have Super Collapse here too, along with Cake Mania, Diner Dash and Bejeweled. I bought those from a membership to Real Arcade Games if I remember correctly. I think they have trial versions too. I know that Sandlot Games have 60-minute trials that you might want to checkout. :)

I love to play games on computer. My favorite game is Age of Empires, which I used to play for more that 5 hrs (if I start that on a holiday). In that time I will pause the game only for important reasons like if some of my friend came home to see me or some phone call or somebody ringing the door bell. I will do any other major work playing a game like checking emails, checking mylot or doing some shopping online. Also I used to play lot of flash games (can't list them here as the list is quite big). I do play NFS and other racing games often. My latest is gaming device is Ipod touch where I enjoy all toch games.

Age of Empires is a strategy game, very similar to commandos (hope you know about this game). When we start the game, we will have only few villagers and a house. With that we have to cultivate crops to get food, cut the trees to get wood, mine the stones and gold to get those and build archery and few other building including castle and war against the other enemies. This is game is very interesting and I user to play one game for more than a week (2 hrs) daily.

Hi again free_man! Yes, i play games on the computer, but only one which is not online, because I use my cousin's laptop and I won't install many games on it, when it is not mine. I play GTA San Andreas and I think it is a very cool game- there is action, fight, driving- it is full of adrenalin, which energize me a lot sometimes.

Hi Phoenix. It is good that you don't download anything on someone elses computer. I wouldn't like people to download things on my computer either. I haven't played GTA San Andreas but it sounds too fast paced for me but bet my husband would like to play that one. I bet it does have a lot of adrenaline and energizes you. I guess I am too old......LOL

I do play games online. Currently, I'm playing Neopets online to do some online trading to earn money. There are quite a number of RPG online such as Runescape, Maplestory. They are all free.

Hi Sandy and welcome to my lot. Haven't played football or Fifa. I was never around sports growing up so I never got into watching football on tv either. My husband isn't a sports kind of guy either. So I am not sure I would like that game. What is it like a real football game? I haven't tried roadrash either what is it like? Thanks!

I haven't played games on my computer for a very long time. Although I like playing games, but I don't have more spare time for playing the games. Besides, I know I am not a person who can control myself well. I am afraid I will be addicted to the games. So I think I will play the games when I am retired:)
I love China

There's one game that I play on my computer and it comes built in with windows vista and that is chess! The built in chess game is good and has excellent graphics. You have to love chess though in order to play it. Super Collapse sounds like a lot of fun though and I wouldn't mind trying my hand at this game. I sometimes play games on online websites that are free to play and you don't have to download them on to your computer or anything. I like the very old space invaders! This is a very old game now but I think that everyone remembers it. I also like to play pacman online and again, this is a very old game from years of old! You can have a lot of fun with online gaming but you have to search around I guess. Andrew

Hi AndrewFreyne. Now your showing your age I can remember space invaders and pac man and mario brothers ms pac man. Oh yes I do love those games too. I just got vista where is that chess game at on here? I haven't been able to find out much on this machine yet. Just figured how to get the internet up and running that is why it took me so long to respond today.

Hi Boyetski. I like to play games but the time passes by me all the time. I don't have enough time in one day to do all the things I need to do needless to say the things I have to do. So I spend as much time as I can on here and play a game or two and answer my lot post so I don't really have but an hour or two daily. I need more time.

As far as I am concerned, I seldom play games at my computer.But this is not so absolutely in my daily life. Sometimes, I will play the PC games for fun which can help me relax much.The most interesting game is called Plant war zombies, which I enjoy most.

Hi Janairah and welcome to my lot. Heck I couldn't sit in front of the computer that long. I have to get up and moving around I am old and it isn't good to just sit and do nothing. I like puzzles too. I like zelda that is an old NES game but I have it on my computer and cd so if I want to play it I can. But it is one of those games that takes forever to play. And these days I just don't have that kind of time anymore.
