Games I Like

Here is my list of games I personally like. These games I consider in some way old school. They strike a vibe for me. They me be clunky in some respects, but I enjoy some aspect of them immensely. It may be the writing, the rules, the game play, the art, or the overall tone, but usually it is an indescribable synergy of elements that work together to communicate a spirit of the type of gaming I like to do. I also own the majority of these games in my personal game library. Now, don;t be a hater and judge me :-). I have played other games, and don't find them bad per se or poorly designed. It's just that some games I find begin to bore me or wear on me over time. They just don;t have the right synergy that connects with my gaming vibe. It's a personal thing, not a wholesale judgment.
