Alter Ego
 
http://www.theblackforge.net/

an old web version of a much older (fun) pc game, that i am too lazy to describe but will instead quote underdogs

You play your own alter ego in this game, going through life stages while making decisions that impact several characteristics, such as calmness, trustworthiness, etc., that in turn affect the number of choices you have in future situation. You might learn a surprising thing or two about yourself while playing this life simulation. Overall, an outstanding game in every respect, and much more realistic than Maxis' recent blockbuster The Sims years later. Two thumbs up!

childhood is treacherous guys be careful not to get kidnapped :(

"Your mom takes the game for what it is: A perfectly harmless expression of curiosity. Making a fuss over this kind of behavior often sets up a "forbidden fruit" fantasy that may contribute to sexual misbehavior in adolescence. Your mom read this in a woman's magazine."

This is after I tried playing Doctor with Cindy. :(

And I totally almost got kidnapped but then I remembered the liscense plate number and got him sent to jail :x

I remember playing this a while ago. First, I got kidnapped because I walked insted of ran away from the car, where I died after being raped. When I replayed, I became really rich and offered this girl the most expensive ring possible and got the most expensive wedding on top of it, only to be left standing at the altar. Old age was scary because of all the health risks you have to go through, and I didn't make it past the baseball game :(

It gets really depressing after a while because you always die at the end :(

executioneer Sep 28th, 2006 02:33 PM

like half the time i die in old age because i forget that joining an oldsies baseball league can be hazardours to your health :x

but to be honest it seems like a good way to go idk

and much like the sims, sometimes when i get bored i have my alter guy do WRONG THINGS that i think will get him killed on purpose :lol

Chojin Sep 28th, 2006 05:14 PM

uh, i told the dude that i couldn't help him find my friend, and somehow that made me leap into his arms and get murdered ;<

Cindy seems to be full of good ideas, so why not go with it? She requests that you remove your clothes and lie down on the operating table.
You take off your clothes and Cindy gives you a thorough examination. You think you might be doing something wrong but it is great fun. When it is your turn to be Doctor...
Cindy takes off her clothes and you compare the similarities and the differences in your respective anatomies. She definitely has a major part missing. You suspect that she broke it off by accident one day.


Alright! Kindergarten Porn

1. It's not porn.

2. Why are you celebrating?

Juttin Sep 28th, 2006 10:57 PM

:rolleyes I know, man.

I got to middle-age before I stopped playing until tomorrow.
My guy is either a big pimp, or just a general man-whore,
as I seem to get hit on/ sexed every episode of my life. :/

Grislygus Sep 29th, 2006 09:52 AM

I can't seem to get my guy hitched. All of the "trustworthy" girls have done run off.

Esuohlim Sep 29th, 2006 11:21 AM

I died at old age right away because I wanted to see what "sunset" meant. >:

I had never married and I kept my job as a ticket booth guy at the movies the entire time. :loo

The two of you make love for hours and fall asleep in each other's arms. The next day you are awakened by the usual smell of coffee, and for a moment wonder where you are. A flood of experiences from yesterday invades your consciousness. You look for Cathy, but she has evidently left the house. There is a note by the coffee pot.

It reads, "To my Silver Tiger: Thanks for a great night! I'd really love to do it again sometime. I've got a heavy date tonight, so if you could be out by about noontime, I could straighten the place up a bit. Keep in touch!"


Seriously, I'm some kind of pimp.

Juttin Sep 29th, 2006 11:35 PM

After fucking my way through old age, I'm trying an evil,
self-destructive path.

Update: Your fascination with the thought of tempting fate with your own life causes you to misjudge the level of alcohol or drugs you take in. You are too charged up to feel the effects of the substance, so you take too much. You are found dead of liver failure and blood poisoning the day after you make the gesture. Your game is over.

You have died.

I took the Teenage, Emo, Chris Farley way out :)

Doing absolutely nothing: The scream of the tires skidding across the highway is interrupted by a resounding explosion and the sounds of shattering glass. As you hit the concrete overpass, the car explodes and burns. You are burned to death. This game is over.

You have died.
