Gaming Topic?

[yourlittlesecret]

The thread on Hay Day has been very popular. Who knew how many of us wasted so much time on were interested in games. It's in chat though so I wondered whether you had thought of a games topic?

[caeleth84]

Yes please

[BertieBotts]

Gog.com has a lot of the old DOS games and they come with an emulator bundled in so they work even on Windows 7+ :)

[Galactus]

I very much want this!!

@Jux

Rowan, could you move the Hay Day thread to somewhere safer until the games topic is set up (if it is?). If you do we shall ply you with gin.....

Ping us a link or report and we shall gladly do so. Gin can be sent to the usual address

@yourlittlesecret

RowanMumsnet How far down tech's list might this be?
The Hayday thread is nearly full, and is in chat so will disappear along with lots of useful cheats tips.

Not sure what the to-do list is looking like these days - will regroup and come back to you after the bank hol

[Jux]

KateS, I have sent samples of various delectable gins to the usual address.

Great idea, I love casual games like Hay Day & Tribez and have recently discovered minecraft. There's been a few threads recently that have been really handy for minecraft mods & it would be great to have them all in one place for easy reference.

Do we have one yet?

[KateSMumsnet]

Hello folks,

We haven't forgotten you! We're still musing on the best place to put the next topic and how to organise it - but we'll get back to you when we have more info.

[HayDayQueen]

Thank you!!!! For now we're overtaking the Chat section. Bit sad that we'll lose the threads there though.

[DrFunkesFamilyBandSolution]

Missed this but adding another hellz yeah!

[ThisFenceIsComfy]

I missed this too but I'm definitely interested!

[RowanMumsnet]

Well this is embarrassing - we hadn't really clocked that we already had this

[ThisFenceIsComfy]

Video games is ok but Gaming would cover all nerdy bases such as role-playing tabletops. Maybe a rename of that topic?

[LadyNexus]

Yes please, add Wildstar in there too

[RowanMumsnet]

OK - so if we renamed it 'gaming' and put it under Fun and Games, that would work?

[SmashleyHop]

Defo- I am the gaming queen in this house. Put DH and DS to shame.

[Jux]

So am I, SmashleyHop. DH spurns them and pretends he has no interest having conveniently forgotten that he used to be glued to Annoid 24/7; dd hates technology except for the occasional bout of MarioKart.

I had no idea there was a video games topic.

[ThisFenceIsComfy]

Yes great thank you!

[SmashleyHop]

That's funny Jux- Mine just gets really angry and begs me to complete what ever it is he's stuck on. DS and I are currently in an epic MarioKart 8 battle.

[Jux]

I am rubbish at MarioKart. I fall off and die horribly all the time,mostly the races finish long before I've got round the first lap . DD makes me play whenever she has friends round, just so they can all laugh at me!
