I am so glad that I play Guild Wars. I get very little lag and that is in mostly in one specific city.

GW stores *tons* of stuff on your hard drive

my GW is like 1.5GB

Largest game ever? Has to be Act of War: Direct Action. A whopping 6gb of HD space on install.

Atari thought it was a good idea to include a lot of cutscenes in there. Well, the freakin' geniuses forgot to subtitle the lot!

I miss the games that had cutscenes. I like the live action. One of the things I loved about Command and Conquer untill the bastards at EA bought them out and screwed it up.

Halflife 2 is currently taking up 6.2GB on my hard disk

Heh, talk about taking space... back in the days, my Quake I directory was well over 1,5GB. On my 4GB HD

That's what a 3-computer home network and a liking to mods can do to you.

For the same relative size, some game should now take 150GB on my HD

That's when you take in account all the extra levels you probably have downloaded as well as the saves. Those saves are big.

I haven't played Act of War a lot, mainly because I'm disillusioned with the lack of subtitling on Atari games and because I'm revising for exams.

I did email Atari about the lack of subtitling... a week or two ago. They haven't responded, the... *mutters incoherently*

I don't play the SOE run SWG anymore, can't stand the NGE.

I have been on the alpha version of SWGEMU recently.

I downloaded the trial version yesterday, and I've had some fun with the game so far.

Personally though Galaxies was a dissapointment but my expectations were too high i suppose.
Farthest i got in my imperial carreer there was a fighter pilot in the Endor system.
Wasted all my money on an aggressor type fighter cassis and realized it manuverred like a bloated tank to my dismay. Shouldve tried to get an ETA Interceptor (jedi starfighter from Return of Sith).

I'll get the syringes, needle-nosed pliers, gag, and hot and cold water buckets.
Missing anything?

Bloody The entire land game was laggy as Frozen molasis.
Geez it was so laggy I spent my entire game time there avoiding planets like the plague and focused on my imperial pilot carreer. Only landed when it was nessary to get some extra cash and buy stuff..(plus get new missions)
