    I'm so bored....

    I broke my collarbone on thursday and as a result i wont be able to drum, ski, bike or even game properly for at least 6 weeks or so. So i'm looking for some games that i can play with only the one hand (right), something like time crisis maybe, but for pc. Anything to get my mind away from the fact that i'm pretty much housebound

    cheers,

    Re: I'm so bored....

    So you're looking for some one-handed action....

    What about RTS titles?
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    0iD: Plus weeing in it every now & again does it good
    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    Buy a PS3. You only need one hand to shake your fist in rage at the vast sticker price, lack of quality software, and raw deal everyone in Europe gets.

    Re: I'm so bored....

    I broke my collarbone coming off a mountain bike at considerable speed, so I know what you are going through mate. Luckily I broke it so badly they put a metal plate on it - still aches 3 years afterwards

    I found reading was the best remedy I'm afrauid, didn't play on the Xbox or PC for the entire time I was incapacitated, just found sitting up made me feel so ill.

    Wish you all the best mate, oh, and out of interest, how did you do it?
