You know - kinda like Tactics or the Front Mission series. I need something to distract me from doing work all the time, but something I can leave running and not have to actively participate in. FFT and FM4 have worked well since they just kinda wait for me to do stuff. I suppose FFX works in that respect as well, but I still have to run around a world map and hit random battles. So, suggestions? I'm drawing blanks, since traditionally I like games that are very involving.

Advance Wars. Seriously, it's the greatest turn-based game created by humanity. Everything that isn't Advance Wars-orientated is just rubbish by comparison.

I've heard Disgaea and La Pucelle are pretty good.

Still there by the select button, except now it tends to bring up your inventory.

Fire Emblem, it's also great cause you can open up the game, do two moves, then turn it off without saving, it autosaves after every command you input so even if you just turn it off randoml, it will be saved to that point in the battle, it's really handy!

Disgaea, La Pucelle, Phantom Brave, and more than likely Makai Kingdom are all good. If you haven't played Xenogears yet, buy it already you bloody infidel!

You can borrow it after you finish Front Mission 4. ;]

Front Mission 3 is worth playing too, you can borrow that as well.

You will play Civ.

Give in to your anger...guh. I mean temptation. Give in to the temptation.

Civilization is a great series. Also, Master of Orion 2.
