I'm not doing a study on life without internet.
I'm not going on vacation without a connection.
I'm not willingly giving up internet to prove I don't have an addiction.
I'm not going to be drugged up after having my wisdom teeth pulled, going to spend two weeks in preparation for Harry Potter, or going to a convention for two weeks.
Instead, my parents thought it was a good idea to cancel our current plan because we were getting a new connection today without regarding the fact that we might not have immediate service >.<
Two weeks without internet (aside from maybe visits to friends' houses or the local library), and absolutely nothing to do. I'm specifically looking for single-player games to fill my library with (preferably free, of course) that don't have a "connect to internet" DRM *coughsteamcough*.
In any case, I'll only be able to catch suggestions up to 24 hours from now 
Any ideas/suggestions/requests for what games I should play?

Terraria, Portal 1/2, Get some emulators :D
|
Final Fantasy VII !!!!!!!!

Unless you have a good imagination better stock up on some porn while you're at it too.
Because you can.

Like i told you, boss. Nethack and Zork. You can spend all 2 weeks and not beat either without the internet to tell you how.
They're both addictive as hell, fun as hell, and they'll teach you about your gaming roots.

If you do this, stock up on lotion and kleenex as well.

No money, and I don't like DRM. I already have some emulators, but I currently only have games I actually own, which I've played about 238497 too many times XD

I highly doubt anybody in the US is even capable of doing that. Not because we're too "addicted" or something, but because electrical currents happen to be everywhere XD

So you're asking for computer games to play when your internet gets shut off.
Sounds about typically right.

Diablo 1 or 2 also the starcraft and bw campaigns fable homebound secret of mana
|
Well you could play:
FEAR 1,2 and 3
StarCraft ^^ - BroodWar, that's right, play that damn campaign.
Half Life 1, Opposing Force and Blue shift. In addition why not play Half Life 2 episode 1 and 2.
Play some Call of Duty - Campaign at least.
Civilization 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Grab a nintendo 64 emulator. Project 64 I recommend and play super smash bros and Zelda, that will keep you going for a long time.
There are many games dude, so no worries...
|
Play some dwarf fortress yo..
Make sure you read the wiki and understand everything before you start though....
Otherwise you'll have lots of FUN
Something else I did was play sc2 campaign in offline mode and do the brutal marine NUR, wasted a TON of my time lol

Semi-related but I'm so pissed off.
My ISP decided today (a national holiday in Canada) was the best day to do maintenance from 1pm to 9pm. Fucking assholes. "Hey, people are off today... let's fuck up their plans."
8 Hours was enough to make me go nuts (hopefully it doesn't go down again...been going up randomly for 10-20 minutes at a time during the day, probably for testing... it's 9pm though so hopefully it's over), so I truly sympathize with your problem.
It's one thing to not have internet when you plan it, but to have it cut off for stupid reasons is horrible. Yes I'm addicted, and I'm already preparing my computer for the next set of internet-less days (seriously, I even re-installed Unreal Tournament 3 today because I had nothing to play...). Going to download a ton of anime, movies, games and roms. Next time I won't be playing solitaire.
P.S : It went down again for a few minutes immediatly after this post. It's toying with me.

Reread all the Harry Potters in preparation for the movie. Also, go and buy the DVDs (or borrow from library) and watch all of them. Read the books again if you still have time.
|
idk if Minecraft works w/o an internet connection, if it does then do that!
the bioshock games are good, 1 > 2 imo, but 2 isnt bad.
|
Wing commander 1&2 ought to last you two weeks.
|
Get an emulator and do Kingdom Hearts.
|
2 weeks is plenty of time to finish Pokemon.
I'm pretty much done with Silver after 2 weeks at my parent's house with limited computer usage. Just have to beat Red at Mt. Silver.

I've got internet, but my PC is trashed and I've only got my old laptop which can only hardly run minesweeper, and that is pretty damn retarded. Been on it for a month now and it looks like it's gonna go on for a bit more. Actually finished Diablo2 just yesterday. lvl 63 sorc. It;s a nice time consumer.
