Unreal Tournament 3
Eve Online (must have for all hard core gamers)

"Valve marketing director Doug Lombardi had stated that news on or an announcement of Episode Three may be revealed near the end of 2008"

From Wiki, start of the year. Watch this space i guess.

What a tough act to follow on eh, ep3 needs to be one of the finest games ever created. How do you even start to develop that?!

Sorted on playing time for the last couple of months

1. STALKER SoC
2. Crysis
3. Assassin's Creed
4. Fallout 3
5. Portal

Finished all of them, except STALKER SoC,which is an ongoing project but now it is loosing out against Fallout 3, while I could finish Assassin's Creed and Crysis playing STALKER on the side.

List for the coming months, sorted in anticipation

1. (Finishing) Fallout 3
2. (Finishing) STALKER SoC
3. STALKER CS
4. Mass Effect
5. Crysis: WH
6. HL ep1+ep2

Yeah yeah I know, have some catching up to do as my previous rig really was not capable of playing STALKER, Crysis, and AC in an acceptable way.

1. Navy Field
- just too addictive and reminds of the good old "Mech Commander"
2. Neverwinter Nights
- vintage D&D with great custom-content and DM client features
3. Forums & websites
- news, tomshardware, fomportal etc.
4. Youtube
- why pay for computer upgrade when you can sometimes watch other people walk through newest games
5. :ouch:
- once in a year or maybe more (hopefully less) a spyware or a virus drops by with some evil plan

I forgot to add one to the coming months lists: The Witched Enhanced Edition.

Only today I fixed a problem that I had with my steam installed copy of the game. For some reason a Language entry was missing in the registry. Adding it with a trial and error value gave me the desired result (now I can actually see the texts in the menu and in-game).

OK, right now I play:

1) RUNESCAPE
-- much harder and more serious game than WOW, can play your character anywhere there is a computer and internet. Much cheaper than WOW if you decide to pay (you can even play it completely free if you want). Therefore I switched to Runescape. Been playing it #1 for almost 3 years now. Highly recommended.

2) Civilization 2
--- old classic still rocks, different every time. Play this one forever like chess.

3) Far Cry, Far Cry 2 shoot, I love this game

4) Crysis I feel super -- great storyline and game play

5) Spore I like evolution, it's fun to do!

Lol Runescape. Its a terrible game for young children and you deserved to be thrashed publically.
@Bigmac - Good game once you get past the weird controls and the boring as hell start. Also, when you take potions and small red diamonds appear on your display dont panic like me when i thought my GPU was overheating :D


No one has mentioned any flash games yet :eek:
