Games I'm playing at moment are Titan's Quest,Galactica Civilizations 2,I'm waiting for my Darkstar One game to arrive sometime today or tomorrow.

Games to look out for down the road are Gothic 3 (if you like Oblivion then this game is for you and my personal favourite),Hellgate:London,Dark Messiah of Might and Magic,Neverwinter Nights 2,UFO-Extraterrestrials.

Once they sort out the final release dates for the above games,I'll have some heavy gaming to enjoy.

🙂.
 
get good at a competitive mp game and you'll never get tired of pwning newbs. i'd also suggest joining a clan as it makes playing a lot more fun. people are still playing ut and q3 for this reason (~7yr old games).

whats wrong with halo?
I like it for the simplicity in gameplay while constant alertness is still invaluable. It's not always the game with the most complexity thats the most enjoyable.

i hear ya. I've switched over to Single Player Games. Only current Multiplayer game I still play is BF2 and the only reason why I still play it is because I play with my clansmate. If I was solo, all the buggs would have made me quit.

I played Eve Online since launch, great game, I just dont have the time for it, after I finally left that addiction, its been all single player games, shooters mainly. Fear, half-life, far cry, ghost recon.

Now, i'm looking for more content, Oblivion, Titan Quest... RPG types. I'm waiting for Team Fortress 2 and Portals. After that, BF2142 looks good, I just hope they test their game this time around.

I wish call of duty 2 had Base Assault 🙁

danny~!

Yea very looking up for this one. NFS BE was just like,, ehhh,, good graphix minus the FUGLY shadow, but ran 60vsync solid without the shadow on 1680x1050 with 6x/16xhq, so i guess i can't complain.

Hope they improve the shadows.

UPLINK UPLINK UPLINK
Yes that was a gREAT game, like I was obsessed until my comp detonated,, I DIDN"T KNOW THAT the remote bomb thing did that, i thought it kills the enemy and not the comp LOL

i'm thinking of picking up an RTS. but non so far seem to captivate me like starcraft did. WCIII was decent,, but u don't get many combination of units per race so that got old fast.

try the warhammer: dawn of war demos... there are 2 - one for DOW and one for the expansion, Winter Assault

Will do
 
Just downloaded the Company of Heroes beta a few days ago. While RTS is really not my thing I have been having a lot of fun with this. It's the first top down game I've enjoyed since the commandos series (god only knows what they were thinking when they changed to FPS). I can't really play competitively online but I have high hopes for the SP once COH is released.

The only things I see coming up that really interest me are:

2142 (eh.....we'll see, not expecting much here)
ETQW (I have high expectations here, Enemy Territory was one of my most played games)
Spore (damn do we REALLY have to wait till the latter part of 2007 for this?)
W.E.B.L.E.W.I.T (otherwise known as stalker)
Halo2 PC (yeah, still waiting I have not played the console version)

Ditto here. CS:S is good for 30 minutes of run-and-gun, which is all I'm really interested in anymore. I've lost my taste for video games (football and hockey excluded).
 
Just downloaded Darwinia.. I don't get how i'm suppose to transport the Darwinians across the mini continents when they won't go into the radar transport beam..???

Very good looking game at 1680x1050 no prob with AA AF either,, like it's very,, "Art-sy" Love those trees,, really accents the map.

sooo Metal gear solid 2 is for pc didn't know

Have you found the officer research cube yet? It lets you make darwinian officers (F3 key) which can order the rest where you please, including through radar beams.

I just beat Darwinia this morning, overall a fun game.
 
YO that broken sword 3 screen shots look really really good,, and it's by adventure company same one that made safecracker.. Is it prerendered? or is that real time
 
as far as i can tell, the scenes are rendered real time. It's a fantastic game, great story and puzzles. My only gripe is that it crashes sometimes, so it's a good idea to save often.
 
YOOO i got metal gear solid 2 now,, but How do i change the resolution to my monitor, anyone know if there is a custom resolution available?? or a loader?? or an ini hack.?
 
CS Source, but I've been a little put off ever since 1.5

Now I can't get enought of DOW.

Honestly though my favorite game is probably WARLORDS IV. Turn based strategy with very little micro-management. Now if they would just bring back the keyboard shortcuts...

its in the options/settings...the game is kinda nice as it lets you put widescreen/the max resolutions your monitor can handle.
 
the bf2142 beta is coming out soon, should be fun..... as long as they actually tried to debug it, then again, it is only beta, prob will be worse than bf2. if u are into 2d rpgs, maple story is great, but only starts to really get fun after like a month or so, u have to really be into it... but i am.
 
I've been playing a lot of old games lately, mainly Freespace 2 (SCP version), Descent 2 (D2X-XL) and a bunch of old Mac games through the Basilisk emulator. I have played D2 multiplayer games with some people on another forum regularly during the last few weeks and it's been awesome. 🙂 I want to also go through Deus Ex: Invisible War another time soon, especially since I can finally run it decently.

I think I have more than enough stuff to hold me over until the games I'm waiting for start to come out.
