for number one most life like game i'll call a draw between HL2 and AOE3. for number 3 i'm between D3 and Far cry(They both seem to have a cartoonish type feel to me)

Myst:Revelation is by far the most graphically pleasing "game" ever created. Do a search for a review, but it's not even a close call.

I agree Myst is rather impressive but unfortunately it is not real-time. If it were then hands down this would be the winner. I don't think you can get much better than reality 🙂.

RE4 = real-time. And drop-dead gorgeous (er, well, something like that; maybe 'rise-from-the-dead disgusting' is more lik eit).

Pwned. 😛

AGE OF WONDERS SHADOW MAGIC

The sequel to the mother of the genre will beat AOW:SW like an angry husband with an aluminum bat with a nail in it walking in on his wife cheating.

Couple old school TBS fans in here :thumbsup: ...played MoM when I was like 20 on 386 (crash master delux)😛
 
I dunno about current or upcoming games, but the game that impressed me the most at the time was Serious Sam. The models where decent but the vistas, sun flares, and general architecture was VERY cool. I remember impressing my friends with the game and still have a bunch of screen shots that somehow got saved regradless of numerous rebuilds, reinstalls, and HDD changes.

This is correct; RE4 is the first RE game to be fully rendered in real-time. 😛

I quick count shows that several with good taste voted for farcry, so it wins. :laugh:

Here's another vote for Far Cry (don't know about me having good taste though 🙂 )
 
I allready mentioned 2 games (best for its time: castle wolfenstein, and best all around ever: FarCry), but I want to add one more, as "best ground braking" and that would have to be Duke nukem 3D.
 
yeh i started playing farcry again the other day ( hadnt played it since i got my new pc in november ) - previously i was using a geforce2 ultra, and i thought it looked OK, but i could not see what all the fuss was about heh, with this X800XT PE.. IT IS FANTASTICLY beautiful, and extremely fun!!! i was playing from 7 till 9.30 tonight (which is a lot for me on single player games, they usually only hold me for about 30mins lol) and i plan to complete this game (one of the only game i will have ever completed on the pc 😛 ) Indeed, this game has the OMFG GORGEOUS factor imho 🙂
