Hellgate:London

:thumbsup:

:moon:
 
Was addicted to WoW, then had my first child in July. That was enough to break the addiction. In the few spare moments I've had now, I've cracked NWN2 back open. I stopped playing halfway through, just because other games caught my attention. Worked out ok, they've patches a lot of annoying bugs since it's release.

Interesting that I used to be able to blow through a 60 hr game in a week or two. Now it'll take me months....
 
Team Fortress 2... it's the only thing I've played since it game out, besides trying out the Crysis singleplayer demo (which I want to play again, on hard mode). Man I can't get enough of TF2, the game kicks ass.

I want to play more Quake Wars, Command and Conquer 3, Age of Empires III, Company of Heroes... fuck. I need a full time job as a game player.
 
Guild Wars - trying to get all the damned green hammers still...

CoH - love RTS's that I can dive into

WoW - just got the 10 day trial yesterday at the nagging of a few addicted friends

Crysis demo

Black & White 2

I just need more hours in the day to game
 
TF2. Just a blast to play with friends. 65 hours played so far.

2Fort is the worst map ever. It ALWAYS ends in a draw.

Looking for a newish non MMO RPG to play. Tried NWN2 but it wasn't nearly as good as the original. It just seems to throw you into the middle of the game without explaining anything. There's so much there, but I have no clue what half the crap does. I also tried Dungeon Siege 2, but again, its the same thing as the original with updated (barely) graphics. Coupled with an annoying control scheme (party members running around and chasing enemies, have to hold down the mouse button to keep attacking (seriously WTF? why can't I just single click the dude and have my guy keep attacking him?)) and a crappy story that I don't give a damn about, I uninstalled it after about an hour.

I'm downloading Hellgate: London to check it out right now. Any other suggestions?
 
The Witcher

It's been a while since I've been able to sink my teeth into something, and this is fitting the bill at the moment. I'll enjoy it while it lasts since after I finish it, I'll most likely be going back into my slump.

Before this was/is C&C3, but that's spotty due to the constant balance changes.
 
Call of Duty 2. I picked this up at Best Buy for $20. I think that is the way to go now. - Wait a year or two after the game is released then play at max settings and get a price discount. My 7950GT was able to handle max settings at 1680x1050 without a hiccup. I wasn't sure how this one would tax my system since there were a lot of horror stories of people's 78xx hardware not being able to keep up with it when it was released.

you need to play on different servers or get some better players.
it rarely ever ends in a draw when I play and I hop around servers, although I do have one or 2 that I like but I can't always get into them.
