Heavenly Sword - People who give this game a low score are morons.

Great game! Haven't playe the expansion though, didn't think it was worth it.

I'm currently working my way through the Neverwinter Nights 2 official campaign. It's a fantastic story.

I finished Half-Life 2: Episode 2 earlier tonight. Brilliant ending! Well, penultimate chapter. The last one ended on too much of a cliffhanger.

Now where's Episode 3? Valve promised it for December 2007!!

Divine Divinity

It's an old game (2002) that I bought cheap years ago and then never even tried, I was bored the other night and loaded it up and it's actually a really nice little game (apart from a silly title, wouldn't all divinity be divine?). I played the first diablo a bit but not the sequel and I'm guessing this game is alot like it but with a bit of Baldurs Gate roleplaying thrown in.

It's got the usual main storyline surrounded by copious amounts of minor quests that you do whenever but one of the things I'm really enjoying is that it doesn't feel like a dungeon crawler, most of the time your on one large map and once you get used to the interface the game moves along nice and quickly, even the dungeons so far have been fairly open and light on for traps so you do alot more of running into a horde of orcs magic blazing as opposed to inching along a hallway, trying to spot the next thing trying to take your head off.

The skills are much more important than starting classes so you can start quickly and build your character how ever you want and there's even a nice dose of humour mixed in. Nothing ground breakingly original but well worth a few hours if you see it in a bargain bin. The only downside is it looks like you really have to play this game as good or nuetral as there's really no scope to play it as an out and out baddie.

I have a hard time finding time to play games these days. I don't even own a console! I would probably have a Wii by now if I could afford it though.

Last year I did buy a few PC games, some of which I haven't even played yet:

Silent Hunter III
GTA IV
Sid Meier's Pirates
Galactic Civilization II
Space Rangers II
Freedom Force II
Civilization IV
Dreamfall II
Call of Cthulhu

But more often than any of those I play classic coin-ops and NES games at http://www.retrouprising.com

I'm slowly making my way through Psychonauts. It's very imaginative. Bit bright on the colors, but then our television is old and we've got the saturation turned way up. I like that you can run around the camp at will, and see the various activities happening simultaneously. Better than the linear trip through one world after another.

Football Manager 2008.

Im trying to conquer Seria A with my loved AS Roma.

Fricking Inter has bought the hole world and is in my way !

Apart from the ending

Mask of the Betrayer has a fun story too, although I found it easy towards the end.

[devilsgrin]

i agree the ending on NWN2 was a bit of a let down. But Mask of Betrayer certainly makes up for it!

ATM i'm playing through KOTOR 2 again and The Witcher on the PC, and
Def Jam Icon and Assassins Creed on the PS3

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, PS3. Ordered it on Wednesday, and it came yesterday.

So far I'm on the fourth chapter, about fifteen minutes after the end of the demo (just having seen the other parachute, for those who have played the game). The gun fights are great fun, I'm slowly getting used to vaulting cover and [] /\ []'ing people, the scenery is absolutely breathtaking (there was one point where I just stopped and stared - climbing the cliff-face behind the waterfall to allow me to drop down onto the... surprising discovery), and the graphics are absolutely top notch - amongst the best I've ever seen in a game. They're even better than they were in the demo.

Currently playing Enemy Territoy: Quake Wars and World in Conflict (kinda stuck on the campaign)

Replaying Final Fantasy XII - trying to get everything this time.
