StingingVelvet: Deus Ex: Invisible War - Not nearly as good as the original, but not nearly the horrible piece of crap many fans will tell you it is. A solid FPS/RPG hybrid with some neat ideas and story elements.

DX2 was still a decent game. The simplified gameplay was a major facepalm, but the story did set up an interesting conflict. I think the game would have been a lot better received if the PC version wasn't such a pathetic X-Box port. The textures were lousy, the interface was gaudy and intrusive (obviously meant to be viewed on a blurry television from twenty feet away), the performance was crap, and the tiny zones and constant load screens were infuriating.
It's worth playing once (preferably with John P's high-res textures), but I think the frequent load times alone are enough to keep me from playing through it again. They really are a constant frustration.

Andy_Panthro: Finished it myself about 20 minutes ago.
Good game, although I'm slightly gutted I couldn't find all the riddles... only managed about 80% completion. I'm not one to bother going back into a game for 100% though.

I don't think you can find all of them without finishing the game first, though (you know you can go back after finishing story mode, right?). And there are quite a few tricky ones, too. I'm a completionist, so I'll try to find them all, but the game was great regardless. :-)
Finished (that I can remember):

Just finished the campaign in Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War 2. Great game overall, very fun to play.
Beyond Good and Evil. - Awesome game, one of the best ever. Almost as good as Ocarina of time.
I just completed Grand Theft Auto 4 a few days ago.
The last mission was fairly long and difficult.
I enjoyed GTA4, the only downside is that this game was really badly optimized for the PC.
Even the patches, didn't really help in performance.
Risen. Loved every minute of it (good, because it took 48 hours).
Etrian Odyssey (DS)
Silent Hill 2 (PS2)
Yakuza 2 (PS2)
Silent Hill 3 (PC)
Dragon Quest III (SNES)

I'm starting to have a feeling that I may be putting Oblivion on next year's list of games completed. I'm over 230 hours so far.

ArchmageRashak: For some reason I rarely seem to be able to actually finish my games. New games just seem to steal my attention away from them at some point before I manage to finish anything, and there is nothing that I can do to stop it. Of course I eventually go back to finish them, but that might take years.

You are not alone.. I have the same, err... "affliction".
Just finished Tales of Monkey Island ep1: Launch of the Screaming Narwhal.
It was pretty decent, the writing was witty and rather enjoyable. This seemed to cop a lot of criticism, especially with the lack of character of the supporting cast. However, I thought the characters weren't too bad.
Nice form for the first in the Tales of Monkey Island series.
Half-Life 2 (again)
PORTAL (again)
I just finished Fable 2 yesterday. Not bad overall but I'm glad I borrowed it rather than bought it new. Might pick up the game of the year version if I see it cheap enough and play it again as a bastard character
Finally completed
Gears of War 2
Splosion Man
Ben there, Dan that
Plants vs Zombies
Splosion man was suprisingly good for a random platformer.
