I just finish A Elder Scrolls Legend: Battlespire

This game is /%"&*!%%/$ Hard. I recommand only for nostalgic hardcore gamers...

Just make the game work on vista was a nightmare. The game itself was the hell !!

Baldur's Gate... nuff said ;)

kalirion: Red Faction (1)

Fun game, but I played on Hard difficulty and it became a quick-save/load-athon. Final Boss battle was just ridiculous - had to use a glitch to bring down her shield without her firing back, and then still took multiple tries to kill her. Seems all she does is get headshots with pin-point accuracy from across the map with a minigun...
I found this game pretty good when it come out !
Wolfenstein
A very solid, polished, yet basic FPS. Well worth the fiver I spent on it. But I think I would have been disappointed had I spent a lot more. It doesn't do one damn thing new and there is a lot of borrowed ideas in there. Even from games that did a lot of borrowing themselves. Not particularly long either.
Just finished on the PC:
Splinter Cell: Conviction

So far this year, finished these PC games:
Splinter Cell: Conviction; Torchlight; Divinity 2: Ego Draconis; Batman: Arkham Asylum; Assassin's Creed II; Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening; The Saboteur; Resident Evil 5; Alpha Protocol; Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood; Mass Effect 2; Dragon Age: Origins; Borderlands: Zombie Island of Dr. Ned; Grand Theft Auto 4; Bioshock 2.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, Call of Duty: World at War, Skate 3, skate. and Red Dead Redemption.
Fallout: New Vegas (PC).

Wonder if I'll be able to finish Evil Genius. Damn, that game is nasty.
Started the year on PS3, but that broke in April and have since remarried PC gaming. I will try to remember all of the games I've beat.

Borderlands
Uncharted 2
Daxter
Ratchet and Clank (PSP one)
Silverfall
Mass Effect
Jack the Ripper
Dracula Origins
The Longest Journey (today or tomorrow will beat)
Resistance 2

I'm also about a 1/3 the way into Dragon Age, and about halfway through Icewind Dale. I'm trying my best not to buy anymore games right now until I finish a couple more but these weekly PC game sale/releases are just too tempting. I'm hoping I make it until Black Friday so I really pick up a ton of games for cheap, but I'm nearing that point where I cave in and buy Planescape (since I doubt it'll be on sale any time soon). I keep hearing so many good things about the game that I'm eager to give it a shot.
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

and I feel the same way as Scribe regarding Planescape, not much of an RPG guy but it's always sounded really intriguing
Planescape Torment

spoilers:

Played as mage. Ended up at level 29 (2M points of experience really helped) Of course it was useless then as i talked myself out of final fight. I threaten my mortality with the blade.

Ressurected my companions:
Dak'kon
Annah
Morte
Vhalior
Fall-from-Grace

Sad ending.... the thing is Nameless one is now total badass. Not sure what are the rules of Planescape about torment but he can now single handily slaughter demons and half-gods. Punishment will be long but shouldn't be THAT bad should it?

I wish there was some kind of actiony sequel about him pwning both sides in the Blood War :)
Just finished on the PC:
Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days

So far this year, finished these PC games:
Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days; Splinter Cell: Conviction; Torchlight; Divinity 2: Ego Draconis; Batman: Arkham Asylum; Assassin's Creed II; Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening; The Saboteur; Resident Evil 5; Alpha Protocol; Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood; Mass Effect 2; Dragon Age: Origins; Borderlands: Zombie Island of Dr. Ned; Grand Theft Auto 4; Bioshock 2.
Supreme Commander 2 (PC).

Dunno if it was better or worse than the first one. I thought it managed to feel more focused without losing the epic scale. Not having to micromanage your incomes as much was nice, too. I just wish Research was a bit more visible; either you put it out of your mind and ended up with 40 points to spend or you stare at it every other second. Although I guess some kind of notification would have gotten on one's nerves quite quickly. Maybe if you had been able to pick a path in the tree at a time...?

Also, Gauge was hilarious. He almost made up for the extremely compressed cookie-cutter story. And let's not forget:
"Oops."
"What do you mean, 'oops'? I don't like 'oops'!"

James Bond: Blood Stone on PS3.

If you love James Bond movies you should get this game. It is good and fun. But if you don't love the movies you can pass the game. MP is dead from the start BTW.
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II

Not a bad game, short but nothing like as short as the bullshit claims of 3 hours (I timed myself at a bit under 8 including a few fuckups and some exploring/getting lost, I think whoever did it in 3 hours not only played with a permanent force fury cheat but couldn't tell you what the story was about). Story isn't bad, better than what I expected to be honest but there were plenty of spots where it could have been improved. I picked the light side ending first and it wasn't bad, I prefer leaving the dark side ending till last because its usually far more fun

The challenges are annoying though, firstly they train you in the moves you have but you have to unlock the challenges by finishing levels in the game (so the game is saying "congratulations, now here's how you SHOULD have done it"). The most frustrating part is the way your combos get disrupted by position or enemy proximity, you just have to pull off the move rather than actually hit the enemy with it so for XXXB you can just hit that combo without an enemy near you and progress. The problem comes when the enemy is just out of reach, your character makes a 2 metre step/dash to engage the enemy which makes sense in context of the game but breaks the combo, when you're up against a ticking clock, that gets really annoying really fast


In summary, I got it for 60% of RRP and that feels about right


Well I just finished SW:TFU2 again, this time with the dark side ending, I was right, FAR more satisfying and I suspect its's the canonical one, too many open threads with the light side ending but they're all (except one) closed and cauterised by a lightsaber in the dark side ending.

Also it feels more fitting to choose the dark side since starkiller.backup was such an unlikeable selfish anger driven arsehole
