Been playing Dune 1, and Baldur's Gate 2 ^^ However I ordered Planescape: Torment for $2.60 off amazon, so im just playing dune until I get it in the mail. (Which'll probabally be wednesday-thursday, considereing today is easter). But it's shipping as a duel-jewel with another game, Shadowgate...never heard of it. Is that any good? o.O (but ooh I can't wait to play Torment, I used to have it, got to Pharod and the disc broke....you know how it is, those mysterious cracks in the center of the disc with 1 crack that manages to crack a little too far.)

well... my most favourite game at the moment is called "Abandonia online".

It is a text-based website simulation featuring the adding and editing of reviews and news, providing of new abandongames and a forum, you can post and spam into with a steadily growing amount of other players answering your questions and so on...
To keep the game interesting there is some strange AI, called "Admins", which likes to interfere with the players actions and to change the game's parameters randomly.

It is entirely controlled by mouse and keyboard, with left-click to select links and right click for the copy and paste functions.

The grafics are ok for the time it was released and the sound is not existing. Nevertheless I rate this game with a straight 5, as you get into it very fast and may start to hang out with it for the whole day.

So take a look at www.abandonia.com, register at the forums and try to get your post-count up as fast as possible

I just finished KOTOR2 yesterday. Nice storyline up to a certain point, then it went gradually downhill, concluding in the extremely disappointing ending. :/

Very true. When I started playing the game and it had all these cinematic events (like with the turrets at the start when you just reach the ebonhawk again) I thought the entire game would be like that... but after a while you can see they started rushing it (first half was really slow and deep while the second half was very very fast and disappointing)
For example you can see they left out some big quests and scenes, like the destruction of the HK droid factory and using the Mandalorian Battle Droid to enter the city (at first it was planned that the player actually uses it to destroy the turrets in the city while he's flying to the surface... but they scraped that too)


Anyway,
I'm now playing Act of War, Republic Commando and The Black Mirror.

i only play The Black Mirror sporadically because, while I do think its an entertaining and above all dark game, the acting is painstakingly slow and weak.

Act of War is good, its what C&C generals should have been, and republic commando is quite fun too (except for the sometimes annoying AI of the teammates)

I've been trying to get into Star Ocean for the snes, with translation patch and all, but it just doesn't seem to grow on me like other Final Fantasy games, and other rpg's that I've played.
