[QUOTE]Originally posted by Da_bang80: [QB] Well, Steam, as an online service, sucks big time. Half-Life 2 was pretty good. The real gem is the original Half-Life redone on the source engine. As for Oblivion, I guess I misread your original post. There's a few mods you should check out that makes the experience a little better. Particularly mods that increase the spead of the spells and arrows. They're way to slow to be effective. Let's not forget the nudie mods :p Fallout may be old as coal, but it's still one of the best PC games ever made. Fallout 2 is even better. You even get ROBOT DOGS! and Dogmeat makes a cameo appearance in one of the wasteland encounters. I can't remember if you can recruit him or not. And Tactics isn't bad once you get it figured out. It's not an easy game. Never played Galaxies, probably never will considering what they did to it. There's nothing wrong with Trespasser to speak of. Yes, no one really liked it, most likely because the control scheme was convoluted at best. And time constraints forced the developers to scrap the AI for the dinosaurs. Forcing them to be rather dumb. They still manage to suprise you from time to time. I like the game because it was innovative at the time. It had an early version of real world physics similar to Half-Life 2s source engine. It was quite satisfying pushing a car over a ledge and squashing two raptors underneath. The game had flaws, I'm not denying that. But if you take the time to learn the controls (I learned how to throw my gun straight up into the air and catch it before it hit the ground. That killed an hour alone. Pointless, but interesting.) you'll have a fun time with a game that, for it's time, was incredibly immersive. I broke out into a cold sweat a few times knowing that a pair of raptors were following me through the jungle. And I even let out an "eep!" when they snuck up and killed me and started feeding on my corpse. IMO: The game would translate really well onto thw Wii. Or another other system that has one of those motion sensor glove type dealies. [/QB][/QUOTE]
