I wonder how are you able to finish ALL those games I think ive made it through 25% of HL2 . and DOOM 3 is still lying pretty in its case and so is cronicals of the riddick. Anyway the games that I am looking forward to are: 1 Half Life 2 : Aftermath 2 Serious Sam 2 Report this as offensive post Well, you're partially on target. I don't have the enthusiasm to play through a game that I don't really like. And these days it's becoming more difficult because of work pressures. However, I usually have marathon sessions on weekends . Last weekend, I played through and completed Dawn of War in 1.5 days. I would have completed it faster if I knew that the game did not require so much strategy + thought as I attempted in the first few missions. Of the list, half would probably turn out to be disappointments and therefore I will be spending a couple of hours and leave them.

I played Settlers III a while back and was disappointed. Would like to give another try since generally I like this type of games.

Look at me, i'm still stucj with CS:Source and HL2, though ive finished HL2 but I am just trying different places of the game, just for fun. Psycannon, or the super gravity gun as I like to call it is simply awsome, the best weapon ever I must say. Finally we have soemthing other than the rocket launchers and rail guns. Something really innovative. And death matches with the gravity guns are just soo much fun. You guys have to experience it at least once. What I've seen here is, most people are not into the multiplayer arena because of the kind of net connection or the kind of the copy of the game. Rs 1600 for an awsome game isnt too bad. Though you can get about 16 games for that money from the obvious places. But, most of the time they arent worth it. I just cant get over these games. I am still hooked to Halo online, BF2 online, BF 1942 online and HL2+CS:Source online. Heck I still play QuakeIII online. I am just not prepared to start another game. I dont know how do you guys manage starting the next game. Or, I guess I'm the crazy one who is just too hooked on to Online gameplay.

Report this as offensive post Well, some games are meant to be played over and over again. As I have previously mentioned, Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri (Planetary Pack) is on my hard drive since 1999 and through many system upgrades. But in general I like to come back to a game after every few months or so. Regarding paying for a game, it has to be available first . Many of my games are paid for. But one of my recurrent problems are: most of the games I want to play are simply not available here (not even 100 buck copies). For example, I have not been able to find a copy of 'Planescape: Torment' in shops and I have been looking since 2000 ! Ditto for many other such titles. It seems anything other than action or sports (racing included) takes a long time (or never) coming to India. The major problem with playing multiplayer is the bandwidth. I currently have a Sify Broadband 256 kbps unlimited account. The actual speed is around 30 kBps (notice the difference in 'b' here ). This speed is simply not qualified for online gaming. I have been meaning to go for a BSNL 512 kbps line, but I don't find the time (or I am too lazy) ....

I happily spend time alone next to the screen rather than listen to mindless gossip of elders or immatures overtures of friends talking about girls or clothes,with lines punctuated often with abuses to make themselves look cool. Some of my standouts are: No One Lives Forever 1&2 (My first and possibly the best gaming experience) Age of Empires (RTS at its best) Medieval: Total War (Complex, Rewarding,Magnificent) Far Cry (Except the Trigens, what is not to like?) Call of Duty Series (Frenetic, realistic and awe-inspiring) Caesar 3 (Fun to play) Neverwinter Nights Series (What an amazing RPG. Truly a treat) And when it comes to XBox, it's Ninja Gaiden. This game, in my opinion, is the finest of all. Nothing comes close to it in terms of sheer perfection of presentation and combat. Early anticipating and what to play: F.E.A.R AOE 3 Rome: Total War Ninja Gaiden Black Splinter Cell : Chaos Theory Regards.....

BF 1942 - Road to Rome has been labled the most realistic WWII era era game with the right kind of physics and weapons. But, I have been looking for the legit version since ages. Then there is seacret weapons and many other extensions which dont have the legit vesions available here and without the legit version, you can never play online.
