I finished SpecOps: The Line yesterday on the "Suicide Mission" difficulty.

As a story telling device, it was quite nice (I completed four different endings, which I presume are all the endings). Nice controversial stuff, I can also understand why the game is banned in some Arabic countries (IIRC), even though the game does not glorify atrocities etc.

As a game, it definitely lacked depth. A very ultralinear corridor shooter with shooting gallery levels. At the same time though, for someone watching you play it may look quite interesting and even realistic shooter with all that hiding behind barriers and such, even though I am unsure how realistic it is that you can see the enemies behind the barriers without even looking there (you just can't shoot at them yet)...

I'd give it maybe 7.5/10. Not sure if I want to play it again with the hardest Fubar-difficulty. I would have wished it had unlocked the hardest difficulty already in the beginning so I could have played with it the first time already, even though "Suicide Mission" was admittedly quite hard at places, like the level at the end with two machine gun nests.

I'd really like to concentrate on some RPG or RTS next, but then I still have Baldur's Gate and Rise of Nations Gold unfinished (still stuck in the very first mission in RoN Gold, damn time limit killing all the fun...).

I've finally got Wizards and Warriors working on Win5 64 so trying to play that, problem is that Morrowind GOTY came into my sticky mitts yesterday and after installing the Overhaul mod I'm torn between which to play
None Right at the moment Because I'm right here!

Replying here is Seriously Cutting into my gaming time!

I play metal gear solid rise on ps 3 and i play wizardy 6 wich i love very much i never played wizardry games before.
This is it, Skyrim installed!
Awww shit, now I got an urge to replay Half-life 1 + Opposing Forces + Blueshift (I think I've played HL through like 5 times before (years ago), and OF + BS maybe 2-3 times). My original plan was just to replay Half-life 2, before playing Episodes 1-2 for the first time.

I really should rather pick something I haven't played before (or play those which are still unfinished), but what can you do...

Odd thing though, for some reason in my Steam account "Half-life" has the newer better looking character models, while "Half-life Source" has the old blocky ones. Was it always like this, ie. HL Source looks worse than the original HL with enhanced characters? Is HL Source just with some physics sh*t from Source engine, but the models are the same old ones?

For some reason I totally lost interest a couple months ago to the "Black Mesa" remake. The graphics in it are better, but lacking the Xen levels, and that they changed the difficulty level of the game from the original, killed it for me. I rather play the untouched original.

i have been playing Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic, i am really enjoying it so far.
Unepic, Unmechanical and Limbo.
Still on Fallout New Vegas with mods and some Rising Storm Lite matches.
Am Playing Blood1 and Divinity 2.

I'm trying to work on my back catalog... but I'm very tempted to hit Blood 2 again once I finish the first. This is my first play-through of the first one, but I've finished the 2nd a few times. As usual, I prefer the one I played first (2), so the struggle begins... ;)

I'm also about to startup the Critter Cronicles for tBoUT, as the first game was very, VERY good.
The Walking Dead

Just finished Episode 3. It's been mostly good so far, even though Episode 3 was a little uneven. An overly hasty first half meets a better paced second half, I guess. >_> Well, let's see what the last 2 episodes have got.
Finally started Reckoning... it's alright. Feel like I need to switch to an Xbox pad though, the mouse control feels weird because of how close the character is to camera.
Dark Souls: Prepare To Die Edition (PC).
Man that cheap Call of Juarez game "Gunslinger" is freaking great if you like linear shooters.
Heroes of Might and Magic III
