Congratulations. I finished it recently too :).


I'm playing:
Loren Amazon Princess - Delightful thing I play in spare moments since it allows me to save at any time. It's a mix of visual novel and RPG. Tons of text, romances, skill trees, turn-based combat, etc. There are cliché plot twists and characters but I dig the theme a lot and author handles it in rather fitting playful manner. It also looks like a long game that is a big plus.

Braid - I bought it as a part of a HiB that I wanted for DRM-free Linux version of Psychonauts, Bastion and Limbo. While the last two weren't able to hold my attention for longer period of time, I found Braid fascinating. I didn't consider trying it (well, it's a platformer) until I watched Indie Game: The Movie. Very innovative gameplay, intriguing storytelling and fantastic soundtrack.

Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP - I discovered it same way as Braid (HiB) but I tried it the first time when I wanted to test Steam Beta for Linux. Because it didn't took long to download and it was a part of very tiny selection. Despite initial impression, I came to appreciate the visual aspect of game. I prefer to play it zoomed out because that's when it shines the most. Boss fights are engaging and challenging. It is unexpectedly funny at times and uses Twitter incarnation cleverly (not the actual Twitter). And oh, the soundtrack. I have to download it to my MP3 player.
Fortix - I was pleasantly surprised. It actually reminded me of a game I used to play on Neopets back in the day. Only took maybe an hour, but it was definitely worth a dollar.
Tropico 4 and Kerbal Space Program.

Tropico 4 is fun little SimCity type city builder except you are given a banana republic to govern and need to build your island while balancing foreing relations with US and USSR.

KSP is sandbox game where you build rockets and fly around Kerbal's solar system. Has pretty big mod community developing all kinds of mods for it.

congratulations.
Just started playing Hitman Codname 47(with PlayOnLinux) a couple days ago.
I really like this game/
Finished Gray Matter last night. Decent enough, I guess.

For a change of pace, I'm going to start RAGE tomorrow or the day after, despite the mediocre reception it got.
Just started Recettear.
Lineage II.
I yesterday got back to Baldur's Gate (playing the ToSC expansion). Still like 3% of the game left or so, maybe I'll finish it now.

I completed the ice cavern sub quest yesterday, getting that cloak from some desolate island and giving it back to some grumpy wizard.
KOTOR 1
dark side of the force, romancing Bastila
Had my 1st ever game of MOO on Monday night and I feel I have been missing out on something great for the last 20 years....

And I've yet to get past the "WTF I'm supposed to do in this game?"... Same with Master of Magic. :(

Then again, I haven't tried them for some time, but they are still sitting there, waiting.
Deus Ex. This is one of the few games that every time I play it, I thoroughly enjoy it. I think that's mostly because all the things that could be considered "bad" about the game don't bother me at all (the voice acting, for example; apparently, it is widely considered to be almost cringe-worthy, while I don't think it is that bad at all).
Out of the GOG-type games, I'm playing Shadowrun Returns and Fallout 2 (again). I'm also playing Shin Megami Tensei IV and Animal Crossing: New Leaf on the 3DS.
