Betrayal at Krondor-I don't know why I have these games or how I got them
Betrayal in Antara-I don't know why I have these games or how I got them Vampire the Masquerade-Redemption-boring
+Return to krondor-Will when I get around to it
Neverwinter night-Buggy, crashes at startup of almost every pc computer I own
+Planescape Torment-Will when I get around to it.
Gothic 1 and 2-I don't know how I have these games
+Icewind dale1, 2-I really like IWD 1, I played up to the beginning, but had to get new pc. Iwd 2 I didn't like so prally not.
Fallout 1, 2, tactics-I don't like the fallout series.
Jagged Alliance 1 and 2-The 1st one sucks as the graphics are terrible. The 2nd is pretty cool, will likely complete when I get around to it.
Inquisitor-Awful, the only way I will go back to it, is if I can make a ranged character that doesn't die every time I start combat like my tank that failed.
Temple of Elemental Evil/Knights of the Chalice-I see no reason to play these games, Avernum has everything and more.

I just finished far cry. Shooters aren't really my thing (I hadn't played any since Doom) but I really enjoyed it. Also Broken Sword is a pretty easy and enjoyable adventure game if that's your thing.
Thanks for the tips. I stopped playing games in the mid 90s and only recently started again so I have a different definition of modern from most people (anything after 1997 basically) and "bad" graphics or UI is what I am used to so that doesn't really bother me :).
My current strategy is that I have an RPG, a strategy an action-y game, a casual game and an adventure game on the go and I switch between them as I see fit. I plan to play the older games in a series first (recently finished Baldur's Gate, sometime I will do BG2, then Ice Wind Dale 1 and 2).

all my games. all 1 billion of them.
but the one that bothers me the most, is skyrim and dragons dogma, becuase i paid full price for one and nearly full price for the other. i should play at least 15 hours in each to get my moneys worth.
the way i look at it is this, a movie ticket if you get it at the right time of day and not 3D, is 6 bucks in the part of california i live in. thats about 1.5 hours of entertainment. so for every 6 bucks you spend, you should get at least 1.5 hours out of a game. any less, and you might as well just spend your money on something more worthy.
ultima 4 is one of the few games i got my moneys worth out of. ...something of a joke there, it was free. none the less, i play it a lot more then all my other games!!
