Okay, I'm atm downloading Kingpin, Unreal Tournament 2004, Duke Nukem 3D, and have taken an interest in Gorky17 and Arx Fatalis. I have around 20Bucks to spend (I can go over) and want to know...which of these games are good? I might buy 3 out of 5 if persuaded.

How exactly are you downloading them at the moment, if you haven't actually bought them yet?

UT2004 is fun and worth it (I think I've purchased 2 versions already, and thinking about getting the GOG one as well), Duke3D I'd skip unless you're going for nostalgia (But bringing back those old memories was a blast). Arx Fatalis is good if you like that style of game. Don't know about Kingpin or Gorky, sorry.

Gorky had a bug that made the game run poorly or not at all. I'm not sure if they fixed that or released a workaround for it.

Duke3D is awesome. Kingpin not so much it is kind of wonky.
Posted August 13, 2009
It can be a game recommendation other than these ones, as long as it has HIGH replay value/mods/ultra violent and it isn't Fallout or any Space game. How good is Arx Fatalis?
Posted August 13, 2009
All good titles, but I'd vote Arx and UT2K4, for sure -- Arx is a great and innovative first person RPG and spiritual entry in the Ultima series..UT is arguably the best online shooter Epic's ever done (as is my understanding). :)
Gorky maybe -- try the demo to decide. As mentioned, there is a rather pesky problem with it. Can't comment on Kingpin but it does seem like a pretty good game, albeit with major flaws.

Yeah, I just read the Arx Fatalis review on gamespot, and it sounds amazing. demo first as always. =) AS for UT2004, I need to play with my mouse BEFORE I buy, because it runs perfectly yet aiming is a bitch with a mousepad.

What's wrong with Kingpin? I don't remember any problems with the controls.
