Shit, did not think of console games!!

I had a PS2, so yes Gran Turismo 1 & 2 were played a lot!! Also loved an old game called G-Police... flying space helicopters on Mars, hunting criminals... ace!!

Farcry is a great game, even now, definately worth a blast. I believe you can now even download an ad supported version!! If your hardware is from the last two to three years it should eat Farcry alive, and it still looks good graphically even today.

Bioshock, yes I love it, but gave up half way through because my PC struggled. I have put it on hold for a playthrough in all its glory post upgrade :cyclopsani:

Never played Dues Ex!! Got into PC gaming way after that.. used to be a console guy.

Edit : Farcry, check this mod out

http://tds.platinumgold.de/

I have not been able to find my old Farcry disk, I think my dad may have it!! So, I'm considering getting the ad supported version to try this mod out.

Edit 2 : The free ad-supported Farcry does not work outside of the US.

Glad I discovered that before downloading 3Gb!! Well lets hope Pops still has my disc.

I had damaged my Far Cry disc (I generally look after my discs very well, but it was an accident) so I bought on eon ebay for 5 pounds, brand new. :)

I strongly recommend that you should play Deus Ex. It's brilliant, and it's timeless. It still has very good graphics, pleasant to the eye. Moody, murky atmosphere, sharp (not cheesy) and memorable dialog, also offer to choose the end by assessing the arguments that are put to you, deep arguments. Critical thing is that none is completely wrong, and none is completely right, either. That's the conundrum in which one has to find the most relevant answer. Relevant to what? Well, that's the question. Possibly, relevant to one's own position, standing in life.

Very good action, skill and power, etc builds... always chosen number 1 game of all times by those who have weight in this industry.

===
Far Cry mod: it's German, no word spoken in German on this side of the screen :) Well, other than those Guten Morgen, Danke Schon (spelling?) :). I guess it won't play with English subtitles or something?

That FarCry mod looks multiplayer ;)

Yes, Deus Ex is a brilliant game, what a shame that the sequel turned out to be such a disappointment....

I agree. It had very big shoes to fill after the Deux Ex, though.
It had that distinctive feeling that as if it was made just for the sake of making a sequel, without thinking thoroughly; and like all sequels done in this way, it unfortunately failed.

Yep, that mod is German, but many of the youtube videos include English captions... and if I remember rightly my studies of German were made pointless by the fact most of them speak better English than we do!!

Anyway, it looks worth a try, some of the visuals look sweet, even Stalker in atmosphere in places!!

It seems to have multiplayer and a singleplayer campaign.

Tip for anyone considering it, the full mod was on the coverdisc of PCgamer, the current issue that reviews Farcry 2. No need to download.

I'll hope my old man has the disc still, he loves Farcry, but has become an online poker addict lately!!

Edit: Invisible War - I installed it off my bro's copy, uninstalled it after 30 minutes. I don't pirate games, but have to admit, me and my two brothers, ahem, "share" ;)

So, no possibility of playing it if I don't speak German, which I don't? :)
I wouldn't care if they shout around in German, we play Russian game/mods, but I'd guess that I'd need to understand the mission objective and such?

edit:

Invisible War? Well, it was not even in the same league with Deus Ex, I nevertheless managed to finish it a few times.

Favorites:

System Shock 2
Planescape: Torment
Gothic
Gothic II (plus Night of The Raven)
Drakan: Order of The Flame
Giants: Citizen Kabuto
Evil Islands
Operation Flashpoint (plus trillions of mods)
rFactor
GT Legends

Deus Ex and the Penumbra games tie for 11th

Didn't like:

Pirates of the Caribbean (interface was an utter disaster)
And probably 20 other games that I never finished - though I don't think I've ever 'hated' any particular game...eh, maybe Sniper Elite - but purely because the near-perfect ballistics were ruined by the crappy game surrounding it.

Oh I have so many, in order of popping into memory (I am incapable of making top 5 or 10, even a top 20 I have been gaming far to long for that).

Top have to be:
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. SoC
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky
F.E.A.R. (even Perseus Mandate, looking forward to Origin)
Call of Duty (all but 3)
Deus Ex
Crysis and Crysis: Warhead
Morrowwind, Oblivion
Harvester (extremely violent 2D point and click adventure, picked off the shelves just as they came to ban it)
Blood and Blood2
Duke3d
Black & White (even 2 I guess, EVIL ROCKS)
The Witcher
No One Lives Forever 1 and 2 (hoping and praying for 3 someday)
Aliens vs Predator 1 and 2 + add ons (Prefer two cause it actually had a story)
Shadow Warrior ("You wanna wash Wang? Or Watch Wang wash wang")
Serious Sam
Rune (the viking game from Human Head)
Requiem: Avenging Angel (first game with bullet time, before there was a Matrix)
All Battlefield games
BioShock
Dead Space
Tie Fighter
X-Wing
X-Wing Alliance
Left 4 Dead
Dark Castle (old C64 game)
Ghostbusters (old C64 game) Here is the remake from Retro Remakes

http://www.spawnpoint.com/games/profile ... tro_Remake

Terminator 2099
Anyway I could go on and on I will forgo the Atari and Coleco era for the sake of space. lol

Games I hate, the list is short.
Far Cry 2 for dieing of incurable consolitis
Doom 3 for repeating the same scares over and over and sucking bad
Far Cry for every level after the Doom 3 ripoff Trigen show up
Kind of hated Mass Effect as well... Got bored fast
Terminator Rampage for the key stuck in the room with no doors (**** you Bethesda for never fixing it)

*Vic smacks self upside the head*

Can't believe I neglected those 2 games - Don't know how I'd fit them into my top ten though so you're right, it's very hard to create a list of only your ten favorite games. I am happy to be able to say that System Shock 2 is without doubt my number 1 though - thanks due in part to the many fantastic mods (i.e. everything from Christine) that have been and are still being created for it.
