Now then....

Baldurs Gate 2 anyone ? Just wondered if anyone else ever indulged in any of the Black Isle titles (see...... its got the word "black" in it!) Baldurs gate, Icewid Dale, Neverwinter Nights etc....

or are you all too cool for that ?

I've been playing Need For Speed: Underground of late, before that it was Prince Of Persia: Sands Of Time and Unreal Tournament 2003.

For me games must be as mentally undemanding as possible. I just want to run around an blast off a few heads or nitros.

Championship Manager.

Irrespective of the version.

Any game where hard work and application can see Darlington in the Champions League (without cheating and setting up a dud manager at some rich club to sign all your talentless reserve players for huge sums) is sure to end your social life for months at a time.

Luckily it's yet to cost me a job or a girlfriend .... but give it time.

Icewind Dale and Icewind Dale2 :) just bought Sacred and trying to get into it, I mean you get to play a Vampiress :notworthy:

then there's always Diablo2 and Dungeon Siege

I did start Neverwinter Nights, but got bored with it.

I'm more of a PS2 man when it comes to games. Currently saving up for the latest "Legacy Of Kain" game. :lol: I've been blasting my way through "Devil May Cry" as well recently.

Grand Theft Auto : Vice City, Pro Evolution Soccer 3 (both on PS2) & Championship Manager (PC) are the particulars that are contributing to the decline of my social life.

@ Andymackem... :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:
I've been Carlisle United for 4 seasons now & I'm still trying to just avoid relegation!

On PC:

Half Life. Play it HLDM FAR too much. If anyone else plays it, you can usually find me on the FF Clan servers. Don't play Counter Strike because it sucks and it's full of 10 yr olds who have no idea how to play HL properly.

Also taking up my precious time are Battlefield 1942 and Homeworld 2 (which I am amazing bad at, but it looks so pretty!)

On PS2:

Currently FFX and Silent Hill 3.

Games I was hoping would be much better than they are:

Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Kinda fun, but gets very irritating. Online is a joke. Maybe I didn't give it enough of a chance.

Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast - A fun game, but again the online gaming got too annoying. Maybe I just don't like Quake engined games.

Unreal 2
GTA when it arrives
Enter The Matrix when I install more RAM
XIII - Very Good and Very Hard
Max Payne Mods
HL Day Of Defeat
HL just for the nostagia

and any decent FPS - I like to KILL KILL KILL!!!!!!

On the other hand - "Strategy" games such as "Age Of Empires" and their like just DONT do it for me - Am i missing something?
