    I tried to play BG2Tutu, but unfortunately
    it had some conflict with localized versions
    of the game, so no BG in one game for me.
    :/

    BTW: I play ToEE, CrashDay, NFS:Carbon (what
    a crappy game! Whatever happened to NFS4 or 5),
    played Oblivion, and a little of NWN2 (pleasant surprise).
    That's all I think.

    Looking forward to:
    KotB
    BG3 ;)
    Test Drive Unlimited PC
    Fallout 3 (like that's gonna happen)
    or any other good RPG.

    Well, I just ran across this game (http://www.samorost.net/samorost2/) and it is no huge release but it is really fun and strange and definitely ^different^ and so far (I'm around four screens in) I'm really enjoying it. It reminds me of the old text-based adventure games, updated to a more-visual age.


    edit (to avoid posting again, after myself!):

    I'd completely forgotten to mention a game I played to death (& back again) a few years back, called Majesty. This game had a tremendous amount of charm & replayability. It is billed as a "fantasy kingdom sim" but that's just inaccurate and while it does have elements of rts and sims, it is uniquely itself, and loads of fun. And probably has the distinction of being even less-supported (at this point) by its publisher, and also cheaper off the rack than, ToEE!

    I am quite shocked that no one here mentioned System Shock 1&2 and the upcoming Bioshock.

    Beaten: ALOT. Almost all the blackisle crpgs. Fallout 1&2. Civilization series. Ultima 6,7,8,9.

    But the best experiences were the System Shocks!

    Playing: Older games. Sacrifice, Space Empires V, Dominions 3, some DOS-classics.

    Looking Forward to: Bioshock.

    And as you can see, I actually mentioned it in my first post ;)

    Oops. I hope you will forgive me!

    And I saw that I didn't mention ToEE. Shame on me!

    I haven't played the Baldur's Gate series in a while. I've just finished re-installing the series, along with the BGTutu mod, and several other add-ons. (No game-breaking or cheating ones, mind you. Just general game fixes and extensions.) It'll be good to get back to that again.

    As for games I'm looking forward to... I'd probably say that I'm looking forward to getting around to some of the other D&D games, such as Icewind Dale and the like. :)

    Recently re-Beat:

    Eye Of the Beholder 1+2 (Amiga Emulation) = The first game is class. It's so D&D and slow and taxing!

    Death Knights of Krynn (another Amiga one) = Another solid game that looks terrible.

    Drgaonshard - this game is so wrong it's almost on purpose.

    Playing:

    Company of Heroes
    LOTR Battleformiddlleearth2 = more modding than playing
    TOEE = thanks to co8:notworthy

    Looking forward to the day another game company makes some AD&D games.


    btw, system shock 2 is great game.

    I am currently play Avernum 4 and Geneforge4 ,both great game,with a strong feeling of role play which i did'nt meet in TOEE.The graphic is poor ,but numberous and propriety descrition make up to it,which make the world and people alive.When playing TOEE, i am the type of people who actes as a barbarian,just keep on fighting and fighting.I don't have the experience of play Greyhawk .I play TOEE with the purpose of learning 3E and also like the turn-base. So l lack of the enthusiasm when your see the Grayhawk.Also because the game don't tell much about the world or the area,and the storyline is a little stereotype.Looking forward to the KOB mod wiil do better.

    Does anyone else find this passage to be strangely poetic? I think it should be added to the annals of Co8's most oddly compelling deliveries ever. :mrhappy:

    All your Keep are belong to us.

    Cloudsprinter, if u have an Amiga emulator going, give Paradroid a whirl! Andrew Braybrook is absolutely the greatest of game-makers.

    I didn't really enjoy lego starwars. I had a bit of an xbox binge and clocked Gun, Kotor, jedi acadamy and Kingdom Underfire. I hired out jade emipire but didn't think it was that good. I've also had a bit of fun playing some RTS's/RTT's, Warcraft 2 and 3 were fun as well as the best game of 2002 that no one played - Battle Realms in the RTT field the total war franchise was fun.

    Paradroid! What a game! Did anyone actually finish this? I used to get so far in that ship and eventually get slaughtered time and again on the last deck. Extremely hard.

    Anyone here played Anachronox? Been going through some old RPG's that I have never finished (Just finished Magic Candle 3, Damn good game btw). I saw Anachronox for sale on Ebay cheap and wondered if someone can give me the lowdown on the good/bad?
