Next to the fallout games, Deus Ex is about the only other game I can replay time and time again and still find fun things to do in it.

HOMM3 is so wonderful. I just happened across an install file from a friend. Been playing it tons the last couple days, and I remember how much I loved it.

Or find his home address and lets kick his ass.


Regardless, yes, Heroes of Might and Magic 3. Such a wonderful game. If anyone else likesit and would like the install file I can send it to you via AIM or something.

Beyond Good and Evil (Yeah yeah I know, but I SWEAR give this thing a chance) UBI Soft did it a great diservice by pumping all the Marketing budget to Prince of "Persia:Sands of Time".

Mark of Kri which as described by a good friend "had the level of stealth combat the likes which I haven't messed around since the second MGS" Plus there is something cool about a big Samoan guy going around decapitating scrawny brigands as his stealth kills.

Someone mentioned it before, but lo and behold this is the TBS game that everyone should have had the chance to experience before the genre got big and EA ruined the franchise in question: X COM UFO DEFENSE.

Tribes 1 & 2, yup I agree. The kind of kickass mods that were available for both versions just blows my mind. Can't wait to see what they do next.

I loved Tribes2 so much. I lost the disc though, I think. I should find it and play again. What kind of mods are there?

I got Mafia yesterday, and I've been playing it for a while. Perhaps it's just the Django Reinhardt and Tommy Guns speaking, but so far it's a pretty terrific game, and the game city is pretty beautiful. I'll have to wait a bit for the initial thrill to wear off, but it's a candidate for the awesome list. Eh, wot?
suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. suddenly somebody will say like 'plate' or 'shrimp' or 'plate of shrimp', out of the blue, no explanation.

Mafia is one of the best game experiences i've had in recent years. The ambience is great, gameplay is simple but engaging, the driving is top notch (unlike GTA, in here you actually 'feel' the cars)... pretty much everything was well done. I have my problems with it, but then again, i have problems with pretty much every game >.>

Finally someone not in love with GTA. I thought GTA3 and Vice City were kind of ordinary.

Also, Manhunt is hella good, only on PS2 though.

One of the greatest game too is Shinning Force II, on Genesis. The first was good but the second was even better. Engaging story, nice graphics for the time and TB combat.
