Deus Ex is one of the longest games I've played. Even when I know what I'm doing, it's a good 15 or 20 hours of play time, and when I didn't it was closer to 40. The only thing is I wish it was harder. Even realistic is painfully simple, since it forces you to take the passive approach. Hell, any shot to your head kills you, two or three shots to torso kills you... There's always some way to just avoid the enemy (air ducts! whoo!) or get other things to kill em for you (bots, turrets, etc). Now Thief 2.... that's a hard (and long) game.

Deus Ex is only like 30 hours but for some reason I still play DeX even though i have the story memorized in and out.

It's just engrossing... Deus Ex has one of the most fantastic storylines of any recent game. Everything you do advances the story (as opposed to, say, Half-Life, where you basically just kill stuff in the order you're told to), and it creates a world that feels almost alive. There are almost as many innocents as there are people to kill in that game, and everything you do can have some lasting effect. (Ever walked into the women's restroom at UNATCO HQ?

) Plus, it has mutant chickens.

I suppose they could be chickens to me they seem like dino turkeys

I'm on mission 4 of MOHAA (the snipers everywhere..I keep dying so much it's not even funny)

I thought half-life lasted quite a long time, and had a good story. Pity the ending was shitty. Deus Ex didn't take me that long to complete, but I didn't explore everywhere properly. The ending was a bit anti-climatic though. Just flick a bunch of switches.

I completed Max payne yesterday (only had it for 3 days). Pity this bitch from round the corner came around to ask me how to install Petz 4 or some shit. I felt good after that though, espeacially after the helicopter had killed me about 30 times.

Yesss, the first time i played... The girl gets pissed, your boss gives you a warning "These events embarass our organization more than you..." LOL

And later on, after some missions, she's talking to a guard then sees you and says "Oh hi JC." the guard says: "You already know him?" the girl says: "Yes, i told you remember? We met in the bathroom." LOLOLOL

Half-life is very long, for a FPS. I completed Blue-Shift in few hours, it's about as long as 'Surface Tension' chapter in original HL, which is the best chapter btw. It's the mods what kept Half Life alive after you've completed it. Counter Strike for example, though it's getting old now. And all the single player mods if you only bothered downloading them.

Surface Tension is indeed the best. The worst Black Mesa episode was the last one before Xen. I hated the game after that.

I liked all of them, except the last one. To many jumping puzzles.

I like Opposing forces best as a single-player campaign. It took the best bits from the original, then got rid of the bits that didn't work. But they still fucked up the end.

That boss was really boring and unorginal. HL ending was alot better too.

The endning in HL kinda spoiled the excellent game. A classic back then but try playing it now and compare it to other shooters out there. I bet the impact isn't as great as it was when you played it the first time. FPS's nowadays have scripted events and actually a plot or story of some sort. HL was first to introduce that into FPS genre, surprisingly enough.

But nothing beats Doom...

You didnt get that the sciencetists were studying the creatures long before the accident? God, i thought that was soo obvious!

I finished Blade Runner really quickly, and got pretty much all the different endings. I really like that game.

Hm... I've been wondering where to get Blade Runner - for low price, of course.

I heard there's a DVD-version of it out, is that true?

It would make everything quite simple, when I'd only have to meddle with one disc.

I found a 4 disc edition at Toysrus
