I've started playing Dark Forces again. I never beat it but now that I have my CT2800 sound card installed the music sound AMAZING.

Check me out at Transcendental Airwaves on Youtube! Fast-food sucks!

Wasteland 2

Any good?

I think it's pretty great. There are a few areas which get excessively large and repetitive, like the Rail Yard city. That one is a pain in the ass to trudge around.

Also it performs the cardinal sin of having every single enemy take a free move at the start of combat. The recent X-Com remake did the same thing, and it was very stupid. It does seem necessary for balance though, since otherwise the combat is fairly easy.

Agreed. Some areas are a bitch to navigate but overall the game is quite good and solid. And now patch 2 is out with even more enhancements/fixes.

I’m playing Trials Evolution (via Steam) over here, which I bought because the first one was so much fun. I was unimpressed to discover that it uses uPlay, which I was forced to use for FarCry 3 and so had an account, but which still caused me some rage inducing headaches before allowing me to play.

Anyhoo, it’s a blast to play. I don’t play modern games much these days so the graphics seem all the more amazing. The gameplay is dead easy, with constant positive reinforcement to keep the good endorphins flowing. It’s kinda like sitting down and eating a packet of iced vovo’s – you know you shouldn’t keep shoving them into your mouth but you just can’t seem to help yourself.

Life? Don't talk to me about life.

On my "modern" system I'm playing Serious Sam 3 BFE. It's quite fun, but so far all the levels look the same. I miss the variety of levels from the first two encounters.

On my 440bx system I'm playing SimTower. I really should not have started playing again, much time was wasted playing it back in the 90s.

I'm last but one mission away from the end of Quake 2. I've been trying to play through it for about 8 years or so. The mission "the Mine" confused the hell out of me, and for one or two attempts with a few months inbetween I finally got through it and am almost done.

I've still got to complete The Reckoning, and if i'm honest I still have to complete Quake 1. My problem is I go for months between plays and I get confused over what to do etc, and I end up quitting again, unless I have enough time to stick with it to progress.

playlist for the next few weeks, maybe months:

* Shadows of Mordor
* Borderlands The Pre Sequel
* Gabriel Knight Anniversary

There are more, but these titles are taking the majority of my time ATM.
