Games pacify me about the same today as they did in yesteryear, although I went through a slump in the mid 2000's and slipped into retro.
Oblivion awoke me from my retro slumber and there has been many good releases since. I just built a new quad core Sandy Bridge rig and awaiting a second GTX 460 to run in SLI. People are trying just as hard today t make killer games as they did back in the day, nevermind the corporate been counters.
Online activation of new games suck and keeps you from selling your titles. Might as well accept it though, it's not going away and more are embracing it everyday. At least if my house burns to the ground I still have all my Steam titles. Just cant beat that big box feeling in your hands though huh?
Maybe you just needing some new hardware, or most of all a new title to play. Here's a list of a few great "not retro" games, I figure will be retro cool in another 10 years. 😁
Oblivion
Heroes of Might and Magic V
Fallout 3 -OMG it's the bomb
Half life 2 and it's Episodes
King's Bounty: The Legend (the new one)
Puzzle Quest -I know, crazy isn't it.
Bioshock 1&2
Beyond Good & Evil
Anno 1701
Company of Heroes
and more but I'm done rambling....
Don't forget your root's, but the are still great games still being made today. And WTF is everyone going crazy over minecraft for, I mean forealz it's stoopid.
