The HL series have been my favorite ever since I started playing back in 1999. The flexible engines, limitless expandability and ease of use always brought me back for more. I've been playing a mod or extension of the series almost every day for 8 years. That's saying something about a game's longevity.
Other favs:
Unreal Tournament series
Crysis
Flatout
Diablo series
IL2 Sturmovik
Mech Commander
Chrono Cross
The Sonic the Hedgehog Genesis series
Oh how I long for a new mech game!!!! Anyone else play Earthsiege 2 or Heavy Gear 2? These were amazing games for their time and if some company would resurrect the mech genre, with today's gaming possibilities (think amazing graphics, sounds, storylines!!!!) I would be insanely happy!
Battlefield 1942 made me feel horribly ill from motion sickness The game literally almost made me throw up... Oh, and the graphics made me want to cry Although the first fps I ever played was Ghost Recon 2: Advanced Warfare, so I got used to good graphics quickly xD

Oh yeah, the possibilities! Mech Assault gave us a taste of what could be possible visually for last-gen systems. (Sadly, it was watered down and favored arcade styles). But now that the rights to the Mechwarrior franchise is in the hands of the founder of FASA, we could probably expect a new mech game within a year or so. I can't wait.
I'd say it was your own fault that you almost threw up from motion sickness, Battlefield 1942 beats most games that are out even now in the graphics, I havnt played any of the ghost recon games so I wouldnt know about those.
Well, it's not my own fault that a game makes me invoulentarily sick, but I see what you mean graw2 is a good game, short, but good. I completed it in 3 sittings :bigggrin:
Does anybody else long for a new Myst or something? I'm tired of shooting and driving, I want a real mystery, no guns blazing, just something I have to think about and meander through at my own pace and solve puzzles and junk. Uncharted got close, but ended up with way too much action.
Is there such a game on the market now? Sadly, even with compatibility mode, Myst for Windows 95 won't install on Vista :/ Haha.
As far as my favorite games, I'm stuck on the Orange Box (gonna replay the whole HL series soon), COD4, currently engrossed in GH3 (6 songs left on expert), and am picking up Army of Two when it comes out and impatiently awaiting Spore and MGS4.
The last Myst game released was like "Myst: the last one" or something like that. So I dunno if another is in the works. I get my adventure gaming fix from old games like Sam & Max: Hit the Road, or any other LucasArts game.
Have you tried Dosbox? You might be able to get Myst to work on that.
I can't recommend new puzzle/adventure games because I haven't played 'em
Good looking out on the DOSbox. I'm gonna have to look more into it to see if it can handle installing a game, or if it can only run all-in-one packages. The Myst I have can't even install for me.

Thanks bud.
It can do anything DOS or Win95 could do. Install, uninstall, run, configure sound, video, etc.

Right now it's Super Smash Bros. Melee. I'm trying to re-harness my skills for when Brawl comes out. I'm a beast as Link and Roy:banghead:. I'm also playing a little Crysis online. I've found the absolute best sniper spot. Lynx knows what I'm talking about.
I picked up Army of Two today, pretty much solely for the fact that anything my friend and I play coop is a freaking hoot. So far it's a pretty decent game, really.
I'm playing Gears of War, Burnout (cause crashing and mahem in gnereal never gets old) and am about to finally quite messing around and finish Oblivion. I've been basically just running around when I've played recently finishing all sorts of side missions, need to finish the last main mission.
Hey, Well im quite in to Call Of Duty 4 modern warfare. i only play online as my brother hogs the cd! . if anyone elses plays Cod4 online just say or add me on xfire Robster93
