The atmosphere in the demo was great. I don't know about the gameplay, the use of the mouse to perform functions is original but somewhat limited imho and there really was only one way to finish the demo (get to the cab), whatever you do beforehand.

You can also go by metro. Apparently in the full game choosing going by cab means the detectives later on have an easier time finding the murderer, so it most certainly does make a difference.

Since I don't wanna start a new topic, does anyone know any good PS2 games that have come out recently or will be coming out soon?

Go with "God Of War". Although, I'm not a PS2 owner, its review and recommendations were really favorable.. I guess it was a July release..

if you want a good rpg, go out and buy the game of the year pack for morrowwind, one of the best rpgs around...

There's a supposedly fixed version called Subsistence or something coming out, could I just get that?

Largest ever? Even compared to Operation Flashpoint? I haven't played FC, but how large would that island be, in square km, as a standard OFP isle is around 100 square km.

If you're into realistic games and you'd like try a FPS, OFP is a must. It's the most realistic military squad-combat FPS ever made (Well, except for the Virtual Battlefield System, or VBS. Bohemia Interactive decided to make some serious buck out of their OFP and turned it into a military training simulator). Even if the graphics are ugly on modern standards, it's still one of the most immersive games I've ever seen. There's nothing like the sound of a Russian T-80 rolling besides you when hiding in a bush, and you know that the tank is looking for you

Wow, great input lads. Thanks for all the suggestions (even those suggesting FPSs which I frankly hate and never play) I'll try out some of those and see what I'll like. In the meanwhile, Civ4 and HOMM5 are coming out before Xmas so maybe I'll just wait for a while...
