    Installed Quake 3 for some mindless FPS action. I almost forgot how much fun this game was, but my FPS skills have diminished somewhat. It's going to take me some time before I get effective with the railgun again.

    Bad Company 2 on PS3, Far Cry 2 on Xbox, Age of Empires (1!!!!) on PC,


    Far Cry 2 is an amazing game still, but it was weird how it handled the part I just did; I was at like 31% completion, then several blackouts, cutscenes, and about an hour later, I'm at like 48%. still great.

    Age of Empires, where can I start? Old school RTS, if you haven't heard of it you must be living under a rock, 10,000 feet below the surface of Death Valley. Still pretty damn difficult though.

    I picked up Mass Effect 1 yesterday. So far its fun, but very different to ME2. Combat took some getting used to, but Im working on it and soon I will be as good as I was in ME2. I made it through my first firefight in ME1 today without dying!

    Freedom Fighters-PS2-good somewhat oldie
    POP:TFS-360-Not as good as the original Sand of time trilogy games but still good
    Mercenaries 2-360-good random nonsensical destruction

    I recently got ME2 on a deal for $25, but realized I didn't keep my save game when I upgraded to Windows7.

    So I went back and rolled up 2 new characters in ME1. A male "paragon" soldier and a female "renegage" infiltrator. After playing both through the intro mission, I decided I was having a lot more fun playing as my infiltrator, so I stuck with her. I haven't played the game in a long time and I forgot what fun it was. Another benefit is that I got to play the Bringing Down the Sky DLC for the first time. It was a great mission for a renegade leaning character.

    Speaking of ME1 and 2, has anyone ever tried not going primarily by the paragon/renegade choices? There is a thread over at the official forums that challenges people to not choose paragon/renegade choices just because they are paragon/renegade in order to get higher p/r scores.
    I took up this challenge, so now I play through making choices that I would do, not just because they are p/r. So sometimes I'll comfort someone, the other times I'll throw them out of windows.
    And if I'm in a conversation and Ive been a good guy so far but Im getting impatient, Ill just punch the guy because he annoys me.
    Makes the game much more personable.

    The problem I've found with playing games as if I'm in them is I'm too nice a guy to too many people

    Why don't you play Quake Live then?

    It's what everyone's playing nowadays, including me.
    BLARGH!
