I got Bioshock for the PC on Christmas. Great game. I love the art-deco from the 40s graphics. I just finished playing on the "good path" and now I am ready to begin a new game on the "bad path". After I'm done, I will be returning to Neverwinter Nights 2.

I really hope that Bioware sticks with this franchise. KOTOR II was so soulless...it looked, felt, sounded like KOTOR, but you could tell it wasn't the same thing.



Well I read in a magazine that Bioware might be working on KOTOR III, but that it might be an MMO. So that would be all kinds of awesome.

I played a little more Bioshock, I could only play like ten minutes. Got the Orange Box and played a little Portal and Team Fortress, it was my first time playing any online game. I was clobbered for an hour before I got the hang of TF. I got my first kill a half hour after that.

It was fun but to fast paced for me. And jumping in feet first into the game wasn't a good idea. They should have had a tutorial you could play offline first for new players. Haven't started Half Life but I'm really looking forward to it.

Portal is one of the most underrated games ever. Have fun with it!

And I really wish TF2 had some sort of practice session or something. I used to play the original, but it took some time getting used to the upgrades.

There're too many MMOs. I'd rather KOTOR III be a stand alone.

I really wanted to like the KOTOR comic...it was very slowly paced, though, and didn't convey the feeling that KOTOR did. Other than setting and title, there wasn't anything to tie the comic to the game, at least not through the first several issues.

I can live without a Bioware KOTOR game if it means DLC for Mass Effect, and ME2 in late 2008/2009.

I got stuck on the first test with the acid on the floor, or whatever that is. :D

If it meant Bioware doing Star Wars again, I take that over anything else. Now that they're with EA I'm sure they could work on more than two games at a time.

How is PORTAL underrated? every body loves it

Also Drake's Fortune for PS3 is AMAZING!

I deleted all the non-real life friends from my 360 last week. Nothing personal, but I had entirely too many people on there and the pop ups when I was playing got slightly annoying. If anyone wants to re-add me, that's cool. I just didn't want a bunch of people on there for no reason.

I just finished Drake's Fortune this past weekend. It is a really fun game.

I still need to finish it. I got stuck on a boss battle and haven't picked it back up yet.

I keep getting sidetracked and doing hunts. I've been gleefully walking everywhere to get licence points and silly-big chains.

Getting closer to finishing my second run through Mass Effect. I'm way Renegade, but have managed to pick up a couple big Paragon bonuses along the way. I've already achieved the Quarian Ally award, working on Asari.

And yes, I'm already planning my next run through...full biotic, probably take Ashley and either garrus or Alenko.

I'm doing a renegade soldier on mass effect. I'm really running with Ashley and the Quarian.

I need the tech!
