Wow you're a hateful one aren't ya.
Welcome to the board, I see you're new here
In any case, I just got
Just Cause 2 on Thursday and it hasn't left the PS3 since, sooooooo HUGE but gets very repetitive fast, but I can still dig it cos the free-roaming is nuts and did I mention it's HUGE.
In any case, I think GU sums it up pretty perfectly:

As for old games, ugh, I don't wanna go there, I've played everything major and most minor since like -93 on the PC and most console games on the big consoles, except
Dreamcast, which no one I know had when I was a kid. So, I've played almost every game mentioned in this thread, some obsessively.
I will say one thing for
BG1 and 2 tho, I plan to play thru them again, I have them on 2 DVDs with the expansions on 2 CDs (no, not copies, I actually got them again before I left for Ireland) and I plan to use this awesome mod for the first one:
BG1tutu.
It takes the engine of BG2 and makes it work for BG1, with everything that comes with it like Kits and so forth. It's awesome.
And of course I will have other mods too, but that is the main one.
As for the new BioWare games, not that into the tunnel runs.
Mass Effect seemed like 1 big tunnel connected to another. Haven't checked
2 out yet, but hearing Joystiq praise it as the best game ever has turned me off it completely, don't they know that
MSG4 is the best game ever. Fuckers.
And of course my Xbox360 is back in Finland
Dragon Age threw me off as soon as I started it and from what I saw my buddy play it. I think I'll stick to BGs, call me old fashioned but I like the AD&D world and mechanics much better than BioWares "Hey we don't have the D&D license anymore, let's make a game that steals one of their worlds, renames everything and call it Dragon age just to pull in all the people that want a new D&D game" effort.
Really, how hard is it to make a game like BG1 or 2 in scope when we have games like GTA4 and MGS4, not to even mention WoW.
I think my next game will be
GoW3, tho I will have to finish
GoW2 first, but at least my sister found it among my games. I may go back to
GTA: SA as well.
