im scared of playing games that are birds eye view. After playing Oblivion and Two Worlds, it is hard to back in time to Diablo II style gaming, so I am scared of playing Titon Quest and Sacred 2

Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway
I haven't played it yet mostly because the first two in series pissed me off. Why should I have to unload three clips of M1 ammo just to get one hit!?! Seriously, no FPS has EVER annoyed me that much. Besides wasting a lot of time trying to hit them, they were pretty easy. Not to mention, WWII is getting pretty old and uninspired...


Sins of a Solar Empire
Pretty awesome game. I can't find the pink horsey though. :(

Hell's Highway is a good game and they really fixed that issue with the weapons. Earned in Blood pissed me off so bad with that. The only way I could kill anything was either using a sniper rifle or running at them guns blazing. Like I said they really fixed it up in HH so now you dont have to try as hard to shoot. I was really scared to buy the game just for that reason.
