So, it's hard for me to find a game that I really enjoy playing anymore. Maybe it's because I have been gaming for over 20 years. But I have found two of them that I have been playing a lot lately.

Call of Duty 4, and yes many of you all have been playing this a lot lately as well. I can start a game a 7pm and play to 12am, and that is a lot of game time for me. It's just one of those fun mutiplayer games that everyone should play at least once. Now if you are a BF2 player there are some things that you will miss, but trust me when you go back to playing BF2. You'll be hitting your COD4 keys because the game pulls you in.

Then the other game is the anniversary Tomb Radier for PC. Now I really have never been a Tomb Raider fan, maybe it was because the only time I have ever tried it was on low resolution consoles that could of been it. But this remake of this game seems flawless, I have fallen almost in the cult love for this game in a very short time. Lets just say I put around 20 hours in it this weekend alone. If you haven't played Tomb Radier in a long time like me pick this up and give it a try for a few hours. Some of the puzzles in this game will piss you off make you go say some swear words and come back for more. Yes that is how it works.



Any other games that anyone is currently addicted too?

I remember when I first discovered Oblivion. I lost several days and missed quite a few classes. I also lost all of my data my disk, and ended up getting it on 360, only to have the 3 lights of death. I'm hooked on CoD4 and C&C3.

i love oblivion engine, but i don't like how I keep killing npc's that are helping me in battles and then i realize that i didn't save for a long time and i need to replay, i replay and the accident happens again... you get the idea :D but perhaps the biggest reason i don't play oblivion is because it lacks the dark side.
Some of you probably know the dark brotherhood in oblivion. Vampires and all that stuff. Well I loved it, but when the quests ended, my interest in the game ended as well. Thats why I LOVED Vampires Bloodlines Masquerade game. it was perfect for my taste.
I'm still waiting to play the Witcher and may be Tomb Raider Anniversary
I played some of the previous tomb raider and they were quite interesting.

i picked up vampires the other day due to the fact that it was highly spoken of by a few members on this forum, and i loved it i highly recomend you play it, although it was a bit tricky to enable the console in the steam version

Thats the only thing about games like that that require huge amounts of hrs to even beat a game. If you lose a drive or have to do a format and forget to back something up, you lose all interest in the game. I have done that before. Few times. I have yet to beat Lost Planet because I almost had the game beat and I had to format and I could not find the damn save files. I haven touched it since.

that has happened with so many games, thats the one reason why i liked hellgate, they backed up your saved games online, so if your like me and format the wrong drive, they make sure you dont loose everything, i kinda wish i could back up my 80gb of music somehow with out an external drive, or any of my saved games for that matter

Apart from Battlefield 2 and sometimes 2142, I can't stop playing Crysis. Its so addicitve.
I never really imagined that I'd like it all that much, but its seriously alot of fun once you start playing. Im really into the game now.

My current gaming-addiction: IL2 Sturmovik, Supreme Commander/SC: Forged Alliance, Red Orchestra and Oblivion (modded quite extensively). Getting Pirates of the Burning Sea either tonight or tomorrow, which will most likely become my new addiction. Of course, IL2 will still be taking a lot of my free time.

i honestly hate games like that, they just piss me off, i like a good puzzle game every now and again, but then are always just those one or two puzzles in a game where they give you nothing to go off of, and your supposed to know what to do, and then it turns out it was incredibly simple, and with one clue you could have gotten it in about 5 min tops
