Ever got the feeling?

You're sitting there, playing one of your regular games, and all of a sudden the urge hits you to play another game. Either it's one that you haven't played in forever...or it's one in the store, that you've never played. There used to be a day, I can remember when I'd walk into a store, and see TONS of games, that I wanted and didn't have. Now, it's quite the opposite. There's still quite a few titles out there...they just don't interest me.

Man, I'm gonna be glad when Half-Life 2 and StarWars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 (The Sith Lords) comes out. They're the two I'm waitin' on.

Feel free to offer up some suggestions on some decent games...I could use 'em.

I fell the same way, just beat Far Cry yesterday, and now I'm working on Doom 3. I can't wait for HL2, but Full Spectrum Warrior for PC is looking sweet too.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. but as HL2 it isn't out yet.

i'd have to agree with you tho, maybe we're getting old or something but there just seem to be fewer and fewer games that look worth while. Far Cry , as twisted said, was one of the suprises and i actually liked it, doom3... well to keep it nice, i think it sucks. Maybe the new Tribes will be good, at least its build on my fav engine

One of my favorite 'old' games, was FreeSpace 2. There was so much thought and depth put into that universe...I only wish that there would've been a 3rd one.

GutterPunk · Sep 16, 2004, 05:22 PM

I just reinstalled dungeon keeper 1 and 2. Anyone remember those games, I think they are the best.
I can't wait for STALKER too, but I still haven't beat Doom 3 yet, just haven't had the time.

Happens to me all the time. I'll be playing a 'modern' game and then I'll get the itch for some... lets say... Ninja Gaiden 2 and I'll play that instead and have more fun.

it's because publishers believe there is more money in consoles (which there probably is)...
