Post 2 Parts: 1. What games installed on PC, 2. Which are you playing?

Hey folks, what games do you have installed on your system (not demos) and which are you actively playing and which is your favorite?

Right now I got installed: Farcry, Doom III, Pariah, SW: Republic Commando, HL2, GTA: SA, UT2004, Deus Ex: Invisible War, Painkiller w/Battle out of Hell exp, C&C: Generals, Giants, Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, Spellforce, Dungeon Siege 2.

I am only currently playing: Farcry, Deus Ex: Invisible War, Painkiller: BOOH, and Dungeon Siege 2. I am really loving DS2, but Painkiller: BOOH is killer too. See, if I'm going to do some DS2, I have to set some time aside since that game (for me) will be played a MINIMUM of 1 hour at a time where with Painkiller: BOOH, I can do a quick 10-15 if I need a fix. You know?

I have pretty much every game you mentioned and more installed...

I'm playing Dungeon Siege 2 (level 15 or so), BF2, GTA:SA (barely anymore) and BF42(mods)

My psp basically just has porn on it now.

I like to keep my PC clean and simple...

I like the internet. So I have this www.tarentinos.com for wallpapers that I make since it is a strange obsession of mine. How wonderful.

Nice

Oh how I remember Freespace 2. What a freakin blast! Have you tried Freelancer? That game was pretty nice too.

Been thinking of installing Quake 3 Arena. Yeah, I was one of those guys at the local cyber-cafe playing Quake 3 while others where playing the new CS. Honestly, for every hour of CS I played, I played 4 of Quake 3. So many mods for it too remember? I enjoy CS, but there is something that CS lacks that Quake 3 had: CONSTANT ACTION!! None of this worrying about teammates or dying only to watch other play on until new round etc. Yeah, Quake 3 rocked.

My fav Q3 mod was the one that turned all of your weapons into ultra weapons with ULTRA re-firing rates. Remember, shooting the railgun as fast as the machine gun or shooting the rocket launcher and launch 7 rockets in the time it normally took to shoot one? So nice. I always got a blast out of someone hitting a jump pad to another platform only to be shot mid-air by me causing their trajectory to change and they would not make the landing and fall and die! I loved doing that. Always got a kick out of it. That's it!! Installing Q3!!!

I've heared good things about Freelancer but I haven't tried it. I'm still only about a fourth way through Freespace 2. I just need to sit and finish it. LOL

Yeah, RA3 is like that, except the other guy can't land too well without a head.

*boots up ra3*
I just love the movement in that game. It's incredible that a bunch of exploits ended up making such a fun game.

Oh and Ureal 1.
