    [​IMG] This is directly inspired from a similar thread in Booktalk, and indirectly by Harbourboy, Aikanaro and Klorox. The reason I think this could be interesting is too see whether most people on the boards are playing the new games (i.e. not more than 2 months old) or older ones, either replaying them or because they've only gotten around to them now.

    Me, I finished Ultima 3 this morning. I had never imagined I would find myself enjoying such and old game, though I'm starting to notice I'm generally not put off by old games if they're actually fun to play. And I'm going to replay Ultima 4 soon :grin:

    KOTOR2. What a great game. Just make sure you have latest drivers installed for your vid-card...

    Playing Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne right now. I know I'm a bit late, but I was too tied up in BG2 and Unreal 2 all these days.

    PS: Night elves suck. :(

    I am playing Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal expansion and have been for the last six months or so (what great value for money). I have not played any other games during that period, as this game takes long enough on its own.

    Mostly Age of Mythology. I'm also playing some Morrowind again and trying Divine Divinity for the first time.

    Currently I'm playing KOTORII, which so far is great, Icewind Dale which I vowed to finish this time and Might and Magic VIII which I finally got installed on SP2 with hardware abilities that work.

    I am playing Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle Earth. It is very much like Age of Mythology but with much less interesting level design and worse unit strength balancing. The AI can be truly idiotic - it is absolutely unreal how you can fire ranged weapons from just outside an opponent's visual range and they will just stand there and let you pick them off like flies.

    I have finished the Good campaign and I am running through the Evil campaign now. It is king of amusing - I have so far levelled Helm's Deep, killed all of the Hobbits and recovered the One Ring, and I am preparing to attack Minas Tirith.

    Zelda games on gba/c and gc. You can get the old zelda games on "players choice" edition discs and **** to play on the gc but I can't find one that has the snes zelda on it. That was my favourite.

    Counterstrike Source, by far the best online game I've played.

    Nothing presently. I'm pondering how immediately I should start replaying PS:T :)

    Maybe I should try make some more progress on System Shock 2 first though... *shrugs*

    Playing BG again, planning to run my ranger/cleric through BG@ and ToB as well while I wait for all the bugs to get worked out of KotOR2 before I get it.

    @Eric Xanthus

    They upgraded the requirements from KotOR1? :eek:

    Mostly playing PS:T right now, (will be) my first play-through. For some reason that I can't remember, I stopped playing shortly after meeting Ravel last time.

    I'm also playing some World of Warcraft, and my newest BG2 game when time isn't taken up by the other games, books, or school.

    I just finished PS:T for the umpteen time, and i'm at a loss of what to play. If only KotOR 2 was affordable... as is it exceeds my budget of 12.99 or less :)

    Star Wars Galaxies. Such a fun game. My character is on the Chilastra galaxy, if anybody wants to know, and you'll know her when you see her, since she's named after me. Training to be a Creature Handler and a Pistoleer.
