Well I just posted about Fallout 3 - I think it might be the best single-player game I've played. I have clocked something like 200 hours on it, which is HUGE for a single-player game. The only games I've played as much are DooM back in the day and Call of Duty series online, which is excellent on PC.
Well, I always like dystopian games&movies. Stalker was great on PC as well.
I first played Fallout 3 a little ways on PC and it failed to hook me then...but something stuck in my mind, and I got it on Xbox and yeah, it hooked me good. It can be a bit hard to get going with it I guess, but it's a lot of fun if you like adventure and action combined.
On Xbox, The Orange Box was the bargain of the century...another dystopy...Half-Life2 was good enough to play thru again, definitely! Right now I'm playing Mass Effect which is good enough, very movie-like and such, a bit clean and feels like grinding a little at times. (I never really warmed at Halo either...or Gears of War...both feel very boring and repetitive to me) The fighting on Mass Effect seems too hard at least in the beginning. But I won't give up on it. Have to check if the fights can be done turn-based as well, it'd be better on the long run with repetitive battles. I used to think turn-based, animated fights suck big time, but Fallout 3 changed my mind - on consoles it may be preferable, lacking the fine touch of mouse.
Of recent games I played, I kinda liked the Condemned 2, although that's almost too violent for me. Another bargain bin game anyway.
