That's not what I said... I said that if you enjoy the trickjumping side of RTCW you might like this game. That's because the game looks like it's going to focus a lot on movement, not just the regular point and shoot. Obviously the SMART system is going to take a whole lot less skill to use than trickjumping, but personally I'm sick of standard one dimensional shooters, so if it gives players something else to master besides aiming then I'll give it a shot.

For a real challenge, I like to fire up Diner Dash 2. No other game can give you the insane mental workout that this one can. After one particular seventeen hour session, in which I was wearing an adult diaper so I wouldn't have to leave the pc, I had actually made it to a level where I was not only taking orders and clearing tables, but serving dessert and coffee as well.. OMG! Behind me the kids were crying, and upstairs my wife was battling a raging grease fire and begging me to help. Well, long story short, the distractions became too much for me... When a party of 6 got tired of waiting to be seated and left, I lost it and went all Angry German Kid on my new keyboard. I had to uninstall that day, but I'll admit it still calls to me.

lol... to be fair though, their previous games looked like pieces of shit before anyone bought them to be disappointed. So, if I play this game and I think that it's a piece of shit, they'll at least have stepped up in that manner.

People still play Q3a? I would think after quakelive came out it would become obsolete...

It's about as obsolete as RTCW is, now that Wolfenstein 2009 is out.

San Andreas Multiplayer (SA-MP) on Crazybob's cops and robbers server
around 150 people per server, MMOGTA game. lots of retards, lots of stuff to do, lots of fun. Crazybob's runs all 2 servers rotating all 3 cities. at this point you can easily download san andreas and sa-mp for free. if you decide to play, hit me up for some pointers, i be called Lunatic.
in the past i played the first halo for a long long time and got a little bit into counter strike source. more recently i've enjoyed left 4 dead. tried to play TF2, but it just doesn't do it for me.
oh yeah and Farmville on facebook

Right now i'm playing Mass Effect. (singleplayer game!) Bought it on steam (cheap) and been playing it all weekend.
It's the only game that i felt an "aha feeling" since rtcw came out.
It's great! Story, ambient sounds, music, atmosphere, characters.. you name it.
I spent 6 hours just walking around the Citadel doing all the small assignments before i even went on an ordinary mission.
Usually i just play thrue a single player game, never bothering about secondary objects. But this game.. damn.
Best part is: Mass Effect 2 is out in one month!

Mass effect was a cool game shooter
Most games Bethesda have done have been great

I've been addicted to this game for a while now...
http://www.planetcalypso.com/home/
Kind of FPS, and MMORPG combination. The game is still evolving since a major rewrite Version 10 and updated graphic engine. At VU 10.7.2 now.
You'll also need a half decent graphic card to play in High graphic setting.
The free download is about 3 Gigs. I wish they had a torrent setup for this.
You don't pay for subscription, but most everything in game costs through usage (decay)... I've been playing over a year, and have yet to deposit $.
But if you have cash to burn, and no time to waste, then deposit !
The game has a feel of a casino slot machine (one arm bandit), you loot creatures (Mobs) sometimes you get loot, some times you get nothing.
You can mine, but again... hit or miss!
And then networking with folks, chatting... etc.
IF you guys check it out, I suggest you also read Entropia Forums, don't waste your PED being in a rush to buy stuff in game. ($1 USD = 10 PED)
The PED currency used on Calypso has a fixed exchange rate of 10:1 with the US dollar allowing you to deposit and withdraw real funds during your adventures on Calypso.

I play Call of Duty 4 and looking to pick up Battlefield Bad Company 2. Sometime this year I'll try GRID or rFactor Racing Sim games. I haven't played a racing game for six years since the NFSU days (not online). I played ET but wasn't a fan of it eventually leading me to discontinue the game.
