For older stuff, I think I mentioned "Soul Reaver: Legacy of Cain" before. And Myth I and Myth II. Dave and Stephen mentioned Thief: the Dark Project.

> Bleh. I have said how much I dislike Theif! Anyway, as for current games: No One Lives Forever is getting insanely good reviews. The folks at Old Man Murray actually LIKED it (and considering their hatred for the developer this is pretty good). People are calling it better than Half-Life in some respects. I've yet to try it, since the demo won't run on my computer for vague reasons I've yet to determine.

> Red Alert 2 has been occupying most of my game time recently, and I must say I rather like it. It's not excactly mind blowing, but it's a very refined RTS game that's similar enough to the original (a game I enjoyed for a while) while fixing most of the problems in the original. The campaign game is particularly good, though rather short. Of course, this is the first time I've liked the campaign in an RTS since StarCraft, so that's nice. Also, the videos are of the CHEASIEST quality imaginable, which rules.

Good. I have played Red Alert 1 before and thouhgt it was okay. I played the NOLF demo and was amazed. I really got into the story line.

I've played thief before, But I dunno if I wanna add that to my list.
