I'm playing SiN Episodes Emergence, it's got this dynamic difficulty setting that makes it nearly impossible and very frustrating yet I can't stop trying to kill those chaingun guards. Plus I go get lost in Oblivion for a few hours every day. On-line, I'm playing Guild Wars. The last online FPS I played was F.E.A.R., and not that much. Unfortunately Quake 4 didn't hold my interest, it was fun to play through and I'd like to to give Q4Max more of a go, see what happens. We're coming up on 10 years of Quake, we should have a party. -- Shout for all the people who have nothing to say, 'cause we're only gone tomorrow and here today Steve ¤»Inglo«¤ www.inglostadt.com

Got Quake 4 and King Kong for Christmas, but haven't had time to play more than Q4 since. I've been having to deal with workmen (they're worst in the UK than anywhere else) who're trying to get away with skiving off on renovation of the house my 97-year-old Mum-in-law lived in until her death last November. And so I finish my evenings these days, after going through the fake paperwork the 'foreman' produces trying to bump the job up, by playing Q4 and thinking of the workmen while fragging Strogg bastards! You're quite right about a 10-year anniversary of Quake though. Frag on, dude!

I don't play online games at all any more. I used to play Q3 for up to 14 hours at a sitting. I must have used up months of my life playing 3wave, but just couldn't stop. Working away from home for a few months gave me an enforced break and when I got back I was a crap(pier) player and gave my vid card to my daughter for playing sims 2 and replaced my mouse with a shitty one to ensure I couldn't play it again. Might sound sad to you guys still playing but really it was sucking the life out of me and upsetting the wife.

Just finished CoD & CoD2, but don't play them online. Just started Doom3; haven't tried deathmatch yet and so far I don't like the single-player since it's all in tiny, cramped corridors, not at all like the old Doom. Plus it's too dark. Waiting to play: Quake4 Call of Cthulhu Medal of Honor (haha, I know, waayyy behind on games) Serious Sam 2 Need to re-install Q3!

How you can play it and have time for anything else (real life?) is beyond me. When I finally kick the habit, I'll probably give Dreamfall a try. Online, I still mainly play Q2, although not since Oblivion. Bob
