It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.

Also, is it just me. Or do older games mainly dominate this list? Is it just me. Or do they not make PC games as good as they used to?



In no order:

Warcraft 3
World of Warcarft
The Sims
Roller Coaster Tycoon
Left 4 Dead



Err... this is hard. 5 top games that I mostly would name, can't get them into any order though (and I'm counting a few franchise rather than individual titles):

Half Life franchise
System Shock franchise
Deus Ex (pity I can't say franchise)
Grim Fandango
Thief franchise

basically I prefer a first person perspective for immersion but I want a compelling atmosphere and narrative with some light RPG elements - with the exception of Grim Fandango, which I'll take in any perspective I can.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

A third deus ex is coming this year I think. Could have sworn I saw something in a gameinformer.

There's a third on the way indeed, and I dearly hope they don't mess up this time.  With 2 they both tried to push a modified Unreal engine too far while at the same time cut back on level size, etc. to fit it on the Xbox and the result was just terrible.  Horrible, tiny levels, useless stealth despite and actually quite advanced lighting system, broken character rag dolls and no sense of scale, ever (well, apart from the openning cinematic, which was ace).

The only gripe I think I have with MS entering the console market is the indirect impact they had on Deus Ex 2 and Thief 3 which negatively hurt both titles, particularly Deus Ex 2 vs what they could have been if simply made properly for PC (which is what they should have been at the time).

Now though, with PS3/360 have some decent horsepower hopefully they can get back to what made Deus Ex great.  I'm not very confident though because I suspect they'll make it more of a shooter than anything else.
