Dominions 2
Syberia 1 & 2

I guess I am so hooked on Dominions that I have not played much of anything else for months now. Just occasionally working through Syberia.

Now, if I could find a way to get paid without having to go to work, then I could play some other games...

Syberia 2 is out?? Cool.. I played the first one.. although I can't remember the ending.. I can never remember the ending of things unless they're really memorable. In fact, the only game ending that I think about on a regular basis is that of Planescape! And its been almost 5 years since I've played it.

yeah, that's Freelancer. They had big ambitions for it during development, but ended up toning things down alot. But its still a great game. The immersiveness is insane, and the universe is just HUGE (when you finish the SP, you've actually only traveled through less then a third of the game universe.) I don't normally play space sims, but this one was the exception. It also had an excellent trading system (so you can really play the entire game as a trader, or you can play the entire game as a mercenary or as a pirate (which is alot of fun).. or, if you've got the time, you can change your ways at anytime (but it'll take time for the factions to believe you're not gonna raid their cargo or whatever) The Online community added quite a bit, and expanded the universe tremendously. If it wasn't for Dom2, I'd probably be flying through space right now on my way to deliver a large shipment of cargo.
