Recently, I've been playing "American McGee's Scrapland",

It's a very fun adventure game, reminds me of Grim Fandango but not as straight forward, and more futuristic. I've also been playing NBA Live 06, NFS:MW and Morrowind. :)

I'm probably the slowest buddy in this forum...
<<I've just bought Halflife 2. So that's what I'm struggeling with.>>

Edit: I'm also a mapper for Duke 3d. So I play some usermaps at daily bases.
Currently am I playing my own *map in construction*---

F.E.A.R. is the last game I played recently. It's ironic -- I was in the first multiplayer beta for F.E.A.R. back when they only had 3000 keys or something on Fileplanet, and I played it so much that when the final game came out I didn't even want to touch it :)

Of course, I did, and I was a bit dissapointed -- though, the ending was effin' incredible.

I still live in those terrible days... :)
I have a bunch of DX 8.1 games, and some DX9 games...
Can't wait to see all the stuff i couldn't see before when i get a new PC...

I wonder what DX8 effects AVP2 has... I can't see the big differences from my version, and all the screenshots around the internet... B)

Most anything that's playable on 98 will run on XP. Every now and again you'll run into a game that doesn't, and you'll want to change the compatability mode to 98. The easiest way to do this is as follows:

Right click game shortcut > Properties > Compatibility tab > select "Run this program in compatibility mode for [choose OS].

Doesn't always fix things, but it's worth a try. Why not download the demo via fileplanet - if that runs, you'll know the full game will B)

The lack of active servers is one problem with this great mod, but the lack of players is even worse... B)

It is Multiplayer only, but it changes ALOT...
When you try it first time, you may be sceptic, that some weapons were removed, but the mod is great Gameplay wise and not really content wise...
Here's some of the gameplay changes:
- Aliens can "knock down" Predators and Humans, so that they fall backwards, and have to lift thier bodies (meanwhile, it gives you time to kill them if they ain't fast enough)
- Weapons are tweaked, and work WAY more realistic, and wre nicer to use imo... Marines have the standard puslerifle, with 95 Ammo, and grenades... While Corps have a similar looking Pulserifle (different colors) but it sounds very different, and it has 60 bullets per mag... And a shotgun attached, instead of grenade launcher...
- Balance on whatever type of character you choose is very good For instance, Corps are better against Predators, while Marines are better against Aliens...
- Predator's vision modes alter after which class you choose (Warriors and Striker has the vision modes form AVP movie, while Rookie and Hunter has the regular IR Thermal vision and electro vision)
- Any predator class has it's own kind of Shoulder cannon...
- Marine/Corps Rifleman class can carry frag grenades, which are thrown instead of flares... and Flamer classes have Incendary Grenades... (VERY cool)
---

There is simply too much to explain here, it has to be tried out, or shown by someone before you can see what makes it so different...
I'd recomend it to anyone wanting a more realistic AvP2 MP experience... (not too realistic though) There's a lack of servers and players at times, so i'd like more people to have this mod...

You could call this post some kind of Advertising... :)

I'm playing F.e.a.r. mainly right now. I'm on interval 03. I played through a few levels of Blood yesterday, and I'm still working on Far Cry. :) I'm also working with build on my user level.

I'm not really playing anything at the moment. Some time ago I've been playing certain levels of FarCry. I played DooM1 recently just to remind myself of old times. While this is my last year at school I think I'll start with some newer games after successful end and also after upgrading my rig.

I've been playing AVP2 Multiplayer with the AJL mod...

I can't wait to try out FEAR, BF2, and other great games... These two particular games are the most recent ones, and they don't work on my current PC...
I'm really excited to try out my upcoming new PC and try them out finally...

Still waiting for my new PC to play any of the mentioned games... :)
The most recent i played, was Resident Evil 4 for the Cube... I had two (german) friends for a short visit today (they're girls btw, and funny ones too) one of them absolutely wanted to see the game, so i showed it to her... B)
Nothing special since i didn't try to proceed in the game, just the first boss fight, to give a good impression of the game... B)
