I'm sure it's not a bad game, but still...not my style.
Zombies ate my Neighbours was great fun...not really a zombie game exclusively though, zombies were actually very small a part of it. Can't wait to get myself a copy on the WII.

One I've wantrd to play for some time now is "Bad Day LA", another game from American McGee, who gave us "Alice"...most of his games seem pretty creative (spal loved scrapland, I was down with Alice), and in a "world of their own"...and this one just looks psycho, and fun, a little like "incredible crisis"
(if anyone at all remembers that) but a little deeper, and looks better too...there's a trailer up at
http://au.gamespot.com/pc/action/bad...toplay=6134296
check it out.

You can have fun and goof around if you want and make it more of a horror comedy game but you can also play it through as a tense, thrilling experience (but not too "arcadey" like Zombies Ate My Neighbors!). Anyway, I loved Dead Rising.

Blue Dragon, Dark Sector, Lost Planet, Cipher Complex, Crackdown, Def jam: Icon, Alan Wake, Mass Effect, Assassins Creed, Bioshock, Fable 2, Army of Two... I think all of those look promising.
I always got eaten by zombies because I'd always try to charge in the middle with a shovel or something. :o

Hooo.. Where to begin....


I need a new rig for everything i want (plus about a 500% increase in time.....)
Bioshock
Half-Life 2: Episode 2
Portal (Ships with Ep 2)
Enemy territory: Quake Wars. I wish they would do something in the vein of Quake 1, but the Strogg storyline from Q2 is great too...
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (Set in a radioactive wasteland around chernobyl, realisticly rendered from real-life locations)
Crysis (Screw any Far Cry sequals, this looks AMAZING)


Looks like 2007 is going to be an incredible year for PC Gaming. With Vista and DirectX 10, we are going to see some amazing things...

And with XNA, indie games are going to become a much bigger deal in the coming year (Comes with full DX9 support, and the 3.0 .net fgramework is coming, so get ready for Vista and DX10 support :D:D:D)
