That was a stunt unfortunately. I've definitely had monks single handedly wipe 72 man raids before though /sigh. Eve probably does take the cake with all the scamming

In a twist ending, it quickly transpires that the game's narrator (David Ogden Stiers), was really Belhifet, who spent a mandatory century of imprisonment at the hands of the adventurers that is now close to end, and that he will soon walk the Prime Material once more to seek his revenge.

I agree. While ME2 was more polished and a better shooter I was really disappointed that theygot rid of many of the rpg features.
I'd agree with ME not being on a top 10 list. Top 20 sure but I didn't love it as much as others seem too

I remember being blown away by the original Deus Ex. IMO it's a top 5 all time PC game.

Listen, I totally get the whole 'first game is better than the acclaimed sequel' thing. Arkham Asylum is still the best Batman game, right.

But.

Portal 2 is so much better than Portal. Like, in every possible way. It makes Portal look like a tech demo.

Portal 2 was better because it was so much longer, had more to do and added the gel elements to make the puzzles more comples but the first game was such a breath of fresh air and was much much funnier. Even the end credits were entertaining. Wheatley was kind of annoying. I bought the Orange Box for Half Life 2 and was pleasantly surprised to get that game as a bonus.

Come on, Wheatley was hilarious.

I was mostly a console gamer up until 2010, but there are a few PC games that I really loved and in the case of the two MMORPG's in my list, spent entirely way too much time on.

Warcraft III (2002?)
Mass Effect 1 (2007)
The Witcher 1 (2007)
Freelancer (2003)
Lineage 2 (2004)
Aion (2008/09?)

And don't forget Cave Johnson - the greatest off-screen video game character of all time.

Wow, you're right, can't believe I forgot about Cave Johnson. I might have to play that game again.

Warcraft III
Star Wars: Jedi Outcast
Star Wars: Jedi Academy
Star Trek Armada II
Star Trek: Elite Force
(pure, glorious fanwank)
Civ IV
World of Warcraft (I played for like five minutes, but just didn't have the time as my university career was going full steam ahead. an hour or two on the weekends took me nowhere.)

And then the sun set on my PC gaming years; I moved mostly to consoles in about 2006, as I found them to be more casual and easy to pick up and play for an hour.

Yeah, I'm definately taking a break before my next computer games list to do the jerks of computer games list this weekend.

Some of the things that are done either reflect sheer awesomeness, or complete psychopaths with pass words.
