Currently loving replaying the old Baldurs Gate games on the iPad too!

Those games are classics. Half Life is probably the only game where I played it every single day until I completed it - I didn't miss a beat. That could have been down to having more time, but it was seminal in my opinion.

StarCraft - the ultimate strategy game


Half life and Half Life 2 - perfect single player FPS. I could have gone on playing HL2 single player indefinitely if the story line hadn't ended.


World of Tanks - Best MMO out there. Been playing for 3 years and it still hasn't got old.

You'll be pleased to hear a fan is developing a re-work of Half Life, so good that I think Valve have endorsed it, I'll see if I can find the details...

i've been catching up on games i didnt get around to when they were released. just finished red dead redemption. just starting dead space. when i finish that i might get gta5.
i enjoyed red dead redemption. it started poorly and the map is rubbish but overall i enjoyed it.
dead space has been good so far. the controls are rubbish though. the map is poor on this also but having said that it isnt really needed as there seems to be no reason to steer away from the route you need to be on.

My Favourite games are Resident Evil 4. Tomb Raider a Survivor is Born, All the Uncharted and last but not least The Last of Us

I am on a destroy The asteroids section in chapter 4 of dead space and it is impossible. So glad I only paid £4 for it as I think I may give up.

Quake 1
World of Warcraft

I struggled with this on PS3 a few years ago. Try turning your screen brightness up - that helped me.

thanks, i will give that a try. one thing that causes a problem is you cant adjust the aim sensitivity like you can on most games. i always find reducing it helps but you cant on this, so it flies across the screen at the slightest touch which makes it harder to aim.

I am trying to catch up on games that I have on Steam, but have not yet played, but every year I add a few more! I think I have about 25 unplayed games to get through now and one of them is GTA V!!
