    I've been really enjoying Team Fortress 2 lately. It took me a while not to completely suck at it, but now that I'm actually decent at it it is a lot of fun. My only problem with it is that it crashes constantly, especially on certain maps, or when changing maps, which makes it difficult to play for any long period of time.

    Waiting anxiously for new STALKER in 2012 and going back home to the Zone! Maybe even a new Half-Life. Hope they bring back Gordon and dump Alyxx but I heard it's going to be another scientist from Black Mesa. Then there's another Metro and maybe by then MW3 will be cheap by then...Oh, and Mass Effect 3 and some other goodies coming out..

    For me the most hours I have put into a game has to be Team Fortress 2 and World of Warcraft, those two alone I much have over 1000 hours logged easily, Probably more, I have recently got into Battlefield 3 and that is overtaking my TF2 addiction at the moment. Left 4 Dead 2 I have about 300 hours on which I didn't realise until just now. Also note worthy games I've played which I enjoyed every last second is the Half-Life series and the orginal Crysis, If your into your Stragity games the Orginal Supreme Commander and Forged Aliance pack were very good, but the ultimate one for me was Company of heros where I appear to have over 400 hours logged.

    Anything made by Valve are among my favorite.

    I also love Minecraft and Skyrim.

    Fallout 3 and New Vegas became my top 1 favorite games after finishing them. :D

    Dead Space 1 and 2 are probably my top 2 and 3.

    I bet Skyrim will replace Fallout 3 and New Vegas once I get the game :D

    Have you played any of the DLC add ons to New Vegas? I played Dead Money, Old World Blues, just finished Lonesome Highway and am getting ready to start the Honest Hearts.

    After that it's back to Fallout 3 and the DLC add ons for it....

    I played Dead Space 1 and really liked it. I have Dead Space 2 but haven't started it yet.

    I looked at Skyrim, but for the most part I don't care all that much for the Medieval/Swords and Sorcery/Dungeons and Dragons types of games. I'm more of a post-apocalyptic, futuristic, science fantasy based game fan. I'm looking forward to Mass Effect 3, the new Metro, and the promised new STALKER game for 2012.

    In the vein of the Fallout games with a destroyed world and society trying to re-establish itself in the wreckage, I have been seriously looking at Rage. Anybody have any opinions about it?

    I would have to say Supreme Commander 2

    Favorite PC Game?

    I'm into combat flight sims, although I also like 1st person shooters.

    Rise of Flight is by far my favorite!!! Nothing else is even close!

    Fallout 3 and fallout new vegas. I play them on Xbox. I completed fallout 3 and I am re-playing it again. I really like it. One of the few games I have played a second time.

    Tough question, but I guess my favourite game of all time is Crysis 1. The amount of fun I had with the AI back then was insane and the graphics (especially with Real Lifesis) still hold their own against Witcher 2, Crysis 2 and BF3.
    Also PowerStruggle in MP was pretty cool, with expansive maps and cool vehicles.

    If I were to categorise by genre, my favourite games would be:
    FPS: CS:Source
    Notable mention: FEAR1 & 2
    RTS: C&C Generals ( + Zero Hour)
    Notable mention: Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor
    TBS: Sword of the Stars 1: Complete Edition ( 2 is in a deplorable state right now; might be good one day)
    RPG: TESV: Skyrim (previous one was Oblivion :p )
    The Witcher series is very good as well with more emphasis on the story than sidequests.
    Also worth checking out is the STALKER series, especially with ArtistPavel's Complete mods. Great story and terrific atmosphere.

    MMO: EVE Online
    I haven't checked out SW: The Old Republic yet, but I've heard it's pretty good.
    Not that I have anything against WoW, just not my cup of tea.

    Racing: Race Driver: GRiD
    Notable mention: DiRT3
    Space Sim: Freelancer
    For those looking for a more hardcore experience, there's X3.
    Combat Sim: ArmA 2: Combined Operations
    Notable mention: BF3
    Action/Adventure: GTAIV ( + EFLC)
    Notable mention: Assassin's Creed series
    Also the Dead Space series is very good, but not for those feint of heart as it features a lot of gore and dismemberment.

    I really like stealth games but there aren't many around these days. I'd say the Splinter Cell series is probably my favorite, though I enjoyed the Hitman and Thief titles too.
