I'm finally buying a new rig next week, and I've got 2-3 years of games to catch up. What would you say are the definite games released within the past 3 years? I play pretty much anything, except racing games and hardcore flight sims.
I've concluded the following to be must-haves:
NWN2 - MotW (I have NWN2)
Mass Effect (Any good?)
Bioshock (Fallout meets SS2, can't wait)
Medieval 2 - Total War (I played Shogun back in the day, has the concept changed?)
STALKER (Should I wait for Clear Sky?)
The Witcher (I've read good things about this game, is it worth getting?)
Oblivion w/ exps (Should be abled to get it cheap, I didn't really like Morrowing at all, has there improvement?)
Orange Box (Interested in Portal and TF2, I dig the art style)
Psychonauts
Lego Star Wars 1&2, Lego Indiana Jones
My new rig will be abled to run ANYTHING you throw at it, including Crysis on full details.
I'd appreciate any other recommendations, I've got a holiday coming and I intend to spend it sitting inside, the monitor being the only source of light I see for three weeks, girlfriend be damned! Help me ruin social life and move back home to my moms basement!
