Let me tell you a little secret…..

Fian-Skybreaker | November 16, 2006

…….I have discovered the joys of retro-gaming.

Due to the chronic lack of any decent MMO’s I recently dusted off my old copies of Baldur’s Gate 2 along with Fallout 1 and 2. Bloody hell, these were/are good games and suprisingly even the graphics have stood the test of time fairly well, but what stands out is the depth of the storyline, now where did I leave that copy of UFO: Enemy Unknown ?

    Oh yes, I also remember Deus Ex or System Shock 2 oh so well, and hence I have so high hopes for Bioshock that’s supposed to be coming next year…
