Ready to race!
I am currently playing World of Warcraft (MMORPG) and love it; it's VERY addictive, especially if you're an RPG fan.

I dabble in UT2004 but haven't played since getting WoW. Can't wait for UT2007.

Games I will always have to play whenever I want:

Need for Speed series
F1 Challenge 99-02
Mobil 1 WRC
Richard Burns' Rally
Mercedes-Benz Truck Racing
Mercedes World Racing
GTR
GT Legends

I'd love to see a Le Mans game for PC, like 1995-2005.

Also, World Racing 2 is due out eventually (there's a demo) and it's based on the VW empire (VW, Lamborghini, Bugatti, Seat).

Yea, I agree, bit of a dry spell at the moment :frown: but I figure we have a good lineup on the horizon for this year....Unreal 2007, Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion, Enemy Territory: QUAKE Wars, Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter, Half Life 2 Aftermath. Right now, the BF2 Euro Forces exp pack is that is really keepin me going :iono:

How's NFS: Most Wanted? I'm looking for a decent racing game to switch it up .. Would've bought it @ Best Buy, but they didn't have it.

World of Warcraft: LvL 60 NE Rogue, Server Azshara. 3/4 month old server, currently running MC (@ Rag) and Ony (Farming).

Battlefield 2/Battlefield Special Forces: Don't play it as much, Karkand fan. And I suck @ flying the Chopper/Planes.

Counter-Strike 1.6: Occasionally when I'm bored -- Search me on Gametiger.com as "TRAUMAhead."

Rig:
2.x GHz Pentium 4, Asus Mobo.
1g of Ram.
ATI 9800 XT.
Audigy 2 Pro.
And some other stuff.

Its fun, albiet not all that realistic (knocking over light poles, bus stops, etc.), and fast. I enjoy it, but I only play single player. Playing online is a bit boring since everyone just uses the best car. I mostly just play with friends at LAN parties with friends. Not worth full price imho, but bargain bin ~$20-$30 I think it would be.

I play some PC games but I just built this a few months back so it's been taking most of my time.

Sorry it's so big, that's the only picture I had.

It has about 2,000 games

It's running on an old HP a friend gave me.

I built it all myself except the game controler which is an x-arcade model that plugs right into the PC. MAME32 works just like a video game. I have to push a button to add a coin and everything.

On my PC I just finished Half-Life 2 and I'd have to say it's my favorite. I also like Call of Duty 2.

Tribes 1. Deus Ex is a close second for me.

The sequal(s) to both those games were let downs.
