When I got the MOH 10th Anniversary Pack, the discs were layed out that Breakthrough was first, so I did that one, and completed it a few weeks ago. Now I'm on Spearhead, and I like that in both versions, you get to use the heavy weapons like the flaks and mortars and AA guns. But yes Spearhead is HARD.

Spearhead was the first one released, and yes it's very hard. I never did beat it myself.

A fully developed Gearbox Duke Nukem game will kickass. Forever wasn't bad, you can certainly do worse.

I'm trying to get into Arx Fatalis. Isn't bad but kind of clunky. I got Arx Libertatis (source port) which does make it run a bit better in Win7, but it's still kind of messing up with weird issues and stuff... jumping is weird, sometimes I randomly speed up or teleport across the room. Any success stories on playing this one on newer systems?

Finished Spearhead. Had no idea Gary Oldman voiced Sgt. Barnes!

On to MOH Pacific Assault -- the graphics engine is much nicer than the old Quake III one they used.

Got an OXbox? That might be the best bet...

So I just finished Deus Ex:HR, and I gotta say all the endings were pretty stupid. It was a fun game but just seems really lazy to just say ok press a button to pick your ending. So glad a had saved a praxis point to use on the electricity shielding for that last boss fight I can't imagine trying to dodge three electric floor.

Time to finish dishonored now I guess since I am on the last level and all.

I wish I had that option available for the second boss. That fight took me so many reloads. Last boss was pretty easy since I kept the laser rifle which can shoot through the glass, so the fight was over in a minute.

I'm pretty sure I got almost every praxis point available. I always bought out the limb clinics and did every side mission but half the time didn't even feel like I needed to upgrade anything. It was funny because I was loading right at the beginning of the last boss fight and hadn't upgraded the EMP/electric shielding so I'd EMP grenade the turrets and kill the three computer things then die when the floor was electrified because I forgot to upgrade.

I also just finished Dishonored. Definitely my goty, such a great game. It was a little on the short side but I just want to start a new game after finishing it.
The story really sucked me in. I actually wanted revenge and to kill the people that had wronged me. After the betrayal half way through the game I went on a killing spree after playing very conservatively and only knocking people out. I still got the low chaos ending though.
I want to see the high chaos ending then I'm going to go through the game and see if there is a no chaos ending.

There are 2.5 endings. Low chaos and two forms of high chaos, depending on a choice you make at the very end of the high chaos playthrough.
