Championship Manager 01/02 season with the latest data update. It's sad I'm playing a game that's now 10 years old however with the speed of computers these days I can whizz through a season within about 6 hours. The data updates I download are very detailed and up to date with the latest transfers and players.

I've tried all the newer version however personally I believe the series hit an all time high with Champ Manager 01/02 in terms of playability and simplicity. The newer versions are far too complicated.

Operation Flashpoint Red River... really enjoying it up to now. Bit of a flawed masterpiece in all honesty though, looks like they've used the AI code from the original game and the graphics are a bit crude. Feels like a blast from the past.

plus the ability to add managers and control your opposition, which means your can basically sell yourself all the best players for whatever price you want!!! :D:D:D

If you didn't have to wait ages time and time again on those cut scenes at the start and end of levels it would have been a lot better. When you do get past that the game is quite enjoyable though.

Yes it is, mainly due to the seemingly unlimited healing system so it's a bit more COD-like in difficulty curve terms. There's still the hardcore mode for those who want more challenge. The squad system and co-op is brilliant though although it doesn't quite reach the heady heights of GRAW/2.

With you on the cut scenes there peanut, it's a very frustrating bit of lazy coding that.

Killzone 3
Crysis 2

Both in 3D on my new 46" Samsung tv :) they look amazing in the third dimension.

I love driving games; but not track-based ones. Love the original "Need For Speed" series; ie not Shift, etc. Finished the latest, Hot Pursuit, a while ago but still keep going back to it.

My list for this year includes Portal 2, Mirror's Edge 2 and possibly Duke Nukem Forever.

Also love CounterStrike, but haven't played it in ages.

Not tried TDU2 yet? worth a try now they've sorted a lot of the early bugs out.

Tried the original but couldn't get into it. Might have a look at 2 at some point but not too bothered based on the original.
