GTA: San Andreas - games don't grab me the way they used to, though that's more to do with me being easily distracted these days :oops:

Oh, and there's a special 'poll' for those who don't give a fudge ;)

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

It wouldn't be a poll without at least two options, PC Mugabe.

:P

I remember playing Marathon when we were quiet at work. It worked over our network, which meant we could work as a team. That's the last time I really got into a computer game, to be honest.

Carmageddon 2 did just that but Halo was the real problem. I went through a phase of playing it every day for about a year or so when that self-same Mac should have been used for work! That's why I have avoided buying an Xbox 360 to play Halo 2 and 3; it would be disastrous.

Anarchy Online... Haven't played any real games since 2007, apart from the odd browser game.

Yes KOTOR 2 was excellent. Must have played it a dozen times at least.
