I'm abysmal at FPS games as a whole, but I like Rogue Spear because it gives me palpitations and the occasional bout of incontinence. I just picked up Unreal Tournament, and I kick ass on the single-player Novice level. No one can touch me. As far as RPGs go, I'm about 20 hours into Torment. I love the atmosphere and humor of that world.
Few games offer tangible rewards for being disemboweled.
My most recent purchase is The Sims. My current Sim is a complete loser, but the indemnity from the stolen TV helped pay for a spacious living room addition. I also just put new tile in the bathroom, so Gary now spends more time washing his hands. If things don't improve, I'll have to stick a fork in him. I have a B.A. in English from Bates College and an M.A. in Modern Drama from University College Dublin.
