At the moment I'm in the middle of Xiii, whilst playing NOLF2 on the side.
I'm itching to install System Shock 2, but if I do I won't pay it due attention so I'll finish up the other two first.

Is that a new game or another remix type thingy? And is it any good?

all pc:

GTA3 - addictive as crack, maybe more so, i don't know

Hidden and Dangerous 2 - Basically a FPS with 4 team members that you can cycle through. Its touted as tactical and strategic and can be played that way but is a lot more work. I'm about half way through at the moment and its just got really boring.

KOTOR - Excellent but i seem to be ignoring it at the moment.

IL2 Sturmovik. - Picked this up recently. Very nice combat flight sim.

New game. Its 2003, so it won't be included in the official MAME any time soon. Its more of the same, though.... not too many new ideas. Some new slugs, a bunch of new enemies, but gameplay is more or less the same (i.e. fun, but frustrating!). I'd say its much better than 3, and almost as good as 2/X.

KOTOR --- Took me a while to get into this. Found it boring enough until I got of Taris, its worth the time it takes to get into it though. (PC)

Warcraft 3 --- I will finish this on Hard Difficulty, oh yes I will!! (PC)

Return of the King --- Great fun in Co-Op with the bro. Only the Path of the Hobbits to complete --- (Cube)

Viewtiful Joe --- On to level 5 but have neglected this for a while --- (Cube)

BF1942 Secret Weapons--- Have a Lan in the house steals an evening ever now and them. Love campagin mode. Planes rule!! (PC)

Need for Speed - Underground --- For the buzz!!! (PC)

Would like to get Warcraft3 The Froze Throne and also have System Shock 2 to try as well.

So many games and so little time. A good complaint really.

Broken Sword - The Sleeping Dragon (Absolutely love it, it's one of those games that you pick up, play for what feels like and hour and it's suddenly 3am)

Crimsom Skies (Exclusively on Xbox Live, haven't even touched the single player)

Rainbox Six III (Same as Crimsom Skies)

Toe Jam and Earl III (A much overlooked platformer that has a real sense of humour)

Animal Crossing (I'm never ever going to escape it, I realise this now).

Loads of different PC Engine shoot-em-ups on my GP32.

Is PNO3 worth getting? I've seen it in the GAME sale and it looks good, but I've heard mixed things about it.

Super furry, i got PN03 int he sale too, and for the cut price, its definitely worth it. I wouldnt have paid 60 quid for it, but at 21 euro its a steal. Good game, if you like old skool shoot em ups youll love it.
Anywho, my list:

PN03
Soul calibur 2
Manhunt
Max payne 2 (PC)
Deus ex 2 demo (PC)

Must try Kotor again..still on taris..soooo boringgggggg

currently EVE Online is taking up most of my waking hours, which is both bad and good in equal measures.

I am also stuck in the final phase of FFTA but keep getting my ass kicked by Llednar and him uber attack Omega.

unfortunatly just about all other games are on hold as my very first case of addiction to an mmorpg takes hold.
