Hmm. I love Half-Life 2 like the next guy, but for me, it’s hard to say if it really is the best game ever.

Yes, I bought it on launch day and lined up at Steam. But to this day, the damn game gives me a headache.

My criticisms aside, I find it hard to single out one game as the best ever because of my varied tastes at varied times.

You’ve tempted me to install it again, among with other games I have in my trunk. Hmm. Let’s see if I can find my old Battlefield 1942 in there.

Thanks dude…anymore piracy skills I can use? Anyway Call of Cthulhu DCoTE is pretty good. You should try it. Hair-raising atmosphere. Innovative use of graphics…an FPS with no HUD? Makes for an intuitive feel.

Just be aware that you have to do some other stuff if you’re using Windows XP to make System Shock 2 work.

Aside from downloading an updated EXE file for System Shock 2, I also added a line to the shock.cfg file that’s located in the directory where the game is installed.

Open shock.cfg with notepad, then add this line in the file:

safe_texture_manager

Once you do both, that game should run nicely.
