I need a good game that I can play casually (1-2 hours a day).
I'm a big fan of RTS, strategy, action, and simulation games. I like wartime FPS's. Any good games out there for me? |

Medal of Honor: Airborne, is a a good WWII shooter.
If you're PC is up to it, then Crysis and Crysis: Warhead, are both great games.
Frontlines: Fuel or War, was a surprisingly good shooter. Well worth a download. |

Battlefield 2142 is a multi-player FPS. There's a couple good servers here in Korea that I play on. It's a pretty cheap game now ($30). It's an FPS with good tactical elements. YOu can even play as the commander if you want and send orders and supplies to the other players on the map. |

haven't played it myself yet, but some pretty mixed reviews from members of another forum I frequent. |

Spore was great until I got to the part to design my buildings. I really didn't want to take the time to put together my city hall. There wasn't even a button to randomly generate premade buildings. |

I totally agree about spore, it first 3 stages are sweet, stage 2 is still the best for me. Does anyone know where I can get a copy of Warhammer online? I know play asia has it but they are sold out atm.
As far as a good game, I like Team Fortress 2 on steam. |

If you are a fan of the beautiful game, Pro Evolution Soccer is a fantastic game. You also have the option to play online against other people - although for me this normally means getting beaten by at least 6 goals. Altetnatively, if you can read Korean and have a valid ID, I believe FIFA Online is free. |

Hey, what's your name on 2142?
I play regularly as -CDN- Incognito84 on the Korean servers. Great game. Very steep learning curve, but ultimately very satisfying. Nothing like being able to rig a jeep with explosives and use it to blow up an enemy vehicle! |

I recently went through Mass Effect. Definitely an awesome game once you get into it. |

Seconded, and playing it through twice is very worthwhile. The first time I went through I achieved a maximum level of "Paragon", which reflects just and noble actions in the game world. This time I'm making decisions that make me a "Renegade" (bad guy). Either course affects the outcome of the game as well as the progression of the story.
Great game. |

Just finished it as well. Enjoyed it a lot. Thinking about going back and playing it dark side as well. |
