Ho shit, so recently I've been indulging in something I quit for a few years: Games.... its sorta like a fat kid going back to the sugar after dieting for so long.

But far out, is there anything worth getting into?

I bought Divinity II on x-box, apart from making me feel sick; it's fun turning into a Dragon and killing everything (when they let you -.-)

Though yeah, anyone have any recommendations?

I haven't been disappointed by anything Steam releases.

Particularly a fan of the Left 4 Dead series.

:lol: Its the whole new age craze, actually I think someone should make a game based on all this new age bs, the aim is to revert everyone to their old ways.

I've only played that like once ages ago, it was hilarious fun; Hmm I guess I should get some multiplayer games incase people come over :P

Been hearing craze over Star craft II, is that even worth it ? I didn't really like the original

It's the same thing as the original with better storytelling but a crappier story to tell.  The didn't deviate because (1) they didn't want to alienate the hardcore fans and (2) Blizzard is now owned by Activision and any drive they once had toward a quality product has been replaced by a drive to higher profit margin.

Lately I've been playing Disgaea and Megaman X8.  They're both really bad, but in a way that appeals to me.

I'd avoid them if I were someone with any real taste or discernment.

Currently I'm replaying through Saints Row 2, just because it is completely ridiculous and fun.

Also, Team Fortress 2 is pretty good, if you like multiplayer FPSs
It's not trolling, it's just satire.

Anything by Valve is good, they really care about the quality of their product.
If you're into RPGs, Fallout 3 is pretty good fun. It's bleak and depressing until you turn on the radio and go around shooting up radioactive mutants to jolly quasi-racist tunes from the 1950s.
Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines is another good RPG. It was released in 2004, so it has nothing to do with any of that Twilight garbage, though there is a bit of an influence from Anne Rice. All that goes out the window when you play as a Malkavian, though. Imagine if Deadpool was a vampire. That's pretty much what a Malkavian is. Also, if you get the heavy armor, you can run around  in a fluffy white fur coat and cat-in-the-hat hat beating people up with a severed arm.

I'm going to second Left 4 Dead. It really is a fun game. Left 4 Dead 2 is closer to an expansion pack than a sequel, so I don't know if you'd want to get it or not. I hear that it's much more of a complete game than the first, but I have L4D1 so if you get 2 you can't play with me :'(

If you're computer can pull it, get Starcraft 2!

If it can't...well, kick it old school and get the original Starcraft.

Holy crap, I had no idea Blizzard was part of Activision now.  But it makes sense considering how shitty their newest products have been.  Now I'm even more afraid to see how Diablo III is going to turn out.
