Wasn't on GoG.
Well, if you do get RCT 3 make sure you get the patch that allows you to enable RCT1/2 physics so you can import your custom tracks. Otherwise they won't behave properly.

Unfortunately, even after they made that optional fix, RCT 3's campaign wasn't playable. I was used to having the option to charge a huge entry fee to the park and make all the rides free. They take that option away from you in RCT 3... D'oh! The only real cool thing is being able to view the roller-coaster you design in first person 3D graphics.

I've heard of them planning the release of a 4th installment and Atari actually asked customers what they thought would make them go out and buy it on the spot, and any must have features. Like 99% of people were concurrent on the grid removal. Were they actually to release one with that and some of the other features people had come up with that would be quite sweet, however, it appears that 4 is more or less going to exist as Rollercoaster Tycoon 3DS which is going to be supposedly exclusive. Non-PC? Seriously? What the fuck.

Hopefully, they have a real #4 in the making or are actually planning on releasing the new one for PC.

Hell yeah, I want RCT3, but I have so many other 'new' games and so many coming... my god.

I have a shit ton from GoG yet to play, DLC for games on the 360 I bought while on sale, but haven't played yet cause I haven't got back to the game yet. Fable III currently, as I just got from Gamefly Yesterday, need to finish SEVERAL others. Some I just have shit I want to do it in, but the game is beat, for instance, Assassin's Creed 1, I want to go back and collect all the flags, I did some of it recently, but I want to finish it and replay the game sometime soon too.

Other games, I got stuff I'd like to do in them, but don't want to at all. Like Borderlands, I played the shit out of the DLC on playthrough 1 and shit, but never finished playthrough 2 (of the actual game, not just dlc) and any time I think about playing it at all I simply can't stand the thought of it. lol. I over-played it. :P

It works fine for me. I got it through Steam, so that may be an issue. You can probably set it to play in XP mode though and it might work better.

I've only got 4, and from what I read...It doesn't make a difference. But 64bit is causing me issues. Soooo many games I cannot play because of it. Half the time, it won't even let me install them! Either way, I do need a clean start...considering when I got this laptop...it was not a new install. - It was my sisters computer, and everything of hers was still on it. =)

I got Star Wars Old Republic for Christmas so I am on that now for at least 3 months. Then I will decide if I want to cough up my own cash to keep playing. Not too bad as far as RPGs go. I don't get much of a sense of urgency or real accomplishment for quests, though after 4 days I am still in the prologue. Visually its pretty weak. I know its an MMO and so it cuts down on the graphics to ensure better playability but a little texture and shading would be nice. It looks like NWN 2 on low settings. I'll post more about it later If anyone is interested.

We prefer "WoW 2.0 w/ Star Wars theme" :P

I'll put it this way.

Warhammer Online has better graphics.

And supposedly some of the EA Mythic peeps helped the Bioware team.

Two Worlds II/ Modern Warfare 3

Just like the first Two Worlds everybody had to tell me about how much it sucked, and just like the first Two Worlds I'm loving the shit out of the second one.

Modern Warfare 3 campaign... meh.

But I am pleasantly surprised... a lot of the modes and things you can do are reminding me very much of the original Ghost Recon which... is a very good thing by the way. :)

heheh yes I'm playing with a few mods.  Nighttime mod, water mod, Tree and floral mod.  Don't think I'm going to install full texture replacements. 

Anyway, the graphics are very nice, I'm not complaining.  Not state of the art, but I have a 5 year old system already.  I haven't fast traveled anywhere lol. Yes I'm hardcore, I walk and ride back and forth.

How is Kingdoms? Got mediocre reviews.  All saying that the story sucks but the action and everything else is very fun.  I think it's something I will want to check out if I ever get out of Skyrim.

Soon anticipating, both those as well.

I really enjoyed Kingdom. The story was good in my opinion. But I'm a huge fan of the writer.

So far I got mixed feelings about it. I am, for whatever reason, addicted to Sims 3 and thus my attention has been divided between the two and life keeps getting in the way as well... lol.

I see mixed elements from multiple titles clearly evident in Kingdoms. For certain I can say that locks and wards are ridiculous and the method by which you open locked or warded chests is simplistic, boring, and utterly disappointing. Of course, this is after having played Oblivion and Two Worlds II, where the lockpicking minigame in each is actually pretty cool.

I tried the CB of Tera last weekend, It feels like a real time Aion, you have a crosshair and you attack with the left mouse button and can dodge/block attacks with the right mouse besides the usual skills on quickslots.

Its actually a good game but I dont know if I will get it because Im also in the CB of Continent of the Ninth (C9), which is also real time action with combos and stuff but much more fast paced, though C9 will be free2play and like 90% of the time they turn to pay2win and i stop playing them :o

Put a fucking shit-ton of hours into Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. About 170 at least and still have two whole regions left. Did over 200 quests. Took a break from that, and been playing the Blackguard mods for Neverwinter Nights, about my third time playing these ones. Great mods. Learned about a game called Terraria which was enough to finally get me to make a Steam account, following which got addicted to the little pointless fucker and can't stop playing it. I recommend this bitch! It's 10 fucking dollars and will consume your life, which is great. Also playing a little Trine here and there, which is a sweet little side-scroller I bought off of GOG.com. Go there. Do it.

:P

Well, I see my last post to this thread was on October 28, 2011. It may have something to do with Saints Row: The Third being released on November 15, 2011.

Throbble and I were up until 1am this morning playing it.
