On the otherhand, KOTOR kept me entertained. Though not without its
flaws, it's still manages to engage me. The biggest disappointment was
that it finally ended and -sadly- the KOTOR2 fan-patch hasn't been
released yet.

I bought KotOR when it first came out but had no end of problems getting
it to run so I finally traded it to a friend. I should probably see if I
can get this game again as my current PC should have no problem with it.
I hope there's a DVD version now.


What have you been playing ... IN FEBRUARY?

Lord of the Rings Online (MMO) - I have fancy new clothes now. :p

Crysis - I wasted so much time trying to get the perfect starting run.
Then I decided to just keep going and have made it farther in the last
two weeks than in the first two months I owned the game. I tend to only
play this one later at night for a half hour or so, so I'm not even
halfway done. I still like it very much. The suit controls are now
second nature.

Medieval 2 Total War - Bwa ha ha! My English empire controls western
Europe and all the known seas and oceans. I left the Papal State alone
(with an army standing by if needed) but command all of Italy, Spain,
the former HRE and am well nested in Jerusalem. The only threat to me at
present seems to be the Mongols. Love this game.

COD4 - Fun, fast, quick. After I finally finish Crysis I plan to try
some COD4 online play.

Thanks for the monthly roundup, Spalls.
