I finally got round to finishing Jak and Daxter - I'm playing Vexx until I can get a copy of Jak II. Unfortunately, after playing a game as good as Jak, Vexx just doesn't seem to cut it.
Deus Ex: Invisible War. I'm really enjoying the freedom to pick and choose which missions to undertake, which is quite rare for an FPS. The game does have some faults, such as being able to walk through public areas holding an SMG, and the guards not even batting an eyelid. You can also steal things from people right uner their nose and all they'll do is shout at you.
The biomodification system is fun though, and you soon become attached to your custom built character and the allegiance he/she chooses.

A. Because proper tea is theft.
They have a petition to make the movie here www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/signed.cgi?6331827 . The game is good, very gothic. If they don't make a movie, I hope they make another Alice game. I think there would be a renewed interest if they redid it. With the game engine's they have nowadays, it would be an awesome RPG.
Jak 2 is a fun platform game. They don't make them like they used to, a lot of them are more difficult than you'd think, like Ratchet and Clank.
The only thing certain is that nothing is certain.
Jak 2 is brilliant, I spent about a week playing it, got right near the end and then my brother wiped my save.
I didn't have the heart to go through the whole thing again, so I waited for months for him to do it. Then I took it off him where I left off and finished it.
My b.f. just lent me Morrowind...it's a little weird playing it on computer after getting used to the X-Box controls, but needless to say it's still a great game. Holy hell is it big though!!

Jak II just keeps getting better (btw - did anyone else spot the Ratchet & Clank billboards in Haven City?).
I'm almost 40% through, and a few things are confusing me:
Spoiler
-Where did all the Eco go? There's Dark Eco everywhere, but Green, Red, Blue, Yellow have gone - what happened?
-What happened to the Lurkers? Were they all wiped out when the Metal Heads came through the Rift? [Edit - forget this one, I came offline and started playing and the Lurkers were the first mission I got]
-If Haven City was built over the old areas, why have I never seen the Precursor Mountain before? I think I'd have noticed such a huge landmark.

LOL, your right Iryssa, it's a huge game. It's open-ended too, so the replay value is awesome. Your playing it on PC?? The graphics must be gorgeous. I just started playing this myself on xbox, I must say I am impressed. There is so much to do, so many different paths to take, I think I'll own this forever!

Yeah, I have heard that.
