    Oh sorry, I meant Murraynt!

    Hmm, have you played Borderlands!? Good fun with a mate!

    As far as Metro goes, I've played about 4 hours of the game and it seems good and worth playing, but I don't know if I'd want to pay full price for it!

    Have you tried Dragon Age Origin's and Awakening? If you're into single player RPG's I'd consider it unmissable, easily one of my favourite games.

    Ha Ha! :D

    Yup, Metro 2033 is probably the most demanding DX11 game out at the moment - even my rig struggled at points. Mind you, that was with the 197 drivers - the new drivers are far smoother.

    I need to try Dragon Ages again. I played it once and then never went back to it.

    If you're thinking of Metro get Singularity.


    It's better in just about every way. It should be a big ticket Activision game, but they didn't market it because they couldn't make a sequel out of it. I wouldn't touch Bioshock2 or Borderlands, they both suck...

    I really liked borderlands , bioshock2 though was a really dissapoiniting lazy follow up and it still really gets me that after six months 2k still haven't fixed the vending machine sounds grrrr! - I would say that Metro is a good game with some flaws......

    I know it doesn't say anything about the game itself, but the novel that Metro 2033 is based on is really really good, well worth reading if you like the game.

    Hi. No-one has mentioned 'Stalker - Call of Pripyat'. I really enjoyed it.

    As an aside, 'Metro 2033' was created by 4A Games which was founded by people who split off from GSC Game World (studio which created S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl) a year before the original stalker came out.
