I got a couple of games yesterday :D and I thought I'd share my views on them:
Morrowind:
Kind of frustrating at times because its so damn slow and the damn loading time after you die/revert to last save is so long I almost had time to go for a sheet...... but the whole pikey thing is genius like: in this armor shop this guy serving me wouldn't let me have a real good bow for 1 gold ;) so I shot him with my crappy bow and grabbed something like a pikey and did a runner :D its pretty good fighting but when you keep missing its annoying but smacking a guard around the face with a axe then running is hilarious. has its good and bad points and its a ok game.
Phantom crash:
pretty darn fun I like machine guns and then hold down the back trigger button(s) and pump some lead :) the only bad thing is the absolute crap they talk and the amount of reading you have to do before you start, tis very fun mix of anime and heavily armed robots. Does get repetitive sometimes with all you do is shoot and read but is fun in short bursts. good game.
Just thought I'd share my point of view :)

Morrowind's about as entertaining as contracting leprosy and then realising that your nob has dropped off and you've left it round your girlfriends house.
It's funny, I'm sure you used to like Ghost Recon Ali...

You poor sod. I would rather play my testiles like a violin rather than enjure the painful gameplay in Ghost Recon. You should have saved up and gone for Freedom Fighters (or bought my copy off EBay).

Is the multiplayer any good?
I'm after it for Live mostly.

Now I've got both. Both are great. Island Thunder the more polished(and with better levels) but less single player missions.
In a nutshell. Both great though.

In a nutshell. Both great though.
got morrowind, haven't really given it a chance, too laid back.
might just sell it instead. might not

Yeah, I fancy it. More likely to get the new one though.
