Is System Shock 2 fun?
I'm playing:

The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor
FIFA 15
Red Faction: Guerrilla
One Finger Death Punch
<span class="bold">Lula 3D</span>

I found this spicy gem on one of my magazine DVDs. It's lewd, trashy, silly... and i enjoy playing this shitty game. :D

If you like 3D adventures you must try this one... ;)
I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream

Continued playing this yesterday. I just entered the last chapter, occasionally using a walkthrough if I get seriously stuck.

I kinda dislike how this game sometimes seems to be about experimenting for the correct/best solution. Like certain person, whether she goes to heaven or hell, seems to depend on one dialog option with another character. Then again, if you don't select that option, then I feel you'll miss one important hint for the game.

Overall though, it seems you usually select the correct solution if you try to do the right thing. Like, you get a chance to commit adultery (twice even)... don't do it, apparently. Or, you are promised to reach safety if you sacrifice another person... don't do it, try to find another solution.

Then again, it also seems you can sometimes reach the end of the chapter with immoral decisions as well, so it isn't so clear cut. But I presume you are supposed to try to do the right things.

The story seems quite complicated and... odd.

Here's a clip from back in the day with the author / creator.

I've read a bunch of his stuff and I understand why he decided to implement certain mechaics into the game.

It is very fun, if you liked Bioshock's mechanics, it is almost exactly the same
Diablo 2 LOD
Finally got to ACT 3, didn't realized the last part of ACT 2 would take so long to complete.

Caves of Qud
A very good roguelike, really enjoyed playing it. Going to start another game of it soon.

Unreal Tournament 4
It's sadly not working that well at all on my computer at this point, there's so many artifacts and broken bloom effects everywhere on the new test builds that it's hard to play and just to look at :(

Ah I see, thanks!
Man. Too much hopping from game to game again. =/ Think I'll be strictly playing this one for a bit though...

Shovel Knight. Should have bought that one much sooner. I'm really having a good time with that one. It's really the best of both worlds: classic-style gameplay with modern sensibilities. Its great presentation definitely helps as well. :)
Right now I'm play Nexus and I'm still stuck on the last mission in Hotline Miami I cant seem to kill the boss. I also have Terraria installed and am going to play it next after Nexus.
Right now it's difficult to find time to play. Was on a business trip from sunday noon to wednesday noon, then had to do a full day work, staying in the office till 2000. Thursday I was in the office from 7 to 20. It's only yesterday I could find some time for me after 1700... and mind you, sitting in front of computer that wasn't.

Currently ongoing games of Dragonfall, Cosmonautica and Rome Total War II
Well, my death in my newly restarted Diablo 2 Lod Ladder Battlenet, stopped me only temporarily. I rerolled another character, hardcore once again, made my basic mid game runewords and am about to finish nightmare already! I cannot get drops of good grand charms that raise skill trees, though... :(

Maybe i will ask someone to kill Baal for me, so i can get to a certain place in act 1 hell, which can be farmed for dropping any item in game's code...
MgsV - awesome game, Hideo Kojima never dissapointed me. 60h played, 30%done, so far everything on S rank. Its a very looong game.

I tried System Shock 2 for the first time a little while ago having never played it before. I wasn't overly impressed. I think it could benefit from having played it when it was shiney and new released, like Deus Ex. And when you only had a couple of games. Like jumping into Deus Ex now, it might feel a little old. Unlike Deus Ex I had no nostalgia with it.

Not to say it's a bad game at all, it's very good with a lot of choice and freedom in gameplay. I can definitely see why it's so well thought of, but it hasn't compelled me to finish it yet.
