I too loved Tomb Raider Legend, thought it was an absolute tour de force of a game. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Good thread & one I'll be back as I only buy my 360 games when they are cheap.
If you enjoyed that, try Prizefighter, finished the career last week and i really enjoyed it, a great laugh, and a good campaign along the lines of Fight Night 3.

You should be able to pick that up cheap as well.

Ill also like to pimp quantum of solace, while it will get overlooked just now with all the great games out, grab it when its cheaper, uses the COD4 engine, and plays a fantastic game.

I'd have to say System Shock 2, on the PC.
Incredibly atmospheric, especially given the technical constraints of PC's when it was released.

and

Syndicate, on the Amiga.
Addictive? You bet your ass it was.

Syndicate on the Amiga was one of my favourite games ever!

I remember the level where you're supposed to kill some guy who was driven in a car along a specific route. He was some sort of famous person as there were loads of spectators lining the route. I really liked all the different ways you could achieve your mission goal, that and the weapons - remember the flamethrower and the gauss gun?

My all time favorite game was Alter Ego on the C64.

Its been translated to be a web game now, and its just as great as it ever was, its a life simulator, and got the highest score on Zzap 64, 98% i think it was.

Try it out for yourself, ill give you a hint though, watch out if you run into the paedophile, your life might not be a long one.

"Backlash" on the Amiga written by a guy called Paul Woakes (who did the Mercenary series on the Amiga and ST).

I should have that today as I'm reviewing it for a website, sounds promising if you're comparing it to FN3

If you own a DS and haven't played Phantom hourglass yet, you're a fool.
