Other PC Games Thread.
So with the film and music threads still going and being discussed... why don't we get some discussion going on something on topic to the board? What other games are you playing now?

You could try a dating sim. 
Some Recommendations For Shambler: 
 
Have you played Bastion? 
Swapper Is Cool. 
But probably not for everyone tho. 
Natural Selection 2 
Have you tried that? It's amazing. 
 
The only one out of that batch that looks beyond a teenagers college project is The Swapper, that looks alright actually.

What about mods? I'm currently playing through the 100s of l4d2 mods, many of decent quality. Though not so great if you want something different because they're all the same. 
Hammerfight 
Very unique. Mouse is mandatory. Controls take a bit getting used to.

Not Sure If These Were Posted Yet. 
Terarria

2D minecraft, but with guns, epic bossfights and much more evil creatures. High on the kiddie-retro-pixel scale, great gameplay.

Teleglitch

Roguelike with a bit of a Quake base vibe.
High on the retro pixel scale. 
 
Sins of a Solar Empire: Space RTS
Sword of the Stars: 4X 
 
If there are any fans of RTCW and Wolfenstein here, then I recommend give Ubersoldier 1 and 2 a try. Even Wolfenstein 2009 copied the shield ability that the player's character have, and Burut should feel proud. 
Okay So... 
I should have specified 3D only...and definitely NO retro-pixel games. But...

Bastion - more RPG? Bit bright and cheerful for me.

Swapper - this looks kinda nice actually for a 2D thing. Might be tempted for the style alone.

Natural Selection - more FPS? MP only, no sale.

Hammerfight - sorry fighting games have no appeal.

Sins Of A Solar Empire - yes, forgot to mention, I bought that for my laptop. Any others in that style? 
 
it's a shame natural selection 2 is multiplayer only, because the graphics look pretty sweet. perhaps one day they can incorporate single player. 
Bastion 
Isn't a kids game, and is well written. The art does give it stupid fall off world through hole you didn't see syndrome though. Recommended. 
Play Dark Souls You Cretin 
 
Cute Kinnect Game Idea 
Natural Selection 2 
Has a training mode which you play on your own.

But seriously - if you have an internet connection, PLAY IT! 
I Liked Mark Of The Ninja 
although it's 2D. 
Dark Souls. 
Believe me I am tempted but I would ideally like something that would actually work out of the box, and if it's going to be a true 3PS RPG, then I want to be able to use my customary controls for it. Which according to a panel of experts, I can't. 
Yeah 
Mark of the ninja was good. 
Another Good 2D Stealth Game 
@GashMasher 
Dark Souls at most needs one easy to set up Mod ( DSFix ) if you want to use Controller only. If you want to use Mouse/KB you need DSMFix on top of that. Both are pretty easy to set up.

In Mouse/KB Mode you get a Key Settings Menu ingame - not sure if you also get this with a Controller though as i only ever played it with Mouse/KB. If not, there are some controller emulators that people seem to be suggesting a lot ( x360ce and MotionJoy ), which have custom key config support. 
@Rebbler 
So 2 mods needed. And Le Bal tried to rebind keys to something near my config and it didn't work.

No gamepad games please, ta. AND NO FUCKING 2D GAMES THANKS. 
Tetris 
 
Shamb 
Since you liked Skyrim, never thought of trying something like Fallout New Vegas? It's pretty much Skyrim with guns (not as pretty, but better writing). 
I Was Talking To Nitin 
You bellend.
