Computer games? No.
Console games? Very much so.

I play at least 2-3 games a day. Mainly DS and PSP at the mo.
Psht, casual.

Some of my favorite games in the past month or so have been on the original Xbox. It's hard to believe that a previous-gen console can have such incredible graphics. My favorites so far;

Oddworld Munch's Oddysee - Pretty much the most unique platform engine ever made. I could definately imagine a sequel as a GTA style roaming game.

Oddworld Stranger's Wrath - Very interesting first-person shooter... best use of third-person perspective ever in a videogame I think. I love the all-fours running animation too. Brilliant plot, great characters!

Chronicles of Riddick - Such an awesome atmospheric game. Really good character dialogue and a great plot, with some good twists at the end.

Halo 2 - A well balanced shooting game that looks very fun. I can't wait to play more of this.
Munch's Oddysee was terrible. I don't see a 'GTA style roaming game' sequel coming unless they revamped it (as in, did what they wanted to do in the first place; a la Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts) because as I said, it was terrible.

Halo 2 was abhorrent and ruined anything fun about the first game.

Abe's Oddysee and ArmA, and a touch of Midnight Club LA.

This is a good post.
What's ArmA? How's it play?
