Recently, I have found myself becoming increasingly disenchanted with many of the latest, blockbuster style PC games. It seems that many PC game developers have become so content with the technical capabilities of their works, that great content and good old fashioned fun have been sidelined.

In a box I found a copy of The Chaos Engine. I stopped playing Prototype.
