Wow, I just bought the Penumbra Trilogy pack and so far (I've only played overture) it is one of the scariest first person games I've ever played and the physics system just brings it over the top. I had heard some complaints about the combat but I found it really added to the atmosphere.
So if you are looking for a scary first person experience(I wouldn't say FPS because it isn't really) then you shoulddefinitely look into getting Penumbra. You can get the trilogy off of d2d for $20.00,so really how could you go wrong.
How did I not know that there was a third Tropico coming out in September? I loved the first two so much. The only reason that I found out there was a third one was because of the games ticker thing on the Gamespot homepage. Why isn't there any hype around this, people should be shouting from the rooftops about this game, the first two were so brilliant, I hope that they do a really good job with this one.
So for the last two weeks I have been looking for a copy of War and Peace(the film). First I looked for the excellent 1968 version bySergei Bondarchuk but alas I could not find it, so I figured I'd look for the almost as good but not quite as good BBC version with Anthony Hopkins, but alas it was $90(!) so then finally, Ok Ill just find the 1956 King Vidor version, but yet again no luck. So I ask you why is it that a film as important as any of the version of War and Peace is so difficult to find? I mean, no ones ever going to have trouble finding a copy of Transformers or any film with Will Smith in it. I just think it's wrong that such a fantastic film should be so difficult for newer generations to find and enjoy. Don't you?
