    The title explains it all: what games are you playing on your PC's? I have absolutely no idea, why I didn't found a similar thread. Here's mine:

    Desktop:
    CoD 4
    TF2
    UT3
    BioShock (for, like, the 6th or 7th time)
    World in Conflict

    Notebook:
    TF2
    UT3
    Sam & Max Season 2 xD

    World of Warcraft
    UFO: Afterlight (though I'm having trouble getting interested in it...)

    And just installed Temple of Elemental Evil again for some old-school RPG fun!

    I just have these on my laptop right now:
    - Prince of Persia (2008)
    - Unreal Tournament 2004

    I had:
    - C&C Red Alert 3 + Uprising Expansion
    - Burnout Paradise
    - NFS: Undercover
    - Unreal Tournament 3
    - Worms Armageddon

    But these were before I reformatted my laptop and I was too lazy to install them again, though I am planning on installing Worms Armageddon even though it's a hassle to get it working in Vista.

    As for my desktop, I think C&C: Tiberium Wars + Kane's Wrath, NFS: Underground + Hot Pursuit 2 are on there but I haven't started it in the longest time.

    On my desktop I'm playing TF2 and L4D, soon to end as the next school term starts.
