Trine and trine 2 are good games and very pretty looking.
Limbo is also a brilliant atmospheric game really pulls you in and the scenery changes without you even noticing lol.

DAO's graphics werent even very good when the game was new, Crysis still amazes me without modding.

And it looks better than crysis 2 on max settings.

I think you need to get your eyes tested.

Was looking into getting these, is it easy enough playing this on keyboard + mouse or is it worth buying a controller? Only ever really played fps or rts games so unsure how well these play on a kb.

It isn't impossible but I would certainly prefer a pad. Have you played the Assassin's Creed games? ....I would treat it the same as those in that respect. Some people do use kb/m and say it is fine.

Ah right, I'll start shopping around for 360 controllers in that case.

Yea I have the first game, bought it about a year or two ago, lasted all of ten minutes to be honest :)

Dark Souls - Challenging RPG with great battle mechanics and nice diverse environments. Needs a mod to look good on PC though. It can be picked up for around 15 pound retail these days which comes with all the goodies like an artbook and poster.

From what I've heard, challenging is an understatement! :p

I can highly recommend the Mass Effect Trilogy. Absolutely phenomenal sci fi RPG that gets better as the series goes on.

Does a massive tropical island to explore, more explosions than a Michael Bay flick and a grappling hook/parachute combo sound appealing to you? Of course it does! Just Cause 2 is an absolute hoot of a game in a similar vein to Grand Theft Auto and Saints Row.
