Trine

Just gave the Trine demo a shot, from Steam. The art style and atmosphere of the game are top notch, and I think I could really get into this game. The only problem I had, from a 30 minute run in the demo, were the mouse and keyboard controls really didn't do it for me. I would have loved to have a controller in my hand while playing it, but otherwise I thought it was a well worth my time. The physics in the game appeared to be quite good, and the amount of manipulation of objects in the environment was substantial. I also liked the fact that there were multiple approaches to take to solve each puzzle situation, allowing for unique replays later.

Still making my way through Fable II as well. This game has captured my attention more than any other since Fallout 3, which reminds me I still need to complete the Broken Steel expansion. I'm not as excited about going back to this since it causes my PC to crash every time I exit out of the game.
