Status : Offline | Yesterday I thought it was a Delta Force game, but now I'm thinking The Sum Of All Fears. I'm not a tactical FPS fan, but I can't think of any others that may have come out at that time - especially since you killed the possibility of it being a Rainbow Six game in the first clue

Status : Offline | It is The sum of all fears! It uses the same engine as rainbow six, which is why they look so similar. The interface is different though, as the game is quite a bit simpler.
As noone has tried to guess Travelers last picture, I guess I'l be cheeky and take that one. Its Drakensang. As i'm quite sure of it (the interface is a dead giveaway) so I'll post another one.

Its quite obvious which engine this game uses and who made it. But which game, among all the ones made with this engine is it?

Status : Online | I recently finished playing 'Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines', which despite having a mouthful of a name, was a lot of fun. Lovely locations and some very fun quests. A lot of it was kinda redundant though, but Troika managed to create a nice immersive gaming environment that made up for that.
I also lately played Mirror's Edge, which I didn't think I'd like. The early levels were fun, hopping around rooftops and all. Good responsive controls, gave a real feeling of 'parkour'. But then the game seemed to move indoors, crawling through predictable air vents and all that, and I lost interest. Shame. Should have kept it all outdoors. Freerunning indoors just defeats the whole purpose.

I don't recognise the scene from Planescape: Torment or Baldur's Gate 1 or 2 (although I may well have forgotten it), so I'll take a stab in the dark: Is it Icewind Dale 2?
MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
*ahem*
Sorry.

Hey there, Wolfboy, I do hope you forgive my presumptiousness, but I copied and pasted your interesting post to the thread where we discuss the games we've been playing, in case people miss it, or might have liked to discuss it.
See here : http://justadventure.com/yabb/YaBB.pl?num=1223979791/508#508
This here thread that we are in, is a thread similar to the screenshot thread in the AG forum, where you can post any screenshot of a non-adventure game, and the rest of us has to guess what game it's from. Quite fun once you get into the flow of it. Hope you'll participate when you have the time!

..and to give XernoSam a break until he has time to post something, here are 2 shots from the same game:

Status : Offline | Dang, I suspected you'd know, and hoped you'd decide not to say yet, so i could post another screenie of it, but maybe i can in any case?
Well, anyway, i also like the look of it, so here's another picture:
[IMG]http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn305/jeniho/474370_smaller.jpg[/IMG]
The more screenies i look at, the more impatient i become to get my hands on the game. ..and it's a lot cheaper than Starcraft 2; maybe I should wait a bit with Starcraft... I've found I actually still have a lot of RTS's to carry on with, like Empire Earth 3 and so on.

Status : Offline | SC2 set me back 250sek, which is about 25€, so it was not an expensive game either. I guess it was used to lure people into the shop though (a common practice over here, they have something for sale that they advertise, but they only have a few copies of it. It is illegal to advertise for something that you don't have for sale. People don't like to leave a store empty handed, and will often buy something else instead). The more I see of Disciples 3, the more I want it though.
Here is a medieval life sim/management game from 2006

Yup, I cut out all the interface bits to make it a little more challenging.

Andromus, could you give us another hint?
