While impatiently waiting for my new laptop to arrive, I'm playing the following on my 500mhz PIII Gateway desktop:
Warcraft III (no expansion), which I can't wait to see running on the "not everything on low" video settings
Freecell (Hi, my name is Jon, and I'm an addict)
Once the laptop gets here:
More Warcraft III
NWN, this barely runs on my desktop, but it's so slow that I gave up
Splinter Cell, I played this on my brother's system before I moved into my new apartment, and my god is it good.
The only console system I have is N64...which I don't really play.

I'm playing a whole lot of the free Return to Castle Wolfenstein mod, "Enemy Territory".
ET is an objective-based, team FPS where you gain experience points in one of 7 categories based on how well and how often use them. There are 5 classes, each having 2 identical skills and 1 class-specific skill. For instance, a medic can revive fallen comrades and gets XP for that (up to 4 ranks). The more ranks he gets, the better he is at being a medic, gaining a variety of useful abilities. Maps are 30 minutes, offense vs. defense most of the time, and an absolute BLAST to play. Highly recommended!
Here's the site where you can get it for free.
I'm also playing the Tron 2.0 demo. It's also an FPS but is stylistically superior to any other in its genre I've seen a few years. I wasn't particularly impressed with the enemy AI or linear level design, but you can't beat pummeling guard programs with a disc or the adrenaline rush of LIGHT CYCLES!
For the consoles, I'm in a race with my roommate to see who can beat Metroid
rime first. Love that game. Just finished the beating the first Super-pirate in the phazon mines. Yech!
I've been thinking about picking up Tenchu: Wrath of Heaven for some time now. I think I'll save my pennies for the safer bets later this fall, though. HALF-LIFE 2, HERE I COME!

I've just played through Legend of Legaia 2: Duel Saga for PS2, that's a great game for classic RPGers. If you ever played the first Legaia for PSOne, you'll love this game, you'll love it even if you haven't.
Morrowind: The Elder Scrolls for X-Box is a great way to spend hours upon hours without getting bored. I have a feeling KOTOR will be the same way, that's next for me.
Other than that, I'm just waiting for games like KOTOR, The Hobbit, and Starcraft: Ghost along with some others.

As much as I want to see SOul Calibur 2 in my future... Not gonna happen. Home computer is having trouble and thats more important than a new game, any new game. So maybe in a month or two.
