Well, its not really rehab I'm looking for, just a different drug to tide me over till next year, since the sad news of Elder Scrolls: Oblivion release delay.

And I was building a new machine just to play it.

Sid Meier's Pirates sounds cool, but a little thin on the storyline. I'd really like something from this year with a (William Gibson / Neal Stephenson / David Bowie ala Omikron / Bladerunner / Deus Ex) feel to it. But I don't see anything like that out there.

Got any recommendations?
