PC: World of Warcraft. For the Horde! Got a lvl 80 warlock, 78 priest (shadow currently, will be holy), 77 druid, 71 hunter, and an assorted cast of 35 and below. A lot of my guildies are being slacking putzes, and the ones that do want to do tough runs are obnoxious. Sigh.
I have plans to buy Mass Effect - my laptop doesn’t have a video card up to playing it, but my husband just bought a new laptop, and I think his old one can run the game.
PS3: Rock Band 3. I do vocals, as I have some small level of ability there and apparently a serious lack of hand-eye coordination on the guitar or drums. Stepping up the difficulty, slowly; I’d been doing Medium difficulty exclusively and am now making forays into Hard. I’ve unlocked all cities but not all venues.
Wii: Wii Fit. Getting my slacker butt back on the board to do some work, after getting derailed by the holidays and stress.
Hi, Neighbor!: No shame in playing the old classics - I occasionally play Baldur’s Gate 2 on the PC! Great storyline, and a crew of people who make addons to the game, really give this good replay value for me.
I heart GameTap and the used games trays out front of Planet X/EB/GameStop.
I’m trying to find a copy of Mafia on PC right now… the wonderful DeadlyAccurate gave me a copy a few years ago, which was promptly stolen by a computer repair place (!)
Xbox 360: The Last Remnant: This is the worst JRPG I’ve played on the 360 so far. I’m still planning on finishing it though, despite the technical issues and boring battles.
PC: Vampire the masquerade bloodlines: I stopped playing this for a couple of months, but now I picked it up again and made through the horrible Hollywood Warrens where I got stuck. Awesome RPG, IMO.
I’ve actually been playing Sim City 4 a bunch this week for some reason. I’m trying to figure out how to get a good highway system off the ground, and I’m trying a city made of separate “nodes” that are only connected by highway. It’s working surprisingly well.
Other than that, there’s the usual WoW, and I’m thinking of trying out Mass Effect. (Was Mass Effect one of those games whose PC version has horrible DRM?)
Since we just bought the XBox360 earlier this week, we are playing one of the games that came with it, Lego Indiana Jones. It’s really addictive. The whole idea of getting the XBox was to hook it up to the net and cancel the cable, but we’ve yet to do anything except play this silly, fun little game.
After giving up WoW cold turkey last year, I’ve been bouncing around a bit. Just finished Crysis last month, and I’ve been alternating between Mass Effect on the PC(which is awesome) and Super Mario Galaxy for the Wii, depending on my mood.
XBox360 here. Left 4 Dead is in there right now, and I just downloaded The Maw, Aegis Wing, and Braid, along with a couple of arcade favs - Robotron 2084 and Scramble.
Besides that, there are now 81 movies in my Instant Netflix Queue.
Wow, this thread really took off after I left work yesterday!
I’ve been thinking about reinstalling NWN2 on my computer, but that might be a very bad idea cause I specifically want to play The Nights Watch (from George RR Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire fantasy series) mod (found here Neverwinter Nights Guide - IGN ) and that’ll just get me into mods and that’ll suck out my everlasting soul… or something. But it’d be cool.
Finally got around to popping in Skate 2 last night and… well, it’s Skate, that’s for sure. Didn’t change too much, few new things, few kinda annoying things, more camera angles for replays, that sorta thing, but overall just a few updates to teh same core game. I liked the original, though, so I’ll probably like this one, once I stop sucking again.
Last Remnant looked awful. I played a bit of Infinite Undiscovery and couldn’t even make it through that. SquareEnix just sucks now, they went terribly downhill after the two companies merged and everyone from the old Squaresoft left.
How is Vampire bloodlines? I’m nerdy enough that I used to tabletop some Vampire (and Hunter, and Werewolf) and the only video game of the World of Darkness stuff I ever played was Hunter: The Reckoning for either ps1 or 2, I forget. Wasn’t particularly impressed. Mind giving a little mini-review of VtM Bloodlines?
Let’s Tap on the Wii. It’s a Japanese game that is a hell of a lot of fun and I hope it makes it over here so I can understand some of what I’m missing. (I homebrewed my Wii to play imports).
On the DS, it’s been Wordjong and New Super Mario Bros.
I got Fallout 3 for the Xbox but haven’t gotten deep into it yet.
Halo 3
Grand Theft Auto 4 (fell back into this and would like to finish it before the DLC comes out)
Street Fighter 2 HD Remix
Left 4 Dead
The Orange Box
Civilization: Revolution
Super Mario Galaxy
Call of Duty 5 (not reading the disc anymore; may have to put it on my hard drive)
I’ve been having a lot of fun with Mount & Blade (PC). For those that never heard of it, it’s a combat-heavy RPG with a bit of strategy thrown in, with probably the best mounted combat ever in a videogame. If you ever wanted to command a squad of knights and flank an enemy’s army right before infantry lines clash, this is your game.
Also, I’d like to add that I’m playing Romance of the Three Kingdoms XI and it’s fan-fucking-tastic. 7 people in America will want to know that it’s good. Everyone else will pass over this post completely.
Actually I’m kind of due for another Romance of Three Kingdoms game (or Nobunaga’s Ambition for that matter). It’s been a few years since I’ve played a KOEI strategy game.
I had no idea they still made those games… I loved whatever one I played first was, on the SNES (looking it up on wikipedia I’m thinking it was either II or III) and I guess they’re making a new one for the ps3. interesting. I might have to get RotTK XI for my computer… is it graphically intensive at all?
