What Games Are You Playing?

On my 4th or 5th pass through Fallout New Vegas - playing Hardcore Mode and this time siding with the Legion.

Great game, good for hours and hours of entertainment thanks to all the mods and hard work put in by modders on New Vegas Nexus. It may not be hugely different from Fallout 3 but thanks anyway Bethesda and Obsidian.

The only game ever worth playing : Diablo II Lord of Destruction

and desperately waiting for Diablo 3!

Was playing Metro 2033, but finding it hard to stick with.

Maybe its just me, but I simply can not get into it.

Its an OK game,but I loose interest & it becomes boring very quickly.

It just feels like it leads you from point A to point B with no choices what-so-ever. Very linear I guess would be the term.

I know many like it, but just not that great IMHO. Or at least not my type of game.

Then again, maybe if I stick with it a bit longer it will get better.

Just got Dirt 2 yesterday and it's the first game on this box I built a year ago. Goes to show what a gamer I am these days. Fun game if I can keep the car going straight.

Got that right.

Still practicing on the first two races you're given and I've won some on the Easy setting. Also have puts around with the wheel settings and that helped alot. Still wipe out sometimes; self-induced errors.

A fun game altogether. The first race after setup cracked me up watching the replay. ROTFL stuff there.

I didn't like the keyboard for this game so I bought an XBox 360 controller. I'd like to try a wheel though one of these days.

 

[mickey megabyte]

try it with a xbox controller...

I've yet to. I bought an Xbox controller for Windows recently. Makes playing Fifa 11 so much easier, and been wanting to try Dirt 2.

 

[mickey megabyte]

you can almost steer the controller...

 

[Wishmaster]

I love my 360 controller for certain games.

Except for FPS type Games. Seems to make it more difficult to aim for me.

I'm having way too much fun with Team Fortress 2 now I finally got the Eternal Reward, and the amount of fun I'm having should be illegal. Using Cloak and Dagger to sit in corners, wait for entire enemy team to pass by, follow them untill they meet my team, then start stabbing. People start noticing there's a spy around after 3+ people are dead. It's great ^^

Other than that, I used to play quite a bit of Resident Evil 5 until I got to the final encounter in the volcano, neither me or my partner had ANY ammo left on any weapons, which really seemed like a dick move from the developers. We've always been pretty accurate and didn't waste our ammo, and it's just terrible that we have to go through other levels before just to farm ammo. We can live without the ending capcom dialogs though

Also, Battle for Middle Earth on LAN and Prototype

Finished the new Call Of Duty in 2 nights....was OK, not great.

Revisiting Dragon Age (both Origins and Awakening) with a new sense of how the game mechanics work, this time with a full range of DLCs and addons and stuff. Yes, I have no life.

Don't you just shiver at the thought of replaying the Tower of Magi quest? That's what always keeps me from reinstalling DaO ^^ Also, I haven't tried the Awakening, is it a stand-alone campaign or must I replay the original to access it?

Yeah It's stand alone. Don't need to replay the original. Good game as well.

 

[Wishmaster]

Dragon Age is such a wonderful game.

I am patiently awaiting my Pre-Ordered DAO 2 to be here in March.

I just hope the changes they make are for the better, and they do not sacrifice all the elements that made the game great, or dumb it down to much.
