I can't even play the IWDs with widescreen hacks, they both just lag out to a crawl. :/ BG2 works fine, as does Torment.
There's a mod called IWD in BG2. http://forums.gibberlings3.net/index.php?showforum=155I didn't bother trying it but it sounds mostly stable. I expect we'll see IWD in BG:EE engine fairly soon after it's released.

Nice graphics!
Are you using a gaming wheel, and if so, which one? Mine is decidedly sub-par...
(goes off to finish up his Path of Neo replay before installing ME3 for the first time)
Actually, ehm....I have quite a bizarre relationship with the Grand Prix series (and all the racing games in general) : I totally suck at them, I think the only two racing games I actively played were Pole Position at the arcades in the early eighties, and Grand Prix Circuit on the Amiga: http://www.mobygames.com/game/grand-prix-circuit--- Believe it or not, I only use the "spectator mode" and enjoy the qualifying and the races. AI is simply fantastic. Would I rather watch the "real" thing? No, because, since the beginning of the 2000's, the real thing is one of the most boring sports ever, IMO.

Just to drop a note in here, since not a lot of folks are following the Planetside 2 thread.
Pre-orders are up and those of us who pre-ordered each have a beta key for a friend. So if you want to check it out before launch, head down to the mmo forum and pm someone who has a key (the couple pages).

Starting into ME3. Made it to the citadel so far.
Initial impressions: graphics and sound are solid, mouse is a bit twitchy in combat, and the import from ME2 went well (though I can only tell one impact it's made so far). Some of the NPCs seem a bit stiff, though - we'll see if that wears off a bit as the game rolls on.

If its your first time through on ME3, I'll recommend trying out the multiplayer a bit. Its not needed for the ending, but it really is worth giving a try. I ignored it my first time through the game, and regretted it. Its mindlessly fun, and good practice on the combat (if you're feeble like me and actually need practice in games like this).

Will ponder the multiplayer, but doubt I'll actually do it. ...of note, looks like a ton of songs on sale for Rock Band? Think this is a first...

I didn't think I'd care about the multiplayer either - I'm generally not a play-with-randoms kind of guy - but it really is a lot of fun.

Started into The Secret World finally. Loving the writing, voice acting and NPC character modeling, but the lip sync animations are so atrociously bad it actively detracts from the overall experience. Honestly, static images of the talking heads, or having them be mute telepaths or something would be better than this weird uncanny valley where every person on the planet had their braces wired together!

This except my "soon" is Borderlands 2. :) For some reason I can't make up my mind what platform to get Borderlands 2 on. I'm frustrating myself!

GW2, TL2, Black Mesa and LoL
I went and played the pre-MoP scenario in WoW - if that's the best that Blizzard can do then I won't be resubbing or buying MoP
Actually, GW2 and TL2 have pretty much convinced me that WoW and D3 have no place on my hard drive

Like most people:
Borderlands 2 - I'm enjoying this but to be honest unless you're perfectly in sync with your friends it's kind of annoying to group really due to the lack of individual loot. Leads to a lot of swapping parties. Torchlight 2 - I'm going to blast through this past the part where the beta ended. It's awesome so far.
Still working on it: Black Mesa - Great and all but I'm towards the end and some of my least favorite parts of the original game. Outside of some engine wonkiness and the music cues being way way too loud or not fitting at times they really hit it out of the park.
Spec Ops: The Line - Great story but the gameplay is just so mediocre/bad at times it's hard to push yourself into finishing it. My "Over-the-shoulder-shooter World Tour" will continue damnit.

Error 404: Title not found.

I'm back to playing WoW and leveling a shammy. It's up to 70, and I hope I can cap it off before Tuesday.

I'm finding myself still playing mostly GW2 despite Borderlands 2 coming out. I've played a bit of that as well, but last night I couldn't pull myself away from GW2.
Been a great summer/fall for MMOs for me. Between GW2 and TSW, I'm seeing a product closer to my own tastes. Likelihood of crawling back to WoW for MoP has gone down dramatically.

Agreed on both games. Somehow lost two hours in GW2 last night and hit level 25! One of those hours was crafting and messing around after hitting 25. In no rush to level, happy to have a no-sub game like that. Should help me get over not having the money to buy this season's games until steam sales.

That's ... doable. What a grind, though. On topic: - Torchlight II (as soon as I get home)
- Minecraft
- GW2
- World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria, as of this upcoming Tuesday
WoW will probably knock the others off the list for a few days (edit for punctuation)

Right now:
Borderlands 2 Torchlight 2 World of Tanks WoW Ticket to Ride
Got bored with GW2 really quickly. I'll get back into TSW once I'm done with BL2 and TL2 . I'm also enjoying the simple game play of Ticket to Ride.

I will give the TL2 demo a try Sunday night, probably. I didn't really care for 1 much, so I'm glad there's a demo option so quickly, kudos to them for that.

GW2 - not having the monthly fee is so nice when there other games to play Borderlands 2 - i keep double tapping keys to try and dodge.... MtG DotP 2013 expansion - 5 return to rav decks, one for each guild in that set for $5 and soon to be Xcom and Dishonored of course "It's the most wonderful time of the year..." /offkey-singing

Playing a lot of STO out of a sense of starbase-obligation to my fleet. Playing a bit of GW2, but I never got snagged by its hooks, so I'm finding some minor repeated annoyances sapping the enjoyment more than they should. Poking around Skyrim mods again, because I didn't get nearly far enough into that.

Is there a decent Skyrim mod that makes the UI a bit less console-tacular on the PC? I never finished Skyrim and probably should go play through the back half of the game sometime, but would love to have a less clunky interface...

I use QD Inventory (which hasn't been updated in almost a year?! maybe I should look for something new...) and Immersive HUD.

Grabbed the new Kingdom Hearts game and Final Fantasy: Theatrythm for the 3DS, which are pretty okay. I had pretty low expectations for Theatrythm, and higher expectations for Kingdom Hearts, and they both ended up kind of in the middle. They are pushing my nostalgia buttons pretty hard, though.
Winding down my time in FTL. It's a crazy fun game while it lasts, but seems kind of short on long term gameplay for me.
On a bit of a vampire kick, too, so I've been playing VtM: Bloodlines and Soul Reaver a bit.
