LoL is my life now, but I've managed to squeeze in some Red Faction Armageddon.

Same boat, but I'll be trying to fit in some Dark Souls.  Wish I would have tried it earlier.

Heh, my gaming time is a struggle to find time for LoL, Madden 12, FIFA 12 with the f13 Blood Bowl leagues thrown in. Where is my sugar mommy when I need her?

I added it to my facebook games. Problem though with most of these games is how big a rip off they are compared to normal games. For example I can buy a full stand alone game like Heroes of Might and Magic VI right now on Steam for $49. But to buy unlimited play time on this facebook game they want $50 for credits as well. Thats ridiculous when comparing the quality of the two games being offered at the same price.

I've started university (again) so haven't played a lot, lately: still, my studying habits are going to take a huge hit because, like it always happens every year around this time, Football Manager is out (published today)  ACK! ACK!

just how many layer of shit can developers coat their games with these days?

GTA4 - bought off steam -
-sign in to SOCIAL CLUB!
- SECURE ROM!
- YOU MUST LOGIN TO GAY FOR WINDOWS LIVE TO SAVE GAME

FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK

HATE THIS SHIT

I bought the game, LET ME PLAY IT FFS.\

Edit: They asked for my first name and I just tossed 'Fuck You' in the XBox Live registration. Why do I have to login to an XBOX LIVE NETWORK WHEN I'm playing on PC?! WTF
And they gave me a new name instead....a gamertag they call it.

My gamertag, according to microsoft is 'LoneMoss122956'

You don't need to log into Rockstar Social club unless you want to play multiplayer.

GFWL has its toes in a lot of ponds, Fallout 3 etc. You log in once and it autologs in. Failing to see how it's a rage-worthy burden.

Sorry man, I was expecting them to lighten up on the DRM since I'm buying it off steam but to have it like this and games won't be playable until you install GFWL is flipping the rage switch on me.
I'll do more research from now on. :( Hate these sort of crippling features.

So been messing around in Battlefield:BC2. How rampant is cheating on the PC? My FPS twitch skills are horrible I'll admit. But it seems if anyone sees me, no matter how far away or what kit, I am dead in about half a second. Whereas even when I get the drop on someone I am lucky to kill them before they turn around and kill me. Seeing some guy run up to the point my squad is defending and casually take all four of us noobs out by himself makes me wonder. Ditto trying to snipe some distant medic/eng with my 12x scope and having them quickly take me out with a burst from their un-scoped gun. Am I just a baddie?

Most of them are already THAT good of a level by now. Been in servers where most of the top killers are usually level 50s. It's pretty much reflex. It took me weeks before I could kill someone in one clip of the assault rifle. Before that I just went full medic to spam bullets at red triangles, living off kill assist points and revives. Try playing recon and spam the motion sensors if it gets too harsh. Equip the shotgun and have fun.

Still messing around with my modded Minecraft world; trying to figure out how solar generators work in IndustrialCraft. Also doing some co op Dungeon Defenders with my girlfriend. We tried playing with another one of our friends but with three people there we all felt mana starved.

Also picked up the second EDF for Xbox 360 after the first was highly recommended. I only paid $25 for it but still I'm a bit disappointed and might be returning it.

Been enjoying Payday: The Heist quite a bit. FPS coop. Think L4D mixed in with a CoV style timed tasks while wave after wave of cops come at ya. The physics and graphics are good and the AI seems pretty clever.

I've been studying (and study-avoiding), so gaming has been breaks while staying at the computer. Bits of LotRO, Space Marine (campaign and laggy MP), Dawn of War II campaign (finally got it working after.. a year?) and DoWII Retribution Last Stand.

Its [f13]Engels. Currently playing with clanmates in our WoT clan Evil Chickens, but we often have a spot for another, so we can look for you once we're steam pals.

Playing through GH4 again to unlock all the songs.  Man, there's a lot of songs on that disk.  Unlocked them all on the PS2 years back, going for the repeat on the PS3.

About to give up on SR2. Either runs too fast or too slow, no amount of tweaking with the powertools can get it right. Between this and the bullshit with getting Oblivion up and running, I'm suddenly much less interested in the next two big releases. As a pc gamer, I don't mind doing a little tweaking, but these two games are ridiculous.

Finally getting around to playing some Bastion; bought it a month ago after playing the demo but haven't really had time until now. I like it much better on the Xbox than I would on the PC.

I guess it depends on how you want to play it.  I liked the bow and machete so having relatively precise aiming while still moving around like mad was nice.  I never bothered to finish it though so maybe I'll give it a whirl with my 360 controller.

Played the first couple single-player levels of Trine 2 and it's so very pretty.

I've been playing Borderlands. Does it get better later in the game? Getting really bored about 5 hours in. Still in the same start-ish area. Everything looks identical. No storyline to speak of. Annoying mechanics and menus...

What you see after the first hour or so is pretty much what you get.  If FPS shoot everything, skill up and collect lots of randomized loot is not your thing then I imagine you wouldn't like it.

Yeah, Boderlands is what is from the start pretty much.  (Pretty sure you've got vehicles going by that many hours in.)  Some of the special abilities get really cool as you put points in them, but if you're not intrigued by five hours, you're probably not going to like it much.

About done with Fallout New Vegas. I explored every POI in the old world and just started the nuke in Lonesome Road. Using random weapons I fancy with my trusted Holorifle as backup. I give it 4 to 5 more hours tops, then off to the ending of the game and lets see how that plays out with my Karma reset to Neutral.

Then I'm either going really Oldschool with the Geneforge series (thanks to moving to Steam, spares me the hassle of hunting my old CDs down) or finally finish Deus Ex Human Revolution.

I finally seem to have reached the age where I have problems finishing games. Some days I just pop in some innocent rounds of Sequence and call it a day. I am scared.

Yeah, it's an awesome game, I just finished it a couple of days ago. The riddles and the trophies are really great to keep you interested in the game if you ever get bored with inmate slapping. Boss fights could be better though.

I was at 80% completed in my first playthrough, mostly because I completely disregarded the riddles and the trophies. Big mistake  ACK!

I'm currently playing The Witcher. Been strolling through act 1 for months now, mostly because it's boring. I almost quit the game  but acts 2 and 3 have really "saved the game" for me.
