Borderlands 2 - i keep double tapping keys to try and dodge....
Yah, I keep doing this. So instead of dodging, I just seem to die a lot. I think I have finally shaken my habit of this - too many deaths due to my GW2 dodge not working in BL2. Got into a little bit of TL2 over the weekend and it's SO GOOD.

Back to playing an ancient mud - they added a new class!
Played World of Tanks a bit while stayin with friends in Cairo - will have to give it a shot when I get home and somehow download it.
Occasionally poking through Shogun2 with a friend of mine.
Ordered NHL13 to try to get my hockey fix.
And still have a billion playthroughs in-progress across several games.

Mists of Pandaria, grinding my DK to 90. Hopefully I'll still make time to finish BL2, but WoW's a hell of a drug.

Grind in a new expansion?

Well not in a sense of "sitting in one place killing mobs", more "focused heavily on gaining xp as fast as possible".

The Supernatural expansion for the Sims 3 is pretty fun, if anyone cares. I like it a lot better than the last one.

That's probably my favorite showoff one to do on Expert vocals.

Yeah, "Reptilla" is on vocals too. Hmmm, that reminds me, still need a lot of drum and vocal points towards completionist...

Torchlight 2 and Borderlands 2. More of the first, but the second one is slowly gaining due to the (oddly enough) supremely enjoyable writing.
Still FTL if I only have a few minutes to burn (its perfect for that).

Someone released a System Shock 2 patch that makes it pretty painless to get working on Windows 7 and supports modern, widescreen resolutions. A mod and a texture pack later and it works like a charm. Been years since I played this so I'm looking forward to revisiting one of my all-time favourites.
Still chipping away at GW2 as well. Seems like there are lots of good games from the past couple of months ready to go once I can get the time. TL2 and BL2 now, and X-Com next week. Hell, even Dungeon Crawl put out a big update the other day.

Splitting my time between GW2 and MOP. I have no idea what I'm going to do come Oct 12 and XCOM... but having to split time between those 3 games is probably one of the better dilemmas to be in

Pandaria while alone, working on my dailies and grinding Heroics.
Dead or Alive 5 when I've got friends over. It's got a surprisingly in-depth story mode, complete with pretty cut-scenes and all. My biggest complaint is that Tag mode isn't heavily supported online; you can only do it by creating or joining a lobby for it, there aren't quick/ranked match options for Tag, only Solo.

I'm looking for that painless System Shock installation. SS2 was neat and all, but it wasn't as great as the original. Lately I'm playing Borderlands 2 and Guild Wars 2. Sometimes more Fez.

I'm currently deployed and have a pretty decent laptop with me, but a completely garbage and rather dodgy internet connection. Anyone have any recommendations that would be easily acquired with a download speed of like 12kb/sec?
When I have time, I'm playing a couple roguelikes. Mainly Crawl and another more open ended one called Cataclysm.

Where are you deployed? Your best bet is probably some sort of cellular tethering like a MiFi or a cell phone and OS that allows tethering. Latency will be an issue but bandwidth should be okay, especially if you are somewhere that has 3G+ (e.g. HSDPA) or 4G.

That would be awesome if that were an option, unfortunately it ain't. I was thinking maybe some old school titles that aren't massive in size? Or maybe some indie titles?

Picked up Pokemon White 2 and enjoying it so far. I wish they'd added more new pokemon (or at least not the exact 3 starters from B/W 1) but otherwise it's cool. This year's "silly noncombat gimmick no one gives a fuck about" is making movies, which you have to do at least once to advance the story. At least you can trade freely between B/W 1 pretty early on (after getting your first badge) so I have a couple decent pokemon from the get-go.
Still futzing around in MoP; my guild fell apart so I'm torn with trying to rebuild it or just running LFR and being satisfied.

Aside from Borderlands 2, I picked up Tokyo Jungle on PSN, which may be about the strangest roguelike I've ever played. My last play session was pretty typical, highlighted by my killer Pomeranian laying waste to about 2 dozen cats (and countless rabbits and chickens to stay fed) while claiming their territory. Later on, I got beat up by (but escaped from) a crocodile and ultimately murdered by beagles while looking for something to kill/eat to recuperate from that fight. If you have $15 to blow and like really strange games, this is right up your alley.

Oh, that came out? I picked a bad year to start painting minis! :) That's on my short list with X-Com for when I have loose change again. Glad to hear it's good.

Played Borderlands for a month with friends before BL2 came out. Hit 50 in the sequal and burned out fast on the replay. Waiting on the expansion s due soon. For now it is XCOM and a bit of Skyrim when I need to cut someone (after failures). XCOM is a fantastic game that I excel at being terrible at!

X-Com interspersped with some League of Legends. I'm afraid everything else is going on the backburner.

Grabbed Code of Princess for my 3DS, which is a hilariously Japanese beat-em-up/RPG.
Also started up a Mecro in BL2 for a steady duo with my friend's Siren. This is the first time I've done any real multiplayer so far and it's much better this way. I just wish there was a loot rolling system.
Still futzing around in MoP with my dailies and such, although now that I don't have a raiding guild I'm not sure how much longer I'll last (and I can't be arsed to join a new one/recruit people again due to my wonky schedule).

Completed: -Torchlight 2 (want to get back to it but it can wait) -Borderlands 2 (did some half-hearted Warrior farming, honestly not all that interested in second playthrough)
Playing: -Dishonored (Still pretty fuckin ownage outside of some small personal peeves with it, not sure how far in I am...)
Need to get back to: -LA Noire (worth playing if you'd like a more modern turn on the adventure genre and have the box to play it)
In the Queue: -Max Payne 3 -Binary Domain -Mists of Pandaria (I imagine I'll get into it, then discover that everyone in LFG will hate me because I don't know the dungeons by heart since it'll likely be well into next month before I hit cap. Then I'll find out that both my goon guild and my old friend guild have their raid groups set and I get to experience "No Homers Club" again)

Still playing Borderlands 2, and next up I have to decide between Dishonored and Of Orcs and Men. Harder than you'd think!

Just ran through To The Moon, phew. One of those games I'm glad I played, and now will never, ever touch again. Enough touchy feely stuff, I need to chainsaw an orc or something.
Grabbed Retro City Rampage, which is neat so far. The 80s references are dense in here, it's like it rocketed past the point of parody and just built an entire game out of obscure video game trivia. It's definitely a fun game, though, and seems really solid so far, but I'm only a few minutes in.
Also got a copy of Hell Yeah, which is Sega's new 2D platformer thing. It's... weird. The kind of game where you dress your character (an undead rabbit) up in a George Washington wig and fly around in a wheel made of axes to shoot at a cyborg polar bear, and then finish him off by launching a shark into space to activate an orbital satellite laser. Controls seem a little floaty, though.
Grabbed Darksiders 2 last week on sale, I think this series is probably my biggest guilty pleasure. Enjoying the hell out of it so far. Seems a lot more developed than the original game.
Plus, picked up the new Blood Bowl CE. Trying out the new teams, but I'm not sure I'll use any of them. The only one that really catches my eye at this point is the Underworld team, which unfortunately seems like a mix of Skaven and Goblins but without the players that make the Skaven effective or the Goblins fun.
