Guitar Hero II (Hard is kicking my ass), Castlevania: SotN (missed it the first time around), and finally getting my God of War II game on.

Played kill the mal/spyware on my old pc last night (six total). I think it's clean now, but going to give it some more beatings. Jumped onto EQ2 to empty my mailboxes before things disappeared on me.

When honorable PC#2 is fully functional again:
EQ2
FFvTR
maybe some SimGolf

When I get a new gpu for honorable PC#1:
EQ2
MUA
FEAR
Gothic3

Planning on getting Jade Empire, GalCiv2 Gold, maybe Stalker. Really just biding time until Spore comes out. I don't play a lot of games, mostly EQ2 these days.

What game is it then?

Edit:  Good Grief!  I think something has frazzled in my brain today!  I read that as a shard free from UO and not a free UO shard!  This is the second time I've failed reading comprehension on this forum today!  NAP!

Have not been able to find much to excite me lately, could use some MMOG action but am done with diku and have heard of no interesting niche MMOG present or planned. Was a big Conan fan, read all of Howard's books years ago, but am skeptical of what depth a console enabled MMOG  can offer. Guess I still want UO "done right", fat chance of that, hah! Board surfing can be fun but the loathing of crap games and the people that play them begins to seethe.

Tried the Crackdown demo for 360 and that seems like a few hours of fun, will try to rent the game. I'd be probably playing a Mario game of some sort if I had a Nintendo machine, Paper Mario screenies make me wistful.

Am downloading the Theatre of War demo right now, looks neato.

I might download the re-release of Close Combat 3: "Cross of Iron". The Close Combat series is by far my favorite realtime strategy type games (OMG tactical RTS thats not a clickfest!). I played the heck out of CCIII back when it was originally released, solo play is ho-hum but the prospect of online play is enticing, I'm not sure if there is a decent pool of players though.

Is this in a mostly-finished playable state yet?  Last I looked they were still doing beta releases.

It is pretty darn playable, though the Svartalfar, Illian, and Sidar civlizations are incomplete. They don't have their special abilities implemented yet, and end up weak compared to the others.

Yep, enjoying Fall from Heaven 2 a lot.
Also:  Puzzle Quest (PSP)  Damn that two headed ogre was tough til I went Troll ring and Regen on him; building my empire now.
Titan Quest Expansion (sans mods; now that I can trade gear between toons without the external vault i'm enjoying altitis a bit more)
Master of Magic (though FfH2 is helping me finally stop playing this game)

Sorta playing sometimes:
GalCiv2Gold
Oblivion (just to finish up the main line eventually)
Phantom Dust (xbox)
Gladius (xbox)

What a shock; most of my games are turn based.

I am fairly monogamous in my gameplaying- I tend to focus on one at a time. Currently WoW is taking that slot, but I am working ME II- TW back into the rotation (the Scots own the Isles as God intended atm). I really need to hook my Xbox back up and get back into WE9- I vastly preferred it over the EA FIFA offerings.

Hopefully I will have a couple more decent nights at the poker table so I can pick up an Xbox 360 Elite and GHII next month.

I'm running through Dragon Quest VIII again.  Then I'll probably go back and finish VII.  Also playing Super Mario for the DS, which is fun as hell in that old school gaming feel.

Tonight, more Ar tonelico, now that I have verified my new corp laptop can connect to the VPN.  Also installed powercalc and tweakui on my machine here, so I guess I'm also playing WinXP a little.

Last week or so, Killjoy came to visit... actually he just stayed overnight because he came into the ATL to see Mike Patton.  Anyway, I had to show him where the katana and submachine gun were in Dead Rising... and that you can restart and keep your PP.  Suddenly he goes from "bleh, it sucks" to "BEST GAME EVER!!!" so I am almost playing vicariously through him now.  He called me four times today to jabber about Dead Rising, something about a clown with tiny chainsaws that blocks bullets and new uses for the lead pipe.  I almost wish he would get a job.

Mike Patton?  Like in Faith No More?  I can relate to the clown with tiny chainsaws, though.  I am related to one of those.

Well you can rest assured that you are apparently in the 3 - 5% that have experienced a failure. As was I.

Oh and don't worry about when your warranty expires. If it's an Xbox 360 and it has red rings they'll replace it. For some reason they're a little sensitive to that...

Same here, got mine in Jan and it gave me the ring in march. (yep we are a couple now) Sure seems like more then 3-5% but whatever, didn't cost me a dime to fix thankfully. As to games.

Diablo LoD. Playing with my bro is always fun be it Diablo or...

WC3. Man this game was worth every penny and them some. I almost never run out of maps to play. Be it DotA, or a nice RPG like The Black Road.

Still waiting on the DLC for marvel ult alliance. Was suposed to be out the 10th.
Mostly just waiting on something new to grab me tho. I blew through C&C3 in like a week, was hoping it would hold my attention longer. Also Titan Quest. Picked up the expack, it held my interest for a couple weeks I'm done with it now. Just doesn't have the Fun of Diablo.
