The Weekend Playlist -- 07/29/11

[PR_GMR]

It's.... The Weekend Playlist! Fostering your hobby since 1983, the year in which one of America's quintessential post-punk bands made their debut. Their lyrics have encouraged you to 'suck their kiss' and 'ride love rollercoasters'. It's.. the Red Hot Chilli Peppers! whose self-titled first record was released on September 24th, 1983.

So what will be your gaming pleasure this weekend? I'll be very busy with work of all sorts this weekend, so not sure I'll be able to get any gaming at all. Oh, pooh, and I really want to play League Of Legends and inFamous badly. Maybe I'll get a few minutes of each. How about you?

[CeeKay]

I'll likely wander back to SpaceChem.  Other than that, I don't know.  I'm headed to the bar this evening, have dinner plans tomorrow, and doing volunteer work on Sunday.  My time at home will be limited, which I am liking.  Now I need to start working on more nights away from the couch/computer during the week.  The return to the gym should help with that.

[Jarrodhk]

EDF, Ascension, maybe some COD Black Ops SP and MP. Whatever else occurs to me.

Uncharted 2-PS3

Still not started this,undecided whether to start Uncharted again first just to get me up to speed on the series

I played through this for the first time a month ago or so now. Good stuff although not sure I liked it better than UC1. Both are great though.

[jersoc]

MLG starts today. So i'll be watching lots and lots of starcraft. Otherwise it's Catherine, Bastion and probably SC2.

[Gratch]

So buried with work lately that I can barely come up for air.  Might go back to Bastion this weekend and see if it clicks any better.

You don't have to play 1 to play 2, it's not a direct sequel, other than the fact that Elana and Sully are both in it. Plus IGN has a 5 minute recap video up on their site if you really want to see the story. Just stop when it gets done with part 1.

[Soulchilde]

Bastion
FM2011

Attending OtaKon With my nephew this weekend.  I will try to take some cosplay pictures

[skystride]

Bastion, Witcher 2 and as usual more League of Legends.

[Captain Caveman]

I'm currently hooked on Gothic 3.

It is 2006, right?

Damn, I wish it still was 2006.

I've just scraped the surface with ARMA2 f2p, so I think I'll try and get good enough this weekend to venture online. A buddy passed me a 360 game this week that I barely recollect being released - Call of Juarez Blood...er..something. It's by a Polish dev team that's built an earlier game around a P'n'P RPG I play, so I'm giving this one a whirl - so far so good. I'll also probably find a few hours for Champions Online, which much to my surprise I'm still playing and enjoying after almost a month.

[Autistic Angel]

I've realized there hasn't been a single moment spent with The Darkness or Spiderman: Shattered Dimensions when I wasn't wishing to be playing something else.  Or nothing else.  Nickelodeon has started airing reruns of the '90s sketch "comedy" show All That, and there's more entertainment in marveling at the abject stupidity of those Vital Information segments than anything in those crummy games.

Instead, I'll probably continue with Dungeon Siege III on the PC, my replay of inFamous 2 on the PS3, and play through the fourth chapter of Back to the Future.

[Caine]

probably a bit of bastion and from dust.  i got that free copy of men of war and arma 2 a while back and if the mood strikes, i might fire one of them up. 

i also have a few games from the recent steam sale that i need to visit

[MonkeyFinger]

Stepped away from FNV after it first came out and I got tired of running around in the REPCONN headquarters. Decided to start over with all the latest patches and having a better time not getting too sidetracked and staying on the main quest... mostly. About to hit the strip.

[mytocles]

Huh, thought I posted here already... must have been too busy playing Forsaken World!   

[Gratch]

Jumped back into The Last Remnant, continuing my love/hate relationship with this game.

EDIT:  Worst case of gamer ADD that I've had in a long time.  Spent at least an hour with each of the following over the weekend:

-  The Last Remnant (finally hit the wall with this game at the 19 hour mark)
-  Risen (hated it)
-  Dice Soccer on iPhone
-  Alice:  Madness Returns
-  Bastion
-  Forsaken World
-  Blur (well, I spent an hour trying to get the damn thing to recognize my gamepad...with no luck)
-  Dungeons of Dredmor
-  Also messed around a little bit with Elven Legacy and Bulletstorm

Ugh...need something to grab me that I can focus on.

[Azhag]

Playing the Rusty Hearts closed beta, and might do a bit of Forsaken World later

[KC]

Slowly working on Dungeon Siege 3 and checking out some of the Kinect add-on programs

[PR_GMR]

Played several games of 'League Of Legends', but sadly it was mostly a losing streak playing with bad PUG after bad PUG. Managed to get 10 mins of 'inFamous' in there last night.

[Morgul]

I have 246 hours racked up on Civ 5...

ugh

[metallicorphan]

didn't play Mass Effect or Uncharted 2,I...er....watched X-Files season 8 and 9 instead

But why??! Those are the worst seasons of it. I just reccommended to a friend who has started watching the series to stop watching at season 6. 

[Autistic Angel]

Instead, I'll probably continue with Dungeon Siege III on the PC, my replay of inFamous 2 on the PS3, and play through the fourth chapter of Back to the Future.

I did exactly this...plus I played another level in Spiderman: Shattered Dimensions.  Why?  I don't know...I guess I just wanted to be sure that Ultimate Spiderman suffered from the same unresponsive controls, ultra-mashy combat system, and tedious level design that Amazing, Noir, and 2099 Spidermen did.  He does. 

What a goddamn disaster this game is.  Its only redeeming quality is that each of the four Spidermen are voiced by different actors who've played the role in the past, so it's neat to hear them in close succession.  Otherwise, it isn't even slogging through for the Achievements.  Pfeh!

season 6 was one of the best seasons,7 is where he has to stop

I think you two are actually saying the exact same thing.
