The Weekend Playlist -- 1/14/11

[PR_GMR]

It's.... The Weekend Playlist.. pushing your gaming hobby since 1963.. that year in which.. mmmm.. we seem to have no historical data today! Oh, well! We'll fix that next week for you.

So what will be your gaming pleasure? Myself.. I'm on the road this weekend, visiting a good friend in Pittsburgh. So, no gaming for me this weekend. I'm bringing my DS just in case I can squeeze in an hour of Dragon Quest IX. How about you?

[Morgul]

Black ops and need for speed (whatever the latest one is)

[Larraque]

I have Alan Wake from gamefly that I intend to finish this weekend. Probably will get some L4D 1 and 2 in as well (as usual). Round it out with some Rock Band.

[JayDee]

Same as since Christmas.

Black Ops
AssCreed: Bros
Rock Band 3

I am going away on Monday for about 10-11 days,so i was wondering what i should play,in the last week i have played Mass Effect(+Bring down the sky DLC),Mass Effect 2(no DLC) and Bioshock 2(No DLC) and finished them all...so i am wondering if i could fit on KOTOR1 and 2 in before i have to go away

EDIT:oh and i am gonna try Call of Duty 2 online this weekend sometime seen as though there has been a sale on the map packs,hopefully i will find more than one person like usual

Risen
LotRO maybe get my RK up to 65.

I'm going to be changing a lot of diapers. I haven't figured out how to get any gaming time in with a newborn yet.

I have three kids, you play when they are asleep. Which with a newborn maybe limited to 20 minute play sessions.

[CeeKay]

I guess I'll play some more Divinity 2 on the PC, and WoW seems to be relegated to weekend playtiem lately so some of that too.

[PeteRock]

As I've finished Fable III (fun up until the ruling portion) I've gotten hooked back on NFS:Hot Pursuit, always wanting to try just one more race, either to best a time from my Friends list or to earn gold if I fall short.  I may take the shrink wrap off of Mass Effect 2 or Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood but I'm not so sure I'll have the time.  And then the spring semester starts on Tuesday.  Anatomy/Physiology and Organic Chemistry will probably be the primary games I devote most of my time to until May.   

[CeeKay]

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood

I think some people were going to try and get some MP going for that this weekend, and it'd be fun to stick a shiv in your back 

[JayDee]

....it'd be fun to stick a shiv in your back

*snicker*

[Jarrodhk]

Hopefully some Black Ops if people are on when I am (and paying attention), ZHP post-game stuff. Maybe pick up Cladun: This is an RPG.

Possibly some Starpoint Gemini/Diablo II Median XL mod.

Maybe some older stuff, haven't played DOA4 in a while. I love 3 day weekends.

edit: Median XL, not Meridian XL... <shrug>

[Kagath]

If I have time this weekend and in no particular order...

BlOps - 360- MP In the 6th prestige ~lvl30. SP I wouldn't mind getting a few more achievements. Like to play more Zombies as well sometime.
Fallout 3 - PC - Heading to the monument now but getting sidetracked as usual.
FEAR Perseus Mandate - PC - Been stagnate on this for a long time and fired it back up yesterday as no net access. Pretty short so should be able to finish off this weekend.

May fire up Mass Effect if I get FEAR done.

[Isgrimnur]

BlOps.  I got everything I need for Ninja Pro except the backstabs, and I need some more Offense medals.

I have not mastered this. Plus, somebody (the maid, probably) stole my bluetooth headphones, so no quiet gaming for me for now.

[Gratch]

Trying to push through and wrap up Enslaved, even though I'm not really liking it that much.  I'm on Chapter 11 of 14, so I doubt there's more than a few more hours left.  Will probably fire up another Hinterlands round, while deciding whether or not I want to dig in to the Divinity 2 expansion.

I would say 2 hours max. The last chapter doesn't have much.

[jersoc]

WoW
WoW
Some rock band. Finally got my cymbals fixed. Pro drums is epic
WoW
Divinity 2.

I think i'll toss in some WoW too if I have time.

[CeeKay]

Thanks to jztemple it looks like I might be firing up minecraft too.

Thanks a lot jz 

[shon]

Just beat Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones so I have beaten every POP except the Dreamcast one, Prince of Persia 3D.  Going back and playing an older version was a little difficult since game play has changed quite a bit over the years some frustrating points and one place I had to lower my graphic settings to get past one point but it was a good game and a great series.

Z.H.P. Unlosing Ranger
Vanquish
Fallout New Vegas
Zelda: Twilight Princess

[Caine]

not much as i am under the weather again due to stupid sick people at work and on the bus.  

maybe some minecraft.  have to fortify against the spiders now.

[Big Jake]

Wow (might even try a bg or instance this weekend!) 
Parasite Eve
Killzone 2 (finishing out the campaign - this game becomes a chore to play sometimes)
And I might try that fanpatch of Hellgate:London...

Sat down to try and finish this last night, and I just can't generate any interest in it at all.  So much wasted potential with this game.

only got in a little time with Divinity 2 because I realized I had Singularity installed on my PC from when I bought it during the Steam holiday sale, and it's better than I expected.  Also fired up Arx Fatalis for the first time.

[Gratch]

After playing such great looking titles, it sure is hard going back to games that are a few years old.  Tried playing Jedi Academy and PoP: The Two Thrones tonight, and they're both just so clunky that I have a hard time getting into them.  I also tried the new Prince of Persia (the cell-shaded one) and managed to get completely stuck on my very first boss fight.  The game tells me that magic and swords can't hurt him so I have to use the environment, but I can't find a single thing in the combat area that I can interact with.  Spent 20 minutes walking in circles, blocking his attacks, and looking for something - anything - that I could use to hurt him.  Not a clue what the hell I'm supposed to do...not a good first impression.

Oddly, I've spent a ton of time with Hinterland, which doesn't fare much better in the graphics department, but has a ton of "personality" and is a blast to play.  Finished my first large map last night, now will try bumping up the difficulty a bit.

[Isgrimnur]

I spent entirely too much time causing mayhem in Just Cause 2 the last couple of nights.

[Kagath]

Got in some BlOps and started a replay of Mass Effect. Vanguard this time on Veteran. Was a soldier on easy my first time on a different account.

Do ME saves transfer to other hard drives? I have a 250gb I want to get around to using.

[Caine]

not much as i am under the weather again due to stupid sick people at work and on the bus.  

maybe some minecraft.  have to fortify against the spiders now.

pretty much just minecraft, but not to guard against the spiders.  we spent the weekend building up an almost completely self-sustaining base in the ocean with multiple above and below surface floors and an underground rail line back to the mainland. 

[KC]

I started the Force Unleashed 1.

[Greggy_D]

I started RDR over and got in about 9 hours.

Copy the save to a USB thumb stick.

you know, I played a bunch of minecraft also on Friday Night/Saturday morning but for some reason it's not sticking out as anything notable.
