The Weekend Playlist -- 2/24/12

[PR_GMR]

It's.... The Weekend Playlist.. encouraging your gaming hobby since... mmm, that's ood. Looks like the system didn't feed me any historical factoid(tm) data today. Ok. We shall move on!

So what will be your gaming pleasure this weekend? Me.. *sigh*. I'm having computer problems. My graphics card is dying and I will have to go out and get a cheap replacement a.s.a.p. otherwise 'no gaming' for me. No League Of Legends or Skyrim this weekend.. which is what I would play as soon I replace the damn card.

How about you?

Moving my office to the basement on Saturday, so I probably won't have much gaming time.  What is available will be spent with Amalur...really need to finish that up before ME3 hits.  Then I'll need to finish ME3 before Xenoblade Chronicles hits.  On and on and on...

Ah, the Circle of RPG. 

[Laner]

I'm going to try to finish up my renegade playthrough of ME2 before ME3 hits.

started Mass Effect 2 with all the DLC,see how long it takes me,ME1 took 27hrs to do everything and that surprised me i am thinking ME2 will be a lot longer

I pulled the trigger on a Geforce GTX 550 Ti at Best Buy tonight. More card than that I wanted to buy, but I'm replacing a dying Geforce 9800 GT and didn't want to purchase a cheap 'downgrade' card. This way I'll be ready for Guild Wars 2, Diablo III and any of the big games coming out this year. This card will do me for a good while.

finishing up Mass Effect 2, then going to work on either Crysis 2 or Dragon Age 2 or Alice Madness Returns or Kingdoms of Amalur or Alan Wake on the PC.  maybe some AssCreedRev or Brutal Legend on the 360 and something on the Wii-  feeling kinda nostalgic so maybe a new Virtual Console title.

Singularity - 360 - Not a AAA title but entertaining enough so far. Some neat effects. Probably 2/3 done so far. I'll get the low hanging achievements and move on.
Too Human - 360 - Haven't touched this lately. Want to get back to it at some point though.
BF3 - 360 - Still playing this.

[Kagath]

Finished off Singularity. Wasn't really any people playing MP (not surprising) so I'll probably shelf it for now to try for the MP specific achievements later. Got some time in on BF3. Almost finished off the Recon for my first Star.

Probably start something else shortly. Thinking either Nier or Alan Wake. May just return to Darksiders as I stalled on that before. Find something relatively short so I can keep on the roll of clearing backlog items.

Put a few more hours into Amalur, finished up the House of Ballads line and jumped back into the main quest.  It's starting to wear a bit thin at the 22-hour mark...I may just try to plow through the main quest at this point rather than getting distracted by every single side mission like I have been.

Got through Season 10 on my Baseball Superstars 2012 career (iPhone).  Oh, and I bought a Vita as well.  Wi-fi issues aside, it's an awfully cool little unit.

Didn't get to play squat for the last 7 days 
This is week need to catch up on some gaming!

[PR_GMR]

No games were played this weekend (worked all weekend..exhausting), but I did install the new graphics card last night and my 'puter is now running awesome. Can't wait to run 'Skyrim', 'Mass Effect 3' and 'Guild Wars 2' in full-blow settings!

[Isgrimnur]

After deleting and re-d/l Just Cause 2, I finally got it to launch, and my progress was saved.  I just cracked the 75% completion mark.  One air race that gave me a jet plane to start, I ended up finishing by buying a chopper and hitting the marks that way.

None for me, either.  Saturday was spent in an exhausted stupor after getting absolutely zero sleep Friday night.  Sunday we had an all-day softball tournament, so I got some "gaming" in, just not virtual.

got busy, so I only got some ME2 time in.  finished the main quest, and only have the Shadowbroker and Arrival DLC left.

Finished off Dead Space 2 late in the week, and it made it into my top 5 from last year. Holy crap was that thing entertaining. I also DL'd Deus EX: HR on steam as it was only $10 and thus far I'm liking it. It's a little crash happy for my taste, but overall it's a heck of a lot of fun. Also fired up Psychonauts again on steam and played through the first bit in the camp. Not as funny as I remember, but I did recall it being a bit slow at the start. Still fun after all this time. Although to add insult to injury, apparently I don't have the steam achievements for Half Life 2 even though I played through it like three times. I'm guessing I just never played through it on PC once the Orange Box hit so another run through will have to commence post haste.

I did, however, recently discover Depths of Peril courtesy of EdX's glowing review of it. Wow. It's Diablo but with competing in-town guilds (who will absolutely raid your guild if you're not all up on your diplomacy skills), and monsters in the field can, if left unchecked, form their own groups and really mess up your day. Overally, it's terrific. Thanks Ed!
