It's sad because I still really want to play WoW but I won't let myself get back on until I have some serious free time, b/c I know I'll spend all my time on it once I resubscribe.

QFT, I still miss WoW a lot. But I won't go back to it because it's too frustrating, and not nearly as fun, to be a "casual" player there...and I simply don't have the 20-30 hours per week to spend on it that I used to.

Beat Baldurs Gate 2 and started up TQ again. Have a high level Elementalist who's aquired a few nice Artifact recipes. Been farming with all my characters and sharing charms to get those damn things built. I'm glad they added storage and sharing in the expansion.

Yeah... And my gold actually gets spent instead of sitting there.

ive been playing a few games on and off:

PC:
Tiger Woods 08 (started on the tiger challenge first)
CS:Source (I suck at it but its fun none the less)
Everquest 1 (still log in from time to time, for oldschool mmo fun)

xbox 1:
NCAA Football 08 (just finished)
Madden 08 (started last night)
Lego Star Wars (with my kids)

Ninty Wii:
Wii sports (I love the bowling game mostly)

Ninty DS:
Sudoku Gridmaster
Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (About to start it)


Side-note: Somehow during Madden 08 on xbox 1, i got my first "dirty disk" error ever in the 6 years i've had the console. Dunno if this means the dvd drive is shot or what. No idea where to find a replacement dvd drive if i need one. We'll see if this error pops up more in the future. I would hate to lose the xbox 1 due to this, i have a ton of games for it i love playing on it. Its old but its good!

I have been playing that shooter for 3 years and still am. Tried to quit numerous times but kept coming back :laugh:.
Despite the poor netcode and patch issues its still a great multiplayer and I'm surprised that only a small percentage of buyers decided to play MP.

Nothing really specific. Just finished MOH Airborne [waaay too short IMHO] and Bioshock [which I'll replay since I just installed a DX10 video card]. Just pre-purchased orange box because I've yet to be disappointed by Valve...

Other than that - whatever new demo's are out [Jericho, Quake Wars, etc] to keep me busy in between releases.

I use to play MMO's - but grew tired of dealing with guild-politics, immature attitudes, and the significant amount of time wasted playing them.

Just started Bioshock, and I'm playing a season in NHL 08, which is pretty hard to distinguish from NHL 07 except for the good goaltending.

That reminds me... I still have yet to finish Farcry for the 1st time! Along with other games like FEAR, Riddick, Hitman Blood Money, Deus Ex, Unreal/Return to Napali... For now, I'm mostly occupied with Civ 4, and replaying Stalker for the 5th time

I'm addicted to Medieval II: Total War (vanilla, no Kingdoms), modified with DarthMod 1.4D Final Episode.

I tried the British and French campaigns at Hard/Hard, too tough.

So I tried Egypt, again at Hard/Hard, and now I'm kicking arses left and right. Egypt got LOTS of income right from the start, and after 50 Turns or so it gets ridiculously easy, again due to the income. Heck, I don't even NEED the Merchants at all. However I am not the top empire in my campaign. My main rivals is the Byzantine Empire right now, they are the first, I am second, third is Russia !

I am controlling 14 settlements right now, and 6 castles, all around Alexandria. Am I sharing borders with my only ally the Moors, and a previous ally, now neutral to me, the mighty Turks (they are the 4th power in my campaign, and the Moors something like 6th or 7th). Since the Moors are still allied with me and still trading goods with me I won't do any harm to them, but I didn't liked it when the Turks decided to suddenly become neutral, I fear they are preparing for war against me, but right now they are busy with Rebels (and me too).

I will prepare around two or three full stack armies soon, and I will send them by sea directly to the Byzantine Capital, and I will take it.

I'm into MapleStory and CS 1.6. Of course I would play F.E.A.R. single player and COH, but with my system....it runs OKish at 1152X864.

I USED to be addicted to RS. In fact, I think I played that for maybe 5 years...

Really old game.
BridgeIt.

where you construct bridges that are then tested with loads traveling across to see if they break.
Can get pretty challenging.
