Weekend Gamer - What are You Playing?

[Jetherik]

After a very stressfull week, this weekend will be filled with some serious hours playing computer games. WoW will be topping the list. Sunday's gaming will be interrupted by the SUNS-Spurs matchup, and family stuff. What will you be playing this weekend?

[Evil Avatar]

Lego Star Wars and Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. Notice a theme?

[Tricky Thumb]

Phantom Brave, Forza Motorsport and possibly some Rise of Nations.

Been wanting to play Auto Assault, but that doesn't seem to be happening anytime soon.

[EGO]

Love EP3, while it lasted... I'll get back to it when some friends come over for a little Jedi-vs-Sith dueling! The Multiplayer kicks ass!

Now playing (or getting back to playing): Resident Evil 4 GC, God of War PS2, Doom 3 Ressurection of Evil PC

...Wishing I was playing Killzone-PS3!

[Syl]

DDR.
When i'm too tired for that, more guild wars.

[Nesta]

Seeing Oblivion at E3 makes me want to go find a copy of Morrowind and play the shizzle out of it. But until I do, I will be finishing up Jade Empire so I can trade it in for either Forza or Brothers in Arms.

I'll look for a few games of CS:S if I can find a server playing de_port. That's one fantastic map right there. It seems like every match I play on it is different. So many tactics to choose from on either side. Good stuff.

[bapenguin]

Forza, finishing Splinter Cell Chaos Theory. Guild Wars.

[KamaItachi]

I got a hold of fallout last week and am enjoying it to hell and back. This is what I've wanted from RPGs for ages except interplay did it almost 10 goddamn years ago.

[PIPBoy3000]

Well, I'd like to get some time to play KotOR2 and get that puppy finished. The reality is that guilt will probably make me continue work on my little game (http://adamandjamie.com/da).

by the way, was anything said about dragonage or nwn2 at e3?

anyways, busted out some DS/GBA games to mess around with this weekend. dunno if i'll have time for much else.

[Klade]

Psychnauts and a game I just picked up called Advanced Battlegrounds which is appearntly Chrome in a new box with the patches. I'm enjoying the game except for the part where it crashes and hard locks my computer every hour or so.

[Nikells]

Guild Wars! :)

[Joshinji]

Growlanser II...a surprisingly really good game. Shouldn't of doubted Working Designs.

[Darkbase]

Halo2 and Psychonaughts
btw, is there an EvAv clan for Halo2?

[Rafer]

Hey I'm playing Psychonauts too :), really good so far. I hear it's not selling great which is a real shame, gamers complain about unoriginal sequels but when an original game comes around it gets ignored.

[Furious Wang]

Castlevania Sotn Viewtiful Jow 2 and Forza's Motors.

[president_fred]

I am without a computer or consoles as I am on vacation. So it is the occasional GBA game on my DS anyone got any GBA games they recommend particularly RPG (tactical or otherwise, not FF:T or AdvW), Strategy, adventure or a very good action game?

[TrackZero]

Just finished off Mechassault 2. Half-way through Psychonauts now and I'm also back on the WoW bandwagon after a month off, started a new toon on a PvE server (since the PvP honor system is still too much for me to handle).

[TrackZero]

Yeah, it's Beyond Good and Evil all over again. You can't give the bloody game away, not enough tits and guns for the teenagers to feel like men playing it.

[Thunderbrand]

Got Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil, so I'll give it a whirl in-between playing Half-Life 2 over again.

[TacRod]

Hunting vampires on Morrowind (with a bunch of mods). After all this time I still find new places and loot. I don't really like fantasy settings or RPGs, but despite this Morrowind is one of my most-played games ever. I can't wait for Oblivion.

[TheBrainKills]

I just started Beyond Good and Evil yesterday, and am trying to finish up Prince of Persia SoT, both on the Cube. As well as Guild Wars of course.

[Draft]

Just finished RE4 on Pro, so it's either Ninja Gaiden, or my massive, massive catalogue of unfinished games. Just off the top of my head, I still have to beat:

Breakdown
Red Dead Revolver
MGS: Twin Snakes (which sucks, btw)
Otogi 2
Silent Hill 4
The Thing
PoP: Sands of Time
Legacy of Kain: Defiance
Jet Set Radio Future
Paper Mario

[TrackZero]

MGS: Twin Snakes (which sucks, btw)


Maybe you and I played different versions of the game. Because the one I played kicked ass. I never tried the original on the Playstation, only MGS2:Substance on the Xbox before it, so much of the story was new to me.

[Draft]

The new cutscenes are hilariously stupid, and the overemphasis on first person shooting practically ruins half the game. Encounters that used to be fun and exciting are now boring as shit because you cna just stand in one place and shoot with pin point precision. NOT TO MENTION, with all the first person shooting you do, they could not have picked a worse button to put you in that mode. Any designer who actively tries to use the Z button in gameplay should be beaten.

[screwtape]

I was fortunate enough to have bought a copy of Morrowind for my brother some years ago, so I went and un-gifted it. I am now in RPG bliss.

[i aint yer pa]

Guild Wars. And... Guild Wars so more.

[S77]

After a full week of gaming news. I'll be playing nuthin'. Information overload has reduced my gaming drive. Weekend recovery is required.

[teh_bear]

I'm about 5 hours into Jade Empire so i'll try to make some progress there...pretty fun so far. I also started a game of Hunter the Reckoning: Redeemer with my friend the other day, surprisingly fun co-op, so we'll probably continue with that tonight along with some PES4 action.

Still chugging along unlocking planets in Meteos on the DS. I'm getting a bit tired of it tho, so Touch! Kirby will probably be sneaking into the DS pretty soon.

And then i still have unfinished saves in HL2 and Doom3 on the PC (just never got around to finishing them with school and all) and Fable and Riddick on Xbox, so i have plenty of stuff to do over the next weeks :)

[PIPBoy3000]

Not a peep about either Dragon Age or NWN2. Bioware dropped more hints about Jade Empire for the PC, but didn't show off Dragon Age at all. They're likely still waiting for a publisher, who will want to be involved with the PR of Dragon Age.

I was really hoping for some screenshots from NWN2. There's some speculation that Atari wanted to show off D&D Online without any internal competition.

[Evil Avatar]

How is Guild Wars? I've got a copy I haven't opened yet.

[Liquidize105]

How is Guild Wars? I've got a copy I haven't opened yet.
Send it to me, I'll open it.

I play a lil Natural Selection, nothing much. I don't multitask several games at once.

[Draft]

I have guild wars and don't really like it. If anyone's interested in buying my copy, send me a PM. Keep in mind I bought it online, so all I have is a CD-Key and I'd basically be transferring my account. $40.

[Pumped'Up]

$40? LOL why not just buy it new? sheesh.

Anyways, finishing up God of War, HL2, D3:RoE, BiA (PC), and a few sessions of Diablo 2 on b.net. I was thinking of picking up GT4 - it's on sale here...

[Draft]

$40? LOL why not just buy it new? sheesh.Cause it's $10 less... Jesus, you are a genuine retard.

[Xaerin]

Just finished RE4 on Pro, so it's either Ninja Gaiden, or my massive, massive catalogue of unfinished games.

I dunno bout the others but I'd go for red dead revolver, you could probably get that completed in a day of solid play. A good game while it lasts.

I just picked up metroid prime and predator:concrete jungle so I'll be working through those. only played the first couple of levels in predator so far and already the camera is pissing me the hell off but it's the predator! so I can live with it for all the cloaking/shoulder cannon/multiple vision mode action.
kinda reminds me of blood omen 2. which may or may not be a good thing depending on your views.

[agentgray]

How is Guild Wars? I've got a copy I haven't opened yet.
Man, you have got to play with us. The EA guild has around 30 members now and we're all pretty supportive.

It would only make sense that Evil Avatar himself would be on.

;)

[Hijinx]

Well, I'm gonna get some more lvls under my belt in Forza and get creative with the amazing amount of layer options for the cars.

After that I'll continue some Guild Wars action and wrap it up with Oddworld Stranger.

[mister_slim]

I got a hold of fallout last week and am enjoying it to hell and back. This is what I've wanted from RPGs for ages except interplay did it almost 10 goddamn years ago.
Same here. Found the OSX port for $12 and had to pick it up. Macplay (macplay.com) has a bunch of games at clearance right now, for an 'Mac gamers' out there. Also working on Minish Cap, Polarium and Tactics Ogre.

[Everlost_MI]

I am just about to start playing Dungeon Lords, which will keep me busy until GTA:SA comes out for Xbox in a few weeks.

[Liquidize105]

I have guild wars and don't really like it. If anyone's interested in buying my copy, send me a PM. Keep in mind I bought it online, so all I have is a CD-Key and I'd basically be transferring my account. $40.
How about I trade you something for it?

[Murmillo]

Guild Wars, Guild Wars.. and just maybe some more Guild Wars if I'm able to get some time in between the other two sessions of Guild Wars. Not even WoW has strung me up this bad.

You can basicly count GW into my weekly gaming until one of the following comes out DS2, NWN2, ES4:Oblivion

[AbeLincoln]

Lego Star Wars. It really suprised me. Not with how good it is (and it is) but how effective an advertising tool it was on me. I want to buy a set for one of those clone transport ships now!

[dolemite]

Cause it's $10 less... Jesus, you are a genuine retard.


I got mine at Target for $39.99. And I wasn't called names when I paid the cashier! ;)

[Blue]

Rented Ep 3: ROTS for something to play over the weekend (and as it is Star Wars week, I obviously got caught up in the fever) and ended up beating it after 4 hours so was then in need of something else to do. So, in a fit of desperation, I hopped on WoW and made an Undead Warrior in the hopes of somehow living out my Sith tendencies, however futile. Ain't the real-deal, but at least it's something.

Hoping to play some multiplayer ROTS tomorrow as dueling the computer gets old after about five minutes. We'll see.

[riposte101]

Been playing some Forza.

[RandomViolence]

Wow, Halo 2, Phantom Dust

Anyone on Dragonmaw in here?

[Morratut]

I've just bought a 2nd hand Gamecube and now playing Resident Evil 4. Loving it. Definitley a contender for best graphics this generation if not the best.

Also a bit of Forza too.

[A-Team]

Cause it's $10 less... Jesus, you are a genuine retard.
I don't think he realized that you could download the game, which would save the other person a few extra bucks in S&H and make that one of hell a deal.

You actually save a little more than that when compared to buying it in the store anyway. I think my copy was like $53 or something from EB.

[Bydo_Empire]

A little God of War here and there, and I picked up some used games cheap at Blockbuster (buy 2 get 1 free), so I might be playing Wario Ware, Project Gotham 2, or 1080: Avalanche later tonight.

[MrMeatshake]

personally, Halo2 and Splinter Cell:CT. loving splinter cell - only just realised you no longer have to grab people to knock them out, and i'm on the 3rd mission :o. will have to get some SC on live soon.

and populous II. which i got off home of the underdogs (http://www.the-underdogs.org/). quality, though much more repetitive than i remember! (make some flat land, make some flat land, make some flat land, get a castle, make some flat land, make some...).

also trying to decide whether to get lego star wars or forza next.

Halo2 and Psychonaughts
btw, is there an EvAv clan for Halo2?

there sure is - just PM bapenguin or send him a message ingame to get an invite ;)
