- Going through another run of KOTOR, but the Steam version keeps crashing.
- Wings of Prey. Good stuff, fun. Has simulator settings for the hardcore crowd.
- Kings Bounty, but its not as good as Armored Princess. May give up.
- Making strategy guides for Heroes 3 and Disciples 2. Not any good guides that tell you HOW to use units, just lists of stats. Which is pointless because you can click on them in battle and out of battle to see the stats at any time.

- Waiting on: Disciples 3, Deus Ex 3, StarCraft 2.

The pan pipe mini games have a few quirks but nothing major. The rest of the game I really loved!

My mic must be blown or something, it just stutters when I blow into it. Whenever I am with the old dude playing a melody, it can take 2-3 hours to pass the melody. No kidding either.

I gave up. If I ever meet the moron who made this game, I am going to hit him with a bat in the face.

I'm playing KOTOR and TF2 mainly. KOTOR has been crashing on me periodically though, which is kind of frustrating.

I played a bit of Braid over the past while, which I really can't figure out because I'm a dumbass.

Tried Killing Floor briefly last night, but did not really like it much. Maybe I'll try the single player though to get a feel for it.

Fired up Indigo Prophecy briefly and hated the controls, but I'll give it another shot soon.

I think that's it. :hmm:

Braid I want to try soon as I like puzzle platformers but I understand it's a really tricky one. If I remember correctly it relies on you rewinding and playing back your own actions to solve puzzles. Really innovative, but I can see why that might be really really tough!

Is KOTR any good? I trust Bioware to make good games, loving Dragon Age, but I'm not much of a Star Wars fan.

I got a bunch of steam games, so the ones I'm currently in progress on are:

BioShock
Braid
Evil Genius
GTA4
Torchlight
World of Goo

Things I recently got also, but haven't even started up yet are:
Elder Scrolls III - Morrowind
Ghost Master
Mass Effect
Rome - Total War
STALKER
Trine
The Witcher

Too many things to play

I want to get Torchlight soon. How do you juggle so many games at once. Your like my dad with books, he has 5 or 6 going at any one time. I usually prefer to play and or read one book at a time. Otherwise I never finish any of them. Funny cause I'm great at multitasking in other areas of my life.

Star Trek Online (open beta) - impressed, but rumors of serious problems abound. I may or may not purchase this immediately at launch. Likely not. Really want an MMO wife and I can play. But she rocks a Mac and I won't play WoW.

Eve Online (21 day trial) recently had my friggin mind blown. GD that game is complicated!!!!!

Really? Not since Star Trek TNG A Final Unity back in 1995 have I heard of a good Trek game. BTW I still have the original box and everything for A Final Unity in my closet here.

if I could find some way to translate my Amex gift cards into Amazon gift cards, I'd love to start playing Dragon Age Origins.

You are correct with Braid. Tough but kind of cool.

KOTOR is awesome, I am just having a few difficulties with it crashing. Definitely worth a play though.

fight night rd 4 on PS3

starting with Uncharted - maybe tonight- as i have won mt first belt in Fight Night and am losing interest.

Locutus of Borg: KOTOR is great, one of the most enjoyable games I played through. very fun if you are a Star Wars fan. Played through KOTOR II as well, quite fun but I liked the first one more.

WoW and Modern Warfare 2 occasionally.

Me and the fiancee are trying to get from level 54 on our paladins to level 80 before Cataclysm.

Torchlight mostly.

Braid was awesome. Couple of the levels are pretty tough, but everything is definitely possible, and always makes you go "oh yeah" when you figure it out.

As far as board games, my wife and I were playing Agricola a bunch for awhile but haven't played for a couple weeks now.. should try it again. Thinking of going to drafting cards (rather than just dealing) now that we've played a lot and generally have a good idea of how the cards work.

Something about that game really messes me up. I don't think I'm a complete idiot, but this game pwns me. I have not even been able to complete the first area that has a piece out of the way. So lost. :\

I've been playing mostly torchlight and GTA4.

If I don't feel like playing one of those, I play one of the other ones
