    Playing Drakensang now. Looks ok so far. Not to fond of how the camera works though. And it seems that mosts quests in the game are the diablo kind. Go from A to B, and kill somehing\ or find some object\person. Npc`s that join you don`t seem to ever say a word either. Graphics is good though. Better than Nwn2, but not not too much. The ruleset in the game, seems solid though. Refreshing to play something thats not d&d. Although the character creation thingy is dreadfull.

    This far I will give it a 6 out of 10. Ok effort. But its not BG, I can tell you that much.

    Playing god hand at the moment. I've played and loved devil may cry, ninja gaiden etc etc, but there is something about god hand that really takes the cake. Awesome fun and humor with what is possibly the best fighting system and outrageous moves I've ever seen in a game

    Next in line will probably be a no merchant run through RE4, and after that either IWD2, BG2, x-com apocalypse or dungeon keeper 2. I have no need of a next gen system yet with all the old games I feel like replaying. My computer doesn;t even have a dedicated video card

    Drakensang. I love the scenery and music. beyond that, I'm about to start over for the 4th time and still am not sure how much I like the game......it is promising though.

    playing a lot of starcraft:BW theses days, me and about 4 other friends got it so a lot of 1v1 and 2v2 going on, i ususally play as zerg and a bit of terran, cant stand the holy protoss.

    also a bit of diablo 2, playing with a few friends over hamachi-lan only playing us 3, as to not get tainted by the battle.net economy and ruin the fun

    Resident Evil 5... is AWESOME! It is the best game for the PS3 so far, in my opinion. Best co-op game, hands down too. My friend and I are on our 3rd run through, and I have had the game for 1 week :D

    Taking a break from my Baldur's Gate 1 replay, and am currently playing Drakensang.

    Fun game, but a little railroaded, particularly in the conversations - you don't really have choices in conversations, especially when there's plot reveals. The only time you might get a different option is when you have speech skills that might affect certain characters. But usually you have just one option.

    Still, it is rather fun, and has kept me playing for a few days already. :)

    Neverwinter nights 2, playing the module or rather campaign: Fate of a City, while waiting for MoW to be released. it is a really well made module, with some very well written dialogs and NPC's. one of the best modules I have played for nwn2.

    also playing the Witcher, which is another well made RPG.

    Going through Fallout 3 on the X-Box for the first time. Good stuff. Thankfully I have levelled up from 'Ambassador of Peace'. I think I could feel my testosterone levels sink when we discovered that was my title. Urgh.

    The game had bugs but it's a gem of a RPG. Magic is overpowered though.


    Anyway I gave up and started playing an MMORPG. EVE to be exact. Addictive little game.

    Hmm, my sister's ex was and iirc is a big fan of that one. Be careful, I think it eats a lot of time. It ate too much of his for her liking, apparently - and she's as big a WoW fan as any relatively sane person I have seen.

    Been playing Oblivion for a while now. It's a much improved experience over the vanilla game so far, now that I've added mods to undo the level scaling, improve the inventory screens, and add a few tidbits to add a little extra flavour to the game.

    I dusted off my old copy of Diablo 2 the other day. Still fun, still addictive.

    Click, click, click, click, click, stuff, click, click, stuff, click, click, click, stuff, click, click, click, stuff, click.

    Just about to finish the Fell wood (IWD2). That is an awful, awful place. Though not quite as bad as the forest from Vagrant Story.

    I also have to try and get back to The Witcher. It's not as easy to play while eating/ drinking though :yum::beer:.
