Just had my second Vassal game of Lock 'n Load: Band of Heroes http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/18460/lock-n-load-band-of-heroes. Godd**n! is that a fun game. Other than that I'm in the early stages of beating Plants vs. Zombies for the 3rd time.

Oh, my Vassal opponent also loves For the People http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/833/for-the-people. I own that as well and can't wait to play it soon.

Due to RL/work going to finally download some of my Steam Summer Sale purchases (ARMA2, TOH/Hind, Skyrim). And with the Olympjcs starting, not sure how much time I'll have for gaming this weekend...

In addition to my World of WarCraft & World of Tanks dailies and my EVE Online training queue, I will probably be playing Civilization V and Warlock: Master of the Arcane. Then there's the likelihood of playing Majesty Gold HD that I finally downloaded and installed today (as well as the possibility of playing some of the other games I haven't downloaded that I've purchased over the past year!).
Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.

secret world and some total pro golf 3.

How's the golf game?  Torn on whether to pick it up.

never played tg1 or tg2 so cant compare. i just enjoy the rpg aspect of it. so in the latest game your "lifestyle" determines how fast you regen stamina. so you can purchase cars, houses and set your diet. the community has mods available so i will be picking those up once the game is officially released.

Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Tomorrow I am playing yard work...  :-\    Then I hope to get some multiplayer of ARMA II, Day Z or Warlock in.  Also some boardgames may be involved.

Been playing Shoot Many Robots, which is a fun little diversion actually.

I put about 10 hours in to Sniper Elite 2, but...yeah, I'm done with that. Too many little annoyances added up to it just becoming a slog.

I'm thinking it's time for either an RPG or a strategy game. So...maybe Fallout New Vegas or Wargame : European Escalation?

ARMA 2.   Concluded my long patrol / raid mission... It took more than 3 hours to complete across several sessions.

Seriously DDO is freaking addictive.  I know there are a ton of D&D gamers here perhaps we could setup a static group to play?  It's free well not for me I pay but I've more than gotten my moneys worth out of a year subscription so far.

Civilization IV:  Am still going through the tutorial.  Want to start a full campaign after that, but haven't decided on a nation yet. 


Crusader Kings 2:  Ireland, here I come! 


Armada 2526 Supernova:  Just started a singleplayer campaign as the Qa-Qa Assembly (kicking it old-school), and of course my usual PBEM games with my fellow Grogs.

I'd definitely be interested.  Haven't played D&D regularly for far too long now, and continue to suffer from withdrawal!

Skyrim: I finished the legion quest line and have begun to concentrate more on the main quest line. After I finish the main quest, I'm thinking of starting a new character. I'm debating between starting a mystic warrior/battlemage or a pure mage.

Crusader Kings II: Started a new game as Castile last night. First thing to do is take central Spain from the Muslims.

Tribes: Ascend: It's tribes. Jetpacks, skiing, spinfusers, its all there. I haven't bought any weapons or items with real money. I think I would rather just unlock them myself.

Diablo 3: I've taken a small break over the last month after getting my two main characters to 60 and to Act I of Inferno.

Steel Battalion: The MechWarrior Online closed beta for people who bought the founders pass starts August 7th. I want to play something to get me in the mood. I've also been reading some of the newer battletech novels.
PanzersEast: Have to think to myself.... will I play the first one by the Winter Sale?  Probably not, then I should remove Dragonfall
PanzersEast: but that is thinking too logically.... and Steam Sales are about ignoring Logic
