I got Silent Victory in earlier this week.

Need to punch out the counters and start hunting Japanese shipping.  ^-^

The wife will be out of the house most of the day tomorrow and I got all my homework done so.... Something different for a change, either start CMRT's Russian campaign or go back to Skyrim to get some more Falmer ears. They make great coasters. But Sunday, it'll be wings, drinks, and football.

IronX

Definitely X-Com 2 and mebe some Steel Beasts Pro if I can work out how to update my vintage version of the game. I'll also spend the weekend loading games on my new PC, the first one I've owned in about five years. Like a kid in a candy store.  :D

I will be giving X-COM2 a try, finish up the tutorial in Evochron Legacy, play a bit of Helldivers co-op with friends, give American Truck a try.

Huw the Poo

Wurm Online.  I've kind of become the unofficial custodian of our alliance's academy so I have plenty of duties now, and I've just expanded the farm and started a few breeding programs, so plenty to do!

American Truck Simulator.  My truck simulator infatuation has begun all over again.  I took out a $100,000 loan so as long as I can complete just a couple more jobs without getting any goddamn speeding tickets I'll be able to buy my first truck and start my business! \o/

Going out tomorrow night so can't imagine I'll have time for much else.

Silent Disapproval Robot

8 player battle in Sails of Glory tonight.  Teaching some new players how to play X-Wing tomorrow.  Sighting in the new rifle on Sunday.  Some more Naval Action and Rise of the Tomb Raider as time permits.

I had every intention of getting sucked into XCOM 2 this weekend but after playing it for 45 minutes last night I returned it via Steam refund.

whoa, whoa, whoa!!! you cant just leave that unexplained!!

Without going into a rant of everything I don't like about it; its really just boils down to me not liking the mechanics. I like the mechanics of Xenonauts much more. I went in XCOM 2 blind, had I known they just copy and pasted XCOM UE/EW I probably would have passed.
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

I'm going to get both eventually and a few other titles all in due time.  I just setup an old 500 GB hard drive on the system so now I've got plenty of space to download a bunch of Nintendo goodness.

Okay that's reasonable -- EU/EW does change and simplify a lot of the original UFO/X-com mechanics, which is a big reason why Xenonauts (and some other things) went on into development anyway.

I didn't like some of the changes, but I could live with them in exchange for some other things (like high grade production values); and on PCs they can be modded, which XCOM2 was designed from scratch for. (With the Long War team offering some preliminary mods out of the gate.) But if I just couldn't accept the changes, and didn't want to (or couldn't) mess with modding, and/or thought the mods didn't or couldn't do enough, I'd not buy either, or refund on discovering changes remained the same.  O:-)

@Cyrano - If you're up for it, I may want you for scenario testing as and when the scenario sees the light of day. Clue: I've got to find a way to properly represent black powder rifles and the same for bees... ;)
