Any gaming time I get this weekend will be with CiV Gods & Kings.

[mirth]

I've been in a video game funk, nothing's been appealing. I'm actually replaying the entire Mass Effect series now, mainly to fill some time.

War in the East
Solitaire
Leapfrog
Basketball
Skylanders: Spyro's Journey

WitpAE PBEM
Iron Front
Flying Colors (board game)
BUT MOSTLY Napoleon's Campaigns -- which I had years ago on a Computer far, far away and I'm happy to be back at it having purchased it again

What really happened wasn't too far off my guess except that beating Napoleon was such a puzzling experience that I took a break and played a few hours of CMBN.  Iron Front, not so much.

Booyah!  I just started playing ME3 a few weeks ago.  Never played 1 or 2 but I'm really liking this game, especially how multiplayer helps you out in the single player story.  Get out of your funk man!  There is a whole world of gaming goodness waiting for you on Xbox!

I'm definitely going to be playing ME3 this weekend but first I gotta finish up my Civilization Revolutions game in which I keep falling asleep at thus preventing me from finishing.  For the past three nights in a row now, I wake up on the floor at 1 a.m. with drool coming out of my mouth, controller on the floor, and Xbox auto turned off. 

I'll probably play some Ghost Recon Future Soldier online to level up my Engineer.

Finally, I will be playing my Armada 2526 PBEM with my fellow Grogheads.

We gotta try a MP game of Civ Rev. I've played Rev alot but never MP.

[LongBlade]

I will probably go see Brave with Daughter #2. Doubt I'll get any gaming in.

[Gusington]

...and a new sig is born^. I will be playing Pong, Freecell and Solitaire all weekend. Or Civ V.

[W8taminute]

Yeah!  Let's give it a try and see how it works.  I've never played MP either but have put in a lot of time in single player.  Message me  when I'm online.  I plan on being online tonight and tomorrow night.

...and a new sig is born^.

Whoohoo!  I've made it on someone's signature!  I feel honored.

Gods & Kings - Not sure if I will continue on with the steampunk scenario or start a new regular game.
Last Remnant

[Gusington]

^What don't you like about the steampunk scenario?

[Silent Disapproval Robot]

Well, I THOUGHT I was going to play some Shogun 2 Fall of the Samurai on my new PC.  Turns out I can't because the game doesn't work with AMD's new flagship card, the 7970.

Why they're allowed to splash "AMD optimized" on the game's loading screen is beyond me but needless to say, I'm not too happy about it.  Apparently, this has been a known issue for several months, affects pretty much all 7970 users, and neither AMD nor Creative Assembly seem able or willing to solve it. 

[Gusington]

^Damn. Believe it or not I have read about that. Sorry. It's been an issue since the game first launched IIRC.

I was going deep sea fishing in the gulf - 10 hour trip.  But the big storm means 7-9 foot seas and 35 knot wind gusts - so that is dead.

Probably work on my PanzerCorps strategy guide and start Warlock which I bought on sale.
