What are you playing? (Redux)

[Habbaku]

Starting to get a handle on the maps for Darkest Hour.  Man, once you figure out how to use the BAR correctly, it's a beast.  Thompson SMG is sweet too, but no range.

Hell, once I got over the typical FPS urge to just run and gun everything and started taking cover like you're supposed to (and remain patient enough to take advantage of the cover while firing), my kills started skyrocketing.

I still need to find a decent gunner for when I drive tanks, though.

Been playing Bejeweled Twist and blew the dust off Deus Ex.

Thinking about putting the new lappy and connection through MMO paces, but I don't see any free ones that would hold my attention for more than 2 or 3 sessions and I really hate the idea of paying for access to WoW and its ilk.

Aion is going on Open Beta tomorrow
Champions Online is doing the same on Tuesday.

Try them out Banana.

Hey folks what's a good Superhero game. I've tried a few, most were kinda lame.

Playing the Trine demo. Awesome atmosphere.

Yes indeedy.

But the game? I had the idea that you would control 3 characters but it seems to be just 1 (with different abilities accessed by pressing 1, 2 or 3). The whole threesome thing seems to be just a gimmick. True?

I want to try out Champions Online, sadly I'm not willing to buy a Fileplanet subscription for it.

You can have all three in co-op mode.  You'd need 2 controllers hooked up to your computer in addition to the keyboard and mouse.  I played through the game alone using 1, 2, and 3.

This is probably my favorite PC game of the year so far.  It's great.

I suck at the tank maps. I always get blown up without even knowing where the enemy are

Caved and bought Sims 3 today. Expensive, but at least I'm not going to have to sink money into it every month.

I am: the Mono of the gaming world.

Been playing Escape Velocity Override lately.
Awesome old game.

Downloaded the latest demo version of Jutland, played The Duel where a german and a british dreadnought guns it out.

Oh, the shell-cam is pretty nice and hearing the closing enemy shells...

Must. Resist. Purchasing. Insulting DRM crap. Must...
