I only have three games installed on my SSD right now:

TF2
L4D2
Batman: AC

I play the last two the most, but I have a bunch more games that I bought and have never installed. Need to get around to those at some point.

I am playing Fallout 2 right now, and when I get my Steam account back I will probably go back to playing New Vegas.

I really hope you get your account back I feel your pain and can only imagine how a loss like that would feel perhaps it would be akin to losing a loved one. Good to see a fellow waste lander all the best.

League of Legends, Path of Exile, RaiderZ beta (starting tomorrow :),) and various steam shooters to change the pace.
Looking forward to GW2 and TL2 in the near future!

Right now I'm playing BF3 & D3. Recently picked up the Doom pack so I'll prob give those another go pretty soon. I'll prob. pickup Torchlight 2 since it comes with 1 and give that a shot. Looks to be fun so looking forward to checking it out. I'll also try and get into Fallout 3 & Vegas since I just picked up Vegas. I played about an hour of Fallout 3 and didn't really get into it, but I want to give it another shot.

Right now, nothing much except some flash games at armor games. I uninstalled Diablo 3 a month or so ago and put gaming on hold. Waiting on Borderlands 2 to come out and am trying to decide if I will get the new Madden. Till then, its casual stuff.

Currently I am playing a game called "Silly Buggers", but mainly I play that at work. At home I am playing a game called "Sodall!" which just isn't business appropriate.

I'd recently started another new Mount and Blade: Warband game, was playing vanilla.

I've also recently started playing EU3 as Muscovy

I've recently went through a stint of openttd and simultrans.

Also recently I'd been poking around with x3: Albion Prelude

Probably going to try some EU3 mods as I haven't really tried any of them in aa year or so ...

Otherwise I fire up Minecraft for maybe an hour every couple of weeks just to mess around.

Played D3 for one playthrough and have not had the desire to go back. From there I started Skyrim and have put over 150 hours into it, level 59 at the moment with all the major questlines complete. Want to move on to something else but the game has a pretty firm grip on me. Starting to dabble with assassins creed 2 as well as DKS and Reckoning but havent made a commitment to any of them yet. Play tribes ascend for a multiplayer fix. Favorite game of all time is without a doubt tribes 2, second place for me is NHL 94 on sega genesis, against friends it was a blast. Wish I had more time to play though, I am currently sitting on dozens of pc games that I havent even played, amazon and steam sales are killing me I almost feel obligated to purchase shit when its as cheap as a cheesy cell phone game.

Red Orchestra 2 has been my main game as of late, especially since my girlfriend turned me on to some great orchestral music that goes awesome with the game (Shostakovich especially!).

Played the latest build of the Forgotten Hope 2 mod for Battlefield 2 the other day, which was pretty awesome, since they have some servers modded to run over 64 players now. One round I played had 110! I wasn't too turned on by BF3: Close Quarters, so I've been meaning to jump back into some vanilla BF2 and probably some BF2142.

Playing 16 bit right now. I won't revisit modern games again until the Call of Duty / military shooter disease dies off.

Or just wait for EA and Activision to kill the golden goose and hang themselves, then gaming will be fun again.

That is a very close minded post.

A) There are plenty of good modern games out there, especially not from EA or Activision. Waiting for just one game series/type of game to die before you will play modern games again, is in all respect illogical

B) Secondly, that disease is never going to die. FPS is the disease of the gaming community. I swear over 250+ new FPS games are released per year. Perfect for the younger people who dont want to read/dedicate time to strategy, simulation, rpgs type games. That is the new generation of gaming, thus the new target of game creators.

C) EA and Activision won't hang themselves, they are embedded deep enough in some games/styles that they may take a market hit and maye get smalelr as a company, but many other game companies are dying off, and they are not. Don't expect it anytime soon.

Right. In other words get used to the Call of Duty and Punch the Monkey and Angry Birds type games designed by money grabbing publishers and designed for the illiterate ADHD mainstream masses who can't sit still for more than 5 minutes or play a game that doesn't involve blowing something up every 30 seconds. And heaven forbid a game take longer than 1 hour to beat, we might lose all those customers who can't stay focused for more than a few minutes at a time and who's self esteem might be hurt if they can't figure the game out.

Screw mainstream gaming.

At least there is Atlus and Nintendo DS. Old school fan driven company and not a over sized money grubbing empire.
