(Im)Patiently waiting for Diablo 3. No other game has caught my eye, with the exception of the new shogun total war game. Dunno if I'll get that or not.
But, when diablo 3 is released...

I suspect not even my new wife will see much of me...

Shogun 2 is pretty good Blake, you'd probably like it. Multiplayer is the best the series has ever had, so it has legs beyond the single player.

I finally finished up Twilight Princess after getting sidetracked with Pro Evolution Soccer for a while. 70+ hours, but I like to do all the side quests and explore. I'll probably check out Skyward Sword when it comes out, although I'm a little disappointed that they decided to go back to the cheesy cel-shaded graphics. It's supposed to have MotionPlus support, so the combat should be more like the Swordplay game in Sports Resort.

CRAP.

Who knew that Fallout 3 saved data in My Documents? I sure didn't. When I moved some hard drives around earlier, I copied the important folders. I.E. not that one

See you later, 50+ hour save file

Seriously - why would it save in another folder? How can that possibly make sense? Keep it all contained!

I definitely will going forward. I think this is the only game that this happened to. I'm sure I'll find another one that is missing in a few weeks

Whenever I'm doing a wipe if I don't do a full backup, I always make sure to dump my users folder. 90% of the single player games I have played since Oblivion save to mydocs. I guess they do it so people don't have to go trolling through the program files when they switch boxes. Does anyone here play any steam games? Team Fortress 2 and Zombie Panic especially.

Yup I always transfer my whole personal folder jsut for the wierd stuff that may be hidden there.


For Steam my crack addiction is Defense Grid, great tower game. On the oter hand, I haven't played much of anything since I started in LOTRO (Lord of the Rings Online).

Anything I can get on Steam I do. It's a spectacular platform. Mass Effect 1/2. Fallout, Eufloria, Rift, EvE, Orange Box games,etc.

I've just ordered a new gaming rig so all I have to do is figure out how to xfer saved games and I'm golden.

No more discs for me.

I think I'm going to go the PC route with Portal 2, as long as my rig can handle it...though the PS3 option is very tempting

Last night I sat down and finished off Assassin's Creed 2. The story really developed in the last 2 hours of the game. Made me excited for brotherhood (which is sitting on my desk), but it is going to have to wait for me to beat Portal 2.

Portal 2 for PS3 comes with a code for PC. Just FYI - id imagine the 360 is the same way

Playing Lego Star Wars III, Horrible controls.....they don't even response half the time. Not impressed so far but I do like the comedic aspect of the game.

It didn't look that great, so I bought it on the DS rather than the big system for my kid. He loves the first two (both on PS2, GC, and DS), but this one he said really sucks.
