Do I smell a tiny bit of Rise of Nerevar there?  

[Lady Blodwynn]

A Viking game to go with the big Viking movie (Thor!!) coming next year.

Frustrated at the moment with EA, Bioware and maybe Microsoft too.

Got a gift of 2800 MS points from an aunt, which is nice. I'll use it. However I want to use it to buy the Mass Effect 2 DLC stuff! However, I can only use MS points to buy the Xbox360 content, well... I don't have a million hours on Xbox360 Mass Effect 2, let alone ME2 for Xbox...

An there's no way apparently to trade Xbox DLC so that it works on the PC... Or to use MS points to purchase the content for the PC...  

[Hoxtalicious]

Ah yes, Cerberus network for the PC uses Bioware points. A horrible, horrible system! talk2hand

You could always save those MS points for other games, or arcade games.

Got Mount & Blade + expansion yesterday. A pity that the multiplayer isn't as deep as the singleplayer section, but at least the siege scenarios are brutally fun. Just be sure to pack a shield when you're on top of the siege tower and the ramp drops. Them ******** with theirs bows and javelins know how to use them. crying

In other news, finally finished New Vegas. Meh. I'm also wondering if I should play my PC Black Ops on-line, or will the rape be too much?  

[Hoxtalicious]

Been playing through Black Ops for a bit trying to uncover the Intel items and to decipher the combined code words (X-RAY is a space and not a letter) at the start of each mission: REZNOV IS DEAD. Though when you decipher the numbers transmission you get: OR IS HE?

Gah. They've also shoehorned in a mention to Modern Warfare, as a SAS operative named Johnathan is put on the case. Chances are, this is Captain "John" Price, a.k.a. Captain Scheisse Film Moustache.

Also, while storming the enemy ship at the last level I was supported by a sergeant named "Aziz" wink  

[Caleidah]

About to begin Dead Space 2.

Wish me luck.  

[Vikki Stardust]

Don't s**t yourself now! whee  

[Caleidah]

Thus far:
Trippy as hell.
Incredibly tense opener.
Some good nervous moments.
Not many good scares yet.  

[Sissy Fairy]

Alright my gaming list for the next couple of months:

Bulletstorm
Crysis 2
Dragon Age 2
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Mortal Kombat

And if it is being released in March then Space Marine  

[Hoxtalicious]

Dawn of War Retribution (March)
Space Marine (Summer)

And.. huh, that's it for me. It's mostly attack of the sequels and whatnot.  

[Van Evok]

I am getting a bit of newer games for my new nad improved laptop:
Dragon Age, Witcher, Civ4 and possibly 5, and of course:
DoW II pirate  

[Sissy Fairy]

I forgot that Dawn of War Retribution was out in March. The special edition comes out and I'm going to order it when I get paid, that and Blazblue Continuum Shift, another game I forgot to put on the list.  

[Darkweaver66]

im saving for university at the moment, so the only thing im planning on buying until september (not just gaming, im actually not planning on buying anything haha) is the 3DS.

so my list is kinda short...

March 25th:
- Nintendo 3DS
- Resident Evil Revelations (3DS)
- Metal Gear Solid (3DS)
- The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D (guess what... 3DS!)

and then maybe the odd game as and when during the year...

MAYBE, if i sell a kidney for it, i'll get "Deus Ex: Human Revolution" for 360 too, as i loved Invisible War on the classic Xbox
