Ugh... want Dead Island, Space Marine, and Deus Ex, so bad, but I made a promise to myself that I wouldn't buy any more games until I pay off all my credit card debt (let's forget about loans and whatnot for now...) - which thanks to my car breaking down without warning recently is pretty high. $1,302 left to go...

What STUFFS? I can easily think of multiple combinations of your pedals that would get you $300.

Been playing Dead island on PC. Yeah a bit buggy but they are fixing it fairly quick. That and its just fucking funny even when things mess up.

Waiting anxiously for Guild Wars 2 and Battlefield 3.

I haven't been excited for an MMO since I played WoW back in the day...

For real man! Super excited about GW2, cautious about BF3.

I can't even play Guild Wars anymore, even though I've never beat any of the expansions, I've made so many characters and beaten the core game so many times that I'm just burned out. The game feels a bit dated at this point although I still appreciate its uniqueness among MMOs. Rollin' a necro again in GW2, hoping that it won't result in me pressing 1-3-1-3-1-3-1-3-1-3-5-8-1-3-1-3-1-3 for every battle and occasionally getting one-shotted at random.

Sucks that bots can do pretty much my entire job as minion master, even though I like MM...anyway, GW2 looks much improved.

Battlefield 1942 is what got me addicted to PC gaming. There's lots of good memories associated with that game. BF2 was disappointing...Bad Company 2 is entertaining with friends but it's not a "real" BF game. I'm really hoping BF3 isn't just Call Of Duty With Tanks. Playing the alpha seriously sketched me out though.

AW YEAH
I LOVED PLANETSIDE. Love/hate, really...

There's so much wasted potential to Planetside that it's infuriating. I reinstall it a couple times every year.
I'll definitely play PS2 until I eventually uninstall in a fit of rage.

It disappeared. The only weapon I've had so far that didn't make every fight a battle of attrition where I duck and weave, whittling down zombies forever. Weapons aren't supposed to disappear like that.

HHNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGG


that just made me want to play Morrowind again.
ahhhh.. the good ol' times.

hurrrrrrrrrm. Korg Monotron sucks balls. and like it's sucking balls for the first time evah. not even any good Ball Sucking Skeelz on display.

kinda some cool stuff if you never plan on using it outside the house. but...... meh. the EMX does everything it does wayyyyyyyy bettah.

galoomph. i'm actually gonna play through Resistance 1 & 2 over the next few days i think. tide me over, think i'm gonna have the scratch for the Maschine by Wednesday, than i'll pick up El Tre.

Dead Island doesn't really do much for me. i get way less time to play online than i used to, so i'm usually all about a good in-depth single player experience that'll make me want to play through it two or three times than revisit it some years later.

Speaking of Morrowind, I freaking can't wait until Skyrim. Oblivion and Morrowind both stole scary amounts of hours. Skyrim promises to do the same. Especially with these videos coming out today: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2011/09 ... more-73556

There's always Fallout 3, in the interim.
