I'm playing three games right now.

Skyrim
Bioshock
Bioshock 2

Although admittedly Skyrim has taken a back seat as I'm playing B and B2.

I had the house to myself today and it was rather very cold and wet outside, so I did some quick playthroughs of all the games I have on this PC :D

(Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas)

Good times indeed. And probing hippies in DAH 2 never got old either...

"I here by command you to....SHAKE. THAT. ASS."

I've also started playing Skyrim again. Decided to play it for what it is instead of what I wished it was, and have been enjoying it much more as a result.

Meh i destroyed that game as a kid. get the devastator out the window and your good to go, if all goes wrong you have allways got your trusty boot.
as for what i am currently playing- system shock 1, 10x harder than duke.

I love the Devastator in DN:TM, however, it's DNF counterpart not so much. Oh it's a fair weapon against bosses (you almost need it) but don't you dare use it against the Octobrains in DNF, it's almost useless against them.

Duke nukem forever is not even duke nukem. its call of halo: playboy mansion. Discraceful game.
But that is what I have come to expect from most modern developers & publishers.

Crusader Kings 2, Dark Souls and I Am Alive.

Crusader Kings two is [censored] amazing.

Dark Souls is a great game but the first game to make me rage quit since the 90s.

I Am Alive is alright but it looks like garbage, being an arcade game is no excuse for sloppiness.

But it has Duke Nukem in the name and stars Duke Nukem. And I don't remember Duke Nukem Forever saying Call of Halo: Playboy Mansion, though that would be cool (Cortana :drool:). Jokes aside though, I liked that game. Especially the multiplayer.

Just started playing Champions Online. Free, though lacking access to all classes/freeform class creation. Worth it just for the character creation process. I've basically been sitting here coming up with backstory after backstory and creating a character to match. My favourite so far is Kommissar Kodiak, a hulking bear in red power armor with the hammer and sickle on the shoulderpads.

How far are you in KnS ? Im curious to see how far you will make it without the guide.

I was playing Deardrops (awesome), but my laptop broke. Played some FNV for a bit, boy I sure did miss the constantly spawning bullet sponges in OWB. Whenever I get around to finishing OWB its off to the divide. One hit kill deathclaws, oh joy. Im dreading doing that with my melee/unarmed guy.

Alan Wake.

I'm planning on playing that... is it any good?

It is, yeah. If you find new/different games interesting, definitely give it a try. The only downsides (which weren't really downsides for me -- they made sense within the context of the game; yes, all of the settings are log cabins, woods and dilapidated buildings [you're playing in a rural, isolated area, what did you expect?]; and yes, there are only 7 or 8 enemies but, again, they make sense within the context of the game) are the repetitive enemies and environments.

Finishing off ME3 tonight (hopefully...) then trying to decide whether to start a new playthrough from the very beginning or maybe a DAO playthrough. Or maybe go back to KoA....

I've restarted Fallout 3 - I crashed right after sitting the GOAT exam and had to do it again. Then when I went to save I found a save point right before I left the Vault, which would have saved me doing the whole years intro again :P

I'm slowly playing through http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyZJo7RpCwo, a game I had on my Steam list for ages from an early Humble Indie Bundle but that I never played. It's one of the biggest surprise hits I've played lately, I was expecting some simple girly mermaid game but it's so much better than that.

I also started a new playthrough of Psychonauts in which I'm going to be very completionistic (that's a word right?). No figments, cobwebs or emotional baggage left behind!

And I just beat Deus Ex: Invisible War for the first and definitely final time.

Haha same here, I replayed DX1 and DX2 in a row before starting HR to get into the feeling and DX2 was such a drag.

Aww, come on, IW wasn't that bad. The biggest mistake that game made was its depressingly short length, but I think everything else was rather well done. If it had just been about thirty hours longer, I'd line it up right next to the first game.

To expand on that a bit more, I think Ion Storm just got really caught up in the hype for the consoles and let it control how they developed the game, which is most likely responsible for most if not all of its shortcomings. What's there, though, is still pretty good to me. And we got Human Revolution as an apology (albeit from a different developer).
