I play Call of Duty MW2 and Black ops, WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2010+11, Oblivion, NHL 11, , LOTR Conquest, Halo Reach, Dead Island(when it comes out)

I like achievements and goals. I'm playing MW2 with the goal of collecting as many of the online titles as I can (I have 100% of the Trophies for World at War, MW2, and Black Ops already.) I recently had a competition with a friend of my wife's (and now my good friend too! Its awesome when something like that works out well!) to see how many trophies we could collect, with bonus points awarded for platinums (because you sacrifice a lot of small-trophy getting time getting the big ones). It was fun, took about two months, and I ended up with about ten new platinums for my PSN ID. I played World of Warcraft about two years ago, for the better part of nine months, and all I did was hunt those Achievements! As for games to hold me over, I really don't know. Been looking at Two Worlds II, but have gotten mixed reviews. Picked up Hunted recently, played a bit of co-op, thought it was great fun, and am excited to start it with my wife.

Edit: P.S., I too, love digging. Dwarf Fortress was a bit tough for me to get into, as I didn't have a lot of time to spend learning it. I haven't played minecraft yet. But am I wrong in stating Dig Dug was one of the most fun arcade games ever?

Winemerchant, Yeah Dwarf Fortress is a beast of a simulator and not at all intuitive but that is why i love it, complexity is fun. you sir are correct on the dig dug comment. I've been curious on Two Worlds 2 as well, like you said the reviews have been iffy.

Two worlds 2 is good big improvement over the original but i wouldnt say its up to date with other games but worth it

Stop gap games for me are
red dead redemption multyplayer cant get enough of it
Final fantasy 8 my disc 3 snapped when i was small so iv been waiting ten years to complete it and i am absolutly loving it thanks psn
Final fantasy 7 not the greatest but thought id get it because of ff8 i got
Fear 3 just finished big let down not one scare just another shooter
Pokemon red blue yellow silver gold and crystal on my gameboy colour you can keep your pokemon white the series has gone too far and boring to hell
Infamous 1&2 replays when i am ultimatly bored out my skull
Possibly some MAG gets pretty boring
Oh yea theres also friday sat & sun nights get absolutly para nd wake up with a blak eye or in a ditch these days are fun
And demon souls lvl 712 and die in 1 hit not fun but fun its weird
Think thats bout it mainly ff8 drawing ultima taking ages u recieved 9 ultima come back a hour later u recieved 2 I NEED SIX HUNDRED GOD DAMMIT
