    I was just wondering what games on the PC or console be it Xbox 360 or the PS3 would you guys and gals be playing.

    Myself would be having a bash at fifa 2008 soccer on the PC as my wife misplaced my far cry 1 and COD 2:)

    Now let the games begin:)

    I don't take my PC back to my parents house (will likely go insane). However, I'll be back to Fallout 3 when I go back home :)

    Probably play some COD 4/5, maybe some Fallout 3 (all 360).

    AND!

    Play some WoW, because me and my friend did 'Recruit a Friend', even though we have high level accounts.

    On Recruit a Friend you get 3x XP and you level uber fast, which means I dont waste as much as my life on it.

    *Awaits WoW lolz* :biggrin

    Other than that, go drinking and spend Christmas with my family and girlfriend.

    Merry Christmas everyone!

    EDIT: Not forgetting ofcourse, some 70-290.

    Have a good one! :alc

    You won't regret it Ken, it's a great game. Very similar to Titan Quest.


    I'll be trying to get some quality Sacred 2 and Guild Wars time happening.

    I'm considering a MMORPG now I have a decent internet connection.

    Being a fangirl of the Elder Scrolls series of games, NWN and Dungeon Siege, I'll probably end up with World of Warcraft - but with the studying et al I really don't know how much of my sleep I could sacrifice to a new gaming addiction - any recommendations?

    As I've said before, I don't really game that often. I'll probably still have Championship Manager running in the background whilst I study or read (you know you've done one game for too long when Wayne Rooney retires).

    I've also started replaying Oblivion, with the intention of actually attempting the main quest. I had considering redoing Morrowind, and trying to write the story of the main quest - but I just don't have time :(

    Game-wise, I am hoping for the new Raving Rabbids game tomorrow - so we'll see :biggrin

    The only games i'll be playing this festive season are "fetch!", "walkies!" and "don't crap in my shoes" as we got our new dog yesterday!

    If I get 5 minutes to myself I might have a little go on Fifa '09 on my DS and Mother 3 on my GBA to relax.

    I heard far cry 2 is a resource hogger as well as a short game? Well just checking:) on the other hand I have also heard lots of raving about fallout 3.
