Once again I spent a great amount of time playing Dawn of Discovery.  I finished the campaign, which was quite enjoyable, and now I have moved on to the scenarios.  These are challenging, and take some time to complete, but it’s well worth the time spent.

I had to squeeze in some time with East India Company.  This is a complex and challenging game, but very rewarding once you get the hang of it.  The visuals are simply beautiful, and puts you right into the ship as if you are a real captain yourself.

So that was most of my gaming weekend.  What did you play?

I had 9v9 and 6v6 matches with my TF2 team.  Otherwise played a couple hours on TF2 pubs, reloaded Fallout3 and got the DLCs which I hadn't had before, and I'm mostly playing through that now.  I've also been playing CIV with FFH2 recently but didn't play any this weekend.

X3: Terran Conflict. Im probably modding it more than I'm playing it but it's the thought that counts.

Simply the prettiest starship flying game around and moddable (and already modded) beyond recognition. Practically nothing is off-limits for modders. There are new weapons, ships, stations... whole new universes.

And it's the only game where you have a freedom comparable to GalCiv. No other game has the same vertical depth. Trucking around in a trader, mining asteroids, flying a tiny scout, or commandeering a fleet of battleships, carriers, and missile frigates. Anything goes.

 

X3 is tons of fun, unfortunately my joystick recently kicked the bucket and I just don't find it the same without it, so until I replace that X3:TC on hold.

Played my first GalCiv2 game. And Quake Wars to fill time between chores. Played QuakeLive a little, but won't be going back. They've resissued Q3 Arena as a free game but it takes me back too far. Must.Move.Forward.

remember to pick up the high res mod: http://drog.terra-arcanum.com/highres.html

 

Ooooo!  I don't think those were around the last time I played.  I may have to load up some Arcanum for next weekend.  Thanks for the links!

I buried myself in my recently purchased Playstation 2 - I highly recommend picking up a Slim Line now for a bargain price.

 

The PS2 is, in my opinion, the pinnacle of console gaming.  Do yourself a favor and pick up Gran Turismo 4, Ratchet & Clank, and Dynasty Warriors 5.

I tried to play Metroid Prime 3 on my sisters Wii, but i just can't get the hang of those the controls. So i ended up continuing my adventures in Oblivion. My Khajiit Spellsword kicks ass and looks good doing it

Heh.  Played a little Sword of the Stars and a lot of Quest of Yipe! III.

Yeah I happened to like it but the issue was Moo 3 just had a broken diplomacy system and the mod community was unable to fix it. Ah well still fun.
