If you are like me, I tend to only play 2 to 3 video games at a time.  I only get a few hours a night to "game it up" so I tend to stick with a game until I beat it or get tired of it and don't play much else.

Rainbow Six Vegas 2. Split screen with friends is pretty entertaining. Ready for a new game, tho.

I play a game or two of NCAA Football for my online dynasties.  Then either Fable 2 or Far Cry 2

It's a good thing I have no life.

NCAA.  I think I might go back through MGS4, though.  Decisions, decisions.

RIGHT NOW:

PC: Warhammer Online.  I'm rollin w/ a Black Orc on the Sylvania server.  Overall I like it more than WoW, it is more PvP oriented and not so carebearish like WoW is and not a mindless grindfest either.  

PS3: LittleBigPlanet, although the online play is currently broken.  Single player is fun, a very easy game to get in to.  

Nintendo DS: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, "Justice for All...".  Yeah, I like it.  If you don't know, you probably shouldn't ask.

The Wii is collecting dust, as is the PSP until Patapon 2 comes out.

    I'm with Coco.
360- CoD5 beta (I'm weening off this). CoD4. Halo 3. Portal: Still Alive. Braid.   Fallout 3 and Gears 2 will be the next ones I go to.

PC- Call me old school, but I still can't get enough of Civ IV. I'd still be playing Civ II if they ended the series.

CivIV - did you get the expansion packs? I love CivIV but haven't gotten the 2 expansion packs yet...I know i'd get started w/ a game and just play it all weekend. I love Civ - been playing since the first one.  Civ II I like the least but still like it quite a bit, especially the WW2 scenario.

I keep asking for people to join me in some civ IV but I never get any takers...recently I have been playing Civ IV way too much...it was out of hand.  I had to step away for a bit.  I am sure I'd jump right back in the saddle though if someone wanted to play.

True, however no one makes updated rosters for NHL 93 roms just NHL 94roms.

However, the one thing I loved about NHL 93 was the fact you can start a fight during play stoppages, after goals, end of a period, and the end of the game.

Nothing is more gratifying than scoring a goal and then beating the living shiat of your opponent right after scoring the goal.

It is pretty slow, but you usually can bang through the first 100-200 turns in a few hours and before a human player the first person goes to war.  Once that happens, turns are every 3-4 minutes which seems forever while you stare and wait.  

There are options though, you can use something called 'pitboss'...It allows you to host a game somewhere and then persons can log into it and take their turn whenever they want.  They even have websites that will email you when everyone has taken their turn.  This is really for much larger games though (4+) and makes the game take forever since you actually have to load civ 4, run your turn and turn it off every day.  :banghead:

I have played the game with 4+ persons and 4 cpu a number of times and invertiblely someone quits or sabbatoges the game since they got pinched early.  LOL  In a regular lan setting it sucks if you take someone out because most of the time that leaves them with nothing to do for 6-10 hours until you complete the game.

You can also set timelimits on each turn but that really sucks most of the time and leads to big time mistakes, especially with noobs.  :lol:

We also turn off tech trading for a little twist.

I'd consider Warhammer. Not sure how well it'd run though. I only meet the minimum requirements.
I'm telling you, this is not ANYTHING like the team from the beginning of conference play. You will see no more blowouts like what happened in OOC.  If we lose, it will not because these kids gave up, and it will be at the buzzer. -Rodless, before 97-70

Saw that at a LAN party this weekend, xbox 360, looked bad ass.  Kinda crazy on the guns though...chopping off all their limbs is harder than you think and they lay there pretending to be dead too until you walk by them. 

Make sure you play it at night, with the lights off.  :ohno: :ohno: :ohno:
