I'm really really really really really looking forward to Civ 5.

I freakin love Mafia 2 The gameplay/music/missions are all awesome. I don't want to finish it! Had a similar feeling while playing God of War 3.

Mafia 2 is an awesome game.

Re-running thru the always amazing Half Life 2. felt this extreme urge to Gordan Freeman up a storm. that and the usual WoW, and on occasion a cheeky bout on Tekken 6

Been revisiting Civilisation IV. Renewed interest with Civ V looming. One of my all time favourite franchises.

Also Bad Company 2.

My 5 year old has been playing Gratuitous Space Battles. Purchased on Steam for $4.99. I know I shouldn't be encouraging computer games but its hilarious watching him build the spaceships then try them out in battle.

Playing Angry Birds on the iphone, My other consoles are fine however my TV decided it wanted to meet the fish tank, they had a party in the middle of the living room so until the EQC finally get around to processing the more important claims, looks like im stuck with the iphone and an underpowered cheap laptop.

I've been too broke for new games lately! Have been thinking about starting Wow though.... hmmm we shall see. Mainly playing MW2 and a few random golden oldies.

What's been gaming related on my mind... where did Beastman ever get to? He was like the Bill Murray of your blog!

Still playing through Mafia II as I havnt devoted a lot of time to it. I really like it. I have no issues with the linear nature of the game at all, (I only really play through the story in the GTA games for the most part so it wasnt jarring for me here) great well told story nice graphics, and excellent audio. I will be picking up the DLC over the week or two.

DLC is really sucking in my time atm. I just bought Witch Hunt for Dragon Age, as its the final DLC I will be giving it a whirl and will complete my playthrough. The new DLC for Mass Effect 2 is also bought, downloaded and ready to roll as well. I havent played ME2 since I completed the main campaign for the 2nd time after the initial release. I now have 4 major DLCs and a bunch of minor ones for 1 more playthrough (3 is enough, not the 28 that 2 people have completed according to Bioware. link -> http://au.pc.ign.com/articles/111/1118657p1.html ) I'm actually pretty excited to try another run with a different class.

I will also be checking out Amnesia: The Dark Descent properly over the weekend. This is one seriously creepy game. Gave the demo a spin a few days ago and it really entertained and scared me. FPS horror game. No shooting just a simple point and click affair, but its quite pretty and REALLY affective. Its pretty cheap too $15USD on steam. I think everyone should at least check out the demo ( http://www.amnesiagame.com/#demo ).

I'm actually working my way through The Orange Box on PS3. I used to play FPSs on PC for years and I just couldn't be bothered trying to play a FPS with a control pad (since the Megadrive anyway). It just didn't seem like it was ever going to be as accurate as I could be with a KB and mouse due to the thousands upon thousands of hours of hours I had put in honing in on, and popping, heads at a great distances. I had all but written off FPSs on consoles based on this till I realised there was a whole genre I was missing out on because I was being lazy. I also can't be bothered with PC gaming as i used to put as much a PS3 cost or more into my machine every 9-12 months. I came across the Orange Box for $30 on Tuesday and figured, I may as well learn FPSs with a control pad using the HL2 engine. The next gen version of the engine I've spent more time playing than any other engine, and probably ever will.

Yes it is thursday, bring on friday! Played a bit of portal while waiting for portal 2 to come out. Have you seen the new vids? Looks amazing! Also a bit of just cause 2 cause there is just a million things to do in that game =P

Have'nt yet played Mafia 2, we will probably look into buying it soon to have a play. We have revived Borderlands as of late which is a really fun FPS RPG. And definatley getting Reach !!! Woohoo.. Can't wait
