It’s been a couple weeks now since my dead PC has been revived. The customization process continues and I still haven’t installed all the software I need. There is one type of software I have had no problems with and those are video games! The original reason for building my own PC was to get back into gaming and with so many games missed in the last 2 years or so and so many games coming out it’s impossible to catch up so I just decided to pick a few to check out.
Enjoying Dragon Age Origins
Dragon Age Origins is a game that I have been having geekgasms while watching trailers and gameplay videos over for over a year and was the first game I installed on my revived PC. I have tossed a few dozen hours over the holidays and so far in January into Dragon Age as I play through as a righteous Dalish Elf Rogue. Been having so much fun and now towards the end of the end of the game and thinking about replaying it as a badass Human Noble Mage who is married to fire lightening and ice.
Other Games I spend less time playing
- Red Alert 3
- Kings Bounty
- FIFA 2010 at a game arcade on weekends with friends on the Xbox 360
A Playstation 3 might be in my future
The Ps3 has lost some weight and the price point has gotten sexier recently and the plan was to get one in January. Still need to clear up some credit card bills and the other half of my school fee and maybe I can grab one for my birthday in March, Final Fantasy XIII and Bioshock 2 might be all I need. So that leads to my original question which video games are you or have you been playing lately?

Currently playing Final Fantasy XIII (mildly disappointed with it, but I’ll see it to the end anyway), Bayonetta and Batman Arkham Asylum are next! I still need to finish up Valkyria Chronicles, as well.
Most of my time has been put into Bleach: Soul Carnival 2 for the PSP lately. Something about chibi Bleach characters in a 2D side-scroller just appeals to me. I should be playing FFXIII, but I can’t muster up enough motivation to sit down and play it.
I miss my 360. I need to play some Halo when I get home.
you should be put to death for having FFXIII and not playing it not to mention being a fan of lamo halo 😛
Im playing by now Windwaker at Gamecube. Havent played before and now that GC games are cheaper its a great deal! 🙂
I am playing dragon age origins right now too… Very nice game..
yup, very great game. Which clan/race are you playing it though as?
I recently finished Kingdom Hearts II for the PS2. A bit late, but it paid off now that I’m ready for 358/2 Days, BBS, and KHIII–whenever it will be released. ^^
I also participated in the MAG beta (PS3) that ended a couple of days ago. It was so much fun–especially the 256 player Domination mode! I’m looking forward to buying it when it comes out later this month. Still waiting to get my hands on FFXIII as well… [smile]
I did drool over a couple MaG trailers recently, maybe I can try to pick that up for my PS3 when I get it.
currently playing Okami on the wii. Very good, simple game with pretty shaded graphics which makes the environments feel more alive. Waiting patiently on No more heros 2: desparate struggle.
I’m almost at the end of the final battle. After 85hrs of playing this game I can’t wait to finish.
Well, my MacBook can’t run anything heavier than a browser these days with the bearings in the left fan near shot to hell. Couple that with a lack of a TV and my wife’s laptop running Ubuntu and my gaming has gone down the tubes. Not that I was doing a whole heck of a lot anyway.
That being said, I’ve kinda fell out of touch with the new and upcoming video games. I was keen on trying Warhammer Online but never got to it. I’m feeling more inclined to play FPS games these days though, where I can blow things up and vent frustration on anyone that happens to get in my way.
I’ve cancelled my plans of buying a laptop anytime soon due to some other pressing issues, so when I get to the Philippines later this year I’ll just get a desktop. That should be cheaper and easier to upgrade anyway.
I just got a ps3 last week. I have been grinding Call of duty modern warfare 2 and intial D extreme stage. [jamaica]
My friend is playing Mortal Combat….Resident Evil and another one……I am not a game freak.
