Civ 5 and Saint's Row 3. The former I have had for a while, but just got back in to playing, and the latter I recently got cause it was on sale on Steam. Both are quite fun.

Funnily enough I tried Civ 5 for a while, then remembered how much better Civ 4 is and have been immersed in it.
Have the civ colony game as well. I might give it a go some time, I had the freeware version aware ago and it was pretty cool, even if it wasn't really replayable.
Ever thought 40k would be a lot better with bears?

Dino Crisis - PS1 title makes up for the lack of a decent Jurassic Park game.
Continuing to make progress with Skyrim, then it's back to actually finish Morrowind!
I really love that game near the end. Much better ending then Skyrim IMO.
Every Dakkanaught gets a 4+ Pinch of Salt save.
When you suffer a Falling Sky hit, roll a D6 - on a 4+ the hit is ignored as per the Pinch of Salt save. On a 1-3 panic insues - you automatically fail common sense tests for the next 2 weeks and get +7 to your negativity stat. -Praxiss

Is Civ 5 worth it? I heard 4 is better and I see a lot of not so Civ-like stuff in 5.

Both are mods (well done mods), and both run on my old Laptop with its damaged onboard graphic card.

Just finished Metro 2033. Freaking awesome game, it's like the Mass Effect of the post apocalyptic genre, except it actually has a decent ending. I'll be reading the book as well.
May the the blessings of His Grace the Emperor tumble down upon you like a golden fog. (Only a VERY select few will get this reference. And it's not from 40k. )

Been playing Lords of the Realm 2 while waiting for my copy of Warhammer 40k: Chaos Gate to show up. Also waiting for Pirates, Knights, and Vikings 2 to release the next patch.

I'm not sure wether that is a sword... it's more like a letteropener, really.
It's not quite maintaining the same core elements of the previous instalments (such as the ability to have full control over your squad member's movements) but it is still entertaining...

Played one game of ME3 this week multiplayer, came in on round 4.. odd, but bagged a Krogan Sentinel with a Premium Spectre, so used him and loved it.
Then did a mission in my main single player game, but have left her with the Geth world missions.
Also had a short blast on Sims 3, as Aura and I are trying to finish the achievements, only two left now, both being a little grindy, but should be done by the end of the weekend.
Apart from that, not playing much.
Will have to share a pic of my wargaming construction efforts at some point as thats where 70-80% of my free time is going at the mo.

Bandits just seem to be able to insta-kill me or my pawns. Either I'm still too low a level or my pawn combination sucks. Either way I like a bit of challenge

I've dug deep into my collection of Gamecube games and pulled out the video game adaption of Peter Jackson's King Kong. It's pretty fun and very atmospheric.
