I’ll be checking out two drastically different shooters this weekend.
I’ve got Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising in the 360. I’ll be checking out the second of two missions included in the preview disc.
I’ve also got The Conduit in the Wii. It’s been out a few weeks now, but I haven’t had the chance to play it until now.
I think I’ll go with Flashpoint first, then switch my brain off for the Conduit.
What are you playing this weekend?

Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 1:33 PMi’m tossing up about conduit, as a Wii/DS owner, I really should support it.
i’m still in to Knights in the nightmare and next up Rune Factory 2. The DS RPG library is massive.

Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 1:36 PM-L4D if my mates are up for a game
-Order of War demo (grabbed off Steam last night)
-Maybe Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts, if I can make the damn thing work (it didn’t install a singleplayer executable!? I’ll try reinstalling again…)

Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 1:37 PMOh, and Space Invaders: Infinity Gene on my iPhone. First app I’ve paid for on the thing, and the game is bloody good fun if I do say so myself.

Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 8:00 PMSo I’m TRYING to play COH: Opposing Fronts. It won’t let me play AT ALL unless I download over a gb worth of patches. WHAT THE HELL? And then I tried to play Tales of Valor bought off Steam… my account is banned BEFORE IT’S EVEN CREATED.
This, combined with the joke of a DoW2 launch, officially makes Relic the worst game producer of all time. That’s THREE games I’ve bought from them that cannot physically be played. THREE.

Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 8:24 PMCD cracks from pirate torrents fixed my problems with both games, meaning I can now play both CoH games I paid for. Just like when my legit Dawn of War 2 didn’t work! Hooray for piracy…

Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 1:38 PMDamn, I was hoping the second shooter game would be Water Warfare…the superior Wii online shooter, in my dishonest opinion… =D

Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 1:38 PMHalf-Life 2! Was talking about it with a mate the other day it made me want to play it again! Such a brilliant game.

Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 3:38 PMGrabbed a copy of escape from Monkey Island. Heard it was crap, but I have to at least try to finish it before delving into Tales… OCD is a wonderful thing. Oh, and I also want to finish Psychonauts before Brutal Legend comes out.

Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 3:43 PMThe Batman: Arkham Asylum demo. A lot, apparently…
Andrew
Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 4:55 PMProbably some more Anno 1404/Dawn of Discovery.

Saturday, August 8, 2009 at 5:12 PMWonder Boy 5 in Monster World (via Virtual Console). MegaDrive awesomeness. It will also really stress the graphics capabilities of the Wii.
