What Are You Playing This Weekend?

9:00AM November 14, 2009 | David Wildgoose

I belatedly took my own advice and ordered the brutally hard Demon’s Souls from Play Asia.

I ordered it on Tuesday and it showed up Friday afternoon. Not a bad turn around. I’m now looking forward to having my arse kicked all weekend long.

What will be kicking your arse this weekend?

At the moment I’m bouncing between Demon’s Souls, Brutal Legend and still trying to crack wave 20 of Dawn of War II’s The Last Stand. That Chaos Lord is a tough bugger.

MAG beta for me. Boy do I suck. I’ve managed to ‘nade myself at least 10 times. I might try and level up tomorrow or play through Uncharted 2 again.

Work will be kicking my arse this weekend.

If I get the chance, MW2 multiplayer will be the bulk of gaming this weekend…..and the next few weeks/ months

After the disappointment of the PC version of MW2, I’ll be playing Borderlands instead. I probably should be studying for my astrophysics exam, but meh, it’s not until Thursday.

Hopefully I’ll finish the game with enough time to spare to get some study done.

Just pretty much 100%’d Brutal Legend (except for a few bits of concept art), and I’ve since discovered that Firefight with 3 mates in Halo ODST is hella fun. I’ll probably hit up more of that, as I find myself unemployed and unable to purchase anything new for the moment unfortunately.

Borderlands for me. Traded Modern Warfare 2 in for it, totally worth it.

Borderlands is my kind of game, MW2 was just an Overhyped Sham of a Game, that campaign was one of the worst i’ve played…

Anyway, Im sinking my time into Borderlands before Assassins Creed 2 drops

@Dave

I’ll also be playing Demon’s Souls most of the weekend, but I think I’ll throw in some Bayonetta as well.

Me too! Ha! Just bought it this week :)

Dragon Age has devoured my weekend at the moment. I love the writers for this game; stellar job thus far. Everything to do with Dog or Sten in particular is solid gold. Brother Genitivi of all characters has so far got the Best Quote prize in his keeping, but there’s a long way to go.

After reading a preview in an old issue of Hyper I’ve reinstalled Medieval II Total War.

The slow pace of overworld turns is offset by the joy of pillaging France repeatedly.

Dragon Age,

Something’s going on with my downloaded content.
It’s saying it can’t find it so I’ve got to start a new game.

Part of it may be that I’ve reached my ISP cap for the month so it can’t connect to the server… but it should still be on my Xboxs’ hard drive.

Yayayaya, gogogogo Demon’s Souls! One of the sleeper hits of 2009 getting some front page coverage on Kotaku, win!

My personal GOTY, it is.

David, watch out for the red eyed guy at the top of the stairs in 1-1, before the first bit of fog.

And if you’re in need of help at any point, check out the 430-odd page long thread at the GAF forums.
