As the sun sets on my time at Kotaku, and I drive down the dusty road towards a horizon of infinite possibility, I figured I’d probably play some Far Cry 2 on the way.
How about you, what are you playing this weekend?
[Thanks once again to Ben Abraham for a second perfect screenshot.]
Since I’m staying at my folks place for the weekend, I’m relaxing with a bit of Spore. The mods make the game a lot better.
I’m playing the game “Work 9 till 5 then go home and get hammered on mead”. Its a good game, kinda shit graphics though and after grinding for 8 hours you dont get much gold in the end…
As a tribute (and the screenshots got me jonesing) I’ll probably be making maps in Far Cry 2 and finishing RDR.
Last night – i found a sign from god… after Mr. Goose’s final posts i wandered into an EB games and there i saw it… Far Cry 2 Collectors Edition on Xbox 360… $26 complete….
So i’ll be playing that in homage to you, Mr. Wildgoose
Awesome. It is Saturday and the goose lives on. Perhaps only in spirit.
Here is an idea. We can all be like those halo 2 fans who kept playing after the cut off date. If we don’t close our browser windows and keep posting comment, David will have to stay on at kotaku. Who’s with me?
* no one stands up*
No gaming again this week. Exams are ever closer. Also baby sitting two kids ( does it count if one of they is you own?). Fathers day tomorrow. That should be nice.
Haha, how many final posts are you going to make?
On topic, I’ve been playing Bad Company 2 and Starcraft 2. And I’ve been winning for a change, which surprises me!
“I figured I’d probably play some Far Cry 2” good to see you’re leaving with a joke.
Mass Effect 2 and a bit of Chrono Trigger.
It’s AFL finals, though, so gaming may be minimal.
Get my arse kicked in Starcraft 2, and I may pop Far Cry 2 in for a bit of roadblock checkpoint clearing in honour of our departed editor.
What are you doing here? GO HOME!!
As I sit at my desk, munching on my breakfast cocktail (I just ran out of weet bix, so I had all the broken ones, mixed with all the left over bits of other cereal).. I am looking at the weather reports.
I am racing my mountain bike tomorrow down at Mogo on the South Coast of NSW. The outlook isn’t looking too good, a lot of rain today which will make for a mud bath tomorrow.
I know what I would rather be doing… playing games!! Perfect weekend for it.
Best of luck in the future David. This weekend I’m going to play Resistance: Fall of Man. I finally managed to track down a brand new copy of the original non-platinum version which I wanted for $30.
Starcraft II.
Currently getting my arse handed to me in single player… Got some practice to get in before I choose to go online and humiliate myself.
Anyone got Torchlight, is it any good? I need something to keep me entertained until Diablo 3.
As a massive Diablo fan, I’d recommend Torchlight. Its probably the closest a game has got to capturing the Diablo feel, though a co-op feature would have been nice. Nevertheless it (and sequel out soon?) will give the diablo ‘fix’ needed to survive the wait to D3.
I am a huge fan of the diablo series so I picked up torchlight when it first came out and sunk a good 40-50 hours into it in no time and there plenty of custom mods and classes out there to keep you coming back for ages… might fire it up right now 😀
Yeah I got Torchlight ages ago off Steam. I thought it was fun and quite addicting. When I can’t decide what to play, I bust it out again and give it a spin (so to speak). It should keep you entertained for quite some time.
I would just like to point out, if you kept driving towards the sun, and did it at a rather high speed, it would never set.
Your last day would never end, you can stay forever!
This weekend It’s EQII between all the fathers day shenanigans, double xp is going to be hard to pry myself away from.
How is modnation racers? I was thinking of getting it to teach my class about track design, is the track editor as good as it looks?
for me it’s scott pilgrim, puzzle quest 2 and worms reloaded battles with the wife! lovin the hot hd wormy goodness!!
Bye David!, Thank’s so much for all the articles!
Playing: no vidya this weekend due to a performance on monday!
Dragon Quest IX is pretty much consuming all my free time…with a bit of metroid prime in the side
Metroid: Other M stands at the top of my to-play list, and I might just download the Dead Rising prequel dealie from Xbox Live.
Played and finshed Episode 1 of Sam and Max on PS3 – got the whole series free thanks to PS+
I will start Episode 2, and also try to finish Brutal Legend this weekend
Okami for today and at least some of my next 2 weeks holidays.
Maybe I should get Far Cry 2? The last time I looked at buying it I was talked out of it. *runs*
Try and finish Mafia 2 and Wolfenstein. Then the vanquish demo and Red Dead on ps3 and Starcraft 2 SP
Was thinking about some FarCry 2, but I might wait till after HSC to do another play of that.
Started playing GTA4 again cause I needed to finish it, dont know why I stopped having alot of fun.
And World in Conflict only has another 4 missions to go I think.
was thinking about buying company of heroes cos of the steam sale but its 7 gig and my download speed is slow. so minecraft, halo 3 and i downloaded but havent played half life 2 , ep1 and ep2 so those as well. maybe TF2 and CSS but im bad at CSS. new to the pc gaming so i might download so games but who knows.
Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light. Finally a game with Lara that does not make me feel sad.
Oh, and Angry Birds. Damn that game!
Age of Zombies! It’s so addictive, its like Smash TV on my PSP!
Also, got about 1/3 of Mafia II left to finish.
StarCraft 2. Again. I don’t think I need to keep posting this. Everyone just assume I am playing StarCraft 2 constantly and relentlessly. Oh and by the way, no I’m not addicted or anything. I’ve seen people with over 1000 league games and I haven’t even played over 100 yet. Not to mention I haven’t even spent time with the campaign or custom maps.
Just happens to be the only game I play right now.
I’m playing through Assassin’s Creed 2, yesterday I got completely addicted to the assassination side quests. It’s so much better than the 1st one and I hope this trend is continued through to brotherhood and perhaps beyond.
will be playing Reach again again and again! Forge World / Custom Games get some practice in for the retail release of the 14th 😉
Batman arkham asylum. Picked it up as a video ezy ex rental for 15 bucks (the only other place i could find it in the backwards town was 120 dollars at harvey norman. Since i got back from canada i just cant bring myself to spend more than 60 dollars on a game.
Where are you headed next david?
I was cleaning out my dads study not long ago and found some of my early early pc powerplays. One of them had a review of quake in it i think. Ahhh the memories.
