Seeing as we've had a 'What are you reading' thread, i thought I'd stick in one for you to say what computer game (or other games) your currently playing. For me it's: Knights of the Old Republic, which I picked up last week, though it was a pain getting it to work on Vista. About 1/4 of the way through I think, downloaded a mod for it that gives coloured lightsabres  Guns & Ghouls - Running a homebrew RPG game (for those that don't know what an RPG is think of Dungeons and Dragons) Set in the Wild West, where indian curses and spirits are real. I was going to buy an official rule system, but the wildwest ones were all too expensive, so wrote my own. My bi-monthly poker nights have fallen through, as the 1 person who had transport to get us all together, no longer does  |

I agree.... I'm currently trying to beat the hardest game I've ever played.... Zombies Ate My Neighbours!
A beautiful SNES classic stuffed full of monsters and b-movie references.

Need to finish off the side missions in L.A.NOIRE while impatiently waiting for Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and (even more impatiently) Mass Effect 3.
Tried the new Bloodrayne: Betrayal but not thrilled with it.

Lego Star Wars II.........I can explain everything.
I haven't bought a game since 2002 and I only really play games when I'm with mates. My copies of the theatrical cuts of Star Wars included demo's for this game and you know what, the demo was a lot of fun.
So when this summer I noticed it was for sale when I was looking for DVDs I couldn't control myself. I've never looked back since. Lego Star Wars is AWESOME. So there.

Nothing wrong with Lego, star wars, and computer games - so one that's all three sounds positively excellent.
Just about finished Knights of the Old Republic, and will be going onto The Sith Lords sequal for it this weekend.

Let's see... I recently finished Deus Ex: Human Revolution, which was absolutely amazing. It lived up to the original for me, which is difficult since the first Deus Ex is one of my favorite games ever.
Borderlands has been my current addiction. Not thought-provoking, just hilarious action.
I'm also running a campaign of Hunter: the Reckoning set in New Orleans, Louisiana, which is turning out fun. Basically, the characters are people who've been chosen at random by a higher force called the Heralds to be aware of and fight the supernatural, with only minor abilities of their own. Very dark, very gritty, and characters' sanity drops like a brick. Great fun.
A game of Werewolf: the Apocalypse is also coming up, but that one's still in the planning stages.

The Cowboy RPG I'm running is going well, The party has done two adventures so far. The party are playing US Marshalls - I gave them a choice to be just wandering cowboys, marshalls, or outlaws. they picked Marshalls as that gave them a wage 1st was dealing with a corrupt Captain at a fort, who had discovered a gold mine he was keeping secret from the US army, so he could keep all the gold for himself (well himself and his 'helpers'). They didn't get enough evidence to arrest him, but they did blow up his mine and smelting operation. 2nd they were sent to deal with a train robbery, and recover some stolen property. Turned out the town they were sent to was behind the robbery, and they'd stolen a Gattlin gun so they could kill a 'beast' that was terrorising them at night. The 'beast' was a zombie bear that had been raised by a shaman, last survivor of a tribe of indians that the town's founders had wiped out in the nearby hills when they built the town. They stopped the bear, recoverd the gun, and killed the shaman - though didn't discover why all this was happening. They've just started a 3rd adventuer where they have to hunt down some bank robbers. It's a small adventure with a nice shoot out at the end. |

For a while now, I've been considering doing a tabletop one-shot based off of The Suffering, since that game was awesome.

I'm playing The Sith Lords now (sequal to Knights of the Old Republic computer game). The Cowboy group I'm running, didn't do the shoot out with the bank robbers, instead one of the sneaked up and planted dynamite next to the cabin the robbers were hold up in, and blew them up - along with the $30,000 they'd stolen from 4 banks. It rained burning money all around them |
