Well, the Planetary Annihilation Alpha is ramping up nicely. Every new development adding delicious tactical wrinkles and/or nailing down the bugs. I just need more time to play!

I still can't stop playing Dark Souls.

I'm currently in NG+ and last night I kicked the shit out of the Four Kings. Tonight, Priscilla is going to give up that fucking tail of hers!

If you need luck to get through Monkey Island, you're doing it wrong. :P

Which one are you doing? If a remake, are you doing it in classic mode or the new mode?

I lost all my old ScummVM files when my computer wanked out, so Special Edition, classic mode but with new audio. Currently on MI2 and remembering why it's my favourite! I've never completed Curse so that should be interesting, and I don't have a good copy of MI4. Debating on whether to include Tales.

Cubeworld looks good, it's just too bad it uses directX, not openGL. :/

It's got great potential. Right now it's pretty much a grind fest but I just got a pet alpaca. Fuck yeah.

sweet haha, I'm watching through some of the gameplay videos, wondering how long it'll take them to sort out the server issue though

God damn, stop talking about it! :lol: Am I correct to assume that the server for purchasing it is still down?
