Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler What video games are you playing tonight?

Aah, it's the weekend! Who cares?

Play all day too!

Keep going!

I'll play more in my dreams. I'd better get at least some sleep.

So I guess Torchlight is pretty good then. How does it compare to Diablo II? Pretty similar?

Yeah, definitely in the same vein. I don't really know if the story will be worthwhile yet, but of course I'm obsessed with gaining more powers and finding better equipment.

Man, another 4 hours went by since the last time I looked at the clock. Don't get this game.

Just what I need with a baby 5 weeks away is a game that I get addicted to and takes all my free time, right?

Better get it out of your system now!

Much farther into DragonAge now. Gameplay is good but the storyline is Excellent for a video game. It's like a good book and makes you want to keep picking it up again.

COD MW2 - Wow, great stuff. Better than an solid action movie on the projector. Fun, fun stuff.

Tried Torchlight tonight, as they have a free two hour demo that you can play. I actually wasn't that impressed. Maybe it's all the time I spent playing Diablo 2 years ago, but it felt like the same thing, without as good of graphics. The somewhat cartoonish look didn't do it for me.

That's ok though, I wanted to narrow down my game list. I still have these on it for Christmas.

Kings Bounty: The Legend
Metal Gear Solid 4
Dragon Age Origins

For those not familiar, there was a King's Bounty game years ago that was the predecessor to the Heroes of Might and Magic series. I always liked the original, so I'd like to give the new game a try too. It's cheap (under $20) so why not.
