haven't loaded MW4 in about 4 months so trying to get that going again but it doesn't seem to like win7 64bit ;) otherwise just ME3 multi or something that scratches that mechlab itch.

You could try the new humble bundle, there are some amazing games there that got great reception based on their story, immersion and innovative gameplay rather than flashy graphics. Including Limbo, Amnesia, Psychonauts and Bastion. Should be enough gameplay for months.

If you own a PS3/X360 and happen to like fighting games, I recommend Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown that came out recently, dirt cheap at 15 bucks for bare-bones version, 30 for one with full customization options (well worth it in my opinion). An amazing game, perfect blend of accessibility and substance and potential fun for years, sunk a ton of cash into it in the arcades back in the day. The game Skullgirls is cheap as well, and it's a 2D fighting game that puts most of Japanese ones to shame with its innovative design and the level of technical polish.

Mechwarrior 4 is still fun on Elite, slowly chewing through the Steiner campaign in Mercenaries. Uphil battle, in the snow, both ways. Good gunnery training at the least. For multiplayer, TF2 is still nice to sink a few rounds. MechCommander Gold is an amazing mech tactical game, challenging and immersive and may tide you over in a mech withdrawal. All of those above are free.

Other than that, ME3 multiplayer is still surprisingly robust and fun, as long as you stay away from cheese and farming (which makes it dull IMO).

Ive been playing DayZ Mod for Arma 2, a Zombie survival mod. Although its still in alpha, the game itself is pretty hardcore. It has mechanics for starvation/dehydration/exposure, combine that with "28 days later" style zombies and typically 40+ other players that would kill you for a can of baked beans... oh and did i mention the map itself is 225 km across, which sucks on foot.

Yeah, you either love it or hate it but its an excellent survival game.

Im still playing EVE, although im not renewing my sub after the end of the month.

I downloaded WoT after so many people talked about it on these forums, its not to bad, but I seriously hope MWO is going to be better ;)

Cheers

I was playing Diablo 3 but I just got my money refunded last night. Game was beat on normal mode after about 8 hours and then you just repeat the same quests and maps on a higher dificulty while gear grinding. I was extreamly dissapointed.

EVE Online, StarCraft II, some garbage mobatrash, and going through a dozen shooters I never finished.

Tribes Ascend is badass too.

Getting bored of pretty much all my games...It always happens on summer break, I just nope to the sight of every other games except most anticipated games (in my case, MW: O), so I seldomly play my Xbox, Xbox 360, Game Cube, PC and Wii...Instead I watch useless shows on television (except Tim and Eric: Awesome show, Great Job! tht show makes me lol except for sometimes odd/ too weird sketches) and force myself to play some games such as: WoT, MW 4 Mercs, MechCommander 2, MegaMek (though I usually play like 1 hour or less) or I press F5 like every 2secs while posting something on the forums. I'm somewhat trying to find a job to at least keep me occupied or I'll just watch the upcoming Euro. (Viva Italia ;) )
