These have been quiet around these parts (Thanks, Nick, for keeping the lights on) lately, but we’re still getting our gaming in when we can. It has been a bit of a struggle for the buttonmasher family to do much because our prime-time gaming time is on the weekends, and the past two month’s worth of weekends have been mostly spent on a remodeling project, completely redoing our master bathroom. BUT! The end is in sight, and this weekend has the potential to be the last weekend of remodeling. Fingers are crossed! (Of course soccer games and other extra-curricular activities keep us busy, but not that busy).
So while gaming will hopefully pick up in the coming weeks, this week will probably light again. But I will definitely find time to get back to New Eden and to EVE Online. I recently discovered I was “doing it wrong” with my current Cruiser Build (a Minmatar Stabber) (“A fun ship to fly, but not a terribly effective one” according to EVE University) so I am anxious to try my new build before I move on to my Minmatar Rupture (“Star of the cruisers“).
If there’s time, I’m still waist-deep in Bioshock Infinite and would really like to make more progress in that. Oh, and there will probably be quite a bit of Kingdom Rush on the iPhone.
What will you be playing this weekend?
– Gears of War, enjoy your week in the spotlight. If it lasts even that long.
– This will definitely go on my “play one of these days” list.
– The all-caps “TWO” let’s you know they mean business.
– Clearly March is the Month of the Sniper.
– I know absolutely nothing about this game.
– As Kevin McAllister said in Home Alone: “It’s for the kids.”
– It doesn’t need a number after it! It’s SimCity. I am SERIOUSLY considering picking this up. but it will put a serious damper in my EVE time, which is going to be taking a hit a few weeks later when Bioshock Infinite hits.
– Go look at the boxart for this game. Seriously, go 
– I thoroughly enjoyed Crysis 2 and while I didn’t completely follow the story or understand what was happening, I would play Crysis 3 given the chance.
– Is Revengeance even a word?
– After reading the reviews and waxing a bit nostalgic for the unforgiving permadeath of Fire Emblem, I may be picking this up.
– If I get more Sudoku puzzles? SOLD.
– I don’t think Nintendo DS is going to be included in many more monthly releases
– And with this, the Sony PSP will also probably be removed the monthly releases.
