This should be a BUSY gaming weekend for me. I picked up Just Cause 2 at Gamestop after Christmas shopping for the kids (Daddy took advantage of the Buy 2 Get 1 deal). Then, a friend also loaned me his copy of Red Dead Redemption. Two sandbox games should keep me busy for a while. Oh, and I picked up 4 GB of RAM for my Macbook and I have a ton of new games to play from the Thanksgiving Steam sale (both PC and Mac) so I have quite a lot on my plate. Oh, and I picked up where I left off in my Dragon Quest IX play-through a few months ago. So yeah, I have some gaming to do.

Can you tell college football season is over for me?

What are you playing this weekend?

I would be remiss if I didn’t point you to some of the killer video game deals over at Amazon.com’s Cyber Monday sale. Twenty bucks off Halo: Reach, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit and twenty-five off Medal of Honor are just a few ways to round out your collection and pick up a few new titles for the long winter nights ahead.

What are you planning on playing this weekend? Maybe a new MMO? I might be able to make that happen. So up until early this morning, I had never heard of the Sci-fi MMO Perpetuum. Have you heard of it? Well, the gracious folks at Avatar Creations have given me a handful of access codes to be used to enter the early access period. If you’re interested in trying out the game, leave a comment here letting us know what you’ll be playing this weekend. I’ll pass the codes out first come, first serve. The only thing I ask (besides the comment here) is that you let us know how the game is.

If PC-based Sci-fi MMO’s isn’t your idea of a good gaming weekend, what will you be playing?

We haven’t done one of these for a while. What’s everyone going to play this weekend?

I finished Dead Rising 2 this past week, so I am going back to work on some of the achievements. Killing 1,000 zombies with my bare hands is going to be boring, but getting the 72k Zombie Genocide Master is going to be AH-SOME!

After I finish a few more achievements, I think I’m mostly done with DR2. It was a fun romp, to be sure. Once I finish with DR2 I’m heading back to FFXIII and hope to do a little running diary of it here on the blog.
