Which games are keeping you company this weekend?



The week's end is upon us! Time to rejoice, consume unhealthy amounts of food, sleep, relax, and play a lot of videogames. Not necessarily in that order. But weekends are not about order, they are about wonderful, uninhibited, guilt-free fun.

So which games are you playing this weekend to achieve the fun? Go on, share your Weekend Playlists with us. They can include single-player games, multiplayer games, console exclusives, anything - we are not judging. In fact, we are sharing too!


Looking for some inspiration, perhaps? The GOG.com releases of the week provide plenty:

You can wreck the dead with your dancing routines in the new <span class="bold">Crypt of the NecroDancer DLC</span>
You can crawl into the labyrinthine dungeon of <span class="bold">Barony: Cursed Edition</span>
You can catch up to the upcoming <span class="bold">Blood and Wine</span> expansion for <span class="bold">The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt</span>
You can puzzle/platform your way into the enigmatic heart of the <span class="bold">Braid</span>
You can solve this giant riddle of an island as <span class="bold">The Witness</span>
You can blow away aliens with a super-tank in <span class="bold">Uprising 2: Lead and Destroy</span>
You can build your own <span class="bold">Goliath</span> and play fisticuffs with huge monsters
You can blast into space and become a <span class="bold">Star Ruler 2</span> with the new <span class="bold">DLC</span>
You can fight under the neon lights, practicing your awesome <span class="bold">Megamagic</span>

pbaggers: I'm done with my finals, so I now actually have the time to either play some games or learn some new software.

Assuming I go with games, I'll play STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl. Might instead play a twitch shooter for a bit, if that game pisses me off too much.

I wish my computer had the processing power for the Metro games.
STALKER is an amazing series, I love Metro but definitely prefer STALKER.

Humorously, after my finals last year but before my summer class I played STALKER (pretty much all of them) a lot. My favorite is Call of Pripyat for casual play, atmosphere and playing the story goes to Shadow of Chernobyl, and finally Clear Sky just looks best to me.

Come to think of it that as about the same time I played a lot of Metro also. Slight preference toward Last Light, which brought me around on more modern shooters such as itself. I like its plot and gameplay the best but think 2033 had the slightly better atmosphere. They are both pretty excellent.
Just beat the original Doom for the first time, still a great game.
I'll probably boot up Doomseeker and go on a random game. Either that or play some OpenRCT2.

It's amazing that Doom/Doom 2 multiplayer is still very much alive these days, let alone with it's own dedicated source port and server browser.

Just got the new Hellgate: London (Revival Patch) up and running on 10x64. Won't be playing anything but that all weekend long :)
I'm about halfway through my second playthrough of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance (last playthrough was maybe 2 years ago), but that's on hold for a bit whist I try out Arma 3 during its free weekend. If I enjoy the campaign after a few hours, I'll probably buy it and then go back to finishing Revengeance.
Playing Warcraft III and maybe will also play some Pac Pix on the DS.
Playing Unturned with a bunch of friends, but after that FF-X will probably take up my whole weekend
finishing an old great: Sanitarium, then will look at another adventure game to start, perhaps one of the tex murphy series
What am I playing? Well I'm ending my RE series hit or trying too, so it's either the TW series or maybe the AC series next on my queue for looking at, too many Steam games that GOG does not have...yet
I just finished the second Class Trial in Dangonronpa 2; I'll probably play that a bit more (great game so far, but I'm pretty ambivilant about some of the new/changed minigames), and maybe some Stardew Valley.
Just finished the Heart of Stone add on for the Witcher. Now I'm ready for Blood and Wine. Can't wait until it downloads.
I guess I'll try getting through Zombi (PS4), but I'm pretty close to just uninstalling it and playing something else (maybe I'll replay Bayonetta 2).
I'm on the Jet Ski level in the first Uncharted on PS3. IIRC it's called the Sunken City.
Majesty² Collection, Torchlight (1) and/or Spellforce (1!!) Platinum
Terraria
Talos Principle
some World of Tanks
Might And Magic 7
Battle Isle 2
Infinifactory
Rocket League

and maybe some Startopia :)
