Shadowrun Returns so far its been entertaining...Also barely started playing Risen for the first time a few days ago.
I'm gonna give Mass Effect another chance, just for completeness' sake. I'm going for a full-renegade no-romance run through all three games (ME 3 is gonna be my first run through that game) and their respective story dlcs. Just to conclude that chapter and close a gap in my gaming knowledge.
Gotten way too sidetracked with Sonic: All-Stars Racing Transformed in the last few days. I'm enjoying the shit out of that game. Best kart racer I've played since Mario Kart DS, but it's a much better balanced game than the latter. I also very much enjoy that the single-player campaign actually boasts a variety of challenges to mix things up. My favorite is definitely the traffic one. Looking forward to some online racing again eventually, since I know it's very good from a trial run I did on one of its free weekends a few months ago.

Other than that, I've been playing Memoria and I'm very much enjoying that. Having played its predecessor most definitely makes the whole story a bit more enjoyable. I've been doing rather well puzzle-wise, although now that I'm a good ways in, I've gotten a little stuck. I'm pretty sure I know what I need to accomplish, but I haven't found the exact solution yet, and I'm trying to resist peaking at a walkthrough. It's just so much more satisfying figuring out adventure games on my own.

Lastly, before I played either of those two I've been having a lot of fun with Shadow Warrior (13). While I still prefer the original crudeness/wackiness, I'm really liking this new one. Pretty damn good for what it is. Took a while before I actually really started using guns (out of necessity). Yup, the melee/sword combat is actually damn good. A sure rarity in its genre. I'll probably try to finish this one off on my next weekend.
I have been playing Bravely Default for the 3DS. The game is really fun and I am about halfway through chapter 4.

Little Inferno is a great, small puzzle game. Release your inner pyromancer! :D

Still playing the old NES games, but I've also been playing some Symphony which is good fun until the flashing lights make my head hurt.

Also started up Valdis Story, which has been really cool. Strangely, for all the flak it gets for platforming controls I am having zero issues with that side of it. I'm having far more difficulty with the combat, getting my ass handed to me on a semi-regular basis.
Hammerwatch. I got it as one of the special daily deals during the winter sale. Even though I'm playing single-player, I'm enjoying it so far.
Still playing Mass Effect 2. I honestly don't think it is possible for me to not enjoy these games. Despite having the games almost memorized, I still manage to have a blast.

Haven't played much more of Icewind Dale, simply because I've been too engrossed in ME2. I did make it through my first combat encounter. It wasn't as difficult as I had expected it would be. I put three of the goblins (I think that's what they were) to sleep with a well-timed and well-placed spell and took out the others with my fighters. The encounter went incredibly well--for the most part anyway. When I first saw the goblins, they let loose with a flurry of arrows at my bard, killing him. I continued with the fight just to get a feel for things, and since it went so well I tried to raise my Bard again with a scroll from the temple. It didn't work for some reason, so I'm going to have to load and hope the fight goes as well the second time. All in all, what little I've played has been fun, and I look forward to being able to devote more time to it.
Right now, as per mondo84's suggestion, I'm trying out Realms of the Haunting and having a real blast with it. I don't know how this one went under my radar for so long, but fortunately there's a thread recommending great overlooked games here on GOG (shamelessly advertising my own created thread, but, hey, there *are* amazing recommendations there).

Seriously, superb game right there.

I'm still finishing Outcast (no, not a typo, I didn't mean Outlast), as well, yet another amazingly good game.
At the moment Wasteland, and am enjoying it despite having my first game's party being in a situation that knocks them unconscious every five seconds! Haha!

Like how they added music ,although I wish there was more variety.

Soon I'll be trying out Temple of Elemental Evil, but before that comes to pass I need to track down some fan made bug fixes that are recommended before playing.

Yep! That would be it!

It was installed before I started playing for the first time. Was running into an issue with the resolutions crashing the game until it was set to 1280 x 900. Past that it seems to be working fine besides a few odd issues here and there.A few minor path finding issues, re-rolling and applying stats when making new characters on occasion won't allow you to continue the character creation process. But otherwise than that I've been fortunate enough to be able to not experience any severe problems (save file corruptions, game breakers, etc.)

If there's one thing I'm quite enjoying right now surprisingly it's actually the sheer act of creating a character. Loving how many different combinations of skill sets and minor quirks (which god/goddess they worship) that are available to use.

The tactical turned based combat is difficult, yet very fun and complex.

The fact that you can have a different opening scenario based on your party alignment that propels the story is a small but awesome touch (reminds me a lot of Dragon Age: Origins).

And another neat feature, right before starting the adventure the game allows you to visit a shop and pick your own starting gear. This also happens right before you board the zeppelin in Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura.

The only thing about the game that I have not been able to delve very far into is the plot. From what a lot of other's have said though it does not amount to much. Hopefully that's not the case since I really enjoy engaging stories.
Xenoblade chronicles for the wii so far seems good
Playing both SpaceChem and Dead Cyborg right now.

SpaceChem is surprising me a little bit with how much I like it. It took me a while to get into it - it was confusing at first and I couldn't see the potential - but once I got my feet under me the puzzles are fun to work - and satisfying.

Dead Cyborg (ep 1) is a little more iffy so far, but I'll probably give it a bit more of a chance. It's a donationware adventure type game so I'm not out anything for trying it , but I can't say I'm enjoying it yet. I want to give it a chance though.
