The Witcher 2 finally made its way to consoles, so now we’re all finally figuring out why Adam was harping about it all last year. Also, Fez is fun.

Jeff Cork: I’ve been playing the Witcher 2 over the past few days, and I’m hoping to do a couple of marathon sessions this weekend. My main goal is to find Geralt a shirt. His back is a pretty nasty mess of scars and fresh wounds, and I’m getting less and less excited about looking at it. For a complete change of pace, I’m also going to try to fire up some Rock Band 3. It’s been more than a year since I last played it, and I’m curious to see if I’m still any good at expert-level guitar. My prediction: kind of.

Andy McNamara: I really want to play Witcher 2, but I'm still not done with Xenoblade Chronicles (which I am enjoying by the way), so I will continue to grind through Xeno. Otherwise, I have a couple bike rides planned, a multiplayer Gears of War 3 session on the schedule, and I'm sure I will take a couple breaks to continue my play through of Fez.

Ben Hanson: I want to keep making progress in Xenoblade but I fear the bottomless time-pit that is Trials Evolution. I downloaded the game last night and it consumed my soul. Other than those two, I have gone back to the remake of Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit and am still madly in love with it. Have a good weekend!

Matthew Kato: Going to be playing Trials Evolution this weekend. The only reason I probably won't be throwing my controller is that I don't have a backup.

Jeff Marchiafava: My game time this weekend will be devoted primarily to downloadable games, thanks to Fez and Trials Evolution. Both offer nice bite-sized gaming experiences, which I appreciate after coming off of Mass Effect 3. Especially if I jump into The Witcher 2 one of these days…

Kyle Hilliard: I finished Mass Effect 3 last weekend, so I can finally move on with my life. I have chosen Fez as my next endeavour, with maybe some Trials Evolution sprinkled in for good measure. I have also been thinking really hard about tackling The Witcher 2, as well. My wife has first dibs on that one though, so I will have to wait until she gets to the second disc, and then I can start playing on the first.

Kingdoms of Amalur DLC. Both of them, to clean up Dead Kel trophies and go through this Teeth of Naros.

And a little Batman: Arkham City.

Witcher 2, that is all. Oh and Fez

RESIDENT EVIL 5!!
by Dean Marchese Friday, April 20, 2012 at 07:10 PM

I'm going to finish up Kid Icarus: Uprising's campaign, loving it. Probably watch Captain America or Thor or both because I can hardly keep it together waiting for this Avengers movie on the horizon. Maybe play some Shadow of the Colossus and get some Halo: Reach multiplayer in. Other than that, spending time with the mrs! Have a good weekend everyone!

STAR WARS WITH KINECT!

Saw Wrath of the Titans, give it about a 5, good ending but just as bad as the first.
by Andrew Friday, April 20, 2012 at 07:13 PM

Battlefield 3 PS3 GI Server, Dynasty Warriors 7, and i might get back to my insanity run through Mass Effect 3
by Praetorian44 Friday, April 20, 2012 at 07:14 PM

Finished up Enslaved, which is an awesome game, and a couple days ago I started Red Faction: Guerrilla and that will probably take up most of the weekend.
by David Slee Jr Friday, April 20, 2012 at 07:15 PM

The Witcher 2 and Trails of Evolution have completely taken over as far as gaming goes.

As soon as I'm done wrapping up Bastion, I'll be diving back into Skyward Sword (It astounds me that I still haven't finished this game). I may also make some progress into Mass Effect 1 and Chrono Trigger. I'm also feeling the urge to buy a copy of Xenoblade Chronicles. I have this strange feeling that it's gonna be one of those games that sells out after a few months and will then be impossible to find. Can anyone tell me if this is so?
by Zebra3 Friday, April 20, 2012 at 07:17 PM

Mass Effect easy playthrough. I want to see EDI survive the destroy ending with my own eyes.
by The Dark Lord Revan Friday, April 20, 2012 at 07:17 PM

I'll be playing on my thief in Skyrim and maybe make a new character in Reckoning. Or maybe some ME3. I dunno.
by Gabe Alves Friday, April 20, 2012 at 07:19 PM

Just because you finish mass effect once doesn't mean your done you still gotta master multiplayer and play the story once again but this time do all the extra stuff
by Mr. Derp Friday, April 20, 2012 at 07:19 PM

Starting MGS Peace Walker and Jak 2 and still playing ME3.
by Dr Robotnik Friday, April 20, 2012 at 07:19 PM

Nabbing Sonic, knitting, fishing, and trying to get PETA off my back.
by System of a Down Friday, April 20, 2012 at 07:20 PM

Finishing getting all the achievements in Darkness II and L.A. Noire, then continuing my Witcher 2 playthrough.
by Commander Shepard Friday, April 20, 2012 at 07:20 PM

I'll be playing Skyrim, replaying the entire Halo series in anticipation for Halo 4, and playthrough ME3 for the umpteenth time.
by Dark Lord Kaan (Skullmanic) Friday, April 20, 2012 at 07:22 PM

I told u last weekend. Ugh. Twilight princess on Wii and soul calibur.
by The Gigicorn Friday, April 20, 2012 at 07:22 PM

Gamecube all the way! My PS3 is still jacked up, so Tales of Symphonia it is.
