Weekend Warrior 12/04/09
The winter is really starting to kick in here in the Midwest and we already have some snow hitting the ground, which means weekends will now be spent hiding indoors playing games (there's nothing wrong with that). Read on to find out what the GI staff is up to this weekend, then head on over to the comments section and let us know what's on your play list.
Meagan: Playing more Indy games this weekend so I'll be popping between my PC, Mac, 360 and Wii over the next couple of days. I've already found several gems in my allotment of IGF games and can't wait to plow through the rest of them. I feel like tying up some loose ends this weekend as well, so perhaps I'll go and finally polish off Prince of Persia. All and all, I'm excited for a nice, mellow weekend.
Jeff Akervik: I'll be trying to bridge the level gap between me and my brother in Borderlands. Every time we play together he ends up just plowing through everything, and I just stand there looking like an idiot. I figure if I can get to within five levels of him then things should be a little more even. I might try my hand at The Island of Dr. Ned DLC as well. Go Gophers!
Sean: I'm going to finally get to play God of War II now that I re-destroyed the first one, and I have a copy of The Saboteur in my hand just begging to be played (I will oblige). My grandmother-in-law (is that a relation?) is coming into town before she flies south for the winter, so we'll have some company, and I'll try to get as much time in with the family as possible since I've been mostly MIA this week. Probably some code and tinkering to do for the site, too, so I may be bringing work home to accomplish that.
Phil: My weekend will be spent ignoring the copy of Tony Hawk Ride that Reiner forced on to me so that I can keep blazing a trail through Italy in Assassin's Creed II. When I'm not feeding my addiction for more feathers and glyphs, I'll probably play a bit more New Super Mario Bros. Wii and, as always, some weekend World of Warcraft.
Dan: I plan on watching There Will Be Blood again tonight, but the rest of the weekend will mostly be devoted to gaming. Finished up God of War last night, so I'll be starting its even better sequel soon. Outside of that, there'll probably be a healthy amount of Modern Warfare 2, and I'm still waiting for my Left 4 Dead 2 delivery from Amazon.
Tim: After a long discussion about the merits of House of the Dead: Overkill and almost having it spoiled for me, I've decided to try it out. I'm also playing Silent Hill 3 and Super Mario Galaxy with Luigi. Awesome!
Annette: I intend on a weekend of gaming for sure. I've been a little sick the past few days so staying out of the cold is my main priority. I'm keeping warm with Modern Warfare 2 and Ballad of Gay Tony. I may also try Flower as well.
