I finally got a decent little chunk of Elemental beta time and was quite impressed with how much there is on the map now. It has me quite anxious for the first build where we can try the larger maps where there will hopefully be a distinctly different early game that's just about your sovereign and the world around him or her, with many turns before the other sovereigns come out of the fog of war.

I had a bit of a rough weekend personally, so I didn't play a ton of games.

I ended up mostly playing Stalker: Clear Sky. I'm trying to do the games in chronological order (bought both of the other two off of Impulse). And just before I got on to post this, I finished my first game of Sins Trinity. Cool game, but the ending was....abrupt. In a 3-way game, the other two empires had at least two planets left. I just about had one conquered and then I was congratulated for winning.

I played Dawn of War:Dark Crusade, Dawn of War:Soul Storm, Dark Crusade-Pro, Dawn of War 2, and  Fall from Heaven 2.

I also cut three tatami mats with a clay-tempered cloud sword (Korean katana)

Civ 4 Fall further... leading swarms of giant spiders and "Mother" over the world... and then undead as the Scions of Patria. (While I should be working)

For some inexplicable reason, I re-subbed to Everquest II.  Bury my head in that until I get Elemental access.

Alan Wake

Some "Elemental" beta, "Spellforce" and some "Gabriel Knight: Sins of the fathers".

I actually played some Civ4: Rhyes and Fall mod and SC2 beta.

Who on earth has time for games?

Team Fortress 2

I thought about playing Elemental, but was afraid of having fun, so I didn't.  Instead I played a bit of WoW - just starting out with my girlfriend, been a nice time killer so far.  I also played League of Legends, my current standby.

Umm.... Team Fortress 2, Splinter Cell: Conviction, Sins of a Solar Empire (Distant Stars Mod), and re-downloaded Guild Wars, Homeworld2 (Complex Mod), Left 4 Dead 2.
