Frozen Synapse is pretty cool. A good friend of mine is really good at it. He is ranked first in the entire world....

World of Tanks. Don't suppose we have a Specialist Games clan out there somewhere?

Played WarThunder of a while but in the end it is boring.

I miss a real campaign like the good old Knights of the Sky had.

Does anyone here have any suggestions for good Amnesia mods? 

I absolutely loved the base game and the sequel "A Machine for Pigs".  The best mod by miles is "The Great Work" which has so much good work in it it is better than the original Amnesia I might say - apart from a couple of bugs.  I also enjoyed "White Night" which starts off brilliantly and then turns to mushy Silent Hill fan service nonsense at the end.

I've just got a new computer and so can play StarCraft II and Diabolo III.

Holding off on Total War Rome II until they bring out a 'Gold' version as I hear there are many issues and around a dozen patches already!

Hey David,

Starcraft 2 is a great game. Let me know if you ever want to play some games online.

I bought Rome 2 the moment it was released and was really dissapointed with it. There were so many bugs and the game looked so ugly. I really love the total war series and would suggest to get shogun 2 instead of rome. It is really cool and you can get it for like 5 euros.

Recently acquired Hammerwatch and Dead Man's Draw on Steam.

The former is a classic pixelly top-down dungeon crawler hacky-slashy game, the latter a simple card game of much amusement.

Also finally started playing CounterStrike: Global Offensive, now that I have a computer that'll run it. Also recently started playing some World of Warplanes, though it's a little meh because the hangar screen forces max graphics settings, which my computer won't do.

Rome 2 is awful. I feel so ripped off. I'm one of the suckers who preordered it.

I strongly recommend wargame airland battle. Amazing, amazing game, wargame red dragon is coming out soon too.

It's a modern day tactical battle game with no base building. Stellar....

Yes I am really tempted by Wargame, especially the deck build angle.

I've played that one game more than any other in the past year.

Cheers Toon.

I suspect the amount of free time I have to play though, it'll be a long time before my skill level is up to playing HtH online without embarrassing myself!

Has anyone here played Banished? It's a medieval city-builder. Supposedly good, but as I'm about to sink a large sum of money into a new computer, I'd prefer to wait and see if anyone I know can recommend it.

I recently got into Dominions 4.  Also holding off on Rome2 TW until a Gold/GotY edition.  Not specifically for reasons of bugginess (although that's definately a factor) but because I learned long ago that the TW series will spend a year or two releasing expansions and then bundle them all together, saving me much time and effort if I just wait for the Gold edition.

If I may insert a shameless self-promotion here  ;D I've started putting up some LPs on my Youtube channel.
