ArmA2 as ever! I reinstalled Sins of a Solar Empire, but have yet to play it (never really did play this enough, so little time). I might get back into FS2004 next year.
Also playing Nintendo Wii, bowling in Wii Sports, some Sega Bass Fishing (long time favorite dating back nearly 10 years), and Tiger Woods 09. I bought a couple of Virtual Console titles last week, Mario 3 (NES) and Sonic the Hedgehog (Genesis), which I never owned back in the day.
Also ordered a collection of old SNK/Neo-Geo games for the Wii. Several long time favorites on that title.

Neverwinter Nights Hordes of the Underdark
Probably for the last time as a Bard (the last class I haven't finished the game with)
Update: NONE Just finished it. I have more than a dozen unfinished games purchased last years and I don't feel like loading any of them up. I also don't feel like starting the ones that are installed.
Most likely I'll have to force myself to load one of them to get hooked. The gamer identity is hard to retain these days

Right now I'm flying the A-10 in Lomac. I guess I'm getting ready in my head for DCS A-10 or whatever it will be called. I was doing some FSX for a while to try to pick up some good flying habits and mostly tooled around in the Cessna 172, but I did like the Goose as well.
I may put EECH on this system with all the updates. When my old computer died I went to Vista but now I think I may be able to get EECH working on it. I miss the new Apache. Might get Wings Over Israel II soon.

Jeez, since installing a LG Blu-Ray burner I have been so busy converting all my HD home videos to BD I have not had time to play anything. Have to re-install Black Shark since the idiot I am installed that patch that killed it. IL-1946 has been on the back burner for some time. X-Plane is the most used since having gang all here and watching it on my 42" Vizio.
Birthday is coming up, thinking this old Dell 24" Ultrasharp might need an upgrade after watching it on a 42" screen that clearly blew away the Dell.
Have a new Samsung 1 TB HD coming tomorrow from Newegg and and a 30pack of BD-R. Should keep me busy after clearing 2 acres of leaves that are sitting there waiting to blow around again.

The 4.09 IL-2 patch. Oddly enough.

FSX, occasionally FS9. I want to start with Black Shark again.
There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

Oh good grief, it's both great and terrible to be into simulations and games right now.
Rise of Flight seems to be winning, but IL-2 night really equates out to be two or three, as I have decided that maybe learning to fly something other than the Hurricane IIb is something I ought to look into. Black Shark has been taunting me with its desktop icons and the fact that I've got to rework the pre-patch missions over again thanks to failing to back them up before the Last Great Vista Crash (all hail Win7!).
ARMAII is waiting the inevitable re-tweaking of graphics and commands, of course.
Throw in the "just for a few minutes" time thieves of the casual games (Chuzzle, Bookworm Adventures, etc.) that turn into much more once the wife joins in (I like to let her play and provide color commentary as if it were on TV), and there aren't enough hours in the day to really get a full, balanced diet of simulations in.
The opinions of this poster are largely based on facts and portray a possible version of the actual events. More dumb stuff at http://www.darts-page.comFrom Laser: "The forum is the place where combat (real time) flight simulator fans come to play turn based strategy combat."

Been playing Bully: Scholarship Edition for the last few days, and it's been lots of fun! Here's a game that I really enjoy, with lots of liberty, good scenario, very good lifetime, graphics are a bit cartoonish but not bad at all. It's a big change for all the military games I've been playing lately, and a very welcome one!

Just finished mercenaries 2, not as fun as i thought it would be, thought there would be more diversification in explosions,but i finished the game barely using the airstrikes and such,only used for fun, and whats the points of having the game dificult rise, AFTER i beat it ? game was too easy,also how boring i have all this airstrike, and the city is already totaled. Other pet peeve of mine was the change of settins per location, of yeah, i'm cruising in my speed boat, reach the pirates bay (As i call it,lol) and its suddenly night ? who was the idiot who thought of that ? i liked the happy colour around my PMC better. and playing batman arkham asylum, having fun. not much time for playing now, so i don't have any sim installed for the first time. Most of the time i'm on pc on free time i'm drawing or painting (learning to). Stormtrooper keep me updated if you manage to get past the forest ambush, i NEVER beated that map, my units all die on me . also are the gunships imortal ? i remember back then, i think it was the iraq campaign, one was near me, i shot heat,sabot,normal round (or was sabot normal round ?) and the thing wouldnt go down, but a few burst from his green poop, and i'm dead :/ .

FSX, some GA in the A2A cub and some long haul in the default 737.
For a bit of nostalgia with the help of emulators, Secret of Mana (SNES), Mario 64 (N64).

Not playing much at all these days, but been having a go at Warmonger as I've always wanted to try the whole Physx thing, and it looks pretty darn good. Hopefully more games & sims will use Physx soon. Got a GTX260 896meg card as the primary video and a 9800GTX as the Physx card. Also muck around a little with Rfactor and Supreme Commander.
