Which games are keeping you company this weekend?



Whoa, it's the weekend already?! That means less time spent on meeting deadlines and more time spent on meeting our untimely virtual deaths! Or building stuff. Or solving puzzles. Or scoring goals. Or doing other cool stuff that our fleshy selves cannot (yet) accomplish.

So which games are keeping you busy these days?
Go on, share your Weekend Playlists with us. They can include single-player games, multiplayer games, console exclusives, anything - we are not judging. In fact, we are sharing too!


Looking for some inspiration, perhaps? The GOG.com releases of the week are here for you:

- You can hop around the enchanting, dimly-lit rooms of <span class="bold">Lumo</span>
- You can turn hordes of monsters into piles of sweet loot in <span class="bold">Torchlight II</span>
- You can revisit a recently updated galaxy and become the new <span class="bold">Master of Orion</span>
- You can slice, dodge, and jump your way to your queen in <span class="bold">Momodora: Reverie Under the Moonlight</span>
- You can build unlikely machines that might or might not fly in <span class="bold">SimplePlanes</span>
- You can terrorize the streets as the uncontrollable <span class="bold">OmniBus</span>
- You can leave your mark in the architectural history of the world in <span class="bold">Caesar&trade; IV</span>
I recently bought some indie bundles and today I added Torchlight II here on GOG. Since however I still haven't finished Torchlight this will have to wait a bit. At the moment I am playing some of those games from the bundles: Adam's Venture Chronicles, Sword of Asumi and Corrosion.

Replaying The Witcher Series in preparation for Blood and Wine.

butcherbay: Diablo 2 most of the time. Plants vs zombies. Getting into 2 worlds.

mecharma: Two (green) thumbs up!

...get it? Green...because of PvZ...no?...:(
Thanks. He he, I'm addicted to PvZ. Taking a 15 min dose most days. Today i made it outside in the sun & played a game of tennis. Real tennis. That was nice.
Skyrim playthrough of questlines that I didn't play in 1st play (in 2011/12) and DLCs.
Act of war fun play vs AI with friends.
And preserving Diablo 3 items from season and unistalling it.
Well I finished Uncharted: Drake Fortune on PS3 last weekend. It was pretty cool. I had a legendary shootout in the church toward the end before those zombies came out of nowhere. Then I started fighting the Chimera in Resistance: Fall on Man earlier this week. So I'll be finishing that game and Okami for the PS2 has been on my mind lately.

vicklemos: Update: ended up playing RoM thru lan for 2 hours. Couldn't be happier!

maladr0Id: Man, I don't think I've played anything on LAN since...Starcraft? Oh yeah, those were the days - 3vs3 till the dead of night and beyond :P

@vicklemos, it's clear that you loved Pajama Sam and it looks like a kid-friendly game. Would you say it's also a girl-friendly game? Looking for some cute/accessible point'n'click to sneakily ease my gf into the genre ;)

In other news, I am very satisfied with my choice to try Remember Me this weekend. It's a bit rough around the edges but it reminds me of my beloved Beyond Good & Evil (I also enjoyed Enslaved: Odyssey to the West for similar reasons). Sadly, the inexplicable performance hiccups persist, no matter what options I tweak from the menu :/
Good ol' lan days. Trust me: things only got better when lappies came. Wi-fi lan gaming, if one can call it that way, is also supreme ;P
Dude, when it comes to pointsies for girls, my bet is definitely Primordia.
Go for it, and I can attest that chicks dig it, I'm dead serious. Both my wife/sister in law begged for more Primordia goodness over the course of some days. BSOD! :P
Also, great thing to see you're diggin' Remember Me. Looks pretty intense. Unfortunatly didn't run that great in here.
And BG&E? Curious... that's another one that chicks dig, no joke! :)

Again, it's all personal. Had A LOT of gaming-chicks related stuff over the years, ranging from Killer7 to Army Men, so pick your poison and have fun bruh ;D

six-: All my time have gone to Overwatch since it's release.
+1
I'm continuing my Fallout 4 playthrough and maybe start on tackling my GOG backlog by resuming Police Quest 2.
I did a quick playthrough of Braid, and...that's it.
Legend of Grimrock.
Almost There

Oh BG&E has already been tested on girls and it works wonderfully, indeed :)

Primordia + senioritas, huh? Would never have guessed. I am actually halfway through the game myself - lost my saves at some point and can't muster the energy to go back right now but one day...

Remember Me final update: very enjoyable game overall, marred by some self-impossed limitations and a somewhat underwhelming conclusion to the story (at least for my tastes). Would love for a chance to explore that world in more detail, the premise was really intriguing. All in all, it was the perfect palate cleanser I was looking for in preparation for some delicious Blood and Wine.

The games that kept me company this weekend were Company of Heroes and Call of Juarez.
Call of Juarez seems quite fun so far. Somehow it never gets old to headshot people in slow motion with an arrow and then retrieve it from their corpses. It has some interesting mechanics for its time. Shame it isn't on GOG.

Didn't play much this weekend, but did spend some time with the epic Stalker mod Call of Chernobyl, with permadeath, starting in Pripyat outskirts.
I survived a few hours once. :) Sessions usually ended with "Oh damn! Bugger it!"

Beyond Good and Evil is one of my niece's absolute favorite games. I think she completed it 3 or 4 times. So I can concur that chicks dig it. ;-)

The Gamecube version is the definitive version though. The controls are better, the performance and graphics are solid, and the cutscenes don't stand out from the rendering. If you are one of the 100 million people that have a Wii, the Gamecube version will play on that...
Fallout 4 : Far Harbor
Pillars of Eternity
The Witcher 3
