Screw Summer! (List of video games that keep you from going outside.)

[elricik]

The thread is simple, post any game your playing thats keeping out of the summer heat. (And try to number them so we can get a list going.) I'll get us started with the two I've been playing the most lately.

1. Fallout 3: Who needs to go outside when you've got a whole post-apocalyptic nuclear wasteland to explore?

2. Red Dead Redemption: Traverse the outside the way man was meant to, from the comfort of your living room. With Red Dead Redemption you can traverse the wilderness for days.

Just two games, really. Maybe three.

1) Team Fortress 2. Now that I figured out why I suck, now I can actually become good. I want to become good again...

2) Disgaea: Dark Hero Days. I will defeat you, Pringer X!

3) Prinny: CIRBTH. I will defeat you, Lil' Asagi!

Edit: Oh, are we supposed to label them as one collective list? That's lame...

It looks like you got the best of the best on there. But you forgot one of my favorite horror games of all time. Eternal Darkness on the gamecube.

I think that's like... £3 on Steam.

OT: Probably RDR and Morrowind. Maybe fit in some Just Cause 2 and both Mass Effects while I'm there.

 

[Snarky Username]

Oblivion. I'm 70 hours in and still haven't gotten to the third main quest...

After that I plan on playing Fallout 2 and 3, two more major time sinks.

Then KotOR, Mass Effect 1 and 2, Dragon Age: Origins. This will be the year of the RPG for me, and RPGs just happen to be the longest games ever.

 

[MarsProbe]

MW2 (for now) and Red Dead Redemption, once I finally pick it up, probably not this month unfortunately.

Though what's really keeping me indoors this summer is the fact I still have to work. Long summer holidays are now just a distant memory, alas....

 

[Calum_M]

Well, I'm currently playing through Final Fantasy X. And I have FFVIII and IX downloaded, so I'm going to have a JRPG-heavy summer. I might get Red Dead Redemption when it gets a bit cheaper.

 

[Ekiless]

Probably finish Just cause 2. Play through fallout 3 again.

Then, im going to whore Crackdown 2 as soon as it comes out. Seriously. I cant wait for it, i loved the first one, and the second one looks just amazing, and alot of fun. In my opinion, atleast.
