EVE:
Yep, the internet spaceship game. Back in action with a new video card, I hung out on the test server with some alliance pals trying a new setup for a Dominix battleship. It may have been the shitty fits other people were using, but the space shoe sucked everything dry with a battery of six energy neutralizers and a good time was had by all.
Dragon Age 2:
I wasn't sure if I wanted to be a rogue or a mage, so I started a new game twice and am alternating between, to get a sense of which style I like better. I think I'm leaning more towards mage (rather the opposite of the last game), possibly because Rock Armor looks badass and Tempest is just too much fun, but I'm not very far in - still raising money for the Deep Roads expedition. Oh, and I accidentally started hitting on Anders. We'll see how that ends up.
Star Ruler:
Picked this up again for the first time since Blah and I did that interview and review tag-team. It's grown up rather nicely, and there's a vibrant modding community with some really cool shit. The mod I'm playing with now, Expanded Universe, adds a couple of strike craft hulls, completely redoes the shield mechanics, and adds stargates!

Yeah, the game really wanted me to go gay with Anders too. I don't know what the deal is. Apparently the gays don't even like that.

That article highlights an interesting double-standard, though. Crazy bald biotic chick propositions male Shepard? Fine and dandy. Grey Warden with a troubled past flirts with male Hawke? Totally not okay!

Seriously the graphics for Star Ruler look really good. I am looking forward to trying this one out.

Thanks for the heads-up on the new patch. As a matter of fact I was thinking of doing a One-Year-Later review on SR. :D
Edit, re DA2: Suskie, I'm beginning to see what you were talking about with regards to the recycled environments. Ugh, I haven't even started the expedition.
