Several games: DayZ (it's more fun that I thought), Super Hexagon (awesome!), and other indie games.

Currently: Gears of War 2 (of course since its my favourite modern game), Civ 5, Ocarina of Time 3DS remake (which I'm enjoying but its not as good so far as everyone makes it out to be not sure if its just the remake or what) and a few more lightly.

I bought some games in the Steam sales, but I'm mostly working for school a.t.m.

Played some Anno 2070 though, can't keep working all day can I

I love Super Hexagon. If you like indie games, I can't recommend The Swapper enough; it's a fantastic puzzle game with a great sci-fi horror atmosphere. My favorite indie games of the year are:

Ocarina is a classic that was amazing for its time given that it was the first Zelda to be executed in 3D. It pretty much proved that such a game could work. I don't think it holds up as the "best game of all time" or even the best Zelda, though. It does hold up as a solid game, though.

The best Zelda game on 3DS is, without a doubt, A Link Between Worlds. Get it as soon as you can. I assure you that you won't be disappointed.

I've only had a bit of time to play around with it so far so I can't really give a verdict. The minimalist, sort of cel-shaded graphic style (no doubt helpful in managing so many moving actors on the screen) is actually beautiful in motion. Being able to zoom from ground view to solar system view is really impressive, too.

As to game play, all I can say is I also think it seems promising. I never played the old Annihilation games because I always heard they were excellent in theory but simply didn't run well on even fantastic PCs. Now that GPUs are a lot more powerful, I'm dipping my toes in. It runs smooth as silk so far. I'll report back when I've had more time with it.

Good things will happen when i get a new computer, however right now its Dungeon of The Endless, Chivalry MW & DW, Civ V, Reus and Endless Space.

With a new computer I would totally get into Planetary Annihilation and play all my old games... at their full power level. I have cared little about money and graphic quality because I have always been short of both, so I appreciate both more when i have them.

Oh, yeah, I absolutely understand. I was totally entrenched in the idea of "console wars" back when I only had enough money to afford one. I had to justify my decision.

Now that I've been an engineer for a few years and can play whatever I want, I get caught up in more esoteric stuff like ambient occlusion, parallax mapping, and super sampling.

In the end, I care about art style more than raw polygons. I still appreciate good technical execution, though.

I actually love indie games: I go from one to another, without necessarily finishing them - but it's just because I feel like I never have enough time! I grabbed The Swapper during the sales: it looks really good, and it turns out a friend of mine worked on it so yeah, I "have" to play it.

Currently on my Xbox One upload studio. Wait that not a game just uploading some videos I did while playing BF4,

Ryse son of Rome, Battlefield 4, Fifa 14 only game I got downloaded so I play this while waiting for updates or game installs, Lego Marvel Superheroes, Zoo tycoon one I can play when my Nephew is here. and Dead Rising 3.

Xbox 360 SR4, Carrier Command, Skyrim or Obliviion

PC Total Annihilation, Star Wolves and Star Lancer

Mac - ES mostly in offline mode because where I work Steam will not work, Worms United, Football Manager 2013 and The Witcher which runs pretty well on my Mid 2009 Mac book pro.

If you wondering why I have so much time is because I work at a School so I get some nice Holidays.

Excellent!

Also, I completely forgot Anitchamber came out this year. Easily my favorite puzzle game after Portal. It's absolutely mind-bending.

That said, it's also one of the few games to ever give me motion sickness (until, suddenly and thankfully, it didn't).

Right now,

DotE and that's about it.

Time is my most precious commodity right now and I seldom have the time to play more than one hour at a time... tops...
