What we’re playing this weekend (13-14 August)

12 August 2011

Tarryn van der Byl

A few increasingly blurry, shlurry, ffghhshlurrgy rounds of Halo: Reach Team Swat with some friends and a bottle of vodka later tonight, I’m sure. Tomorrow and Sunday, I’ll probably grind out some Seriously 2.0 stats in Gears of War 2, and maybe finish Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet if I can convince myself to give that dghklgjkldfhkljing boss fight another go.

Dan Parmenter

There will be no gaming this weekend as (A) I have a wedding on Saturday, and (B) I have bugger-all to play anyway. Because (C) the July gaming drought lingers on, thanks to (D) a completely useless release calendar and (E) my stubbornness to refuse to play (F) complete and utter crap or (G) the currently non-existent AAA titles.

(H)urry the hell up, Deus Ex.

James Etherington-Smith

The only games James will be playing this weekend are Airport Check-in and its direct sequels Passport Control and Baggage claim, because he is on his way to the world’s largest video games tradeshow, Gamescom, which kicks of next week in Cologne Germany.

He’s taken our 3DS along for the plane, so he may squeeze a few hours of Zelda: Ocarina of Time in on the way over.

Chris Kemp

Another absent MyGaming staffer, Chris is currently backpacking his way through somewhere infinitely more exotic, interesting, and itchy than the rest of us, so we’re quite sure he won’t be playing any games this weekend.

Nic Simmonds

Like the rest of our team, there’s nothing new really reaching out to me right now. I’ve been sucked back into the StarCraft II leagues by a few friends, so if I do spend any time playing games this weekend, it’s probably be that.
