Heh.

Shogun 2 Total War (new)
As a lifetime fan of the Total War series this is the game I have waited 
a decade for. I posted a full review in the c.s.i.p.g.strategic group 
but suffice it to say that if you enjoy the campaign game or just the 
battles this is the ultimate Total War experience. The AI has been 
significantly improved while Creative Assembly have managed to keep the 
Japanese feel in all aspects. Now there are castle sieges, naval 
warfare, beach invasions, and awesome battles. A 9.5 out of 10.

Fallout New Vegas (new)
Whee! It's just like FO3 but in Nevada. I'm not sure if I like having to 
self-repair everything as this just ties up skill points and I'd rather 
pay caps. I also find all the special ammo types and ammo crafting to 
fiddley. More realistic, maybe, but I hate crafting in games. It feels 
like a job. I'm far from New Vegas still but this game is great fun. No 
crashes or glitches so far. Sleep/rest doesn't seem to be necessary in 
this game, which is weird.

World of Tanks (ongoing)
My poor panzers are gathering dust because I have been preoccupied with 
samurai and mutant geckos. Even so, I still make the time for a few fun 
battles. I ended up re-purchasing a Luchs just for the speed and fun 
times of the lower tier battles. I see they are pre-selling gold for 
when the game goes live so that must be soon.
