I have a nice backlog of games and movies that I want to finish and watch before I start playing back old friends like, say, Diablo II.
Let’s see, here’s the list of what will keep me entertained outside of exams:
- Age of Mythology: my appetite for RTSs is currently not too great, but I’ll get to it sooner or later.
- Pro Evolution Soccer 6: I’m currently playing this, but I really want to stop button mashing and learn to play vg footie.
- Thief – Deadly Shadows: A couple of missions into it, looks and feels great. The only drawback of stealth games is that now I’m playing stealth in all FPS, something that, for example, Far Cry doesn’t afford well.
- Grand Theft Auto – San Andreas: I’m stuck at the airplane school. I’ve got to rack up flying skills. It’s, I hate to say, the first time the game feels like a chore.
- Civilization IV: I got into the tutorial, and when I looked back at the watch, 5 hours had passed. Is this a great game, or what?
- The Great Escape (Steve McQueen FTW!)
- Taxi Driver
- Nosferatu (the 1979 Herzog remake with Kinski and Adjani)
- Aguirre, Wrath of God
- Shining
- The Ages of Lulu
All in all, I think it will be an interesting three months
