    Ugh.

    So many wonder video games to explore; not enough hours to try them all.

    What will you happy campers be playing over the weekend?

    I'll likely being playing Fallout 3, but will attempt to dedicate at least an hour to both Silent Hill: Homecoming and the latest Tomb Raider game.

    I'm surprised nobody mentioned Gears of War 2 yet. I've finished (main story) of fallout 3, played WaW and my vote is Gears 2.

    Dead Space, Brothers in Arms, and *gasp* Jade Empire. Just bought it in a clearance bin for $6 so I had to try it out

    Still would like to buy fallout 3 and the new call of duty but I barely have enough time to play the ones above, so until i get through those, the others will have to wait!

    oh how your free time changes once you gradate college and step into the real world!
