WRUP: Post-E3 exhaustion edition
With E3 going on, it's possible that the Big Download staff has spent more time watching videos of upcoming games than playing current ones. But the weekend is finally here, and we're looking forward to getting some time that's hands-on instead of just eyes-on with our favorite hobby.
Lead blogger David Craddock will be taking a break from almost single-handedly holding the site together while John Callaham has been at E3 to play Final DOOM (a classic!) on his PC and Civilization Revolution on his Xbox 360. James Murff will be taking a break from his usual indie fare to play Team Fortress 2 and Company of Heroes with his buddies. When they're not around, he'll be laying the SMACdown with Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri. Eli Shayotovich is going to be lopping off limbs in Age of Conan.
Lastly, I'm in the middle of moving halfway across the continent, and I had to ship my desktop via UPS ground, so only my notebook is gonna be accessible over the next few days. Therefore low spec games are the flavor of the weekend -- Sam & Max Episode 4 and Fallout. I'm also going to be playing a bit of Rule of Rose on the PS2 (well, technically PS3). But that's us. How about you? What aRe yoU Playing?

Lots and lots of COD4.
and when my friends that have crappy computers want to play something, I play some good old starcraft with them. Idiots don't know what they're missing by having 360s instead of good PCs....we could be playing sins of a solar empire or supreme commander FA instead of starcraft :[
(you'd think since they all love RTS games they'd go the pc route? *sigh* Halo is just too popular....)Posted at 9:15PM on Jul 18th 2008 by Eric Jackson
