What Game Are You Playing At The Moment?

[standardman]

Valve are selling the original Half Life game for 98 cents on steam! It's to celebrate 10 years since it's release. Great game, great mods. Ends tonight.

Buy it.

For me its: Fable 2, COD5, Left 4 Dead, and Mirrors Edge

Im going to spend the holidays playing nothing but Fallout3, Banjoo, and GH with the GF.

Pretty much every goddamn thing. I haven't got around to finishing with Crysis, GTA IV or Spore yet.

EDIT: OOOH!

Don't mean to flame, but... this is easily one of the most over-rated games for any system right now (besides Halo 3 and Fable 2). Control scheme basically devolves into a bunch of random Wiimote waggling. Single player is the definition of garbage in terms of story, controls, atmosphere, etc. But, I know that it wasn't made with single player in mind. So then why is the multiplayer such junk?
This is one of the few games I tried SO desperately to get into because I actually paid money for it (the others were fantastic). Buying this was a bigger waste than devoting 4 gigs of my bandwidth to download Far Cry 2... and if anyone can make a valid argument why THAT'S a good game, I'd like to hear it.

Backburner: COD 5, GHWT, Left 4 Dead, and Fable 2/Fallout 3/Dead Space (the last 3 are for achievement whoring purposes)

Did you just complain about having to pirate a game?

It disgusts me that I wasted bandwidth pirating that game. Those 4 gigs would have been better spent on porn, hilarious videos of cats in whimsical situations, and tech demos... which is essentially what FC2 was; minus the vag and funny cats.

I've heard great things but some niggles (too many random encounters and the gun locking up thing not happening for NPCs).
