Just started playing CreaVures this morning. It's a really neat puzzle/platformer. It feels closer to The Lost Vikings than Trine did. If you loved Trine and Lost Vikings, give this one a go, it's pretty cheap at only $5 but I heard it's only a couple hours long. I know it was part of an indie bundle so Steam users might already have it and not know it.
Just started Resident Evil Revelations on the 3DS. It's fun, and if you're looking for a game that just plain looks good on the 3DS, this is easily the best I've seen so far. Capcom really did a nice job with it. Makes me look forward to them doing something (hopefully) on the U at some point.
I gotta say, Darksiders 2 was so much more enjoyable the second time around when i skipped every conversation and cutscenes that didn't involve limbs chopping
Still would recommend it when you get past the obvious story padding, when they ask you to get 3 of something just do it for the awesome dungeons and puzzles
Combat is as great and satisfying as ever
Took me 20 hours or so the first time, about 14 the second time
I just bought a laptop, and I'm thinking about playing a computer game for the first time in a million years (since the Counter-Strike era). Since I play MW3 on the 360 a lot, I'm now terrible at FPS games on the computer.
Anyone have any recommended games I may like, which are not FPS games? And yes, I know what Steam is, if that helps.

Firstly, here's a list of free games that are truly worth checking out, most accessible through Steam:
Team Fortress 2, League of Legends, Heroes of Newerth, Tribes Ascend, Lord of the Rings Online (it's free up until a certain point), Black Mesa (Half-Life remake with Source engine, all you need is SDK 2007 kit), DOTA 2, Alien Swarm, Monday Night Combat, Gotham City Impostors (Batman FPS).
Indie Games (cheaper and easier to run):
Super Meat Boy, Bastion, Limbo, The Binding of Isaac, Audiosurf.
RPGs/MMOs:
Guild Wars 2
Torchlight 2 (just picked this up, I prefer it to Diablo 3 so far and it's only 1/3 the price!).
RTS:
Starcraft 2
Company of Heroes
War in Conflict
Sins of Solar Empire
Total War series
Civilization series
Completely sucked back into Diablo. Came out of nowhere, playing daily again. Enjoying it.
Same situation with me, but with Rose Online (Rush on Seven Episodes).
Such a simple mmorpg. Not much direction or "quests" to accomplish. All you're really doing is leveling up, upgrading stats, and mixing/matching armor and weapons.
Bought a 3DS XL with New SMB 2 and Ocarina of Time, 3D effects and new graphics, animations and everything are blowing my mind
3D effect in NSMB2 is meh though
PC wise a whole lot of everything
couple games of Smite a day, couple games of LoL (ARAM) a day, some Dark Souls thrown in there and Borderlands 2 also
Oh and i've been replaying Pokemon TCG Online, it's not in browser anymore, there's an actual client it's alot of fun even if very simplistic
Everyone should check it out, install it, play the tutorial and some CPU league games then we should hold an HF boards tournament with everyone having the same deck
