Your Sunday Gaming Thread

Afternoon my friends, Zakn here leading up the Team.

I work Nights Sunday-Thursday, so today Is Memorial Day for me. Most people are celebratory. I'm not. I tend to lay in bed and be a morose mfer.

Take a moment of your day off and realize that it was because some Mothers Son died fighting in a random shithole so your dumb ass could BBQ. I'd rant, but 'm a Gaming Moron.

(edit...I think this published too early. Putting it back up... Zakn)

Been playing a ton of Mario Tennis Open on my 3ds...I'm deliberately avoiding a finishing push on Mario Land 3d. It's been my experience that I'll be suddenly good at a level since my sub-conscience has solved the problem the game is posing to me. But you deal with the Mario you know. Here's a quick look from Giant Bomb

I finished the first 4 tourneys, but now it's stupid hard. I like that I can can jump into a match play a bit, and then i'm done. I don't like the way you have to hold the damn thing, so I hope they patch it. My buddy at work got a 3DS for his kid, and he's been bringing it to work. We've been having fun doing Mario Tennis and Mario Kart 7. I really like what the 3DS does with local multi-player.

Diablo Stuff....I have not played enough of it as the horde prolly has, but it's pretty good. I'm not happy with the Monk nerf, but nerfs are nerfs... Post about it.

Civilization 5 is onsale this weekend on Steam. Check it out. I don't know about the feasibility of doing a Moron game, but I think it could be fun.

Also, what about a game of Diplomacy? Let me know what ya'll think. If we get enough people interested, I'll set a game up. Or you can!

Have a Wonderful Memorial Day. *tips hat and thinks of the lost.

SilverGTP here, hoping you are having a great weekend. Be sure to do something to honor our fallen soldiers because our lousy president isn't doing squat.

First up is the news that Valve is collaborating with the makers of PAYDAY: The Heist on a new co-op game. There's no official word on what form such a game will take, but expect robbing banks while being chased by hordes of zombies.

Looking for a Memorial Day fix of war games? Look no further, check these out:

Battlestations Pacific

Empire: Total War

* bonus - with the new Warpath Campaign, you can play as Elizabeth Warren and her family as they defend their Pow Wow Chow from the evil paleface!

38 Studios Cuts Entire Staff after spending $50 million of taxpayer money from a Rhode Island state loan. It seems that government is no good at investmenting money. Who knew?

The all-knowing and oh-so-trustworthy folks at CNN say video games and porn are ruining men. They just don't want us to have any fun. Take away my video games and porn, and I will go full-on Hulk, smashing everything I see.

Don't forget to get your free Mass Effect DLC on May 29. This does not include the alternate endings but it should keep you busy until that DLC is released later this summer.

Finally, here's a trailer for Grand Theft Auto V, due later this year:

As always, find me on Twitter.
