As Andrew pointed out there's a distinct theme in box art and game's primary colors these days - just look. Coincidentally all three of those titles will be on the staff's gaming queue this weekend in Outland, Mortal Kombat and Portal 2. And as diverse as that lineup is in terms of gaming genres, the staff is just as diverse - I mean one of us is doing something called "a royal wedding."
Nick "bapenguin" Puleo - "I'll be checking out some more Outland and Mortal Kombat as well as playing SOCOM 4 in single player...because....yeah...."
Marc "DjinniMan" Allie - "I might try to finish Lost Planet 2 this weekend. Other than that, it'll pretty much be impulse plays."
Mike "pheriannath" Katsufrakis - "I'm going to change this up a bit - Commenters! What should I play?"
Jim "txshurricane" McLaughlin - "If I get the chance, I'm going to try and finish the Resident Evil 5 campaign."
Katrina "Shadokat Regn" Pawlowski - "I'm apparently going to sleep all weekend. Or play Pokemon Black and Portal 2."
Andrew "Cubninja" Gaskill - "My focus will be on the Outland and Portal 2 co-op campaigns, as well as the massive Challenge Tower from Mortal Kombat. Maybe I'll jump into some fellow editors Lost Planet 2 or Resident Evil 5 campaigns, if I get the time. "
Tally "xelissa" Callahan - "Mortal Kombat, I hope... if it ever comes in the mail."
Sam "Samoza" Tyler - "I'm currently watching the Royal Wedding. I will not be gaming at all this weekend, I think I am getting withdrawal symptoms already."
Jason "Origami Panther" Love - "I'll be checking out some Outland as well and doing a local co-op with some indie games!"
What are you weekend plans?
