Wow, it almost took me two months to make my first 2010 post. Well, that's because I have less and less time to game, let alone write about it.
The main gaming time is spent with an awesome group: the 6th Sense Coop Community.
They're very similar to dslyecxi's shacktac as in they do "milspec" coop ArmA 2 missions of varying scale. I prefer 6th Sense though because of two reasons: They're european, so games start at 8 pm MET rather than 00:00, and the ping's better. Also, they're a tad less strict with their rules and need a tad less dedication, which suits me better. Still, shacktac's a great group too, so if you're interested in great coop ArmA 2 gaming, get in contact.
Other than that, I recnetly found Rise of the Argonauts in the budget bin of a store and I bought it for a whopping 6,99 €.
Now I was interested in that game not only because Ed Del Castillo's fame from classic C&C (free to download nowadays), but because I really like the ancient greek setting.
But as it wasn't that well recieved critically back when it came out, I missed out on it. Which was a shame really, because despite it's flaws, it's a great game. Surprisingly, it pretty much feels like a shorter version of Mass Effect, despite the quite opposite setting. It's quite dialogue heavy and the action is adequate, so of you see it and like games that feel like they're made by Bioware (despite not quite that classy), give it a go if you find it cheap.
