The only interesting ones / ones I didn't already have where the last Battlefield & Medal of Honor, Mass Effect 3 and Dead Space 3.

Given Battlefield is most probably only interesting in multiplayer, that Medal of Honor games tend to be snorefest shooter-on-rails, and that I have played neither Dead Space 1 or 2, I said fuck it and went with Mass effect.

I still have to finish the first game. Once that's done I'll only need to wait for a sale on steam on the second episode.
I got Mass Effect 3 as well, though I probably won't play it for awhile yet. I want to replay ME and ME2 again.

Do you have the PC version?

Yes. Steam AND Xbox version of ME1 (got the xbox version as a used bargain but discovered that the gunplay suck ass with a controller), and Origin version of ME3.

Bioshock Infinite is quite fun for the opening 30 minutes so far. But the mouse acceleration being on by default, and tiny PoV by default is rather anoying.

But since this game gives me options I can fix that.

So reading the Let's Play of the Warcraft series on SB.Com and playing HotS has gotten me interested in Blizzard franchises again. I've finally decided to try out World of Warcraft. The free Starter Edition is downloading now.

Just cancel the download now. You'll be doing yourself a favor.

But, but, it's almost finished! I can finally find out what happened to Arthas and Illiden and all those plot threads left hanging from The Frozen Throne.

Arthas dies, Illiden dies. The end.

Hey Los, I found I had 320 bioware points sitting around not doing anything. I have a desire to replay ME and ME2 before playing ME3. The latter has two DLC weapon packs for 160 each, but ME2 has the alternate appearance packs which gives Garrus undamaged armour and has Jack wear a fucking shirt. So I'm leaning heavily towards getting this for any replay of ME2. Are any of the DLC weapon packs for ME3 worth it? (the only other thing I could spend my points on might be ME2's equaliser pack, but it looks pretty ordinary). Also, what about the three mission DLCs - Leviathan, Omega and Citadel? I figure it'll be awhile before I play ME3 so I don't have to get them right away.

Dead Island rules.

Stofsk: the weapons packs for both 2 and 3 are pretty sweet, I'd get them if you don't plan on anything else. The Typhoon and Venom are really fun. As for the story dlc:

From Ashes is basically mandatory. Citadel is awesome, especially since you've been with the series a long time. Leviathan is really cool and helps the ending quite a bit. Omega is fun, but costs too much and is almost totally self contained. It does give you two kickass bonus powers, though.

When you say 'helps the ending quite a bit,' is there a way you can extrapolate on that without getting too spoilery?

I've avoided ME3 DLC because none of it appeared to change anything about the ending.

It goes into the nature and origin of the force behind the reapers.
