Looking forward to El Shaddai, DiRT 2, Halo Wars, and XCOM: Enemy Unknown this weekend.
Guild Wars 2 for me. Got its hooks into me last weekend and it may be a bit before I pry them out.
That doesn't look like Skyrim.
I'm on break! Also, I'm playing Daggerfall.
Arkham Asylum, ladies and gents, and perhaps a little bit of Morrowind (digging back in to get the ending of the main quest. Has to happen someday, non?).
Probably gonna stick to Paper Mario: SS this weekend, though I may buy some game time and get back into the swing of things on World of Warcraft in preparation for patch 5.2.
Friday I'm installing the "Suck it up, you're not pretending any more" DLC to "Pretend I'm a Comedian." I got cast to be in a one-off show downtown.
I will also resume being as much of a husband and father as my family will allow.
Persona 4 Golden
Pokemon Black 2
And my rightful place as the left leg of Voltron.

That's awesome! Have fun with it man!

Damn straight! GO VOLTRON!
As for me it's board games Saturday afternoon then playing/finishing Vanquish. After that, it's left arm of Voltron with a sprinkling of ZombiU to taste.
All this talk of Voltron caused me to get this song earwormed...
Aye. My new wheel just came in so I look forward to installing a cup holder for my beer and hauling some hazardous materials around Europe.
Surviving winter in Don't Starve. Callus training in Rocksmith. Playing around with the budget for a Titan. What fun!

That crazy Nvidia card?
I apparently have grinding to do in Ni no Kuni.
I also want to get in some board games like Ascension.
Nino Kuni for me. Still a long way to go on that one.
And, ahem, probably some just dance 4 in an attempt to lose weight while having fun. Yes, I am a man who just loves to dance

You know...I'm *this* close to checking out that game. It seems like the most ridiculous concept in the world (I mean, you're just driving a truck, right?), but I have heard many people talking about it.

There's a demo on Steam.
You also run a trucking business, optionally taking out loans, buying trucks and hiring drivers and expanding your trucking empire into other cities by buying more garages. You can upgrade your garages and trucks. There's an experience system and skills to put points into that unlock stuff like fuel effenciency, more expensive cargo, longer hauls (for more money), hazardous cargo licenses, etc.
But ya, mostly you drive a truck around hauling stuff from point A to point B, yelling at other a**hole drivers, and admiring the scenery. And you can flip on the radio and listen to real European radio stations that are streamed to you. I have unfortunately found out that radio stations in other countries play just as much Taylor Swift songs as they do here. Though one of the stations (I think out of London) hilariously replaces her yelling in the chorus with what I think was the yell from one of those screaming goat videos.
More portable grindy dungeon crawling, Voltron style, with Strange Journey. Also Persona 4 : Golden. Also more Skyrim, because 232 hours so far on the steam-counter is clearly not enough.
Might give that Teleglitch game a look as well, looks pretty nifty.

It's basically Freelancer, but with no space pirates. (I think? I only played the demo.)
(Maybe Aussie Truck Simulator will have them.)

It would be totally bad-ass if you could hook into your iTunes and stream podcasts from locally on you computer, just like when I'm doing my real-world commute.

Is it grindy? It doesn't feel grindy to me, but I both enjoy the combat system and take full advantage of the opportunities to talk my way out of battle or run away if I'm not interested.

There's a text file that controls the streaming which you can edit to add/remove your own entries, but I haven't looked at the format it's in or how it works. You also have the option of dropping MP3's into a folder and it will play those instead.
I've finally broken free of Guild Wars 2, so this weekend will see a lot of Torchlight 2 and Dishonored. I'll also continue playing Fire Emblem on my 3DS for a little while every evening.

At times it can be, but the portable nature of the game makes it so much more tolerable in bite-sized chunks. It is, in fact, the only SMT game besides Devil Summoner 1 that I've beaten.

If there's no demo available, search for it out on Twitch.tv. There's almost always a few people streaming it alongside some hilarious commentary.
Crysis, Bit.Trip Runner, and Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time. Of course, some Binding of Isaac and Chivalry will probably sneak their way in too, as always.
Lets see...
Fire Emblem Awakening + Etrian Odyssey 4 + Strange Journey
Sounds good to me.

Yup! The CUDA workstation could use an upgrade.
Still working on my Silent Storm playthrough. Will probably twiddle around with Skyrim too, but I'm on my 3rd or 4th start of this game since it came out and still haven't made it past the first town. I'm not sure why I can't muster up the drive to play enough for it to set the hook, but it's probably the memories of the thousand plus hours I've lost to its predecessors that makes it a bit daunting.
