What are you playing 4/08 edition

Has there been a better time to be a gamer?

Currently in my rotation:

PC
BM 2009
DDS: College Basketball
Fairway Solitare
Civ 4

360
GOW
NCAA College Hoops 2k8
MLB 2k8
NHL 08
Dead Rising

Wii
PES 2008
Super Mario Galaxy

Tons of great games right now and there's never a dull moment gaming wise at my house right now.

My 12 year old daughter plays one game every night... The Sims on the PC, talk about someone who gets her $$$ worth in a game series.

I keep meaning to pick up DDS:CB and start a dynasty with it, but haven't gotten around to it yet, probably because I'm a) kind of broke and b) waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting and waiting some more to hear back from grad schools.

I'm torn about what to buy next. Matrix has some games that look promising, but they either seem to be in need of a few patches (Empire in Arms, the new Frank Hunter World War I Game) or are months away from release (Bombing the Reich, World in Flames). Or maybe I should get a flight sim from Third Wire: Wings over Vietnam and Wings over Israel look interesting, as does their WW I flight sim.

Should be able to play some more games starting this weekend. I'll probably pick up BM09. I still have the Witcher to play, and Galactic Civ II as well. I'm just in a sports mood right now, I think.

DDS:CB looks awesome but for some reason can't hold my interest through the first offseason I've been really tempted to pick up the latest FM on PC, and also to consider COD 4 and one of the soccer games on the 360, but haven't sprung for any of them yet.

Mostly, I've just been playing Lost Odyssey and College Hoops 2K8 on the 360. My only PC gaming right now is multiplayer FOF, but my team is so torn up by injuries, I feel like there's not a whole lot I can do at the moment. There are a few other sports sims that I'd like to jump into (restarting my WWSM career, EHM, or DDSCB), but I don't have the motivation right now.

I must admit that I am thisclose to starting a new "career" in Fairway Solitaire, but I'm not sure if that counts!

I don't really play "high commitment" games as much as I used to. Aside from the usual little flash & cell-phone time wasters, this is what I am playing a lot of these days:

n800:
Civilization (the first one) - via DosBox

Web:
FOFC-FBCB
Music Maven (It's really just mindless updating at this point. I really should stop, but I can't)

No console for me, so these games all for the PC:

* OOTP 2007 - 4th year expansion team, finally starting to develop a real squad. It's a good time between watching the babies grow up and watching them demand multi-zillion dollar contracts.

* Puzzle Quest - Promising career as a warrior. My character is making easy work of the opposition, but the game is still fun, so I keep playing.

* The Racing Breed - 3rd year stable. Making money hand over fist with the claiming game, not so lucky at buying yearlings (though one of them won a low-level MCL in his 11th race - yay me!)

Eventually I'll give Up And Down The River a try. No promises, but I do owe Jim at least a quick look.
