What are you playing right now?

[Denmark]

playing Pokemon Sapphire. In recent years I've played Pokemon "the wrong way" as in pretty much just using one Pokemon for battling and only catching others as needed as HM slaves. but in preparation for X&Y which I am super excited for and want to play the right way, I've actually been like, training a TEAM. I just beat the Weather Institute this morning and my current traveling team consists of (I can't remember the levels exactly so these are guesses):

HerdULike, Marshtomp (F), Lv. 32
Denmark, Aron (M), Lv. 27 or 28
Sam, Kirlia (F), Lv. 28 (SASSY nature )
Phil, Ninjask (M), Lv. 26
Zig, Zigzagoon (M), Lv. 3, HM Slave (Cut, Rock Smash. best early game HM Slave in gen 3)

I'm not sure why I named my Nincada/Ninjask Phil. Other EoFFers are also Pokemon but they're all BOXED. I have a couple birds for Fly and a Tentacool for the non-useful Water HMs (Waterfall and Dive) but I don't think my battle team is gonna change all that much from the 4 I'm currently using. And I will catch but not battle with Kyogre when the time comes.

im pretty much against HM slaves :P
instead i make sure that i have different types of pokemon, each capable of 1 of those HM's (except for flash!) that way all pokemon are still usefull, and so are the HM moves you teach them.
i am not a collector at all, i only catch the 5 pokemon that i need to get through the poke-league (+ the starter) that way you wont waste precious battle-exp on pokemon that will eventually end up in the box anyway

i pretty much have my Pokemon team already set up in my mind before i start the game.

but the only good HM move is Surf

Attack-type Water Pokemon should learn Waterfall instead of Surf. Come on, man.

[Nicolas]

srsly. Waterfall and Surf are the only useful ones. Though, I'd recommend using an HM proficient Pokemon as a sixth one until the Elite Four. Usually saves room for far better moves. Though in the later games you can finally remove HM moves at the Move Deleter's house.

but the only good HM move is Surf

Fly, Cut and Strenght are also usefull. with Surf those are all the hm's i have taught pokemon. i have not been in need of any of the others

Just beat Deus Ex: Human Revolution. I don't know what everyone was upset about with the ending!!! Very awesome game... I'd like to play the original one day if there's a decent playable version of it.

The problem people have with the ending is that it's a game about choice, but all that choice is rendered meaningless and irrelevant. Because you literally have a multiple choice, single button ending selection.

The original is very playable. I dumped 60 hours into it just a couple of months ago.

As for me, currently playing: EU4, Monaco and Awesomenauts. The latter has the rare distinction of being a MOBA-inspired game that I actually enjoy playing.

Seconded.

We shall see! Once I get through Skyrim, the Witcher 2, Fallout, hundreds of hours more of dota 2 and whatever other pc games jump in the way before then.

I'm starting some good games this weekend! What's peoples weekend rotations looking like?

[Aulayna]

Final Fantasy XIV is my weekend ;p

Until then I'll be playing a lot of LoL and Burnout Paradise

[Pike]

Skyrim, the Witcher 2, Fallout

Are you talking the original Fallout? Cause that game is great.

Original Deus Ex is better than all of those though imo

What's peoples weekend rotations looking like?

EU4, EU4, EU4.

Started playing the first Super Robot Taisen Original Generation on the GBA. I went with Kyosuke cause he looks like Gene from Outlaw Star.

[Bolivar]

Skyrim! So far it's everything I'd hoped it would be... same tight dungeon design from Oblivion, and the way they flesh out the quests into actual stories and adventures is kinda crazy. I went to the college of Whiterun to study magic and so far this sequence is so much more than what you normally expect from a sidequest.
