Evening Reading

The presents are under the tree and it's a long haul until Saturday! Definitely looking foward to seeing what I've got coming to me this year and excited about what I've gotten for my fiancee.

I'm also looking forward to playing some games on my backlog from this year over the short break. What will you be playing on your vacation, if anything?

I am re-installing Titan Quest. ALL FIVE CD's! Hard to believe that even as late as 2006 companies were still releasing on CD over DVDs. I have Immortal Throne on DVD. I hope I can make it through the original game again. I am going to check out Titanquest.net for fanpatch and/or mods.

Should I use fanpatch? Mod recommendations? Vanilla?

Help me finish the last action rpg before Diablo 3!!!
