I have a new telly, it's nowt fancy but games do look much nicer on it. I'll try and get some GTA in tomorrow, for now it's some sesame street game for my kid.

Got it on steam a while back but not got round to firing it up.

So this looks like it was fun;

I am tempted to give EVE another go. But my god the learning curve is horrendous.

I tried it. It indeed takes ages to get some understanding of the whole thing. It's not a game really. If I didn't have a life to waste I would definitely be playing it, but it just consumes too much time imo.
However some people say otherwise, it may take a long time before it gets interesting. Quote from a friend fom my Diablo II HC community:
I mean - the PVE side, I find it boring. Still - need to get isk to buy ships to start PVP, I fount out that the easiest way, with minimum time is: first some afk mining with a Retriever,(people despise that, but I'm, not interested in serious mining, manufacturing, planetary interaction - that's something like some economy game) and after that, when you have something like 50 million - station trading, buy low, sell high, takes 10 minutes a day, the more money you have the more you make. You can also pay for subscription with the in-game currency. Apart from that - there are the skills needed, but they train themselves.
Some interesting links, I like how free EVE is regarding player interaction:

It's not so fun - yet. I play very casual, I trained some ship skills, - that took 3 weeks, now I'm training other skills to be able to fight. 2 more weeks of doing nothing I think. The skills train themselves in real time, even when logged off. Really, there is nothing do do, right now I'm training a skill that takes 4 days, I login, see I have 3 days left, logout.Yes, I am sure that entering a player corp that owns player structures and space - will make the game a lot more fun, but a lot more time demanding, I myself don't have so much time, and don't want that. I heard about players of big corps that have to answer any call - and login in case they are needed to fight.
Want to be able to login, fight a little, logout, just as I did in D2. Not doing boring missions, (something like Baal runs :) ), and not getting involved in fleets, where I can't just exit when I want (something like the raids in Wow)Still, sorry if that's the case, delete this thread, forget about eve - not so interesting for at least a 1-2 month :)

D3 was a utter disappointment for me. I'd enjoyed the series for years and years since D1. D3 was almost like a cash fest.
Maybe things will improve with the expansion who knows? They've taken the auction house and worked out a few of the niggles.
Path of exile is good fun. Hopefully see some of you guys on there. We can get a guild going or something?
