Is it the weekend already? Wait...did I actually have to work this week? Isn't it still vacation? uhoh. Anyway...VIDEO GAMES! It's the start of the new year and just a few weeks before the big titles of 2013 start to trickle out. Time to finish off the last of our bucket lists and gear up for some new experiences. Here's what we're playing.

What are you playing? Sound off in the comments below.

Nick Henderson: Now that I have finished Mark of the Ninja, I will probably spend my weekend recording footage for our end of the year content. This means playing a bunch of games I have already played! If I can find time, I may try to jump back into a game that I started in 2012 but never finished... Maybe Dust or Lollipop Chainsaw?
Nolan Hedstrom: Asura's Wrath has caught my attention and I will try to finish that up this weekend. I got Scribblenauts Unlimited on a sale and it turns out the game is fantastic! I've been having a lot of fun solving puzzles and gettin' me some starites. Shamefully I have become readdicted to Spelunky and will probably end up playing that a bit.
Bob Webb: This weekend I'll be continuing my 100% achievement completion of Dark Souls (I'm more than halfway now). I doubt I'll do that all weekend so I'll be taking breaks and bro-ing it up in CALLADOOOTY BLOPS DOS. The love between Carlos and myself is too great and our bromance will be shared with the world.
As as side note, I think we'll be trying to set up a time to broadcast this during the weekend. Maybe a multiplayer night?
Chris Davis: It’s looking to be a busy weekend for me but I’ve always got a bit of time to spend on games.  Battlefield 3 is calling to me as per usual (double XP weekend, baby!) but Mass Effect 3 still holds that faint, sexy allure I’ve come to love.  I’ve also got a strange urge to revisit DayZ, especially given its broad expansion to new maps and tighter user control.  I’ve also purchased a ton of games on Steam this past week so I may check those out as well.
Joseph Christ: I'm going to try...really try not to fall into the PlanetSide 2 hole this weekend. In fact, I already have some older games lined up. Final Fantasy XII is one I've only just barely gotten into so I'll probably give that a shot again. Also just purchased the original Tenchu for the PS1 so that should be getting some playtime as well. Of course, I'll allow myself a taste, just a drizzle, of that sweet Planetside 2 nectar. I do have around 550 certs to use up afterall. 
Jeffrey Demelo: The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings; lots and lots of that superb game this weekend. I'll take a break from Geralt with some Forza; which I recently began tossing into my daily gaming-routine, for a half-hour at a time. My "gear-head" moments come in spurts. Girls Like Robots is what Im playing when someone has "dibs" on the living room TV, when I'm in the bathroom, or when just feeling like blowing time on my iPad. 
Carlos The Stout: This is downright embarrassing but despite having a giant backlog I've been wanting to chip at since forever I will most likely spend the weekend playing Black Ops 2 :(

I have really been wanting to play some moody first person puzzlers like Amnesia or Penumbra, and I picked up Anna for cheap, so I could also do that.

Wait......BALLER BEATS supercedes all!

AAAHHHHHH. 
Brad Simons: Probably nothing. All games suck. I tried to get Tomb Raider working on PC and then an emulator, but the good game gods are assholes. If you have useful info that can help, please tweet me. If not, then maybe I'll play another game that dares to be different. There isn't many left. So prepare to be surprised.

    Probably Saints Row 3, I picked it up on the Steam sale and I've been having some fun with it. I'm really trying to fight to urge to buy Sleeping Dogs on Steam, but I'll probably cave, so I may be trying that out as well

    Since I'm stuck overseas with a laptop that can't really handle any new games I went into my bucket list and started the hitman series which is (excluding the original) fantastic, currently on my third play through of blood money after that I will probably start with the thief series.

    When did Carlos join the 3rd Street Saints? Should we call him Carlos Gat or Johnny Doof?

    Carlos lookin' P.I.M.P. I am trying my best to not play Borderlands 2, but considering I restarted the game with the Mechromancer class it appears that I have tied my own hands. Happy weekend everyone!

    BLOPS son! Gonna get me some diamond Specials (well probably not because the crossbow is a son-bitch). Also, hopefully finish up Arkham City, but likely mostly BLOPS while I'm marathoning Dexter.

    Oh boy, after spending most of my Christmas money I'm left with a mess of games I'm gonna juggle between. This includes Dark Souls, DmC HD collection + DmC 4, Medievil, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Psychonauts, Silent Hill, and Odin Sphere.

    After getting Final Fantasy 13-2 as one of my gifts on Christmas, I went ahead and finished up 13 (after putting it on hold for... two years?) and moved onto 13-2 this weekend. Also still playing stuff on my new Vita, like P4G. Odd playing them all around the same time.
