WSAD

Well, that was the last 24 years. Its now may of 2009. I have a new job and things are going well. I currently play Age of Conan, with a small amount of time in GRAW2 , L4D and Team fortress. I rarely play Entropia or Rappelz. We are currently evaluating what direction we want to go in AOC guild wise so I am also exploring all the new stuff coming out.
The gaming world keeps on putting out some great product. It also churns out it's share of junk.
I have a few rules I like to adhere to when it comes to games;

1. Don’t buy at release if possible. It will be cheaper in 2 months.
2. Demo. If it does not have a trial or demo, ill wait till it hits the bargain bin.
3. Read the reviews, from everywhere.

I find Steam to be a great source for checking out new games, its easy to install demos and they have a huge catalog to choose from, including mods and indie games.
No company embraces mods and indies like Valve. I also watch Gamespot and read PCGammer and Maximum PC. Lately my interest has gone toward the indie games. My sons are 5 and 7 now and like to play on the computer, mostly reader rabbit and noggin games, but I'm finding quite a few free demos that are appropriate for their age as well.
For now, that’s what I want to focus on. A quick glimpse at some great free software all gamers should try, and the new things out on the horizon…
