I was just curious what else, if anything, you guys play.

Personally other than a random game every now and then I've stuck with a certain game for 8 or so years called SW Jedi Knight Academy (I've been playing the JK series since Dark Forces 2). If no one knows what that is it's pretty much a melee saber combat game (guns are optional as well as force powers but I play no force / no guns). Here's a video I've got for those curious:

Nothing impressive on my part there I was just testing video capture on Xfire, it's not even on a competitive server. Most people say it looks silly or whatever these days but I really enjoy the game play. For those who are aware of the game I play in the Master clan participating in base duel/tffa under the name "rise".

I'm also a long time Fallout player, I played the first Fallout when I was 7 (kind of an odd age to start banging hookers). FO2 being my favorite, I also played FOT:BOS which I actually enjoyed unlike most people. FO3 was alright but the engine it was on kind of ruined it for me (and bloody mess never made every appendage explode when shot by a pistol, however punching a hole in someone is viable). I usually play all of those games twice a year usually seeing how effective I can be with an odd skill set (like melee weapons in FO 1/2)

Tricknasty and I spent a looong time playing JKII. IMO it was the best SW game ever made. I think trick log's a few games here and there.
What? no force pull, kick, DFA in the video? not even a spin backslash? ;)

I play competitive base NF so it's mostly poking/wiggle/air hits. If anyone does a kata or DFA they're as good as dead except for some rare situations.

JK2 was a great game but after going back and forth for a while between JKA and JK2 I prefer the melee combat of JKA more. There's a lot of competitive force players still in JKA and it's pretty cool with splats (forcing someone to take fall damage with force grip) and all that jazz. I can't get into it, though.

Here's a video of someone in base tffa/duel:

The video actualy starts at 2:20

We used to have a server for movie battles mod in that game. We were hooked but haven't played it in years now. Could possibly see us messing around with that again.
