After a stint with Aion late in 2009 - to which Im still subscribed because I cant remember my account password to cancel it - I played COD4MW2 throughout the Christmas break, then moved back to playing EVE Online. I've joined a new Corporation who are quite large and part of a major Alliance. They also have friendly relations with some major movers in the game so security is pretty good and theres loads of things going on. The Corp leader also shares the same sense of humour as I do and overall I'm enjoying EVE quite a lot. How long this will last is unknown as I tend to get bored easy.

I made it to level 25 last weekend. This was probably only made possible by my having the week off as a holiday (plus I have 7 days left to take before x-mas sometime) and despite the "lets go out for the day" and "can you fit a new carpet in the porch" events I managed to play a fair bit of Aion.

Skimming through a couple of games magazines in my personal "library" while sitting on the crapper, I saw previews of the following MMO's which I think will spark my interest in the future. Not got any real ideas when they're coming out, but I'm going to try to keep an eye on them:
