Let's just all assume the first answer is SK :)

What are you playing right now? I just finished Portal 2, it was fun but got a little repetitive for me.

I picked up Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes for XBLA and it's fantastic. If you dig competitive puzzlers, this one is for you.

I also continue to play a little Nightmare of Druaga when I can. It's a pretty obscure rogue-like with a really interesting turn order feature where monsters are color coded according to their speed. SK takes a great deal of inspiration from rogue-likes, so I never turn one down as there might be an interesting nugget in there worth exploring.

I liked M&M:CoH before it was

I liked M&M:CoH before it was popular. So HA!

No, seriously. It's got just the right amount of puzzle RPG and random elements in the mix (compared to, say, Puzzle Quest which is ALL RANDOM, ALL THE TME).

The other game besides SK I play right now is Alteil. As far as deck building card games go, it's pretty much the best I ever played.

Yeah, I really enjoyed MM:CoH

Yeah, I really enjoyed MM:CoH on DS, but I was the only one I knew that had it, so I never had a chance of going head to head against someone until the XBLA version. Definitely a better experience!

Playing Minecraft with my brother. A teeny little server dedicated world that's just for my siblings and I. Edit: My brother just tricked me into detonating a TNT in a room where he secretly filled the walls with explosive. >.>

Also, I just picked up an copy of Jet Set Radio: Future. I love that game.

I jump around a bunch of old favorites, occasionally adding a new thing....

Minecraft, Warcraft 3, Oblivion, Demon's Souls, Plants vs. Zombies, and Mushroom Wars are all constant favorites. Puzzle Pirates has been on-again-off-again over the last few years. The most recent addition to my favorites (before SK) was Atelier Rorona. Oh, and you, in the back, who just started snickering? Shaddap.

Off the screen, I play tabletop RPGs. And write them, for amusement. Players of SK that are so-inclined and curious might appreciate the feel of this one. Or might not.

Nothing really apart from Spiral Knights.

I'm translating a shmup engine I made in Smalltalk last month for college, into Java, for college, if that counts.

D2 EHCL still play ten+ years

D2 EHCL still play ten+ years though I usually get bored within a month or two of a new ladder which is right about now.
Pangya entered my fifth year of this game.

Besides that and this game not much else I'm actually looking for another casual game to fill the gap since I don't get much play time out of this one, was thinking about buying Terraria unless there's some decent->good free game out there I haven't played/heard of yet.

I picked up FF Tactics

I picked up FF Tactics Advance again (thank the gods and their grandmother for emulator speed-up), wanting to finish it before I move onto FFT2.
Also slowly moving through ASMT.

Otherwise, nothing much aside from SK, just waiting on releases like PSO2 and updates.

Aside From SK...?

Occasionally I can be seen dicking around on Pokemon Online, cause the UU tier for B/W is just so rediculous it can't not be played. I also play the drawing game. Typically for fanart of Spiral Knights. I also play piano.
Spiral Knights is kinda what I do for most of my time now.

Battlefield 1942/Mods/exp(Secret weapons, vietnam, desert combat, road to rome)
TEQ(text based country builder/wargame)

-Single player
World in Conflict
Black and white 2
Alpha centauri/Civ 3 and 4
Railroad Tycoon 3
and a ton of old Nes/Sega master system roms. afew old gameboy roms aswell.

-Few old platform games series i still like to play
Armoured Core
Ace Combat
Ghost Recon
NFS

Hmmm...

Currently replaying some old favorites from the SNES:
Chrono Trigger
Rock'N Roll Racing
Secret of Mana
Super Mario World

Also messing around in the Beta for Space, Pirates, and Zombies. Rather extraordinarily grindy, but still fairly fun. Looking forward to what all they do with that (just like SK!)

And otherwise still playing Left 4 Dead 2 when friends bug me for a 4th in vs games.

Handheld: Pokemon Platinum -

Handheld: Pokemon Platinum - I want to round out my 'Dex before I switch over to Black and White.

Console: Final Fantasy 12 and Assassin's Creed 2 - When I have a bit more time on my hands, I like to play either one of these two. In my last FF12 game there were blanks in some of my hunts, and I missed the Zodiac Spear, so I'm working on getting those right now. As for AC2, I'm trying to perfect all the missions, as well as polishing up my kill style. My cousin and I are in a personal competition of sorts involving who can develop the most flamboyant kill style while still not getting caught. Once we're done with that, we'll likely move on to Brotherhood and start all over again.

I'm stalled in the middle of L.A. Noire. I want to get to the end of it, but...without having to spend the time playing through.

I play Dragon Age Legends every day for about 15 minutes. (HUSH, you. I don't want to hear it.)

That's about it, although I am an enormous BioWare nerd, so whenever they put something out, you might as well assume I am falling all over myself in a very undignified manner to play it.

Quake Live

If i'm outta energy on Sk then this is my temporary game. its a free browser game that is very competitive. Fast paced action. I recommend it to everyone to try out.

http://www.quakelive.com/

(note : it may be hard to play up to everybody's skill when you start, but the game will soon find your skill level and lets you be more comfortable.)

Quake Live is awesome, but unfortunately I'm not that good and my lowest ping is pretty atrocious anyway (it's much less than SK, but unlike SK you really need a good ping to play properly, or so it feels to me). Other than that I end up playing piano or reading books and stuff.

Right now im downloading

Right now im downloading Forsaken World because i havent really played these big games and FW seems pretty good according to the internet. I downloaded a DS emulator and kingdom hearts re:coded so i can play something while downloading FW. I was playing puzzle pirates before i played SK but i quit because it's so damn reliant on other players. You cant get a proper payday unless there's at least 600 people online. I wish OOO only put a couple servers on pp because of this. Right now i'm looking for other games to play because im really active atm and there's pretty much nothing worth doing at SK when my mist is all used up. I really hope you guys at OOO make something rewarding to do that doesn't require ce or maybe even ust very little ce. SK really needs something players could do without energy while still being rewarding. Lets face it, lockdown isn't rewarding.

Edit: Ugh i just found out the rom was corrupt. That's like the fifth one ive downloaded. >.> oh well, 20 hours left till I can play forsaken worlds.

My addiction to sonic games aside. When I don't have SK eating my MMO time ever since I stopped playing ragnarok online, I've been playing Final Fantasy XIV, it's been getting a lot of good updates over the past months, feels just like spiral knights! (what, no). I got my steam library full of indie games as well. Chantelise, Super Meat Boy and Gundemonium series currently focusing on, and Mirror's Edge.

Playing Deus Ex again, found out you can lug Walton Simons's body (or anyone else's) through the levels. I finally realised what was in those chocolate bars. Why didn't I notice before!?

Plays PSO:BB? Wow, I didn't think anyone on this forum would play that. I love that game.

I'm currently playing Jamestown and Transformers: War for Cybertron on the PC. Of course Spiral Knights (nearly 200 hours!). :)

On home consoles, I play Pokemon Black and Pearl, Metroid Prime 3, Super Mario Galaxy/Sunshine. Plus the occasional The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.

Yeeeah, I'm a Nintendo fan.
