DayZ

Dayz is just fantastic, only problem now is the cheaters are most annoying.

I have a server - US 1873

Apparently private hive servers are the way to go now to avoid hacking script kiddies

My buddies that i used to play with are raving about a server called 'Born to Lose', i might give it a try with them if i have time

Too much traveling involved and it takes too much time to get anywhere. Unless you have a helicopter but that's very rare and if you play by yourself, chances are, you'll be bored to death. You more or less need a buddy or a squad to play it with. I played for 2 weeks straight but after you completed everything (get every top gear there is) it gets rather stale and all that's left is to hunt other players. Which is even more time consuming.

It's a great game, I was addicted to it for a while, but it just takes way too much time to do anything. Fun if you got 5-6 hours of free time. You can't really do anything in an hour in DayZ. I probably won't be able to play it for a while due to a job and classes starting again.

is Arma 2 available on console or is it PC only?

I saw the news about the possibility of this being developed as a stand alone game.  I think it has real potential, and the possibilities are endless as far as the things they could do.

Yes it is being developed as a stand alone, and the creator has said that he wants to develop the stand alone along side the mod. Which would keep the mod up and running after the release of the stand alone and allow the mod to be a 'test bed' for creative modding that could well be incorporated into version updates of the stand alone, while allowing them to lock down the stand alone and make the hacking a thing of the past. So you would really get the best of both worlds, the stand alone would be playable without having to deal with all the hacking while allowing the mod version to still be used for creation of new designs and further modding which could then be added to the stand alone by the creators with version updates.
