WRUP: Hearthstone and our secret shame
Our bonus question this week was going to be about our dark, secret gaming habits. That was the plan. And then Blizzard went and released this mindblowingly awesome sounding game... so the bonus question changed. So when you're reading this, we're telling you both our guilty pleasure of gaming... and our excite about Hearthstone.
Anne Stickney (@Shadesogrey) This weekend is going to be spent working on projects around the house and getting some writing done. As for Hearthstone, it looks pretty neat! I think I may end up jumping in the beta just to play around with it and see how it works.

Elizabeth Wachowski (@leeatwaterlives) Shockingly, I am not working this weekend! In between playing with the baby, I'm going to mess around with emptying my quest log in Skyrim and working towards exalted with Order of the Cloud Serpent on my pally.
I have little interest in HearthStone right now. Maybe when I find out more details.
Joe Perez (@lodurzj) just got a new airbrush so going to be playing with that a little bit. If I have time I'll be running the LFR on my alt. Otherwise, low key weekend ahead of me.
as far as Hearthstone, I think it will do well and I think people will enjoy it. It's just not something up my alley of interest. Though that interface looks really slick.
Kristin Marshall (@kristin) I'll be working outside for a little while this weekend, if the weather holds up. Otherwise, I'll get some writing done, catch up on missed TV, and level an alt. Hearthstone looks neat! I'm looking forward to trying it out.
Matt Walsh (@Rhidach) I think I'm going to take my new mage alt for a spin and level him a little. I really need to hit Skyward Sword up more, I've been slacking with that.
Bonus: I haven't played a CCG since the Star Wars CCG, back in middle school, so I'm not sure this is really up my alley. Looks pretty cool though.
Michael Gray (@writegray) I'm... LARPing this weekend. Vampire. I'm so sorry. Bonus: Hearthstone will likely eat my entire wallet. I've not been this excited for a long time.
Sarah Pine HA. Little do you know, Gray, but I actually spent the better part of a year RUNNING a Vampire: The Requiem LARP. As in being a Storyteller. I learned a lot about games! And about how much I hate people. Um. This weekend? This weekend is pretty busy for me so I'm not sure. Might hop on WoW, though I'm feeling like starting another Bastion game given the announcement from Supergiant of their new title (which looks enticing).
Hearthstone looks adorable. I'll definitely give it a shot. I mean I don't think it'll be revolutionary or anything, but fun? Probably! And that's all I really want in a game.
The weekend is the perfect time to kick back, relax and enjoy some game time. Are you an achievement junkie? Can't get enough raiding? Rolling a new alt? Considering taking the leap into roleplaying? Whatever your favorite way to play World of Warcraft, let us know in the comments what you're playing this weekend!
