Community thread... what are the things you do to 'hold out' until you have your precious fix?
Numeric list format, one thing per line...
1: Breaking the F5 key on Dev Tracker.

There you go. This game was so addictive I had to quit it cold turkey a couple of weeks ago.

DayZ is in Alpha, so it is constantly changing. It's almost like a completely new game every week or so.

Crusader Kings II. Also, the Endless Space pre-order beta just patched a fix that finally allows me to change the resolution off default properly, so I may dive into that tonight.
If I get really ambitious, the Deus Ex: HR bug might bite me again.
Finally, if beta takes its sweet-ass time, and the developers of some other stuff hit their projected schedules, I might end up playing The Banner Saga and some 6th edition Warhammer 40k & Mobile Frame Zero on the tabletop before beta release, too.

Since we are at what is most likely the end of PS1's lifetime, I've decided to give the original Auraxis the good sending off that she deserves. TR pop has been very low due to twitch.tv streams promoting VS and NC lately though.

I bought Krater and the Drox Operative beta just to tide me over until I get in to PS2 beta. I was a little disappointed by Krater, but Drox looks hella fun and I plan on really exploring it this weekend.
And ya, work. I'm trying to get a lot done before PS2 hits so I can get away with doing less :)

Wow thank you for sharing that. Looks amazing, have been watching a few videos, it's like the perfect zombie survival game. But fffffffff it's so hard to justify $30 on a 3yr old game to play a free mod. =\

Watch movies! Clerks is on :D
Someone give me more ideas/games while waiting, zzz time is going so slow.
edit: Man I wish I could justify buying ARMA xD but I doubt I'd play Day Z after PS2 comes out.

Wait, do people still play that? Holy shit, nostalgia. I remember wasting many days of my life on invasion/racetrack servers.
-In fact, I'm gonna reinstall that right now.

Yeah, those don't work. Friends and Lan do work however.
Edit: I also for got to add Torchlight 2 to the list.
In my honest opinion, its better than D3.
D3 just did not live up to expectations.
