Been playing Outrun. I'm pretty sure I've already logged 10+ hours on it. I even woke up two hours earlier then I usually do just to download it on
Wednesday.
Also bought Operation Darkness and Viking Battle for Asgard. Viking is really fun, but so far OD is pretty boring. I found both for $15 each. |

Finally gathered enough cash to buy Gears 2 a couple of weeks ago and I must say, absolutely f***ing lovin it. Finished single-player mode on insane and now
I'm working on horde mode. So far I managed to get to wave 21 on normal by myself. Whether that's considered skillful or not, I have no freaking clue.
I'm starting to get to the point where I might have to team up with someone to get any further, which I'm dreading, having only ever played online multiplayer on any game exactly two times in my life. THEY TOOK OUR JOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUBS!!!!!

Got Rock Band for cheap. (2 for 30 Deal in HMV) Just beginning to play normal now. My little finger does not want to co-operate.
 I find Rock Band plays
nicer than Guitar Hero 3 though.
Outrun Online Arcade. 
Beautiful Katamari. Doing the online achievements.

Bought BioShock from my work on Saturday... so yeah, that should fill my time for the next month or so
I've also been playing FF VI Advance. It is the only SNES FF I haven't played. I've heard lots of people say it is the best, so we will see. . .

There's nothing worse than having a game hyped to be the end all, be all of games and then playing it to find that is not the case. Excellent game of course, just not an enlightening experience. No game is. Just brought Phantasy Star Portable, so about to lie back on the bed, and rock out. |

Just kidding...but ummm, yea hyping games can be a turnoff as ive seen happen with No More Heroes, VOOT, and a few other of my favorites. So heartbreaking when you convince a friend to buy a game and then ask them how they're enjoying said game and they respond with, "Oh well I traded it in, and got so and so." Both heartbreaking and blood escalating to be honest. I was in a KoF swing for the last two weekends and ended yesterday with some good ol' SFIV action. Ahhh...how refreshing. Makes realize how much greater that Fightpad is than the Classic Controller for 2D Fighters. |

Bought Lost Odyssey.
Liking it a lot so far. Gameplay is fun and story seems interesting enough, plus the music is great. Not too far yet, but liking it.

Lost Oddysey is probably my favourite current-gen rpg that I've had the pleasure of playing. The story is simply exquisite, and the '1000 years of dreams' almost bordered on bringing me to tears. The combat system is awesome. Instead of a lot of rpgs that allow you to grind to overcome a difficult boss, grinding in this game is almost impossible. Instead, you really need to focus on strategy and tactics, which made it refreshing. Disc 3 is a non-stop rollercoaster. It is awesome. Only problem I had was Disc 4, in the sense that mine didn't *%!%%!$ work. All that buildup and enjoyment to prepare myself for an epic conclusion, and I couldn't. Had to put it off a few days until I bought a new copy with a working disc 4. Ending was incredibly tight but the momentum was lost. So my advice is to make sure all your discs are working. =(

Yeah, it has been great so far. I just meet Cooke and her lil brother. And yes, I love that whole not be able to grind aspect. I was truly stuck at that
second boss fight, until I finally figured it out and whoop the crap out of that slug/snake thing and its brother that followed.
Its really refreshing to play a good traditional jrpg again since I haven't played any this gen and last being on the ps2. The characters really intrigue me and even though people probably won't like Jansen's character, I find him freaking hilarious at times. |

Playing Shadow the Hedgehog is akin to torture and punishment. If you're playing that shithole of a game, you must have done something wrong

I actually played Shadow the Hedgehog about a month ago. My little cousin was crying for me to play it. She wouldn't shut up, so I played a little bit of
it for her. The first level isn't all that bad so I figured I might actually enjoy the game, but of course after that I remembered how horrible it is. I
think it actually had some good potential; just think of a really fast third person shooter. It sounds pretty cool but turned out pretty bad.
Almost finished with Viking. Really enjoyed it so far. Actually I think its one of the best games I've played recently. An incredibly under rated game. |

I'm sorry, I thought this was the "What'cha playin'" thread, not the "Let's critique each others taste in video games"
thread. Keep the Shadow bashing in South Island where it belongs.

Excuse the %@@$ out of me, I happen to like the game. I now have 64 'A' Ranks. Only 7 left for expert mode. No, I don't plan on getting all 326
library entries.

Played some more Rock Band at my mate's house yesterday, where we fought over the microphone a bit, then made up words instead of singing the actual
lyrics. Such as Creep becoming a sad tale of a man who cannot afford jelly beans. I also sucked at drums.
I can't play my own copy of rock band though. My drums have become faulty :( In the process of returning it for replacement. HMV.com you are so awkward! |

Well I just found a copy of Yoshi's Island (Super Mario World 2 for those not in the know) in a thrift store so I guess I have a new game to play, once I
beat Super Metroid with everything collected. Yes I already beat SMW2 before but it's a fun fun game.
