So What Are YOU Playing?

[Charismatic]

Mass Effect 2, like a boss.

[Arnwulf]

Yeah my friend at gamestop keeps me in the loop with this shit, going to be wednesday when they get it in, the game isnt street dated. Unless for some odd reason that gamestop is an oddity.

Most likely just an idiot that didn't know what he was talking about. I won't even bother going there until Weds. then. Either way, can't wait to get my hands on WKC, not expecting much, but it should be entertaining at the very least. I'm a little starved for a pseudo-traditional RPG on my platforms right now.

[JimBob]

Since I'm currently broke, going through my old games and re-discovering the joys of a PS2, and even more old-school, a Sega Saturn. Fired up Breath of Fire DQ and Shining Force 3 and trying to remember what the hell I was doing all those years ago.

[Caiyuo]

Playing Portrait of Ruin, hating "The Nest" and these goddamn quests because I'm obsessing over finishing them all as well as starting up Phantasy Star [something]..whatever it is on NDS. I went with the "human" class to start with since the last Phantasy Star I played was IV, but is there really much of a learning curve for the elfs to be considered "advanced"? In fairness, BG has kind of skewed the meaning for me.

Also hating the camera.

[Eticket]

Played ODST for about 30 minutes. It's on the way back to GF.

Got into Marvel UA2 but I'll probably send it back this weekend.

Got back into NCAA Football 10 on the 360.

Still working on the last couple of trophies for Dragon Age.

On the DS I'm still trying to farm Red Dragons in FFIV.

Bioshock 2 next week.

[Kaisha]

Somehow spent 12 hours playing Blazblue online the other day, then went to bed right after. ;/

Been spending waaaay too much time in it lately, hell, playing it right now. Something clicked last week and I've just not been able to put it down, even though I've already done my trophy whoring in it a month ago.

Eagerly awaiting the Unlimited characters update. Taokaka (my main) is going to be crazy fun to play.

[Oravis]

Think you can beat my ragna yet? I haven't touched bb in at least a month

[Raen Ryong]

Also going through Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon at work, but some of these stages can get cheap.

Does the game ever get challenging? I normally love Fire Emblem but I stopped going through this one at like Chapter 10 or so since the maps were disproportionately huge and there was no challenge involved at all. Storyline/characters severely lacking too...

[Caiyuo]

I've heard from fans of Fire Emblem not to bother with anything other than "Fire Emblem" on the GBA so I never gave Shadow Dragon a chance. Comments?

[Raen Ryong]

FE9 and 10 on the GC/Wii respectively are both good. Wii one is only good if you don't mind a lot of difficulty, especially in the early parts. I personally really enjoyed it despite the criticism it receives.

[Caiyuo]

9 & 10? Jesus, I thought this was a fairly small-yet-cult following series. I should've mentioned I really can't play anything outside of GBA and NDS games since I'm limited to my flash cart DS and emulatorsss.

[hawkie]

Broken Sword games, probably the best adventure series of all time.

[Arnwulf]

Just started White Knight Chronicles last night and am loving it so far.

[JimBob]

Borrowed Tenchu Z from a friend.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU What is this shit ; ;

On the bright side, started up Suikoden V again, New Game+ go! Ridiculously overpowered characters, and I get to keep Georg this time, damn straight.

Dunno. I've been learning from another Tao player and getting to grips with being an annoying bitch who whittles your health down one BnB at a time, but I'm still not the greatest of keeping my distance from attacks.

Ragna I just hate in general since half his attacks cover his whole front, meaning I can't switch up sides easily and smack you from behind. That and his usual Inferno Divider combo takes half my fucking health down in one go.

[Tobi]

White Knight Chronicles like alot of others.

[Yuri-G]

FE7 is generally agreed upon as the best unless you're a hardcore FE fan, in which case FE4 or Thracia 776 are generally the favorites, both JP-only SNES games that have been (poorly) translated. FE8, also for GBA, is pretty lame but worth a try if you're emulating. FE6, which is JP-only but has a very good patch, is fun but difficult as hell, much harder than 7.

Shadow Dragon I haven't played through, and thanks to the asshole who kept my DS instead of turning it into the lost and found here at work (I left it in the bathroom), I won't know for a while. Not that I'm fucking pissed off and bitter as hell about it. But I do remember it having a ton of different difficulty levels, Hard Mode alone has five different tiers you can select from. So you should be able to find something to match you if you want to give it a try. I'd recommend normal mode unless you're a FE veteran or play a lot of SRPGs, though.

[Hitoshura]

GameFly finally sent me Uncharted 2.

[Oravis]

Was trying to finish up black sigil but after running through a dungeon for over 2 hours it randomly froze on me in a fight.... and since it rarely has any savepoints at all I doubt I'm gonna risk this again. Time to start on Sands of Destruction.

[Julian]

Just recruited Chisato :3

Claude Opera Bowman Chisato super-team go!
