So What Are YOU Playing?

[darkepyon]

Lately I've been playing lots of Street Fighter IV in addition to the old Megaman games.

[Atreides]

it's rare that I pick up new releases. i generally stick to one game at at time and don't spend much more than an hour playing on any given day.

the up-side? shit's cheaper

waiting to buy games is almost always a good idea unless its something you can't live without. I finally got around to ordering a used copy of the Saboteur for like 25 bucks lol

Everyone in BG Platinum has infamous on their platinum list. So if you dont have any plat trophies yet, infamous can be your first :D

[Kaisha]

any general advice before starting up infamous?

Only thing I can really say is that you should actively go after blast shards scattered across the map. They'll appear as blue dots on your radar when you click your left-stick. Every 25 or so you collect you get an additional health bar.

Waste of money.

In the past Ive been bad about buying games as they release, and find it hard to wait. This year Im kicking that trend, but I'll have a shit ton of games to pickup this november, during sales events, I already have a list of 30-40 games I need to scoop up.

[Atreides]

Oh well, it's used so I can just return it within a week lol.

Gamedays sale starts soon too, they usually have a bunch of crap but there's always some decent stuff in the mix. I think last year was PSP FFTactics for $15, FF1 and FF2 for 10 bucks each, among other things.

Finished trophies on Heavy Rain. Killing time with some misc games until FF13.

I just finished Tales of Symphonia: DotNW. It wasn't that great... I put it on Hard to make it more enjoyable, but that didn't do much lol. Then again, it probably didn't help that I started playing this right after beating Tales of Graces, which is now my favorite Tales. Meh, it was mostly to kill time till I got FFXIII(tonight!) anyways.

[Charismatic]

No, Dawn of the New World is just overall not so good.

[Elesirdur]

Just Cause 2 demo on PC. Looks very nice (holy draw distance Batman!), though the controls are kind of sluggish. Probably optimized for consoles, mind. It's an absolute blast though. Feels much tighter and just generally more "fun" than Mercenaries 2. It's on Steam for download and I'm sure it's on XBL and PSN too.

FF XIII!

[Corrderio]

Got to the 2nd castle in SotN... all I can say is that place makes me dizzy.

[Dense]

Finished trophies on Heavy Rain. Killing time with some misc games until FF13.

Exact same for me.

Killing time with Little Big Planet, now. I wish that Heavy Rain had a bit more content. Still, it has to be up there with the best games I've played. I enjoyed it so much...

I just lost 6 hours yesterday playing Skate 2 online......

Didn't expect to get as much mileage as I did when I picked it up a couple weeks ago for $19. Almost tempted to work for the Platinum trophy for it now even though it'll mean a good 15-20 hours of grinding experience online.

Also been playing Brutal Legend on the side since I nabbed it recently for $19 as well (got to love bargain bins this generation), and loving it, aside from the lack of minimap.

[Beckwin]

I've gotten to spend a little time with Infamous, and I'm quite enjoying it so far. I kind of like that you aren't so powerful like in Prototype, and the world feels a little more personable. Incorporating cover add some nice gameplay variety. So far I'm doing the good route.

It's also good I'm not playing Prototype and Infamous back to back, because damn these games are really similar. Were there ever any lawsuits? lol

[Atreides]

no, because no one bought Prototype lol

[Kyo]

no, because no one bought Prototype lol

Actually prototype sold pretty well, its worth 20 bucks.

[Jefe]

Valkyrie Profile 2.

Games in queue:

• Sigma 2
• Bayonetta
• Heavy Rain

My PS3's laser craped, so instead of spending $200 bucks to have Sony fix it, I'm fixing it myself. Now, if only these fucking lasers actually worked. So far I've gotten 2 DoA. The worst is that they stopped making those lasers. Everything out there is refurbished.

[ArchDizzle]

Recently beat AC2 and the DLC as well as Heavy Rain. 95% trophies on AC2 and would like to think I will go back soon and platinum it but it's unlikely I will have the time.

Picked up FFXIII last night as well Bad Company 2, will be playing XIII for the next few weeks.

[Yuri-G]

Playing FFXIII, of course.

Also playing Oblivion GOTY when I'm in the mood for something more relaxing. I've never played a sandbox game or a WRPG before, so it's 15+ hours in and I'm still wrapping my head around the idea that I can just pick a direction and start walking and I'll find something interesting before long. I absolutely love how the gameplay can be as focused or unfocused as you want.

Playing Marvel vs. Capcom 2 when I'm not in the mood for an RPG. Obviously a blast. I'm currently maining SonSon and Jin and auditioning (trying out in practice mode) characters for the third slot. I might switch out Jin but I will always love SonSon, she might not be the best but she's so fun to mess around with. Great character for mindgames.
