So What Are YOU Playing?

[Bluefrostie]

I just finished Twilight Princess. I am going to start Wind Waker over the holiday weekend. I hope the gameplay is better than the graphics.

[Atreides]

Beat Shadow Complex, then got 100% on Lego Indiana Jones, now working on Lego Batman. Will probably play StarTropics/Crystalis for NES next, then maybe Symphony of the Night or Super Metroid, then finally on to a nice meaty RPG of some sort.

Seriously I cannot wait for Lego Harry Potter, the lego games are fkn great.

edit: this month is CRAZY for games. For DS alone there's Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Scriblenauts, and my personal favorite Nostalgia. I don't think I'll pick up Persona 1 for PSP at full price, and as much as I love the games I refuse to pay $49.99 for Katamari Forever for ps3. Namco needs to stop charging 10 bucks more every time one of those games comes out.

[Yuri-G]

oh, scribblenauts is coming out? I need to pick that one up, the hype machine got to me and it sounds fascinating. never heard of nostalgia but it looks alright too.

and don't forget mario & luigi!

don't worry, it is.

I've convinced myself that Nostalgia is the closest thing I'll ever get to a Skies of Arcadia sequel. I haven't played Avalon Code, but I like everything else Matrix has worked on.

Beat Gin's path on Devil Survivor, don't really care to do a NG+ yet.

Getting my PS3 in exactly a week (ish) from now, idk what to play until then

That WET demo is hot

/late but i kinda second this. My gf was crossing her arms the whole time i played but if this game gets polished before the real release it'd be really cool. Going SSJ and mowing people down with another sword and uzis that spawned out of nowhere was hot as hell

[Effluo]

Late to the game, but I just got L4D. Been playing single player to get the hang of it.. Amazing amounts of awesome. Wish I had gotten it earlier.

[Tekoa]

Dissidia
Monster Hunter Freedom: Unite
WoW?

[Yuri-G]

yesssssssssss FINALLY got Dracula X: Rondo of Blood working on my PC, after about a week's worth of downloading bad roms and trying to find a (free) working emulator. I had it years ago and deleted it, no idea why, this game is the shit. never again will it leave my computer. and it's every bit as good as all the hype says.

words cannot convey my excitement. seriously.

Do you have a PSP? Last I checked it had a 3d-remake of the game, which included the original, as well as Symphony of the Night as ingame unlockables.

[Yuri-G]

don't have a PSP but when I finally can justify splurging on one (maybe this Christmas?) that will be the very first game I get, guaranteed. a mobile SotN has been a dream of mine.

Gah, freaking loved Shadow Complex, but only on my first play-through and my only missing item is that fucking drop bridge that stays locked once you hit it. So disappointing. lol

Also really looking forward to the DS action, but haven't heard of Nostalgia!

[Insanecyclone]

Sniper Elite PC

[Arachna]

Batman: AA, sweet game. It feels really satisfying to beat the shit out of people in this game, the only thing that could be better is if he spouted random clips from Christian Bale's rant.

[tebian]

Kingdom Hearts - Chain of Memories the PS2 version, great fun to see it in 3d and not on that tiny screen.

[Yuri-G]

playing valkyrie profile 2: silmeria. story is so-so but the presentation is top-notch and the gameplay is intensely involving. it's the rare RPG that's so fun to play I actually like to grind.

I felt the same way. I was really surprised at how well the graphics are for PS2. If it was running at a higher resolution, it would look fantastic. And I really loved the battle system, which made grinding to collect monster drops not feel like a chore at all.

Once you finish the game, go through and do the Seraphic Gate. It's incredibly fun, though I had to find some Youtube videos for some of the crystal puzzles. They're insane. I have no idea how people found that shit out.

I'm not playing a whole lot right now. I've been thinking of checking out Arkham Asylum, but I have PTSD from the old Batman/Superman games. I'm too afraid, despite it's good reviews.

My friends have been telling me how badass Arkham Asylum is for the past few days. I think the only complaint anyone had was that it's kind of short. The guy that said that is a pretty hardcore gamer that likes to speed through games, so I don't know how true that is. When in doubt, just rent it and give it a try, it's not 1998 anymore.

As for me, I picked up Diablo 2 again and still working on my Daggermancer. I love how everyone thinks I'm useless compared to their AoE pwn builds, but I'm usually the last one standing at the end of a huge boss fight with free dibs on whatever drops. Not to mention I'm secretly keeping everyone alive with Life Tap, but whatever, I'll stick to being useless.

[Atreides]

I tried to get through StarTropics but some of the bosses are too retardedly difficult/tricky, and I really don't have the patience for it. Meh.

Symphony of the Night is soooo gooood though, although I feel retarded for buying the PSN version and not just getting Dracula X Chronicles and unlocking it, but whatever. So now I'm going nuts burning PSX isos to compensate, anyone have any non-RPG ps1 recommendations?
