Well, I'm playing my games that I have in my signature. Also, I just got Max Payne 2 for the PS2, and I'm start playing that. Lastly, I just beat Devil May Cry 2, this game was too easy. It didn't have the challenge that the first one had.

[SIZE=-3]I mainly play Unreal Tournament 2004, and Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War.

I play UT2k4 because I run a clan. We play vCTF, iCTF, and I personally compete in iMix. So we play everyday almost, and compete in ladders every week. We've won several leagues. :D

I also play Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War, because it restores my faith in RTS's. I thought that we really needed a good RTS, something new and refreshing. None of the same rehashed Starcraft/Warcraft formulas. Dawn of War took it to a whole new level, with entirely orginal gameplay. So I've been hooked on it for months.

Anything else, I'm already done with.[/SIZE]

[color=darkblue][font=trebuchet ms]I'm currently playing two games. Right now I'm on my fourth playthrough of MGS3, trying to find every Kerotan, and interrogate and hold up every guard in normal difficulty. I'm also trying to get The End's camo, and search for a hard-to-find Snake.

I'm also playing Katamari Damacy. I just beat it yesterday, so I'm now focusing on finding every present, and make some constellations and stars bigger. I recommend this game to anyone, and I mean [i]anyone[/i]. The Dual Shock 2 analog sticks could not be used better.[/font][/color]

I've just been playing Medal of Honour: Pacific Assault at the moment, and Need for Speed: Underground 2.

The problem with MoH:PA is that it lacks Anti-Alias support, so even edges look jaggy on the highest settings if you have a medium-range card like the Ati Radeon X300 SE that I have. Plus it ran slow, but now it runs fine, and the graphics really pay off in combat. The flight missions were bloody difficult to control though.

Need for Speed: Underground 2 I haven't really got into as I'm not a big racing fan-boy. However, once you pick up some speed in that game, you [i]really[/i] feel it. Especially in my un-modded Peugeot 106 lol. I play that on XBOX.

Also, to add, I'm been playing Guilty Gear X (on my signature), and I have to say it's awesome. Not only I'm not only an anime fanboy but, I love 2D fighters as well. Guilty Gear X plays just as good as it looks. Guilty Gear X is up to the level of Capcom Vs Snk 2. I can't wait to play Guilty Gear X2. I was thinking about getting GGX2 Reload for the Xbox since it's only $19.99. :D

[COLOR=DarkRed][SIZE=1]After months and months of procrastinating, I finally picked up the Street Fighter Anneversary Collection. What a well-spent 25$.

I'm trying for 100% on GTA: San Andreas, and every once in a while, I pick up a little time to get some Front Mission 4 in, as wel. . Most of my gaming is devoted to GTA:SA and Street Fighter (and SF: Alpha 3 for GBA).

-the one and only

And I cannot f*n beat Contra: Shattered Soldier. My god, that game is so difficult.[/SIZE][/COLOR]

[SIZE=1][COLOR=darkred]Well, let's see. .

Still playing: Halo 2 (online, it's one of the only ways to keep in contact with my friends back across state)

Currently Playing: Mercenaries (it's what GTA should have been I think. . but that's my opinion. Also, may have to start over, because I've ruined some faction standings (really!), my last save point was so far ago, and I don't remember all the boxes I've found/listening devices I've destroyed/etc. . )

Started Playing: Resident Evil 4 (Going to have to play this when my senses are a little sharper. 5:00am in the morning isn't the best time to play a Survival-Horror game ^_^)

Waiting to play: Legend of Zelda-The Minish Cap and Super Mario 64-DS (Don't have my GBA SP anymore, and still waiting to get a DS. . *cries*) [/SIZE][/COLOR]

Hey, Noryko, would you recommend Mercenaries? It looked good, but I'm a bit iffy on it. I like the "blow crap up" military genre, and I was wondering if it was good enough to spend the fifty bucks on it.

On topic, I have a few games I'm playing right now.

Metal Gear Solid 3 - Also on my 4th time through. But I have the Moss Camo. Cyke, it rocks. Worth the time getting it. Free stamina during the daytime. Also looking for the Kerotan frogs [17 so far], and I have everything else except the EZ Gun and the Stealth Camo. I love the Zombie paint. Let's assimilate life from soldiers. :D

Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3 - This is the first game that actually does the series good justice. While some things make me mad [a lack of DUs for some characters, for example], the gameplay is significantly better than the last two installments of the series. The fighting styles are more varied, with different set-ups, and the ability to do a one-hit kill with Vegita or Kakarot makes it worthwhile, just to humble some lesser foe. ^_~

Prince of Persia: Warrior Within - This game is just plain fun. I've beaten it seven times over, five times with the real ending and twice with the alternate ending [spoiler][noooo, come back Kaileena. ;(][/spoiler], and it's a visually gratifying game. Just running around and looking at stuff is fun. Not to mention the combat you get into makes most hack 'n slash games look like they came from the Atari.

Those are my new ones, but I still tool around with my older ones.

[San Andreas disc = scratched = no play. =/]

[color=#4B0082]Added spoiler tags. - [i]Desbreko[/i][/color]

[size=1]Oh, come on, I didn't even describe anything about it. :P Honestly, my bad. Didn't even think about that. >_>[/size]

Oh, yeah. But that's what makes it so f*n great, doesn't it? It's totally old-school. ^_^

I'm currently playing Half-Life 2 on PC, RE4 on GC, Pokemon FireRed on GBA, and...having just beaten KotOR II, I'm going to start Metroid: Echoes again. I'm still flabbergasted at just how many high-quality titles came out this fall. I've poured 100 hours easily into KotOR II, and my HL2 time is nearing 8 hours, I think, probably more than that. I know I've logged 9 hours in RE4. FireRed is nearing 10 hours, lol.

[quote name='Chaos']Hey, Noryko, would you recommend Mercenaries? It looked good, but I'm a bit iffy on it. I like the "blow crap up" military genre, and I was wondering if it was good enough to spend the fifty bucks on it. [/quote]

[SIZE=1][COLOR=darkred]Ya Chaos, I would recommend Mercenaries. Honestly, it's a pretty fun game, and many of the vehicles have a nice feel. The map is big enough where you don't want to run, but small enough to where it doesn't feel like you've been driving for hours to get from city to city. The cities are spaced out enough, and empty enough to where you don't feel like you've been driving aroundt he same part of the city for hours. The HUD is pretty nice, and the ability to only carry two weapons makes you have to balance your selection (for example, I carry the Carbine and the RPG, so I can take out infantry and tanks when necessary).

The tricky part comes in to the 'faction' element to the game. The first 'chapter' is pretty easy to deal with, but I got into the second part, and wow, it's tough not to take faction hits. I started the game over, and I'm going to try to pick up the majority of the 'secret items' in the game. Hopefully, when I get to the second part of the game, I will be a little better off for faction and such.

I don't really think there are any spoilers in there, so I won't bother with the spoiler tags. If I said anything that someone didn't want to know, then I appologize! [/SIZE][/COLOR]

The games I'm currently playing are:
Metroid Prime 2:Echoes I'm still trying to beat this one just got to find a few more things.Like some keys that would probably take awhile.

Tales of Symphonia Going through the game for the second time.This time the game feels way to short.

Paper Mario and the Thousand Year Door I'm at the last boss on this one.I must say the last boss is pretty hard.

Animal Crossing I'm just fooling around in this game.

And finally Viewtiful Joe 2 I've already beaten the game and it's kind of boring.

[FONT=Palatino Linotype][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]amazingly i have been playing Star Ocean and Final Fantasy IX on PS2. FF is very boring in my eyes but then again it can have its fun moments. and as for Star Ocean, it is a wonderful and fun game. its keeps you guessing and you get to choose the level that you want to be at.

I've traded in so many older games for newer titles that what I bother to play seems to be changing constantly. Recently, The Minish Cap has pretty much just been living in my DS. There's been better Zelda titles, but the game is still very enjoyable. Before that, I had Advance Wars 2 in there (was only $10 at Best Buy a few weeks back).

On GCN I was playing Baten Kaitos for a few weeks... until RE4 came out. I finished the main quest in that, however, and once I'm done playing with the stuff I unlocked, I'm sure I'll move back to Baten Kaitos. Both excellent games, I think.

On PS2, I've really played nothing other than Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne and Katamari Damacy for the past few months or so. Both simply excellent games. The former may not be for everyone (check out the thread on it here, I think it was pretty good), but the latter is something I think anyone can get into... Especially since it retails for only $10.

I did spend about ten hours with Shadow Hearts: Covenant until I realized it was never going to get any more interesting. What IGN was so excited over in that game, I have no idea. It's average.

On PC, I keep going back to Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines. Despite its flaws, I have been enjoying it. The only reason I've not played it the last week or so is because something that was supposed to happen never did. I've not been able to get to the next area and have no idea why lol.

[COLOR=Indigo][SIZE=1][FONT=Arial]I'm playing through FFX-2 to get 100% out of boredom at the moment, but that's about all. I rarely play games, lol, so even getting in a lengthy session with that game is a rare feat for me, haha.

Course, at the point I am in the game, with the characters I have, beating this boss WILL be a lengthy session so *shrug* I'll just put aside some time for it someday, heh, when very little is happening net-wise for me.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[color=#4B0082]I'd like to remind people that simply posting a list of games and nothing else is spam, and will be deleted. Lists don't promote or lead to any sort of discussion, and they're also pretty boring to read one after another.

So [i]please[/i] try and post up at least a quick thought or comment for each game you list. I really don't want to close this thread, as I think it could be a really good place to just pop in really quick and give some opinions on whatever you happen to be playing at the moment. A fun thread that anyone can just jump into, post some quick thoughts, see what other people think about whatever game, etc.

As for what I'm playing right now, my main focus has been [b]The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap[/b]. I just beat it a couple days ago, and now I'm searching for those last seven Pieces of Heart, and the last five Kinstone fusions I have left. And, of course, trying to get all of the figurines. The game rivals The Wind Waker for the amount of side quest stuff to do.

And then, of course, there's [b]PlanetSide[/b], an MMOFPS for the PC that I've been playing for the last few months. It doesn't look like it's going to get old for a good long while, and it continues to suck away a few hours of my time at least every other day. Sniping just never ceases to be fun. ... Unless I'm continually hunted down by aircraft whenever I try it. That sucks.

Third on my list is [b]Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles[/b]. I'm borrowing this game from a friend, and I've been playing it off and on every now and then. It's not as fun in single player mode, however, so I'm not playing it as much as I would be if I had someone else to play multiplayer with. Still fun to just run around and put the beat down on groups of baddies, though.

I really need to pick up Metroid Prime 2 Echoes again, though. I just sort of stopped playing after a bit. ... I dunno. I had fun whenever I played it, it just didn't grip me like the first one did. I'll complete it eventually, though. Even if it takes me years (*cough*FFIX*cough*), I almost always finish games that I start.[/color]

I just got back into playing Final Fantasy 8 after a several month lag and some issues witha stupid minigame and a ruby dragon. Grr, and thank god for Odin. Sucker got what he deserved.....

Anyway, I just got Halo for PC, and I play that whenever I feel like blowing the crap out of something. Not enough weapons in that, though. I'm stuck with only one kind of sniper rifle and it bothers me.

Thirdly, I [I]started[/I] playing Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, but really haven't been keeping up with it. I guess I just kinda got bored with it. On a side note: the multiplayer for that game really isn't all that great.

I've been playing Xenosaga alot recentaly, and I'm almost done with the game. Yay, I'll have it defeated before the second one comes out. The game, however, that has taken up most of my free time during the day is Shadow Hearts Covenant. I love this game, and I'm completely addicted. I enjoy its humor and the graphics aren't to bad either. :)

[SIZE=2][FONT=Comic Sans MS]I recently just bought Contra: Shattered Soldier. It just brings back old memories of playing Contra on the NES. It's a short game tho, but, man it is difficult. Which is a good thing, because it gives it replay. Also, like the Contra game on the NES, which was very challenging, it stays true to that root. [/FONT] [/SIZE]

[COLOR=Red]Today I've started to divvy up my video game time between two games. Timesplitters 2 and Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life. In Timesplitters 2, I enjoy playing virus mode, and am currently trying to work on a perfect map for it, and a 'Capture the Bag' map as well. I restarted my Harvest Moon file today. It's the best damn rpg in the world :D[/COLOR]
