    Jesus Christ Retr0gamer, I'd say you pass as much time choosing which game you will play as you would actually playing them.

    My ONLY SLIGHTLY less impressive "playing at the moment list" is as follows..

    Burnout 3.

    Far Cry, Doom 3 (they look so good on my new 6800GT) and
    Call Of Duty & United Offensive. For multi player games its got to be XMP :D

    Jesus Christ Retr0gamer, I'd say you pass as much time choosing which game you will play as you would actually playing them.

    Actually i do spend about 20 minutes trying to decide what i want to play :D . usually end up playing a saturn game since theres so many pick up and play arcade games. And recently Panzer Dragoon Azel had been taking up alot of play time until i beat it. Absolutely brilliant game. Makes the PDO storyline far more interesting.

    Front mission 4 and Vandal Hearts 2 aren't great and very frustrating (especially FM4 which gives you no money sometimes if you barely survive a map not to mention the annoying bastids with the carpet bombing rockets later on :eek: ) so i need some light hearted action games in between.

    If you like arcade games check out Gradius V which I think is out on Friday. Its brilliant and one of the greatest shumps I've ever played. Still can't decide if this or radiant silvergun is better. Even better it should be released at budget price.
