Whatcha playing? (June edition)

rainbow kirby

Hasn't been asked in a while... and there's probably gonna be a lot of GTA:SA responses, but anyways...
I'm currently playing:
Skies of Arcadia Legends (GC) - like I said before, even though I'm not a big RPG fan, this is great. Air Pirates = win.
WarioWare Inc: Minigame Mania (GBA) - Again. Couldn't resist taking it out again last week and now I'm addicted again. :rolleyes: Haven't touched a DS game since I picked this up again.

Probably gonna import WarioWare Twisted pretty soon.

PC: New upgrade so loads of catching up to do
Medal of Honour: Pacific Assault: Far better than the terrible demo. Different pace to many FPS games. Overall I'm enjoying it immensely.
Doom 3: No where near as terrible as i thought it would be but nothing special either. Decent enough but not great.

PS2:
Devil Mat Cry 3: Very frustrating but very good at the same time.
Katamari Damacry: So much fun I had to play it again

Gamecube:
F-zero GX: Still haven't managed to beat this excellent futuristic racer.

Xbox:
Halo 2: Not great the second time through. Getting very dull as I approach the end.

Saturn:
Radiant Silvergun: Can't stop playing this. Best shmup ever.
Shining Force 3: Excellent strategy RPG.

N64:
Mario 64: Love this game so much I'm playing it again

Mr. Driller: Great puzzle game
Shining Force: Fantastic strategy RPG.

TMB... we've very similar tastes!

PC: San Andreas (currently installing, praying it'll work) and... Psychonauts..

Psychonauts is a nice little game.. nice little 3D platformer with plenty of humour!

EDIT: San Andreas worked... and it's very cool! :cool:

Playing Resident Evil 4 on PRO!

tman

Xbox
San Andreas - i couldn't wait until the pc version arrives in the post tomorrow so i rented it for the xbox
i'm blown away by the sheer scale of it - "gigantic" just about sums it up... and i'm still only on the first city!
Mercenaries - fairly "meh". i can see it drawing me in though
Pro Evo 4 - sheer quality
Halo 2 - extremely "meh"

GC
Metroid Prime - God damn i love this game!
Resi 4 - not very replayable tbh (but then again, this is almost my fourth playthrough...)
Eternal Darkness - sold this game and deleted the save to make some room on my memory card... bought it again and i've had to start over from the beginning.

PC
Vice City - i'd forgotten what a balls the mission where you have to steal a tank is
Far Cry - got as far as the end of the fort level and gave up... i'll pick it up again though.
Halo - well... i reinstalled it anyway. not sure if i can be arsed finishing it tbh

oh yeah... and some emulated Super Metroid

I just got a PC after quite some time with a low-spec one, so a few older games alongside the newer...

Deus Ex: Please don't hate me for not getting to play it until now. Really good.

Thief- Deadly Shadows: I loved the first two, this one's also great. Shame about the segmented levels though.

Perimiter: This is really odd, but cool. And quite pretty.

Far Cry: Gorgeous with everything turned up full, and not a bad game to boot.

Morrowind: So big. So very, very big. And fabulous.

Star Wars KOTOR: Also really cool. And OMG Wookies!

Mechwarrior 4 Mercs: I like this. Bit like MW2 Mercs but with much snazzier visuals.

Doom 3: Pretty, but unfulfilling. Rather boring.

And a couple of other small things like ADOM or Dopewars...

I managed to clear FarCry on the hardest setting, it's mostly do-able, untill you get to the volcano crater at the very end, and have to fight 6 or so of the huge beasties... being super-pissy and hiding in the small alcove between the two main doors and shooting people in the shoulder is the order of the day.

Still, makes you feel like a small god when you do get past it.
a small, cheap, god, but a god none the less.

Anyway this month i have been mostly playing

Guardian Heros Advance (GBA): kinda disapointed with this, as i cleared it in the four hours or so it took me to get home at the weekend. Good fun while it lasted.

Shining force (GBA): Just started, kinda funky, hopefully it'll make those long journeys to sligo fly by.

Tales of Symphonia (GC)
probably the best 'cube RPG [Skies of arcadia doesn't count, i owned a DC]

monkeyfudge

I started playing Tales Of Symphonia over the weekend.

I bought it months ago and just couldn't get into it at the time. But now it has me hooked alright.

And I also playing City of Heroes a bit too... but I haven't been able to play it for a while as the room I keep my PC in has no electricity... I really need to get that fixed this week...

Yeah. It's pretty good... But I'm going to go completely mental if I play one more RPG were I have to escort some pious bint around on a quest to heal the world... I've already done this in Grandia 2 and Final Fantasy X.

I'm only about 9 hours in so I'm hoping the storyline in Tales of Symphonia will open up a bit more soon.

Stephen

PC: GTA San Andreas - so much better than it was on the playstation
Xbox: Midnight Club 3 dub edition - hasn't been touched since GTA arrived
PS2: Nothing right now... GT4 a while back.

Don't worry. It starts off cliched but gets a bit more interesting along the way. Just don't expect anything mind blowing. It's more about the characters than the story. I got a few laughs at Llyods expense, he's a bit of a plonker

SonicDoom2005

PC: Sam and max, gabriel knight, swat 4 and pariah (an absolutley horrible game that I am forcing myself to play just to get it out of the way)

PS2: MGS 3, Gta:Vice city( had to re-visit it one last time)

XBOX: Morrowind and steel battalion (yes i do have the 40+ button controller and it rocks)

Do find myself laughing quite a bit whenever Raine smacks someone over the head...

Retr0gamer

She still can't beat Justins mother from Grandia when she took a frying pan to his head.

PC
Well cs is still my main game but seen myself playiing some wc3 lately.
Getting the Battlefeild 2 demo atm.

tis a hell of a lot better than the xbox version as well.
apart from the sudden reboot of my machine a few minutes ago, and a few bugs here and there...

orangerooster

PS2- MGS 3.
PC- Morrowind. Nothing much new out that interests me at the moment, thinking of going back to Baldurs Gate 2 to clear it again but might not.

Gummy Panda

PS2 - GT4. bought it today from GAME. Bit suspect about the loyality points on my card as the GAME website said £10 and the guy in the store said €10.

XBOX - Ninja Gaiden. On chapter 10. Taking a break after spawn killing in the aquaducts to upgrade my weapons. Now have the Unlaboured Flawness

GC - Resi 4. Have to finish this even though i've had it since the US release.

Dcully

World of Warcraft,BF 2 demo,GTR with the odd bit of DOD and COD thrown in.
IMO its a toss between wow and BF2 [judging by the demo] for probably the best games i have ever played on any system.

Lord Oz

Currently playing San Andreas and Homeworld 2 on the PC, playing Mechassault 2 on xbox. Nothing in the GC right now though.

sound_wave

PSP:
WipeOut Pure

DS/GBA:
Polarium,
Mario DS,

Haven't bought a GC out here in the US (yet) even though you can get one second hand for about $49.
