What games are you playing at the moment?
 

I'm hooked on "Death Racers". I cannot stop playing this game. What games do you play right now?

Right now I'm playing a lot of Jenga.

Forget about Jenga! Play Zenga !!

Gaming capacity is maxed out by the continuous playthrough of every Assassin's Creed (faffing creed) game up to Brotherhood while we wait for Revelations to come down in price a bit. One of my flatmates bought Rage on the recommendations of a friend and although the game is a disappointment I maintain it was worth it to watch him become so frustrated by almost every aspect of the game. On those rare occasions when the TV isn't occupied I'm getting my Tomb Raider on (bought the original Tomb Raider for £2 a few months ago for nostalgia's sake and playing through Anniversary at the same time)

Of all things, I'm playing Final Fantasy XIII for the first time.

It's amazing what the pain of wisdom teeth removal will let you sit through...

Classic or Jell-o?

I'm playing (currently) Alan Wake, AC: Brotherhood (just discovered the fairly nice, almost mic-free MP, I just want all of Rome to open up to me in Story. Stupid last 3/4 viewpoints), Fortune Street (which is annoyingly/surprisingly hard) and Final Fantasy 8. Which I still have never finished due to disc errors on previous copies. I'm stalled on Drakengard 2 and Fable 1 thanks to wanting to play other stuff too much (and the former's annoying "difficulty").

I must be one of the only people on the planet who quite enjoyed FFXIII :(

Classic Jenga mainly, with the odd round of housebrick Jenga thrown in for shits and giggles.

Heh, I bought it for the girlfriend when it first came out. She played it for around ten hours before shelving it. There it sat until this past weekend, when for some reason, I got a hankering to play a FF game, but I wanted something "new"...I dunno. Lately I've been very OCD about gaming, jumping from one to another without finishing any. I have so many on a backlog right now, it isn't even funny.

I will say that I'm not a fan of the game so far. If it were anything other than a "Final Fantasy" title, I would consider it to be a very mediocre game with an extremely shitty story. Because it's a Final Fantasy game and it has the weight of years of experience and more than a few dollar signs backing it...makes it even worse, especially coming off of FFXII, which did show signs of improving the stale FF formula.

I don't know. I don't see anything redeeming in FFXIII yet. I just got to Gran Pulse, and finally am given somewhere to actually "explore". Of course that only took 26 hours. But even still there doesn't seem to be too much "new" and "different" to even try to find! We'll see. I'm determined to see this through to the end now. I want to know if it can get better or worse...

Right now I'm playing different games. Mainly because I really don't know exactly what it is I'm wanting to play. Bouncing between Assassin's Creed 2, Dragon Quest 9 (just grotto hunting and clearing), and any other game I feel like dusting off the shelf. I should work on clearing out my backlog with stuff like Silent Hill Downpour coming out soon, though. :\

Having finished Hunted: The Demon's Forge and A Vampyre Story, I'm now replaying Mass Effect 1, so I can transfer a new clear file for ME2 and then replay ME2 so I'll have a new clear file ready for ME3.

...

Bejeweled. :(

Haha I play that a lot. I don't even know why I like it so much. :rolleyes: I also enjoy playing Mahjong.

At the moment I've been playing Lunar 2 Eternal Blue since I never got around to it for some odd reason and I loved lunar sssc. I'm also picked up Guild Wars again after a very long hiatus since I want to play GW2 at some point.

I think I liked it because it was so linear. You could just plough through the (Very silly) story without odd diversions for the sake of it. I thought the paradigm changing thingy was a nice re-working of the costumes from FFX-2 although until you get to some of the harder hunts the fights are all far too easy. The game is almost the opposite of FFXII (Which is one of my favourite in the series) which gave you a free reign to go where you want and do what you want almost from the start.

I'd love to know what inspired both FF XIII and Mass Effect 2 to feature Aussie lesbians in the same year though. It can't be a coincidence surely?

I'm currently playing Xenogears, Jak II on the HD Collection, and Skyward Sword.

I just finished Mass effect 2 and started Red Dead Redemption. It's alright I suppose but suffers from a lack of a Bon Jovi soundtrack. I will say though that it's the shortest time from putting a new disc in to actually playing a game I've yet encountered on PS3, clocking in at a mere 5 minutes and 13 seconds worth of downloading and installing updates and loading, although you then sit through another five minutes of cut scene before you can actually press any buttons.

I picked up Borderlands a week or so ago when Steam had it on special. I haven't played it yet, but I'll probably get to it soon.

Aside from that, I've just started on Tales of Graces ƒ... It's pretty good so far, but then again, I'm a fan of the Tales series. That said, the battle mechanics are slightly different from what I'm used to, and haven't quite gotten the Artes system down yet, but I'm enjoying the game so far. :3:

Started playing Batman Arkham City yesterday (so gooood), and doing another run of MGS Peace Walker on the PSP.

Well, I beat FFXIII...there are no words...

Now to actually move to something better. Right now I'm playing Dungeon Siege III with the girlfriend and having a decent time of it. I also just bought Armored Core V, so hopefully that one will be okay.

Either Naughty Bear (who cannot deny loving beating the stuffing out of other stuffed bears...) and I am hoping to start playing American McGee's Alice: Madness Returns this weekend.

So Red Dead Redemption is pretty dull, I'm going to play either Borderlands or Crackdown 2 instead I think.

I picked up FFXIII yesterday because it was on sale. 2 hours into it, and it's ok so far, but still very very linear. Let's see how it goes.

Good luck! Hopefully you enjoy it more than I did... :)

On the home consoles, SSX for 360. Looks great and I'm only on the second mountain, but I am finding it difficult to get myself to continue playing it for some reason.

For the portable consoles Professor Layton and the Last Specter. It seems to be more of the same, but that's not a bad thing. It feels like the puzzles have been raised in difficulty this time around.

Torturing myself with crazy challenges on Trials Evolution and making tracks (the editor in the game is impressively powerful) which is fun, when it's not overly frustrating that is. Also working my way through Infinity Blade II on the iPhone which is a really great sequel to a great game that I'm very much digging right now.

The Witcher 2 on 360 is next up, hoping to start that in the next few days.

I recently started playing Might and Magic VI: Mandate of Heaven again. For consoles I've been playing Silent Hill HD collection, but I may hold off on playing more since Konami announced that they were working a patch to fix issues with Downpour and HD Collection. So I started trying to clear the backlog of games I've got building up. Turok and Warhammer 40k Space Marine are currently being played. Probably take up 3D Dot Game Heroes and LA Noire next.

Prototype 2. Just in preparation for Diablo 3.

If I finish before then, then I should probably start on The Witcher before playing the second one. If there's motivation past P2, that is.

Mostly ME3 but I got back into paying Syndicate co-op and some Battlefield on Xbox as well.

I grabbed Prototype 2 today and find that I am greatly enjoying this guy more than Alex Mercer. Once he started getting pissed off at the keyboard of a computer I was sold.

I bought a new HD TV, a Wii (lololooolololl looks like shit on HD TV) and component cables just to play Skyward Sword. I bought that shit day one and played it for a good ten hours and then never touched it.

Started playing it again, I'm still on and off about a lot of the game, but it's managing to keep me busy now a days. I will say the graphics are fucking terrible considering the game is running on a beefed up Gamecube and Windwaker and Twilight looked ten times better.

Gameplay has moments of pure brilliance but takes a couple steps back when it comes to fetch quests and boring dowsing quests.

Holding off on Diablo 3 for now. I'm in Inferno mode and just don't feel like playing as much at the moment. Trying out the Mists beta as well as playing the Harley Quinn DLC from Arkham City.

I was going to spend my summer gaming sessions recompleting FFVI, FFVII and the first 4 Tomb Raiders but somehow managed to lose my PS1 memory cards in the old flat so now I'm going to have to recomplete all my old PS1 games, the horror ;) For the moment FFXII is filling in. It's like my methadone, in that it's a cheap imitation of the real thing.
