[General Discussion] What are you currently playing???

Dragon Quest VIII

Pretty satisfied with it except for some minor flaws like:
- The framrate drops a little (noticable) when there are a large group of monsters simultaniously on the screen.
- There is this stupid 3-4 second camera paning around the party after every victorious battle. I absolutley hate it!
- The battle system is a little slow. Im more the SMT Nocturne kind of guy who likes the battles to go relatively fast.
- The buttons respond slowly sometimes.
- Maybe this is just me but sometimes the game loads a little to long.

Overall its a good game so far. The first 20 hours or so were pretty addictive.
Couldn't turn of the console

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Currently playing Shadow Hearts FTNW. There are som good aspects of it, some minor modifications/improvements to the battle system, but overall nowhere near Covenant. It just feels mediocre at best.

On the pc i've got Titan Quest and Prey. I've been dragging out titan quest for quite some time now due to the fact that the game is filled with bugs. I don't even know if i will ever finish it.

Prey has some good ideas, like the portals, the anti-gravity thing and to some extent the leaving of your body, but again overall, mediocre at best. The new ideas definatly boost the game, but again it just feels and plays like an ordinary FPS.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Johnny also has abnormally low SP..even Alice has more than this guy at the start and finish.

Are you talking about better battle system or better overall game?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
