Re: Unofficially Official What are you Playing

Chrono Trigger again for me, about to go get the really good equipment made from the Rainbow Shell after beating Yakra XIII.

Also playing Champions of Norrath and laying waste to everything. Rangers and Barbarians are just a tad broken.

It's been Monster Hunter and Mario Wii and Persona 3 the last couple of days.

Maxed out the Treasurer and Classmate Social Links, FINALLY got to the Winter World in Mario Wii and my bros. and I successfully captured a Tigrex in MHFU after an epic, epic, epic battle of wits and brawn.

My God, it was like the end of Star Wars.

My God, it was like the end of Star Wars.

So was it you or was it one of your bros that didn't get a medal placed around his neck?

Re: Unofficially Official What are you Playing

Don't know whether to start up Darksiders or Deadly Premonition. I've played a few hours of each before setting them down because they're long and involved games that demand my singular focus to enjoy. CHOICES!

Some more Pokemon Platinum, catching legendaries. Afterward, I'm gonna try and grab the Regis from another game. Then I'm going to be a bad evil person and Action Replay Cherish Balls into it and catch the Lv1 Regigigas. Appearantly so long as the Regigigas is caught with a Cherish Ball it'll unlock the Regis in Platinum. And I missed the event so it's my only way of getting the Regis in-game.

Re: Unofficially Official What are you Playing

I took a break from big games for a while the past month and a half, ending my run with Tekken 6 at the end of February (I got to rogue rank with a colorful emblem and didn't want to give that up).

I played the hell out of the Blur beta though, I implore anyone with live check it out. It's mario kart meets need for speed meets call of duty (!!!) and I can't wait for the full version. Let's all play sometime.

This month I've been playing a lot of arcade titles: virtual on, UNO, wanna get settlers of catan or carcassone, whichever one I like more. Finally got back into mainstream gaming last week when a friend let me borrow mass effect 2, it's cool but I think I like the original more. I liked being the savior of the galaxy rather than shady merc killing agent.

really wanna get back into some pc games maybe, TF2 or L4D2.

Re: Unofficially Official What are you Playing

I flaked on Bioshock and picked up Brutal Legend for $20 at Best Buy. I liked Psychonauts, but I was unsure about the RTS elements of Brutal Legend, because I'm generally not a fan of the genre. They're a breeze though. I'm having a thoroughly ridiculous time and loving every minute. I've unlocked 72 of 107 songs and I'm about 3/4s of the way through.

For anyone that likes metal and/or Tim Schaffer, this game is an absolute steal now.

Re: Unofficially Official What are you Playing

Yeah, I picked it up from my workplace for $20 about a month and a half ago. Still have yet to play it. I AM a fan of RTS games and of Tim Schaffer; Jack Black to a smaller extent, but metal...not so much.

Peggle Nights, like an old lady at the nickel slots.

There's a lovely image.


Brutal Legend is chock full of Schaffer's humor, even if you're not a big fan of metal, there's a lot of fun here. You have to let your inner Crunk out and just enjoy the ride. Also, it's not a huge time-sink, probably 20 hours if you go at a languid pace.

Just read through Loki and BZ's Mega-thon, it's whetted my appetite for MM9, another game I've missed the boat on.

Re: Unofficially Official What are you Playing

Dunno if it's gonna drop in price for a week or whatever in the Playstation Store any time soon, but if you've not played Shatter, you might enjoy that too, Shard. It's a brick-breaking game (Breakout, Arkanoid, etc) at its core, but brings a bunch of unique mechanics to the table, including boss battles. The PC version had a review posted on Gamestop this week.

Brutal Legend's one of the games I'm interested in when I eventually go next gen.

Fixed.



I feel like busting out some older PS2 JRPG that I have in my collection and have yet to play, but not sure which one. Also, there are a few Xbox 360 games I've had the urge to play recently, but I really cannot summon the motivation to plug the power supply into the back of the console, find the controller, and switch inputs on my receiver.

Been playing Gears of War 2 lately. $30 for the game of the year edition.
