What game or games are you currently playing? Are you enjoying it? If not, then why are you playing it.

I'm playing two games right now, Final Fantasy XII and Castlevania Dracula X Chronicles. Final Fantasy XII is great. I'm playing it through this time trying to max out my characters early on and hopefully finish all the hunts this time. Dracula X Chronicles for PSP is really good too. I'm kind of playing between Rondo of Blood and Symphony of the Night. I haven't gotten the good ending on Rondo of Blood yet, but I think I will have it by tonight. I should be getting Guitar Hero 3 for my PS3 here soon hopefully, I'm looking forward to that a lot.

I'm at work and I'm procrastinating doing busy work. I'm bored.

Stick Arena :D (check it out www.stickarena.com (http://www.stickarena.com))

And, and, on Monday, I, will, yes, play SUPER MARIO GALAXY! Woo hoo!
Then Ratchet & Clank 3 and Guitar Heros I & II.

Right now, pretty much Team Fortress 2 and Guitar Hero 1 and 2. I really need to get those last four stars in Super Mario Galaxy, but I just can't bring myself to do it (freakin' purple coin levels... ARGH).

Gears of War. Yes I'm enjoying it. But I'd enjoy it more on the PC making my own maps and playing other custom maps. So send donations so I can upgrade my PC to play it.

DS:
Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin. (Currently in Death's Tower, left part.)
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow. I "finished" it, (With the Chaos ring, yay.) and have to beat Boss Rush mode. ... Sssseveral times.

GCN/Wii: (Because I don't use my GCN anymore and don't have any Wii games! :blah: )
Twilight Princess: In the middle of the Sky Temple. Just got the dungeon's treasure.
SSBM: ... um ... I guess I'm toying around with Fox? Trying to do a Drill-Shine more than once in a row.

PC:
Caesar IV: I need to get back into that. It's really, really awesome.
Heroes Of Might & Magic 5: I uninstalled it to make room for stuff, but never got past the third or so mission of the first campaign. Takes so long for each mission... I really like to be thorough.
Black & White 2: (Dumped B&W1 for it.) Still in the tutorial mission. I like to expand with no limitations. Just so much to manage all at once... ...
Frets On Fire: It's there. Not many songs for it though. (Five, maybe?)
Stepmania: Oh lord, don't even get me started. 1500+ Songs.
IRC. IRC is multiplayer notepad. What did you expect?

Draglade for the DS. I've gone through elec and fire kid's storylines so it's starting to get repetitive, but it looks like water kid's got an excellent storyline so I dunno.
After that I'm intending to try FF#somethingorother: Revenant Wings. Suppossed to be a decent RTS for the DS.
Also kinda playing Advance Wars by Web but I need to catch up on a few of my turns soon.

I've been playing Civilization IV: Beyond the Sword obsessively since October. The new corporations feature adds a new element to the game that appeals way way too much to my obsessive-perfectionist tendencies in these games.

Having reently gotten my brand spanking new PC (which can actually play modern games!), I've been re-installing all my old games and playing the ones that catch my interest. So I've played and completed Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge (via emulation), Doom 3, Half-Life 2 and Tron 2.0

Games I'm currently playing are Banjo-Tooie (via emulation), Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil (with every graphical bell and whistle turned on) and Tomb Raider: Anniversary (my most recent purchase). I was also playing Ankh: Heart of Osiris, before I got to the cooking puzzle and promptly lost interest. I mean seriously... a guy cooking? Ha!

Technically Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronoicles, however I've yet to figure out how to unlock the last two 1 player missions [the one for Destruction of Raccoon City, and the last one for The Fall of Umbrella. Those guys in the white coats are fucking badass]

Also, Kingdom Hearts 2. Battle of 1000 Heartless was fucking insane. I didn't think I would have to actually fight 1000 heartless all at once. Serious win.

Still nursing my Exteel addiction, with a side order of yet another Planescape: Torment playthrough. I'll likely start a trip through Mass Effect after the holidays (yay, christmas money), despite my general annoyance with Bioware for making increasingly simplistic RPGs. Whatever happened to the good stuff like Fallout and Baldur's Gate? Jackasses.

I'm playing Super Metroid on my Wii's Virtual Console right now.
And I'm doing my best to get all 120 stars in Super Mario Galaxy...

Later today I will be playing NHL '08 for PS2 with my brother because I bought that for him as a Christmas gift... :)

Currently playing? Call of Duty 4, Assassin's Creed and Ace Combat 6 along with Castlevania: SotN through XBLA. I'll probably try playing FEAR again now that I have enough RAM to actually play it.

I'm playing Harvest Moon: Magical Melodies.

I love the thought of spending hours picking weeds in this game when my mother is outside doing the same and wondering why I will gladly do it in a game. Excellent.

I just got Ikaruga for the gamecube and It's freakin sweet. My first try on normal mode I couldn't pass lv4. Translation: Awesome. ...There really needs to be more japanese shoot-em-ups released here in the states. If we could get as many of those as the crappy racing games that get released in bunches, I'd die much happier.

Also picked up used copies of Kings field, Legend of Alon D'or, Dragon Quest 8, Metroid prime, and Baten Kaitos for a combined 40 bucks plus some tax. Fuck, Gift cards and bargain bins kick ass.

Playing the 4 DS games I picked up with my gift card (Megaman ZX, Contra 4, Final Fantasy 3, and New SMB), as well as Phantom Hourglass, and occasionally some Halo 3. Also want to go back and finish of Zack at some point.

Ikaruga is going to be released for the Xbox Live soon. I can't wait, it looks awesome. I've been playing Eternal Sonata and Super Mario Galaxy.

It is going to be awesome. Some of the guys at the office downloaded it off of PartnerNet and were playing it the other day, and it looks like a frikin' blast.

Yeah, you guys are gonna love Ikaruga. ;) I haven't logged many hours yet, but I finally managed to unlock all of lv4 in practice mode. Lv4 is that fucked up that you need to play just that one level a few times in a row..

And realizing just how much I miss the hardcore shmups I picked up Gradius V and Shikigami no Shiro 2 (castle shikigami) for the ps2, Which I have to say are both awesome. Gradius V is also done by treasure (not really sure how much of it) and has too be the best level design for a sidescrolling shooter on a console. SnS2 on extreme mode is pretty intense "bullet hell" game as well. Fun times.

Anyone play either one of the Disgaea games? The first one seems to be much harder to find than the second. I don't wan't to assume it's a much better game for that reason though. Is there a big difference between the two?

I've just finished the latest Sam & Max. Very odd game.

Portal 2? Man, I'm so behind.. ... Link? D:

I'm playing World of Warcraft on a private server. Otherwise, I have very little else to do. WoW is time consuming when I Do play. I'm the person that gathers materials for the guild; Including Gold. We've stockpiled 3,000+ Gold so far, have a few netherweave bags, more gems/jewels than I would care to count, and a lot of plans sitting around. Damn...

No idea what I want to play on a PII 300 MHZ machine though.

Can't blame you though, WoW costs alot of money unless you really waste alot of your time on it.

Oracle of Ages, which I've had since 2001 but still haven't beat yet. I'm bad with beating games. I seem to have something I call "Game ADD", where I'll play a game for a while, then lose interest, get involved with another game instead, find something else to do with my time (or have to do things for school), etc. Then, when I pick up the game again months later, I just start over instead of continuing where I left off. So basically, for me to beat a game, I have to do it within a few days before Game ADD strikes.

I'm also playing the ZC quest, Origin by DarkFlameWolf.

I do the exact same thing with most games. The only exception was OOT. The first time took me forever until I would up home sick for a while, but I've played it a bunch of times since and each time I just stay up until I'm done.

Another victim of Gamer ADD.

A game has to be really good for me to stick with it to the end, or I'll drift away from it. Also, if I get stuck and can't find a walkthrough or something, then that's pretty much a death knoll right there. I'm looking at you, Joe's Quest!

Ehh, I think I'll give Radiata Stories another play....


Ugh, I really need to get an XBox 360.
