I finished Blade Runner, so now I'm going to get back to Final Fantasy VIII and Okami. I've also played a lot of Grand Theft Auto III recently.

This game is quite difficult. I remember I used to get so frustrated.....good times, good times.

I'm a reasonable man, get off my case

I just got Heavenly Sword from Gamefly and sent it back after about two hours of play. Wasn't great.

The game I play most right now is Call of Duty 4 online on the PS3.

I repeat myself when under stress, I repeat myself when under stress, I repeat myself when under stress, I repeat myself when under stress, I repeat myself when under stress . . .

Ooh, forgot about this thread. Today I spent much too long playing:

Is anyone here planning to get this:

Looks interesting enough. Though the EA logo is probably the scariest thing about the game. What do you think, will it be worth the money?

Both games look interesting. I'm really looking forward to Mirror's Edge gameplay, just the fact that weapons are not useful. I'm also a huge fan of parkour style action.

I'm playing Spore (creature pics soon to follow)

I've rarely heard good things about ANY Star Wars game. Come to think of it, licensed games are just about always bad.

lately
Xenosaga Episode I and Shadow of the Colossus
and a little bit of Warcraft 3 online

I really need to play Shadow of the Colossus.

And Ico, that was by the same dudes.

minimalist storytelling FTW!
Shadow should have been on the PS3, it has a lot of glitches but
they put an enormous amount of detail in that game.

They have a discussion on the game and some really interesting points arise.
Spoiler warning, though.

I bought this the other day, and hooooly cow. Easily one of the freakiest games in history Shocked

The plot is anything but original. You are sent to check out a mining starship stranded in a forgotten corner of space. Of course your ship is damaged on the way in, so once the excrement hits the fan you can't just run back to the docking station and leave. Still, this game just beats Doom 3 (an obvious inspiration) in so many ways.

The monsters are the most disturbing I've ever seen, probably more so than the ones in the Silent Hill series. The trap designs are quite intelligent and the locations are nothing short of awesome. And then there are the set pieces Wacko

... The game seems to be heavily inspired by System Shock 2 and the classic The Thing. A winning combination, no doubt.

It's not perfect; I was really let down by the final level, with its monotonous gameplay and somewhat regular-looking final boss (but that just highlights how freaky the other monsters are!). Then there are some tasks that are quite irritating to complete. But really, this game is just freaking EPIC. I still feel uneasy about playing it again...

I ts been a long time since I last played a video game , I used to be a gamer a couple oy years ago. Probably I don't have the time

What do you think? I beliave that the second half of the 90's was the golden era in video games , specially for the PSX that's the best console ever. Games are neither innovative , nor exiting now. I mean yes.... LOADS of graphics but Its always the same idea.

I feel like playing Gran turismo 2 or Street Fighter alpha 3.
