What games are you currently playing?

Hey Guys,

I know we have a thread for games that you have completed/finished, but I know I'll play many games and never finish/complete it so I thought it would be neat to see what other members were playing!

Here's my currently list of games

PSX
Metal Gear Solid (Somehow I missed this series and I have never played it before)

PS2
Final Fantasy XII

PS3
Gran Turismo 5

Once I finish Metal Gear Solid for PSX, I have Metal Gear Solid 2 & 3 already for my Playstation 2. Once I beat those two games, I'll pick up a copy of Metal Gear Solid 4 for the Playstation 3.

There's actually a thread about this, but got lost in the depths of Gaming General Discussion, here's the link:

I even searched for a similar thread before I posted this one, guess I didn't look hard enough! I figure since the other thread is 2 years old lets give this one a shot! If not thats fine.

Either way just thought it would be something fun for everyone!

On consoles, i'm mostly playing my PS3 since i have so many games to finish yet. I'm close to finish Uncharted and still have Uncharted 2 next. Also, there's Dead Space, God of War III, Dirt 2, Infamous, Wipeout HD Fury and Burnout Paradise with lots of gaming time ahead of me as well.

I put Motorstorm Pacific Rift aside a bit. It's very addicting but it gets so difficult at later stages it makes me want to break something!

 

How you liking Uncharted Johnny? I myself love them. Probably two of my favourite games actually. I just love the whole Indiana Jones theme mixed with Tomb Raider it really is amazing. Your gonna love 2 and onlines a lot of fun. Cant wait for the 3rd already. Got stupidly high expectations for it!

 

Magical Taruruuto-Kun - Magic Adventure (SFC)

 

Uncharted surely is one of the best series on this generation. Great game, beautiful visuals, addicting, challenging and amazing controls. Naughty Dog knows how to make a great game, ever since their Crash Bandicoot days.

I last stopped playing on chapter 17. Hopefully i can finish this holidays. And i know about the online on the 2nd. That's why i haven't played it yet. I don't want to get addicted to it and forget to finish the first one. And yes, i also read about the 3rd one and i'm sure it's gonna be even better than the 2nd.

 

Need For Speed:Hot Pursuit on the XBOX 360.

Not a big fan of NFS but i'm enjoying this one, probably due to the elements of Burnout.

Also, Scott Pilgrim is still getting attention, best 400 points i've ever spent

 

Sounds like I game I need to get for my PS3! I only have 6 PS3 games! I still need to beat Dirt 2, I'm probably going to sell Need For Speed Shift, I just can't get use to the controls, the line between grip and no grip is so small I can't get a good feel for it. I'm stuck on the finally boss fight for inFamous, which is an amazing game!

The one game I really want to play from the beginning again is Batman Arkum Asylum, the single best Comic book hero game I have ever played for any system.

I've found a new copy of Metal Gear Solid 4 for 15 bucks for the PS3 which I think I'm going to get but I'm not going to play it till I beat 1 and 2 and the minimum. From my understanding, Metal Gear Solid 3 is a pre-quel to the first two, so I can see myself playing Metal Gear Solid 3 and 4 at the same time.

How many other people are like that by the way? Find a game serious and refuse to play a game latter in the series until they have beaten the previous ones? The only series I ignore that on is Final Fantasy because they are not back to back stories at all.

Right now I'm splitting time between Fallout: New Vegas and CoD: Black Ops.

I bought Red Dead Redemption and Mass Effect 2 on Black Friday.

I also picked up Bayonetta. I really want to try and finish all the achievements in that one.

I got the new maps for Halo: Reach but haven't tried them out yet.

 

Games I've played recently:

Diddy Kong Racing (N64)
Blazing Star (Neo Geo MVS)
Metal Gear Solid 4 (PS3)
Earthworm Jim 2 (Genesis)
Vectorman (Genesis)

 

360:
Mushihime-sama Futari
Guwange
NFS: Hot Pursuit (probably the first NFS I've liked since the original Hot Pursuit or Porsche Unleashed, then again everything by Criterion except for Burnout Paradise has been sweet. Getting rid of the retarded tuner shit didn't hurt either)
Rock Band 3

 

Final Fantasy VII (I'm always playing it)
Final Fantasy XII (forcing myself to get into it)
Gran Turismo 4
C&C Red Alert.

 

I have started playing Tomb Raider 3 on the PS1, after I finished playing MGS Integral.

 

What don't you like about FFXII? It took me a while to get use to the view controls and get my bearings but I'm enjoying the game throughly.

If its something story relate just say story related, I don't want any spoilers :nod:

You couldn't have summed up the series any better. Totally agree with it all Naughty Dog has been one of my favourite developers since the Crash days.

Yeah completing the story like I did is the best way before getting really in to the online play. Best to get them done before you get GT 5

 

I've surprised myself by really enjoying the odd 20-minute blast on Counterstrike. For the original Xbox. Weird, I know. Really though the bots are decent enough to make it fun, they don't call me a gay homo or whatever, and mostly it's a nostalgia trip anyway.

Also bought a couple of gun games for the PS2 (Virtua Cop and Time Crisis 2) only to find that my gun seems to be on the way out. So that's fucking great.

Some friends came over Friday night and we blasted through Megaman 2 and Streets of Rage 2. Perfect drunken gaming.

 

Whenever my brother comes to town, we dig out the N64 and go for about 2 ~ 3 hour marathon of playing NBA Hang Time. I don't know what it is about that game, but with my brother there him and I can play it for hours.

I wish Midway would come make a newer version of the game. I know NBA Jam came out for the Wii, but you can't create your own character which I really miss.
