Currently, I'm playing Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher's Bay.  I just started it and it's a lot of fun so far.  The fight mechanics are pretty good: you can block, punch, stab, break necks, and shoot.  You are also able to riposte, but it is very hard, especially when an enemy has a better weapon than you, such as a knife to your bronze knuckles.  When I faced a boss, it was impossible to riposte and after dying 6 times in a row and barely being able to get a hit on him, I got mad enough to just jam the attack button as quick as I could, and somehow I killed him quickly.  THat disappointed me, it should be more about skill than impossibility.  However, aside from that it is fun and I look forward to playing it through.  More review to follow.

 

I'm also playing Army of Two: 40th Day co-op campaign with my roommate.  It's basically a game in the spirit of Gears of War, same over-the-shoulder, 3rd person viewpoint, same diving and take-cover mechanics, and the same shooting mechanics.  Story-wise, though, it's a lot of fun.  You have two mercenaries who get stuck in Japan and have to find their way out during a mass bombing.  Some unknown army is attacking and you have to kill anyone who gets in your way.  It's not exactly a buddy-buddy game, you have the option of either being great friends by the end of the game, or enemies.   Also, it's really cool because certain choices are offered to you periodically and no matter if you choose moral, or immoral, you get to see the outcome of your choices through a anime-style cutscene.  I'm about halfway through, playing on the hardest difficulty, and there are only a few parts that are hard enough to warrant several playthroughs.  It's a really fun game and I highly suggest it, especially co-op.

[Ashaman DeRouge]

X3 Terran Conflict hahaha. This game is -vast- and I don't think I've quite got the scope of it yet anyway.

 

FIFA 10 still. Firefight on Halo still. Borrowed a game off a friend called Prototype, thats a bit of a pick up/put down one, not deep, but moments of fun.

[Krakalakachkn]

I forgot how much the teammate AI in Gears of War sucks!  They either let enemies walk right by them to kill me, or they get in my way when I'm shooting at people.

[Quibby]

PC: Torchlight(game made by a bunch of the same guys who made Diablo).

Diablo 2 (Psyched for 3, so I had to get me some Diablo goodness.  I know, I'm pathetic.)

 

 

PS1: Final Fantasy VII (It was a fun game, and I love the music.  Ergo, I'm required to replay it occasionally.)

 

360*: Mass Effect 2

Dante's Inferno

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2

 

 

*Gameplay to resume once 360 returns from RRoD repair.

[Spiffiness]

KotOR 2... I never actually finished it LOL and now that Obsidian is doing the WoT game, I figure I might as well give it another go.

 

Also playing L4D2 (PC), Grandia (new PSN release), and on new game+ for Mass Effect 2 (PC).

[Emperor]

Always playing Wow... but now I am also really into Bad Company 2.  Really good.

[Silver]

Yeah, Bad Company 2 mp is so addictive.

[Krakalakachkn]

I wasn't a big fan of Bad Company's MP.  Is BC 2's MP very different?

[Ashaman DeRouge]

Oh my god coin battle on new super mario brothers wii.

 

If you havn't played this with some friends, you have not played the ultimate mario experiance. Hands down one of the best multiplayer experiences EVER.

[ChronoCrosS]

I own that game but have yet to play coin battle. I'm playing FFX right now.

[Krakalakachkn]

Me, three of my roommates, and one neighbor have started an intense competitive lifestyle centering around two new (to us) games: snowboard kids 2 (n64) and FIFA 10 (360).  We have winner lists, brackets, and everything.  Unfortunately, I seem to be the worst out of the lot.  These two games have come to replace super smash (n64) which we played religiously for about a year.

Yes, they are awesome games. 1&3 have great gameplay, the story and gameplay is awesome in 1. Gameplay sucks hardcore in 2, but the story is actually good. The gameplay in 3 is best I think, but the story while good, sucked in that there needs to be more.

[Maiden_Sedai]

I play tons of games at once. Right now I'm playing:

 

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed

Time Crisis 4

Trauma Centre: Under the Knife 2

Dementium

[Ashaman DeRouge]

I love those games. Mindless troop slaughter.

[Blig Blog]

Battlefield: Bad Company 2

Batman: Arkham Asylum

inFAMOUS

Star Ocean: The Second Story

 

I would also be playing MW2 but I let a friend borrow it...I might never see it again. O.o

 

Yeah, Bad Company 2 mp is so addictive.

 

I agree. *nods*

 

I wasn't a big fan of Bad Company's MP.  Is BC 2's MP very different?

 

I don't know about the first one's MP but this one is great. It'll take some getting use to if you've been playing MW2 non-stop but it's really worth it. I like where you can call in infinite Mortar Strikes with a sniper class or respawn behind whoever you want to in your squad...etcetera...etcetera...

Got Splinter Cell Conviction yesterday. It takes a bit to get used to a stealth game again.

[Red2111]

we've unlocked LuBu in Dinasty Warriers 6 so me and Bubba are pretty much done with the game.

 

however we've bought Dinasty Warriers 6: Empires *nods*  looking forward to this very much so.  and i want Dinasty Warriers 6: Strike Force *grins*  because from what i've heard its alot like Fable 2

 

 

 

ooooo  upcommign games i'm excited about

 

Wii has a new Zelda game due out in November, and Mario Galaxy 2 is due out in late May *drools*

 

 

also, the 360 is releasing Fable 3 in November *does a jig*

 

 

of course, all this will be pushed to the side once my ps3 gets fixed and we get God of War 3.

[Spiffiness]

I'm now playing Onimusha 3, which I've never finished (working on 2 with a friend lol Jubei is ugly...). I just got to Mont Saint-Michel and decided to stop for the day. Those critical hits are hard to do! Especially on the ninja guys and the big monsters.

 

 

[Krakalakachkn]

NOTHING!  I'm Currently playing NOTHING!

 

SCREW FINALS!

[Red2111]

Dinasty Warriors 6: Empires and throroughly enjoying it!!

i can't wait to get DW6: Strikeforce!!
