Sadly, I recently broke my "One game at a time" rule, and have about a gajillion games on the go.

BioShock
Transformers War for Cybertron
Halo 3
Dragon Age Origins
Oddworld Stranger's Wrath (for the first time, yay me!)

just to name a few.

Yeah Gears is fun, you gotta admit I started playing a lot better once I realized you can't run and gun in that game at all.

Starcraft 2. Picked it up today, after waiting 12 YEARS to play it.
I'm very impressed so far, though it doesn't seem as good as it should, as I am sleep deprived.

Blizzard has done it once again.

I finished the DLC for Alan Wake. Holy shit, is it terrible. It's just a ton of combat situations with every one being at about seven times the difficulty of the hardest section in the main game. Except for the final fight which takes no effort to beat.

You mean Starcraft Ghost? You're gonna be waiting a while. You get to play as Nova in SC2 though. Pretty sweet.

I started Machinarium earlier today. It's pretty neat so far, for some reason it really reminds me of Courage the Cowardly Dog in some ways. I like the artwork a lot, plus the characters I've come across so far. It's kind of eerie in some ways too, like those strange thought bubbles that come up if the game is left idle. Interesting though, I like it so far.

I'm playing Lost Planet 2, was a fan of the first and this one is pretty fun too. The only game I'm looking forward to is Halo Reach, got a while yet...

A big old pile of Virtual Console and other Wii games. Cave Story is excellent and much more fun to play on the Wii, Super Smash Bros. (The N64 one) is pretty good, but I unlocked 3 of the secret characters by just arbitrarily farting around in the single player sections.

There's some Wiiware game out for 500 points called Heavy Fire somethignsomethingsomething, basically a rail shooter where you kill a bajillion middle eastern people. It's not super great.

I never had a PS1. I just bought it from the PSN because I found out about the cards which can be bought then the funds transferred onto a PSN account.

It's still the best MGS, in retrospect MGS4 didn't have enough gameplay.

A nyway I'm playing Ultimate Spider-Man on Gamecube lol it's fun.

I played MGS4 first. I then dug up an old demo of MGS3 and loved it. I, at that point, decided I wanted to get more MGS games. At the start of chpt.4 in MGS4, I loved the flashback and was inspired to buy MGS. A few days later and I now own it. Now I only need 2 and 3.

I want to find a copy of MGS3:Subsistance, though, as the camera in the regular version is crap for the jungle setting. It may take me a while to find...

Having just looked up the price of an Xbox 360, I concede. However, having just looked up the price of a PlayStation 3, you can get a decent computer for the same amount.

Uh nope, I was poor long before I started buying game consoles, I think it has something to do with the family I was born into idk.

Oh and Ultimate Spider-Man is cool I just learned how to do web walls.

The camera was a huge blow for the regular edition, though. I saw a copy of Subsistance on the weekend for $100. If only I'd had money with me...

I didn't even know they tweaked the camera in MGS3, damn I should've played that, the only part of the game that had a really excellent camera was the motorcycle chase at the end which was phenomenal!!

I bought one of those prepaid microsoft cards and squandered it on the Halo 3 maps I didn't have, it's nice to play on maps like Midship and sidewinder again.

Dude.

N+ or 'Splosion Man. Don't make this mistake again.

I recommend N+ because of the awesome level creator.
