what are you playing?
 

it's funny how this site originated from a gaming based discussion board and yet we seem to rarely talk about it anymore.

so, what are you playing, and on what medium? do some of you even play modern games anymore?

i've been playing a lot of my nintendo DS lately because the TV is often out of my control, so meteos and nintendogs has been keeping me happy.

in addition, i think i played about 10-12 hours of we love katamari, easy, over the past week or so. damn addictive japanese games. also, silent hill 3 is sitting on top of my ps2 just begging me to play it.

as far as "modern games" go, i'm played a fair amount of we love katamari and taiko drum master recently... you can get taiko (with the drum, natch) for $15 at best buy if you use the gamers gift card coupon. it used to retail for $60.

but the most recent game i've started again is final fantasy II/IV. i should probably wait til december and get it for GBA instead of playing it now, but i got bored the other day and decided to run though it for old times sake. i'm kind of amazed at how shoddy the writing is... as a 12 year old i clearly had very, very poor taste, because i thought this game was the end all be all.

hah, you're right, FFIV has some really poor writing at some points, but it is a great game.

i bought Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow last night, and I've been playing We <3 Katamari a lot again over the past few days. I haven't touched Nintendogs for a long time :(

Hmm..

World of Warcraft
DAoC (just reactivated my acct yesterday for one month only, in order to get the expansion setup)
CoD2 SP Demo (quick run, but nice graphics, fun)
Ragdoll Kung Fu (confused the hell out of me at first)
BF2 (new patch includes BF1942 map remake)

civilization 3
nintendogs
never winter nights
and ill get back to some WoW sooner or later

Castlevania: DS like woah

Lufia II and the Vs system card game.


:)

kirby canvas curse, via rauble. thanks, this game is really fun.

i really want to buy shadow of the colossus after seeing it in action, but i may have to just settle for rental.

and mario kart DS will be bought at all costs, no matter how broke i am.

Currently playing:

The sleep/work/sleep game.

WoW on the weekends..sometimes.

Hopefully on Nov 22 it will be Xbox 360 lol I hear WoW is more adicting then crack so I might try that but right now I play Guild Wars alot.

Age of Empires III
Call of Duty 2 - much fun

Mario Kart DS
Final Fantasy IV Advance
Silent Hill 3

this is the most active gaming i've been in quite some time.

I'm playing some Battlefront on the PS, but on the Comp I still can't get over Civ III... I went out and bought IV, but wouldn't you know it, my 6 year old computer that hasn't been upgraded can't play it? (I know I'm a dumbass)

Psychonauts on PC... mmm

golden axe and sonic the hedgehog games with a genesis emulator

I've been getting back into gaming as of late (especially PC gaming since I have a new 'puter that will run anything out there).

In the last three months I have played and beat on PC: Prince of Persia Two Thrones, F.E.A.R., Splinter Cell Chaos Theory and LotR BFME II. Looking forward to Elder Scrolls IV: The Oblivion! Game looks sweet. Also playing Battlefield 2 sometimes with some of my old UT clanners. Thinking about getting into either GTA: SA or Max Payne 2, next.

On GBA (via GameCube's GBA Player), I am working on the Castlevania: Double Pack in between work/school/and whatever PC games I'm playing.

I play CS occasionaly on this 800mhz 64 ram computer. I'm building a new comp but I'll probably only play CS as far as games go. I played Castlevania for the DS at my friends over the week and got 50%, with some puzzle fighter, and he bought MGS subsistence which is also cool.

Metroid Prime Hunters
 

Metroid Prime Hunters (DS) - Very sick game on wi-fi ... anyone else get this yet?

i was considering getting it, but i think with the limited money i have, tetris ds may take priority.

Yeah Tetris DS looks pretty awesome. I'm a big fan of Hunters though and I really recommend it, but I haven't played Tetris so I can't say it's better.

Tetris is better.

Have you played both Raub?

yeah! i haven't played much of hunters, just the new demo.

Alright then, I'll have to take your word for it.

Sid Meier's Pirates!

I love pirates! I love pretending to be a pirate, practicing piracy, pillaging and various other lawless acts. Now I can do it without breaking the law, and back in a time when it was acceptable! ARRRRRRgh!

Yeah, i played the game a little at a friends house last week and found it online, gonna install it sometime over the next few days and play it a little more, seemed pretty fun...

castlevania: dawn of sorrow (thanks to an overly generous friend who insisted i borrow it)

My WoW account is set to expire May 8th..plan on giving a little away to a friend, but keeping the mass of gold and gear on my character just incase I decided to check out the burning crusade, i've grown tired of the game..thank god.

Still playing a little Oblivion, also messing around with a free fps-mmo-something.. http://www.gunzonline.com , it's actually kinda fun.

I beat Condemned the other day (decent game, never could get into the graphical style all that much, though) and I started playing Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth yesterday. Got about 45 minutes into it.. it's good so far, and even though I've hardly scratched the surface, I'm really digging the story. Makes me want to read the books that the game is based off of.

Anyone read the Cthulhu crap by H.P. Lovecraft?

IGN's preview of the game:

beat we love katamari yesterday... good stuff. now i'm working on kingdom hearts.

i'm in the middle of playing Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros 3.

this is the first time i'm actually trying to beat this game by playing the whole way through. (stupid parents being too cheap to buy me mario 3 when it originally came out)

and goddammit, are some of these later levels ever hard. fuck!

I rediscovered my pogo.com acct...I want to win some moneh.

syphon filter dark mirror. ohhh ya. bout time a good game came out for PSP

castlevania: dawn of sorrow is my best fucking friend right now. too bad i'm goddamn lost.

street fighter alpha anthology

zach, where are you lost at?

umm, just beat some fucking clown dude with freddy krueger claws and i got a time stopping soul, but i haven't seen a use for it yet. and it seems like i've explored everything i can at the moment.

i would like to be playing:

i'm sure it's been at least ten years. gotta do a little ebay searching.

dude. dude. that game has the best fuckin music ever.
