I'm in the Tokyo so no real gaming for me until at least tuesday night when I go back home.  About to go pick up a DSi though, all hail the emperor :bow DC :bow2

I picked up Fallout 3 yesterday and am really really really really REALLY tempted to go back for Motorstorm 2 and maybe Dead Space too.

Get Dead Space.  It's your kind of game.

Motorstorm probably sucks though.

I liked it.  Perfect bargin bin game.  For the price it's selling for people don't expect much and then wind up enjoying it whereas if you bought it for $60 your appreciation for the title would be somewhat diminished.

Mother 3 - I think I'm nearing the end but I've been dragging my feet trying to finish this game.  Not sure why I keep playing; it is barely above average.

Thought about getting an Xbox 360 with either Midnight Club 4 or Dead Space this weekend but considering all the money I've been spending on political contributions and with an exam coming up next week, I'll probably hold off for a while longer.

You down with LBP? Yeah you know me
Who's down with LBP? All the SackLadies!  :-*

I found a Pac-Man level, a Mega Man level, a decent Super Mario Bros. 1-1 recreation, and even a Mirror's Edge level. The floaty jumping is okay once you get used to it. If it's one thing I learned from video games, it's that moon gravity = awesome. See: San Francisco Rush, San Francisco Rush 2049.  :-*

I need to grind a bit in fallout3 so i can head out to where i need to go for my next quest. I like taking out the raider encampments :rock

Played Motorstorm Pacific Rift up to rank 2. So far i love it - its largely more motorstorm but the stages feel more complicated and more full of detail.

Finished the story missions on Saints Row 2. Been doing  the activities with a freind on co-op. So. Much. Fun.

Just finished Fable 2 - was a bit meh, had a 'is that it?' sort of feeling at the end.

Been playing Far Cry 2, it's getting a bit tedious now - driving and backtracking alot,  doing the same thing over and over  :-\.

About to start Fallout 3, though I wish I had Dead Space now, bit burnt out on open world games.

Oh come on, Far Cry 1 was amazing. Better than Half-Life 2 imo. The editor of PC Zone UK thought so too, we're like the only 2 people in the world though, I think.

I dumped it (with GA Beast Rider and a bunch of older stuff) and picked up Fallout 3.  Might go back and get Motorstorm 2 too.  There's just too much out or coming out to bother with the stuff you don't like or find mediocre.

I'm at about 70% in Saint's Row 2, so I'm gonna make some progress there and hopefully finish the story missions.  Then it's back to Dead Space, but I gotta start a new game and use more ammo/less health so I don't keep dying.  I also just got Fallout 3 (PS3 version :( ) so I'd like to look at that.  Oh, and I'm gonna replay the shit out of the Mirror's Edge demo!

I'm about halfway through chapter 12 in Ninja Gaiden 2.  Looked ahead on a guide and it looks like pretty much every boss gets resurrected until the end of the game.  I'm mostly sticking with the DC/TF right now until I get it upgraded in chapter 14.

I just finished NG2 and there's something seriously disturbing, I have the highest end-game karma score of anybody on my friends list.  I'm not going to say any names and I don't know if that includes people that didn't finish the game but I doubt it.  Maybe the game just unfairly rewards the strategies that cause the most obliterations.  dual-katanas>scythe for that and I always DC/TF against ninjas and medium sized enemies.  The difficulty felt just right for me but I guess the karma system might favor button-mashers.

For some reason I accidentally took a nap on that bed by the bridge and my nap got disturbed by all 4 of the super mutants crashing over the bridge. Hadnt even wiped the sleep out of my eyes before the first one was on top of me swattin me with a nailboard.

OK It wasnt an accident, I should have planted some mines before I went to sleep...I just really needed a nap and I thought I had more time.

Haven't played shit really, just some Rhythm Tengoku Gold.  I re-bought Ninja Gaiden DS and Bangai-O Spirits (they were cheap), and might get Space Invaders Extreme back too.  That's about it for all the DS games I sold off after I got an R4 that I would want back.
