Do you like aion?

It's pretty cool so far. I'm level 8 so I haven't gotten my wings yet and the weekend beta ends tomorrow at 2 pm. Darn. The next one better start up soon!

Drew, if you're playing SR2 on 360 hit me up for some co-op missions. Each of the gangs has an additional Achievements for completing their story missions in co-op, and there's a 100 pt. Achievement for completing ALL story missions in co-op. Scenester, Sho Nuff and I are all working toward it.

Finally finished the HULK. I accidentally finished the main (General Ross and Talbot) story on Saturday, and briefly thought I'd cheated myself out of the 150+ GS for finishing off the Enclave. In the end, since I can't get the IRON MAN Save Data-related Achievement, I'm not going to bother with the collectibles and gold medal scores on all the minigames.

I'm at 805 GS for the game, and that's all I'll ever bag unless I find IRON MAN for less than 10 bucks during a stateside trip later down the line. Ironically, I actually got the "Shell Head" Achievement by beating a Stark Industries Hulkbuster Armor troop while at maximum Threat Level, but still need the damned Save Data to unlock "Patron of the Arts" Achievement, which itself also controls the "Unlocked All Upgrades" Achievement. Jerks.

The game's by no means a 5 or 6 out-of-10 as a lot of places gave it. It's a low 7 that could have been an 8 with some serious tuning time added, and removal of a couple of bad design decisions negated. Finishing it has popped me past 20K gamerscore, so I'm having a hard time complaining too much about it.

Its awesome! Hit me up this weekend, Lyte if youd like to do a stage or two? We can also play some Garou... Ive ordered a SF4 pad so hopefully Play Asia delivers the goods soon! (Amazon wont ship it overseas grrrr)

Im sick.... AGAIN  :-\ So Ive been chilling out and playing some rpgs, making progress in Phantasy Star 2, but really need to print out a copy of the maps that came with the cart originally. These dungeons are complex!

Also picking away at Persona 3. According to Mitsuru im '4 shadows to go' so not sure if thats the end or whatever. around 30 hours in and its summer vacation. I dig the game but its getting a bit old. Im looking forward to finishing it so I can start on Persona 4

On Osha, the PVE server. Got a level 10 Mage/3 Priest so far.

And the game is AWESOME for a Free MMO. I LOVE the skill system. It's level based leveling, but having a skill based advancement instead of talents. Kinda like combining UO and WoW style leveling.

Going back to Sacred 2 after getting frustrated with Fight Night 4. I can outbox any of the AI bastards until the 8th or 9th round, when they always manage to get a second wind and KO me with a counter. I've gotten up to 14th rank on pro, but I fear my messing up of the training mini-games early on has insured an early retirement for my boxer. I'll probably gun for a belt and call it quits.

Getting back into Fallout 3 with Point Lookout now available.  Still didn't finish Broken Steel or The Pitt.

Wanted to play BF1943 but can't log on.  Onto Level 37 in N+ and the game is starting to be a real bitch.

Still playing MLB the Show and Infamous on PS3.  Hopefully Trine is out on PSN tomorrow.

I may try out pvp tomorrow since I just read up on it and I love the reputation system.

I love hoe reviews bash it for being a wow clone while ignoring things like the skill system and how content isn't locked behind microtransactions. IGN bashed RoM but praised FreeRealms. In FR you have classes, quests, and minigames that are locked away unless you pay. Runes is completely free. All of the paid stuff is really cosmetic.

I'm trying to fit in 2 fights a night in FNR4. I'm finding some of the same stuff upsetting that Muckhole mentioned earlier, but I'll fight on through legacy mode.
I just picked up Mirrors Edge(360) for $18. I'll probably pop that in this weekend.
Playing a lot of MLB:The Show too. My AAA team just advanced to the 2nd round of the playoffs last night. :rock

I tried the 360 demo and it was pretty fun.  Only thing I don't like too much is that they seem to have CoD sections where it's about shooting, but the straight up shooting gameplay isn't too great.  No big deal.  I'm more worried that there isn't a PC demo and I want to get the PC version.

* 1000'd VP Party Animals, would like to 1000 original VP
* Broke 50 mil on Raiden Fighters - feel good about that, 100 mil might be a bit of a stretch, at least i am 900+ on it
* Finished Strong Bad Episode 3 on Wii for some reason
* Playing Rainbow Six Vegas 2 online, just need to kill people and reach Elite, got all the annoying achievements out of the way from boosting, can definitely see myself 1000 this game down the road now
* Dorked on Dragon Quest 2 SNES on Wii emulator
* Overlord 2 -should- be here today (sat.) so... that

These days I usually give myself a time limit of a couple of hours before I give in. That's after doing every conceivable clicking, combining and observing I could think of. Usually the solutions end up being a weird glitch I wasn't aware of (screens not panning when they should in Sam & Max), or incredibly obscure (putting skin on a manhole), or painfully obvious (trying to find a sparkplug in Fate of Atlantis).

Burnout shouldn't look different from 360 version, since PS3 was their lead SKU. I think I like Burnout 3 the best, but Paradise is crazy cool. I'm going to go back to it now that they've put in the restart feature.

I'm playing N+ after getting it for half off this week. This game gives me crazy nostalgia for my Apple ][ years of gaming, even though the resolution and physics are, uh, a little ahead of what I had then. N+ is bitch-ass hard for my aged reflexes though. I'm on Episode 3, Level 0, and canNOT time the jumps needed to follow their path. Man, this is hard.

Played some more UFC, still happy to play and lose if they other guy is not a superman-punch spamming, high-speed elbows from clinch distance bastard. Most people play well, no DNFs this weekend, and even got one guy who called me some nasty names in a post-fight message to player-match rematch me, and he ended up politely thanking me for telling him how to improve his ground game.

Played the FUEL demo, and was bored before finishing my first race. It's pretty, and big, too bad they forgot to include gameplay.

Just about to hit some Red Faction or Saints Row 2 before calling it a night; my Monday starts sooner than your guys'.

I dabbled in PGR4 but didn't really do much besides spam easy achievements.

The last 2-3 weeks I've really just played Bad Company. I'm 3 levels away from maxing out my online rank, got most of the other multiplayer achievements legitimately. I'm halfway through my hard mode/collectables run. One of the few games I'll get over 900 on.

Was playing the Wii Punch Out and DKC2 on VC at my friend's house... never played DKC2 before, I like it a lot better than the first so far.

Today after I clean the pool I will be either on the bowl shitting my brains out (ate too much greasy food at Chili's last night  :-\), or playing more Majora's Mask - up to the water temple and the game is definitely warming up on me.

I played San Andreas for the first time in years (before GTA4) and the game is so awesome.  I was starting cut GTA4 some slack after Lost and the Damned, which was great, but playing San Andreas again reminds me why I was so disappointed.
