TEKKEN 5.
King of Fighters 2002/2003

and on Monday I'll buy Mortal Kombat Deception for GC and Star Fox Assault.
 
Right now I'm addicted to Halo 2 on xbox live. I'm also playing wario ware: touched on my commute to work, also eagerly awaiting DMC3.
 
Nothing new until I can get DMC3 so~oldies but goodies.

Animal Crossing
PSO GC
Shining Force RotDD
Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo

Replaying Dark Cloud 2, up to Balance Valley. I forgot how much I loved this game...

Again, rumours of its quality demise were greatly exaggerated. I'm lovin' it more than GT3, and GT3 was already tied for my favorite racing game of all time. So I believe GT4 will now be replacing that slot. F-Zero GX and GT4 - now my two favorite racing games of all time :)
 
Halo 2 XBL
Res Evil 4
Strangers Wrath

And soon

Splinter Cell Chaos Theory
Dead or Alive Ultimate

Trying to think what RPG to get, Its out of Star Ocean 3, Shadow Hearts Covenent and Xenosaga (which one has random enemies)

decided to wait on DMC3 and buy Gods of War
 
Earning my B License on Gran Turismo 4 reminded me that I can't stand that series at all (haven't played it since 2...).

That's getting sold!

Other than that, I haven't had a lot of time for gaming the last few days. I beat Minish Cap this week and have been playing some old NES games on PocketNES & have started getting back into One-Line Puzzle.
 
Still playing Resident Evil 4.

I've already finished it, I'm just playing Mercenaries a lot, and planning to go through the main story mode again.
 
I'm trying desperately to play GT4, but it freezes up on me every 10 minutes or so. When that happens, I go to Klonoa 2: Dream Champ Tournament for GBA.
 
Counterstrike 1.6/CZ (PC)
Pokemon Trading Card Game (GBC)
Mario 64 DS (DS)
Advance Guardian Heroes (GBA)
Dr. Mario (GBA)

Pokemon TCG is very awesome. A DS version would top my most wanted. The system is PERFECT for it.
 
Just playing Wario Ware Touched, like I was two weeks ago. And I'll probably be playing it until Yoshi arrives since I lack the patience to play console games at this point. My roots in the mid-80s score-driven games has finally caught up to me. I find it far more satisfying than any narrative driven game I've played in the last ten years.
 
still working through re4, however gradually. it's fantastic, but i don't want to play it for more than an hour or two at a stretch, and not every day. i don't have a hard time getting back to it after an absence either; i've killed a lot of games that way.

i've also been playing gradius gaiden, which may be even better than gradius v, and i say that as a credentialed treasure fanboy. i have a working ps1 again, after quite a long time, so i don't have to worry about the massive slowdown you get in level 7 if you're using a ps2. not that i've been troubling level 7 lately. whee.

next up is dmc 1, as a preparation for dmc 3. capcom rox.
 
Good to see you've temporarily dislodged yourself from that Cave crap. ;) Gradius Gaiden is one of the best shooters burned to silicon.

Tekken 5 is all I care to play since I purchased it. DMC3 is next, but I'm in no rush to break into it next week. I just started nailing Heihachi's 10-hitters somewhat consistently...

I picked that up last night, and I'm loving it so far.

Reactivated my account last night, again, I'm loving it. I was actually very happy to see my level 57 BLM still intact even after being inactive for nearly four months. But man, it's very weird playing the starts of the FF series, and one of the latest editions at the same time.
 
Ys 6 for PS2 and Cave Story/Doukutsu Monogatari for PC. The latter, if there's anybody who HASN'T tried this game yet, well this game absolutely kicks ass. It's so much fun to play, there's multiple paths to go to, and an awesome oldskool style of graphics/music. Music is kinda like Megaman.

Impressions plz. Trailer didn't look half bad.

Tons of good ideas but a complete mess execution-wise. Game is pretty terrible but addicting. It's kinda like a psuedo action game/rpg. You have 2d exploration parts where you go to bars and people's houses and talk with them and then you have action parts where you shoot everything. You get exp and then you use that to buy rpg-like skills (blind, confusion) which you assign to L1/L2 and can switch between assigned skills with the d-pad. Game falls apart in motion due to a bad camera and the worst difficulty balance ever. I'm thinking there is a specific way to play the game yet no one has figured it out from the boards I've been to. Not a single person could pass the 1st boss on normal difficulty so everyone jumped to easy (which is still pretty impossible by the 2nd boss) and then jumped again to very easy.

Thanks, the camera did look pretty uneven in the trailer, but I couldn't tell if they were just going for some cinematic angles during the gunfights or if it really just blindsided the gamer with such fast cuts. So....very easy eh? Sounds rubbish from what I can cull of your description.
 
Just finished Panzer Dragoon Saga yesterday in 15:59 (way too short and easy for my tastes, but a beatiful game with a phenomenal combat system).

Now I'm unsure whether to finish Metal Gear Solid 3 and Prince of Persia WW or play one of the following RPGS: Skies of Arcadia Legend, Shadow Hearts, Grandia.
 
Metal Gear Solid 3. I finally got it and it's amazing. THE GAF WAS RIGHT.
I'm playing VF4 evo again, now that I have a stick. I'm going to stay with the game this time and see if I can, like, not suck at a fighting game for once.
A little Winning Eleven 8, too.

Hows the music? Mitsuda is doing it right? Or at least collaborating from what I remember?
