    Kingdom Hearts (PS2)
    Ico (PS2)
    Viewtiful Joe 2 (GC)

    Donkey Konga 2 and Tales of Symphonia on the Gamecube, Metroid Prime Pinball (too addictive for my liking) and Phoenix Wright on the DS.

    Hope to get back into full swing in Castlevania: DOS once I have the latter complete.

    at them mo. Just got a DS and its the only game I have, tho I have Advance Wars on the way, as well as Tekken 5 ( from play-asia.com only bout 12euro ) for the PS2 which I don't have access to (cos cant get it to work on Kiwi tvs). But it would be WE9 all the way if I could play it.

    Not as good single player as the original, but probably the best multi player strategy game out there. If you're ever up for a game there are a few Irish players still online pretty regularly, look out for unwashedvillager and HaVoC. It's got a very starcraftish community though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,892 ✭✭✭madrab

    jdoom: hell revealed (droooool sooo much nostalgia)
    classic doom (doom shareware using doom3 prettyness)

    PSP:
    GTA: Liberty City Stories: Had it ages now but the multiplayer will never get old.
    Broken Sword: SCUMMVM is great, going back to one of my all time favourite games. Just a pity it doesn't support sleep mode.

    DS:
    Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time: Hilarious script, gameplay can be very frustrating at times though!

    Xbox:
    Jade Empire: Taking up most of my time at the moment though I've almost completed it I think. I don't like it as much as KOTOR, the fighting seems to make 'how fast can you press A' override any effort you put into developing your character. Story and puzzles are very solid though.

    X360:
    Fight Night demo: for showing off purposes, though the gameplay is growing on me more and more, its great in two player and I'm starting to enjoy playing the computer too
    Mutant Storm: Fun in two player, why doesn't it support four players!!!
    CoD2: For multiplayer, although the campaign is still fun to dip into
    NFS: MW: Near the end of this, the police chases are getting very frantic! Racing can get a bit boring and easy at times but the police chases could be a game by themselves.

    PC:
    WoW: Still having ocassional relapses, where I log on with my level 60 character and chat and dos around, can't remember the last time I actually did a quest or an instance. Feign death, a pink flamingo pet and newbie areas are a great mix!

    PS2
    We Love Katamari: Was playing it until I gave the PS2 to my friend to beat MGS3

    Gamecube
    Baten Kaitos: Excellent traditional JRPG. Brilliant battle system.

    Xbox
    Super Monkey Ball Deluxe: Missed out on GC games. Bit of a bargain for 20 yoyos
    Gun: Finished it this weekend (in a weekend :( ). Great fun but just far too short. Would have been a GTA beater if it was about 5 times longer and bigger.

    PC
    Warcraft 2: Beyond the Dark Portal: Finished Starcraft Broodwar and now back into some classic Blizzard goodness. Shame my PC is out of action for a few more days.

    DS:
    Pheonix Wright: Love it. Makes my bus journey to college bareable
    Warioware Twisted: Best Warioware yet and far better than the DS game.

    PSP
    Gathering Dust: a bit of Wipeout Pure when I could be bothered.

    Saturn:
    Castlevania: Nocturne in the moonlight: Was enjoying it until my transformer broke so no Saturn for me until I get a new one. Symphony of the Night is better. There is more slowdown and some truly awful mesh transparencies in the Saturn version. It does have extra areas on the map but they aren't all that interesting.

    playing Gun and PD0 on the 360 a lot lately

    Bit of Ridge Racers and Virtua Tennis on the psp too

    Trauma Center: Under the Knife - Fun game... but it really makes you feel guilty when you fail.

    Metroid Pinball - A lot more fun than it sounds. Great multiplayer mode too.

    Animal Crossing : Wide World - Ah... so much fun... I'm currently saving for my second house upgrade. Oh.. and I even spent new years eve with my animal friends... there were fireworks and everything.

    I'm also playing Prince of Persia :The Two Thrones on the Xbox... but haven't had enough time to play it really.

    I also got Project Gotham Racing 3 for the Xbox 360 today... so hopefully I'll have time to give that a go later today.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,482 ✭✭✭RE*AC*TOR


    Playing Castlevania Aria of Sorrow and Metroid Fusion on my new Gameboy Micro.
    Playing Phoenix Wright, Mario Kart, Animal Crossing on my DS. Don't have enough time to play all the games I want to.
    My xbox and gamecube are very unloved at the moment.

    Oh also playing Civ4 on the PC.

    Traded Project Gotham in yesterday, just really couldn't get into it

    should have held off on buying a racer till RR6 came out

    Well I'm not a big racer fan either. I picked it up cheaply enough on boards.ie though, so I'll give it a go. I used to enjoy Metropolis Street Racer on the Dreamcast and this is really just an evolution of it I assume... although I've never played any of the Project Gotham games.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,368 ✭✭✭thelordofcheese


    GC:
    Tales of symphonia:
    still playing it, i tend to dip in and out once and while, something about the game never makes it hold my interest for very long, but every now and again i get an urge to plough onwards.

    DS:
    Sonic Rush:
    almost finished just have one last Special stage to clear. Dunno why i'm bothering though, really didn't like this game, there were too many "instant death" sections

    Advance Wars DS:
    Finally got past the annoying forest mission, now it's time for the one with the two giant volcanos. And War room is great.
