    Christmas was a good time for me and games but exams are stopping me from playing them. So many games just sitting there.

    GC - Mario Power Tennis
    GBA - Metroid Fusion

    Picked up Zero Mission in GAME the other day for €12, nice.


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,928 ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby


    Zero Mission is sooooo good... short but oh so sweet.

    Lost In Blue [DS]
    How are you finding it? I was really enjoying it... although it's actually a pretty tough game.

    I got completely stuck in it though has I just couldn't get the hang of the furniture building in it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,277 ✭✭✭DiscoStu


    PS2:
    Gran Turismo 4 - Played it to death last year but i have a hdtv and surround sound now so its 1080i GT awesomeness.
    Dragon Quest 8 - Oh so twee but charming.

    Xbox:
    Pariah - €13 no other reason :/

    PSP:
    Liberty City Stories - What can I say really? Its actually got my using my psp.

    DS/GBA:

  • Registered Users Posts: 861 ✭✭✭yawnstretch


    Zero Mission! What a great game - although I still think Fusion was the better game ;)

    I really like it. The building is tough all right, I miss the U and O shapes the most. As you do more, you get used to it.

    Sometimes I think the game is really restrictive though. I'd like to up and leave and go off exploring without bothering to feed Keith or the girl, but alas, it's not possible and you've to plan your exploration a few days ahead.

    PC: CIV 4...help I am addicted!!!!!

    PS2: Resident Evil 4

    Though CIV 4 is consuming all my time at the moment. It is amazing.

    I was playing Gunstar Super Heroes but I'm not enjoying it as much as I thought I would. It just doesn't have the danger **** excitement of the original or any of the best games in the same genre. Boss battles don't last long enough and some parts are really frustrating which is a sin in a genre that should make every death your own fault.

    I have to say Condemned is one of the "better" launch titles of the 360's, this game is atmospheric and scary as hell(probably one of the scariest iv played) blocking melee attacks can be arkward sometimes but what i love about this game is that guns are scarce in this game and you cant find ammo, so you literally have to use the enviroment as a weapon. Two alternate endings which are mediocre but do not disapoint. I would recommend this game!

    What im playing at the moment:
    PC
    1) Splinter Cell Chaos Thoery
    2) Worms 4 Mayhem
    3) UFO Aftershock
    4) Neverwinter Nights
    5) When have time im replaying Might and Magic 6,7,8

    PS2
    1) Soulcaliber 3

    XBox 360
    1) Call of duty 2

    mediocrity disappoints me :)

    Resident Evil 4........What a legendary game. Big up Cassie Dineen


  • Registered Users Posts: 27,322 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    Just finished The Warriors (great game) and now I'm ready to get back into Call of Cthuhu after taking a break from it, I picked up Mercenaries for €15 in Virgin so I'll get into that soon and still have a big backlog included The Suffering 2 (I loved the original) to play through. I'm still engrosed in Animal Crossing DS and running through Castlevania DS.

    On the PSP it's all RPGs with Legend of Heroes eating up hours and PoPoLoCrois getting a look in every now and again - dunno what I'll do when Breath of Fire III and Legends of Eternia come out next Friday.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,561 ✭✭✭Rhyme


    Project IGI (PC)... slowly does it
    Prince of Persia: Warrior Within (GC)... underrated, quite fun
    Fire Emblem... um... the one with Roy (GBA)... Roy > Ephraim
    Metroid Prime (GC)... i WILL finish this

    ...oh and XIII in a few days.


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,928 ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby

    DS/GBA:

    Astroboy- fantastic old school platforming
    Gunstar Super Heroes- should have been so much better

    PSP:

    Gathering dust


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,437 ✭✭✭Crucifix


    Recently finished God of War and RE4. I recently tried playing RE4 on professional. Got as far as the bit where the villagers push a big boulder at you, but I just cannot tap 'X' fast enough :( So now I'm playing nothing.

    the NES versions?
    they were good
    2 was my favourite, by the sixth it felt like they were churning them out (EA took notes i assume) but i still completed all of them

    btw, out of any of the nes games i recall they had, hands-down, the best graphics.
