What are you playing? (Nov Edition)

Dickmcsavage

I bought WOW about 2 weeks ago and its been eating up a god awful amount of my time. What makes things worse is that a few of my close mates got it at the same time which means Im doing alot of my socialising on TS. FFS!

And my girlfriend. Dont talk to me about its effecting our relationship! I felt like the biggest idiot the other day when she rang me and all I had to say to her was 'Eh, were doing this dungeon thing in WOW so I can't really talk right now'. Im using her credit card to pay for the monthly payments so good luck to that!

Lol... I'm on a break from WoW at the moment, and I'm really just not that bothered with many other games because all I want to do is get back to playing WoW!
*is addicted SO bad*

Mario & Luigi : Partner in Time (DS).
Really great game, suits me down to the ground. About 22hours in though and I think I'm approaching the home stretch, which means I need to start looking for a new game

...seems very difficult to find any decent DS/GBA games in town (I'm thinking any of the Zeldas, Advance Wars, something like that). Almost got Final Fantasy 4 Advance in Smyths today but it was out of stock, despite having about five boxes on the shelf.

I'm playing Madden 2006 on XBox. I only buy the Madden games every three years, not worth it every year. Also still playing my favourite levels on Halo, that never gets old. And just finished Brothers in Arm: Road to Hill 30, only picked it up pre-owned a few weeks ago, tis a great game, much better than CoD and MoH.

At the minute I'm playing Dark Crusade and started both System Shock 2 and Freespace 2 again within the last few days.

All classics as far as I'm concerned. New campaing in DC is super addictive.

Freespace! What a classic game series. My sister bought me a pack with the the two of them in it a few years ago. She doesnt know anything about games and just picked it up randomly. Little did she know that it would turn out to be one of my favourite PC games ever! If theres anyone there who hasn't played it and doesn't mind playing a game that doesn't have cutting edge graphics, then I strongly urge you to get it. Sure it would only be a tenner these days!

PC - Myth - and oldie and a classic!!!
Amiga 500 - Gods ( damn straight i still have it, only a fool would not hold onto it for classic Sensible Soccer )
PS2 - Scarface, PES6, Soul Calibre 3

Yup Freespace 2 is probably close to my favourite game, think its on underdogs now and theres a mod that gives it more up to date graphics. No excuses really!

started playing Mario & Luigi - partners in time again last night
looks set to be one of my fave DS games, I could've easily kept playing it until 3 in the morning if my battery hadn't died:p

What's the story with this? Why can't i get Mario 3 or Yoshi's Island or the Minish Cap in any of the regular shops, but i can get more Ice Age games than you could shake a stick at?

I can't shop on t'internet (it's best that I don't have a credit card, you see) so I'm finding it very hard to get good games for the old GBA. Pain in the arse.

Incidentally, I've just entered the second dungeon in Dark World. And now I've got a big mallet, too.

Just DoD. Might start a WoWing again though. Resist!

Just wondering is bully (or canes canem edit) any good? Rockstar haven't had much success with their other ventures using the GTA engine. Manhunt & The Warriors comes to mind.

Yeah Bully is excellent. Clever, original use of sandbox gaming for a change. Pretty long too. Around 10 hours in and only 30% of the game complete :cool:
Nothing beats drive by eggings on a bike

Goodshape

Any chance Bully will get a PC release?

...and why is it called Canes Canem Edit over here? Crap name even if they did have to change it for some reason.

It's meant to be the slogan of Bullworth, the school in the game. If you direct your attention over here you shall see Canis Canem Edit under the coat of arms, and it's on the American box art too.
But seriously pooey name.

Not really. There may be method in their madness – for example, anti-marketing to a particular grouping of people who think young Jonnie shouldn’t be playing a game called Bully. Did somebody shout DIVERSIONARY TACTICS?

Canis Canem what? Oh, silly computer games with silly names.

Finished off all the Resident Evil games that i have last night (0, 3 and 4 as 1 is in a friends house) and Wind Waker is booting up

Yeah Bully is quite the game alright, have it about a week now and about 20% done I think, been playing quite alot too. Very similar to GTA but not old at all, works well with the school setting. Deffo recommend it!

I dunno, i quite like the name. Not that mad about the game itself.
