    What with the few weeks a year I get to actually enjoy a few games uninterrupted approaching rather quickly I thought I'd get a seasonal discussion going. Can't wait to give metroid 3 (Wii) a bash - the gf wouldn't let me buy it over the last month or so. Also Mario Galaxy, played a bit of it the other week and dying to play it. :)

    Uncharted, Mass Effect, CoD 4, Halo 3 and hopefully finish off PGR4.

    Might revist some games too on the run up to Christmas to keep me going.

    Barring some unforseen circumstance...
    Mass Effect, Metroid Prime 3, Assassin's Creed.
    Ye lucky dogs with the experiences of Orange Box and Super Mario Galaxy awaiting you! Prepare for happiness!

    And also just picked up FF12, and doubt I'll have played through that before the 25th. [controversial] and would you know it, but Im actually very much enjoying it [/controversial]

    Not too sure actually... I'll prolly only bring my Wii down home with me, so collecting the rest of the stars in Mario Galaxy and getting around to finishing Metroid Prime (still stuck on the last boss battle)
    Ordered Drake's Fortune for myself, so I'll get stuck into that after Crimbo, and I have Jade Empire to get started on as well (Mass Effect rekindled my love for Bioware games...)

    Ah you've got a good bit to go. You're about a third or half the way through.


    Hopefully I'll be playing Blacksite and Unreal Tournament 3. I'm currently playing STALKER, so that too.

    Hoping to get back into Metroid Prime 3. Also want to finish a few RPG's that are waiting around half finished such as Blue Dragon and Odin Sphere and I'm crawling through FF3 on the DS at the moment. Really want to get back into Jeanne D'Arc but with my new R4 I just couldn't be arsed charging up the PSP.

    There will be a few Scene It sessions on the 360 with my family.

    I'll be going back to Bioshock to finish it off.
    I got Tomb Raider Anniversary on the cheap yesterday too, so thats another one.
    I think that'll do it.

    The second Zelda Christmas in a row, Nintendo are spoiling me :)

    Oh yeah, I've still got that to go back to... I might wait until the 1.2 patch comes out though, as apparently that will improve the loading and saving times. (loading times aren't too bad for me, but save times really started to piss me off given how frequently I quicksave)

    Finish Assassin's Creed, Bioshock and Halo 3.
    Then try and start Mass Effect and give PGR4 a proper go.
