    Alone in the Dark. Got it cheap in GAME and it's a strange game that I love and hate in equal measures, there are so many good and original ideas in there that are often let down by some of the most basic game design oversights.

    Halo 3 remains constantly in the 360 thanks to it's amazing multi-player - Grifball anyone? And I picked up Folklore for the PS3 this afternoon cheap so I'll give that a go.

    Grifball anyone?
    I've been dying to play this for ages. Do you play it in custom games or where? I saw on Bungie.net something about weekends where there are hoppers for it.

    Finished San Andreas this evening, despite it saying I only have about 63% of the game complete. Having gone looking for all that missing percentage in previous gta games I think I'll give it a miss. Gears of war is in the post so will tear into that when it arrives. Been a very productive Summer so far ;)

    Absolutely recommended also, 27.99 on play too. Bargain.
    Make sure you can spare at least an hour every time you play, the spacing of save points is one of my only complaints with this game

    Like a poster above, I finally went back to GTA IV last weekend and finished it off. Lovely game. Picked up the first Condemned for cheap in Tesco a few weeks back so gonna pop that in next. Also, been bashing away with Civ Rev on the DS and wondering if I should get it for the grown up consoles?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭A-Trak

    Have had a hankering for the Point n' Click genre of late

    - Currently making my way through Secret Files: Tunguska on the DS and its not bad.

    - And have fired up Fahrenheit again on the PC. Visuals are dated now but narrative and soundtrack are superb :)

    Will be playing FFIVDS as soon as it arrives on Sat (i hope), so much finish Tunguska quick.

    Haven't bought anything new in a while. I replayed the Half Life series recently, and played around with Tomb Raider Legend and Anniversary again. I mostly stick to Team Fortress 2 these days. Can't wait for Half Life 2: Episode 3.

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,283 ✭✭✭Ross_Mahon


    I got C&C Generals deluxe edition for really cheap, So i just finished the normal campaign and ill move onto the expansion pack soon.

    I play every game on the xbox live, depends what mood I'm in, if i just want to chill out, ill play GTA IV on free mode ripping it around in a fast car. And if i want some competitive gaming, Ill play gears of war or halo 3.

    Just finished playing, or should that be watching, the brilliant MGS4, lovely stuff.
    Now I am turning my attention back to GTA4, Burnout Paradise and Gran Turismo 5 Prologue.
    My attentions should soon be further diverted soon, as the workmen will soon be finished putting in the stairs to my games room, and I can play all my retro goodies once again, I had a good session on the Vectrex Asteroids clone and it's brilliant, forget Asteroids on XBLA, get Vecteroids and be happy!


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,480 ✭✭✭projectmayhem


    PC: Team Fortress 2... it's taken over any addiction i had to DOD or CSS, combined.

    360: Getting back into halo3 and mass effect

    PS3: Battlefield, GT5P and back to FIFA amidst all the 09 hype


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,534 ✭✭✭FruitLover


    Never finished Psychonauts, so I'm doing that now. Same with GTA Vice City

    Good craic, quite Super Metroid-esque.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,779 ✭✭✭Spunge


    Ive been playing a lot of everquest 2 (too much).
    And a PC game called Mount & Blade, if anyone knows it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,969 ✭✭✭robby^5


    Just started playing Battlefield 2142 again recently out of boredom last weekend, actually really enjoying it this time around. When I first bought it I quite after a few weeks, but they've since patched it a few times and it's actually a pretty decent game.
