    Tales of Symphonia, pretty good I'm about 20 hours through and as retro said the battle system is excellent, really refreshing compared to turn based slowness in every other RPG like this I've played, and no random encounters = spooge! Only gripe is that there's no FMV's whatsoever which is a bit of a letdown when you're used to the FF games :(

    Its rather good isn't it. It started slow with a really predictable story. However I'm 15 hours through it and now loving every minute of it. It only really gets going 6 hours into the game and the simplistic story has turned into something very interesting and compelling. I'm addicted now :D

    PS2: Deus Ex (Heard good things, and was in town today)

    Oops, so you didn't hear that the good one was the original one on the PC? Invisible war on the consoles is pathetic in comparison.

    did they release invisible war on the consoles?
    the original deus ex was ported to the ps2 anyway, i guess thats the one he's talking about.

    nearly finished metroid prime 2 for the third time now (just after getting the power bomb)
    think i'll start a hard mode save after this...

    Cube:
    Tales of Symphonia; great stuff, fantastic battle system as has been mentioned. Haven't got the hang of the unison attacks though.
    Metroid prime 2; only about 30% in
    Pikmin 2; wonderful game
    F zero GX (Not really my type of game, but good to have for 4 player insomnia sessions).
    Wind waker; put it on to show off the shiny prettiness to a friend, started a new game again :rolleyes:
    Master quest.

    PC: Farcry
    Doom 3 (bought to test the prettiness of my new machine, hasn't been put into my machine in months)
    Hitman 2

    PS2: Just finished ICO, amazing stuff, I'm going to play it again to hear what Yorda has to say for herself... er "young lady...?"
    GTA:SA on and off, whenever I need to vent some violent juice.

    Slobbering at the mouth waiting for REsi 4 and Star fox assault. Also going to pick up Beyond good and evil and thief 3 from play soon (have the cash, need the credit card access :( )

    PC: World of Warcraft.

    It's actually taking all the time I used to spent on various games. My Gamecube would be gathering dust if my girlfriend wasn't playing MarioKart. The only other thing I've played since I loaded it up is Day of Defeat and nearly nothing of that. It's fúcking brilliant by the way. :)

    Games bought and being ignored due to WoW: UT2004, HL2, CS:S, Prince of Persia SOT, Grand Theft Auto: VC and amazingly I've only played about an hour of Rome Total War since I got it. It looks great but it's not WoW.
