Currently playing The Kingdom of Loathing.

It is an Online mmo-ish text game with stick figures making fun of mmo's.

Just finished playing the Warhammer 40K: Space Marine demo. It's 66% off on Steam this weekend, so I think I'm going to pick it up.

I'm currently playing Mount&Musket. It is a mod for a good game. I recommend looking it up. ^^

So, I bought Space Marine. Best $17 I've ever spent on a video game.

My girlfriend and I are both on a full-blown Lord of the Rings jag, so I picked up LotR Conquest. Hack-and-slash stuff, reminds me of Dynasty Warriors. Flawed, but playable and actually quite fun, which is more than can be said for most movie tie-in games.

Just joined Grand Fantasia. Pretty interesting but seems kinda grindy though.

I've also just completed Skyward Sword, which was kinda weird to play as a lefty, since Link is using is right hand hold the sword and swing.

I'm playing through Chrono Trigger for the first time in ages. Just beat Cross and completely forgot how much I love the story. After I beat that, I'll probably scrounge up the cash for Final Fantasy XIII-2 seeing how XIII was the first FF game I've actually cared about in ages, I might like this one.

Final Fantasy 5, primarily. I still need to finish Uncharted 2 (haven't even played 3 or seen it in action, really. I have put a restriction on myself to not buy anymore games until I've beaten 75% of the ones I have (and, ya know, get a job and get my wife's Visa to come to the US), so I've got a long way to go, especially if I keep getting more free games on PSN Plus like FF5, Tomb Raider, and soon Crysis 2)

I picked up Dwarf Fortress again, but I accidently left it running while I was doing something else...
When I came back my miners had all died from starvation because my mining designations caused their ramp access to collapse, trapping them in the mine.
I'll get the hang of it some day. :P

Psychonauts!

I finished the Milkman Conspiracy level a bit ago, and now I'm into the asylum. Overall, I've enjoyed the game, but not quite as much as I thought I would. It's a solid (if a little plain) platformer, but the writing and jokes are really what's carrying the game. This one's a keeper - you Goth kids/Tim Burton fanboys will eat it up, at least.

Also, Cave Story - I've picked it up again recently, after almost beating it and giving up; I'm up to the second half of the Labyrinth (where you've got Curly with you), and it's a lot harder than I remember it being. Last time I played, it was the best part of the game, but this time, it's just kind of brutal.
We are loved even though we suck.

Go to the video options and uncheck "Half resolution". If they're still fuzzy after that, something's wrong. :x

Switching to the GBA version of FF5. I forgot how horrible the translation was on the PS1 version. Mostly Farris and her pirate talk. Ugh... And the GBA version (first exposure to it, now) has a GREAT translation.

I've played a lot of games since I was last here, but I'm back to talk about one...

Barkley, Shut Up and Jam! Gaiden: Chapter One of the Hoopz Barkley Saga

A JRPG set in a post-apocalyptic Proto Neo New York in which basketball players are hunted down by the government for fear that one of them might perform a Chaos Dunk and kill millions of people. It is very serious business.

I assume you've played this some more - has your opinion changed? That sounds like something I might be interested in.

Metal Gear Sold 3: Snake Eater 3D demo. For a build that's 8 months old, I can't wait to see what the final product will look like.

Finished NightSky, and steamrollered through LIMBO. What a fun, addictive, creepy, disturbing, intriguing game! I loved it and have about four separate theories as to what it means.

I just bought and downloaded To the Moon, an indie game, so I'll probably start that pretty soon here.

Been playing Battlefield 3. It's a great game when you're on a good server, otherwise it can get pretty bad. (I'm on PC, just so you know)

As of last saturday, beat The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, making it the second Zelda game I've beaten. Then I started Majora's Mask and am still working on it.

Started playing To the Moon, and oh my goodness, it's beautiful. It's like playing a nostalgic JRPG without the annoying random battles! Or any battles, for that matter XD
