Currently playing Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica , a JRPG for PS2. A bit long winded but it's not bad , some nice music and melodies.
Think should be quite close to finishing. |

I'm playing "Septerra Core". It has a truly original and wonderful story. Too bad it's full of horrible "live" action sequences. I don't play many RPGs, but I prefer turn-based. But everyone agrees, the fighting sequences really detract from this game. Which is a pity, since the story really is top-notch. This is the 3rd time I'm trying to replay it again, since I want to see how the story goes, but somewhere in the middle of the game I just get fed up with it and quit.

I'm reaching the end of Portrait of Ruin. Seriously, this game is almost better than Dawn of Sorrow which in turn was better than Symphony of the night. Anyone even remotely interested in 2D Castlevania games should take a look at this. It's platforming that only Mario or Samus (Metroid) can challenge.

Persona 3 - not even halfway. Tedious game though.
Started on KQ1 but have yet to complete even half. My attention span is really really short. |

"Feeling twice as lucky, punk?" | Zoey evens the odds in Left 4 Dead GTA IV Not really keeping track of my progress within the main story line, but instead treating the game like the sandbox that is. Currently doing a bunch of assassination missions for $$ and getting shitfaced drunk with Dwayne, Roman, or whoever calls up Nico for a good time. Left 4 Dead Every Saturday evening, main campaign online with nieces & nephew (Illinois & northern California) and my friend in Chicago. Zen Bound Usually late at night in bed on the iPhone (on which this game is exclusive). Beautiful contemplative and calming game.

King of Fighters XI, not exacly a new game but playing it in anticipation for XII. Been also playing it due to the fact that I got an arcade stick to play around with.
Not sure if you can exacly state progression with a fighting game, but I haven't beaten the arcade mode due to the fact of the insane cheap SNK last boss. Who kills me when there is a distance by spamming projectiles that hit you all the time. Done a lot of challenges however, except for those I don't understand how to pull of things like (super cancel, escape roll, etc). Pretty fun fighting game, just a pity I don't have any humans to challenge. |

I've been playing Pikmin 2 New Play Control for the Wii. It's addictively fun. I never got around to playing it on the GameCube (due to the, uh, lack of GameCube...), but it's pretty damn awesome and I'm thankful I've finally had the chance. There's talk that Nintendo will announce Pikmin 3 at E3. Here's hoping!

Quake Live
Quake 3 Arena Online... FOR FREE! Awesome. Game is still fun. So fast paced. I'm loving just playing it for about 20min at a time then coming back a few hours later. Brings back memories of early PC/ Dreamcast days i.e. when games were still just pure fun. |

I've given up on Septerra Core. Great story, but the repetative gameplay of the fighting is so...repetative, it gets so boring. The game's pretty long, but always having to fight these people gets so boring, I've just given up on it. And I really wanted to know what happened. lol

Dracula: Origin. Am close to completing chapter 2 (Egypt); so far I like the game a lot even though I find it a bit strange to stroll around sunny Cairo after having to investigate a gloomy gothic house in London and an equally gloomy cemetary.

Right now I'm playing Gabriel Knight 3, trying to catch up with the playthrough here on the forum. Unfortunately, I also installed Sherlock Holmes versus Arsène Lupin, and I'm totally caught up in it! Normally when I buy a new game, I always install it, play it for a bit and then put it aside for when I have time to play the whole thing, but this Sherlock Holmes game has me so intrigued that I think I'll just play it to the finish now.

Rock Band 2. Trying to survive as a drummer on Expert difficulty and while I'm "five staring" (even gold stared a song) the first tier I can barely hold my own on the second tier...

ARMA2. Feels like OPF, but is buggy like hell and the performance is horrible, which is unacceptable.
