Game: What game are you currently playing??

[salmonman78]

Peggle Nights, curse this game for the time its making me pour into it.

Also heard that Final Fantasy 7 is being released for download on the Japanese PS network soon, hope it makes its way here as well.

[Dark Dragon]

Is anyone else having this problem?

The problem with traditional JRPG setting is that most have been done to death.

I'm most likely among the minority, but i don't particularly mind traditional JRPG cliche as long as they are presented well. Tales of Symphonia blew me away because of how well the game flow, despite the all too familiar story plots.

But this general shift toward sci-fi that RPG are taking isn't sitting too well with me either. The only RPG that I've enjoyed in recent times are Tales of Vesperia and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn.

I had high expectation for Mistwalker games but both Blue Dragons and Lost Odyssey didn't wow me at all.

I'm still somewhat skeptical about FFXIII so hopefully Mistwalker next game will turn out great.

I've just got Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow for my ds. Now i wanna play the rest games in the series, its really addicting, but compared to Oder of Ecclesia it is easy...too easy.

[oyabun]

I always tried playing the Castlevania series for the DS but for some reason I get bored easily. Maybe its because of the platform style? Still the first game in PS with Alucard is epic.

[Animeniax]

Just got Dead Rising for X360, haven't fired it up yet though. DR2 should be out in the Fall, looks even better than the original.

Dynasty warriors gundam 2
This game is just soo freaking good.
I got it today and played for a bit with shinn/destiny, and all ive got to say is wow.

Destiny is a beast, its melee range is great, its melee speed is great, its melee damage is great, its lvl3 sp freaking takes out and entire field ( 100 kills) and its air sp has excellent range and duration, couple that with a very fun and usefull moveset and damn its crazy.
Not to mention its combination sp destroys officers.

If Destiny is any indication of how badass the other suits are, then this game will only get better and better =D
Oh and for some reason, nanai made shinn a cyber-newtype lol.

I was waiting for the English version but it seems there's no option to switch to the original Japanese voices. Well, all the wait's for nothing and I'll be getting the Japanese version after all.

[darkshadow]

Yeah, which is weird cause gundam musou 1 did have that option, most voices are pretty good in english though, cept for a few.
Loran now totally sounds like a girl, I can't picture laura rolla as male anymore with that voice >_<, though the VA herself is pretty good.

Shinn sounds good, but lacks the emotion with certain lines, like "you people want to start another war!" sounds so much more emotionally fueled in japanese.

Lacus, well even though I hate her guts and enjoy blowing her up, her english VA doesn't do her character justice, the jpn VA has far more elegance and class.
Kira... well lets just say that "STOP IT!!" sounds far cooler in japanese then in english <_<.
Puru and Puru 2 sound out of character.

Still, its inexcusable that the jpn VA audio track wasn't included in either the ps3 or x360 versions, still there might be a slight chance they add it via DLC.

[Psyke]

I'll kill them if they add in that DLC after I buy the Japanese version.

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin on my DS.
I've finished Dawn of Sorrow - good game, not too hard not too easy and fun to play. PoR seems similar to DoS, balanced difficulty and fun. Compared to Order of Ecclesia it is veeery easy...but in OoE i'm stuck at 3rd boss...(its harder than finishing Bloody Pallace in DMC3 as normal Dante\Vergil...(which i finished - took me 1h 40 min as Vergil with his Nero Angelo costume, 2h 30min with normal)

could anybody recommend me a good ps3 game that allows 2 players to play on once console?(other than fighting games - we, that is me and my friend, already play mostly SC4 and we are waiting for collectors edition of BlazBlue) I know about Eternal Sonata(we are rpg freaks) and Army of Two, are there any more? oh we are also fed up with musou series(after achieving everything on warriors orochi on PC the series bored us and changes in dynasty warriors VI are bad in my opinion)

Resident Evil 5 is a pretty good game to play with a partner, online or offline.

[Buffalobiian]

Resident Evil 5 is a pretty good game to play with a partner, online or offline.

You can play co-op? Hmm, I might consider this game after all.

[Nadouku]

Yea, you can play co-op (offline and online). It might be better to bring a friend along than let the A.I. handle most of your mess. The A.I.'s not bad, but it's basically your baby-sitter, where it might use a very powerful herb on you if you took like 1/4 damage to your health meter. It's not something I'd like to be wasted.

[Buffalobiian]

Yeah, I'm mostly buying games for my PS3 that have some form of multiplayer mode, since that's the reason I ever touch it usually. I find single-player games more enjoyable on PC. That might be because I've got a crap tv/sound for the console though.

[itadakimasu]

I broke down and played some counter strike : source the other night. I was doing well despite having not played in several months.

Still playing SF4. Championship mode is funny because of the point system.. you don't lose points and so it psychologically makes you feel like less of a loser than in ranked mode when you drop 1/10 of your 100+ hours worth of points to some nub.

I started playing w\ blanka a little bit since his moves are easy but main chun li.

[gos27]

mostly play cod4, grid, killzone2, fifa 09, etc, etc ..

[Buffalobiian]

I played a bit of CoD4 yesterday. I'm surprised I can still snipe people with a fluctuating 3G connection.

There was one funny part where I killed 5 people with a single MP5 clip in 7 seconds. Got knifed when I was summoning an airstrike though

[Ryllharu]

Any and every fighting game I own on the 360 as I attempt to learn to use the arcade stick I finally got in the mail today. Authentic Sanwa stick with an Octo-gate. I haven't played a fighting game at an arcade in the greater part of a decade, so I'm really rusty. After years of using regular controllers to the best of their capacity, there is a slight learning curve involved.

Guilty Gear XX #Reloaded got the most playtime. Some moves I haven't been able to do at all on the 360 controller are once again possible, but I've been having some problems with the timing on Milia's aerial moves, and one of my combos with Dizzy. Jam was hit or miss as well. I could finally do her super moves again, but I can't chain link her kicks as easily as I could with the controller.

With enough practice, I will get used to it so I can play SFIV better, and should be proficient in time for the console releases of BlazBlue and King of Fighters XII, not to mention Marvel vs Capcom 2 on XBL.

[Sandldan]

Killzone 2 but mostly dota when im home in the weekends

[Xelbair]

Good old Guilty Gear, eh?
I've played too much that game, but it brings back good memories.
So you are waiting for BlazBlue too Ryll?
