I thought this board could use one of these topics. We can share our gaming endeavors, offer our impressions for potential players, and compare our experiences.

I'll start. Ever since Sega's recent media briefing, I've had a major itch to play Phantasy Star Online because it only made me extremely excited for its sequel. I've managed to get onto a private PC server and its been a fun, nostalgic trip down memory lane.

I've also been really getting into the Xbox Live Summer of Arcade. I've picked up both Bastion and From Dust. Both are awesome games! Bastion in particular feels like a love letter to retro top-down RPGs like Secret of Mana.

Since I'm a fan of quirky Japanese games, I couldn't pass up on the opportunity to play Catherine, so I picked it up for my PS3. It's unlike anything I've ever played before; Q-bert meets Persona is putting it mildly.

Lastly, I've always wanted to play Killer7, so I'll be poppin' that bad boy into my Wii sometime today.

So now I ask you guys: whatcha playin'? :)

A few days ago I got steam working on my computer (was uncooperative for some time) and I've proceeded to start playing the Half-Life series for the first time. Burned through Half-Life and Half-Life: Blue Shift, now playing Half-Life 2 :D Before that I was playing SpaceChem on the PC.

For consoles, the last couple games I played were Just Cause 2 (great for screwing around in) and .hack Part 1 (trying to get back into that series that I never finished).

I haven't been looking forward to any games, mainly cause I live in a hole so I only hear about games after the fact... (Except for Mass Effect 3 and Halo Anniversary, the former I forgot it's release date)

Change of plans:

Gaming is something I need to pull away from, in it's place will be my profession as a 3D Artist and Game Developer.

It'l be hard, but heck, I can call gaming "research" from now on. Muhahaha!

Oi! Adhesive! Give me more research material! :P

I just finished Deus Ex: Human Revolution yesterday and I freaking loved it.....only wish

1)It wasn't always night, and didn't ALWAYS have that yellow art theme
2)It was longer (was about 30 hours but for something so awesome deserved more)
3) Had better, more creative boss battles.
