I got to play a little bit of Mirror's Edge today from one of my participants. Definitely going to pick that one up!

that's definitely on my list. along with fallout 3.

it's just too bad little big planet is so addictive... luckily enough for my wallet. :D
i downloaded the movie studio and hasselhoff character for PAIN last week, and still haven't tried them out.

Here are the games I've played since summer...

Spore: 2 weeks (oh god it got boring so quickly)
Bully: a month or so (fun, but there's not much to do after you beat everything. it's quite easy.)
Command&Conquer3: a day? maybe two days? (I played at my friends house and never got into it...)
Call of Duty: World at War: Since it came out until now (I love the CoD series ^^)
Counter-Strike Source: Every weekend :)


Eh, I'm not that big of a gamer. More of a connoisseur..? I like quality games.

I played through Crysis Warhead, I play a lot of DotA and right now I am in love with Left 4 Dead!

I recently bought Far Cry 2, Crysis, NWN, Oblivion, and Starwars Battle Front 2 that I intend to play once this semester winds down.

I just bought a 8600 GTS 256 DDR3 RAM for $40 for my rig to enjoy my gaming experience. Was an excellent upgrade from my piddly 8400...

LittleBigPlanet, definitely justifies my PS3 purchase alone.
Planet Earth Blu Ray, although not a game, is simply amazing.

Playing star wars combine riht now its a website based game in the star wars universe... it seems really cool, but it seems very technical control wise having trouble figuring out how it works.

Other than that i've been playing some baldur's gate 1 here and there, mostly studying though for the next week and just reading some books here and there.

any little big planet players - i published my second level tonight.

"Leo's Haunted Castle" by sideshoweric

Again, made with my son in mind, but this one is a bit darker and harder. Unlike the farm, this one has a few places where you can easily die, and has some neat tricks. I have to help him through a few parts, but I know he's getting better and will soon be able to clear them on his own - so it's sort of a built-in continued challenge for him.

Just went on a SNES kick myself. It's been Super Mario World and Chrono Trigger for me. Never actually beat CT when I first bought it....

I just beat Metal Gear Solid 4, one of the best video game stories I've experienced.
Anyone with a PS3 should check it out, that is if you've played the first 3 or else you'll be confused.
That game also has lots of Apple products in the game. I was quite surprised.
Talk about hacking international military organizations on a Mac Pro.

I'm now starting to play Shadow of the Colossus, just took down the first guy. Truly epic.

I'm also playing LittleBigPlanet. The names BiffyWang on PSN, hit me up.
