I wanna pick up farcry 2, but my utter lack of cash is holding me back. I just picked up Mirrors Edge, it's not to shabby but i know I'm never going to play it again once I beat it.

Well, I have been playing a lot of Resistance 2 on the PS3 on the back of wasting an untold amount of hours playing COD4 and CODW@W on the 360. Im holding off buying anything at the moment as Killzone 2 is out in a few weeks and thats looking Fantastic. Also, I love having a few laps on the PGR series as well as Forza 2 every now and then.

DarkArt, you're not missing much. i've got merc2 on the ps3, i had a lot more fun with merc1 on the ps2 (or better yet, freedom fighters).
it is enjoyable, but it really could have been so much better.


still playing massive amounts of fallout 3. brilliant game.

Same here Killzone 2 looks amazing and I liked original killzone even it just wasn't was good as it was hyped to be. I'm hoping killzone 2 doesn't have the same faith.

I have been playing guitar hero: world tour and rockband 2 for the PS3 and I found out that all new members to MGO (metal gear online) get the map pack for free I was very disappointed to find out that existing members don't get this same offer. Since I was one of the first members considering I bought the game on launch day.

I got several games for Christmas, but I'm sooo addicted to Animal Crossing. I cannot play anything else. I have 3 other new games, one of which is still in shrink wrap. lol

ha! yeah, i figured that's what you meant.

with the sharing and creating, the game can be fun for as long as media molecule supports it.

feel free to try the couple levels i put together... PSN: sideshoweric
they're not challenging really, i made them for my 4 year old son, but they are fun.

Combat Arms at Combat Arms - Online FPS Action is what I play these days... a pretty cool fps where u get to customize your own weapons and what not... most importantly it is free to play :)

I've been playing this for months! It's such a great game that's free. The textures and maps are really well done. Plus the GP system and the fact you can rank up are cool too. I use two accounts if you wanna play sometime; killerVCS and rawker are the 2. You can add me if you want.

Prinny on PSP. Graphics are good and I'm down with the quirky humor. Waiting on SFIV and Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Athen.
