What are you currently playing?

[Ian Barker]

I find it hard to believe that we haven't had a thread like this yet but Search didn't turn it up. Feel free to lock if its a repeat.

Anyways I'm currently playing Super Stardust HD. At the hands of no other game have I uttered more profanity. I'm somewhere around 11000 on the leaderboards right now, but the levels are so freaking intense I can't really imagine making it all the way into the tens of trillions of points as some have done.

Some flash game in the arcade section part of this website, sucks my soul every time I see it: http://wecookart.com/forum/arcade.php?mode=play&g=27 When you're logged out you might not see it though but it's like a strategy real time game, but more strategy than real time.

[FightingSeraph]

Mega Man Next Remix- It's a faster, harder, more challenging version of Mega Man with a whopping twenty robot masters. Note: This game is still a work in progress and probably won't be completed until next year.

[tobbA]

The new GoldenEye game for the Wii. It's pretty good, actually. :)

[hezeuschrist]

Just am replaying assassin's creed 2 on the PS3. Game is very enjoyable. I thinking it was great. I never get bored from it.

[Lone Wolf]

Still in love with Battlefiled Bad Company 2, the multiplayer is awesome. Looking forward to BBC 2: Vietnam.:)

Elder Scrolls Oblivion, but I got a bug that hinders the gameplay - and I have been trying to fix it for more then a week. >:{

Oblivion, such a great game.

I'm currently playing Pokemon, just for the nostalgia...
Oh, and Crash Bandicoot 3 Warped.

[FightingSeraph]

Tales of Symphonia-An underrated gem that still remains great to this day.
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker-Just beat this days ago.

[Supah]

Elder Scrolls Oblivion, but I got a bug that hinders the gameplay - and I have been trying to fix it for more then a week. >:{

This is why my roomate helped looked up any bugged quests and such on the Oblivion wiki...its even more annoying when playing the 360 version since it has no fan-made bug patches. So i feel your pain.

Otherwise, ive been playing some Fable 2. Eventually I'll get to play some Minecraft if my Christmas money comes in. Both are very good IMO.

I'm just about through playing oblivion now (doing damn near everything), I'm running it with about 30 mods. Took a while to get them all working together (trial and error with the load order/overlaps) but its worth it for the new gear, better graphics, less bugs etc.

What bug are you having, maybe i can help?

[OHI]

TMNT 1989 arcade game. I downloaded it from xbox live and it´s fucking awesome! :)

[tobbA]

Playing the new Golden Sun game. It's great, so far. Just a bit too easy. Played ten hours into the game and haven't had to use a single healing herb ^^'

But it's still fun and the puzzles are good

[Sulphur]

Cataclysm on my boyfriend's account until I get my own back up. Its everything I hoped for <3

I'm currently playing Pokemon, just for the nostalgia...
Damn I love the pokemon games. They're simple but so fun! Which version are you playing?
You just reminded me I need to be excited about Black + White coming out in the spring :D

Thanks a lot for wanting to help, but I think I figured it out and could hide the bugs. :)

Yeah the mods really add to the gameplay and visual experience of Oblivion, I am almost up at 100 mods now and it is running so well with it, except I think I need some more RAM. :P

Actually, the reason I started playing Oblivion again was because I saw this video of a modded Oblivion which looks just so beautful. WARNING: may cause you to reinstall Oblivion and dl lots of mods.

Playing Just Cause 2. Picked it up at a Steam sale for 6 measly euros. Almost can't believe what a huge bargain that was. Was a steal! Sometimes I love Steam. Oh, this was supposed to be about the game. Well, Just Cause 2 is simply great.

[Rusty]

Alien Swarm, awesome free game but need to have Steam installed, boooooo! :(

Alien Swarm, awesome free game but need to have Steam installed, boooooo! :(

Unless you dont have the internet, theres absolutely no way you can dislike Steam.... is there???
Its easily the best Gaming/social network thing outthere, and its easily the best Digital Download service out there, by a country mile too.
Speaking of which - Christmas sales are coming!! woooooo.

That said, because I play games too much Ive been playing:
Completed recently:
Arkham Aslyum
Baldurs Gate 2: Throne of Bhaal

Now playing
Mass Effect 2
Metro 2033

anndd the usual culprits;
Battlefield Bad Company 2 - but now Vietnam!
Team Fortress 2.... need I say more.

[Ian Barker]

Just beat God of War 3, pretty nice game! Also working my way through Gran Turismo 5. :)

[Moai]

My gameplaying habits are usually several years behind the curve, and as such, my time-waster of choice these days is Serious Sam: The First Encounter. If you haven't played it, it's completely absurd, but also pretty cool, and quite fun. Your character is a tough-talking, hyper-macho parody of other FPS characters, sent back in time to ancient Egypt to defeat an alien race that is about to destroy humanity in the future. The game makes no effort to hide the fact that the "story" is just a flimsy excuse to shoot cannonballs at giant four-armed lizard magicians in ancient Egypt.
The game also sends absolutely absurd amounts of enemies your way. Most levels from midgame onward have well over six hundred enemies.

[BAN_KAI]

just finished playing Final Fantasy 7 and omfg i couldnt believe how good it is, the end was the most touching and chilling moment that i ever saw in any other movie,games.

Now i just have to sketch cloud and paint him for FF tribute :)

[FightingSeraph]

Metroid: Other M-Mostly fun, but it gets frustrating at times. Now, I must try Tales of Symphoina 2.

[JDSart]

Final Fantasy 8, every now and then i play it but i never beaten it.

I usually just choose an oldie for the nostalgia kick when i get to it. Or else just a game that you can beat over the weekend or a few days and move on.

I tried Mass effect last week, and not that is bad, but most Rpgs are not my thing so already unistalled it.

[Baron Impossible]

Started playing Enslaved yesterday. Love it so far; slick combat and movement, decent story and great graphics. And by far the best character 'acting' I've seen in a game.

[Beeston]

Starcraft 2 for the moment - it's so easy to lose myself in the macro and micromanagement. Love it. When the Witcher sequel comes out, I'll play that; Excellent narrative and voice acting, and realistic motives. But when DNF comes out I'll play that for the nostalgia.

holy fuck it seems everyone can play SC2 exept me, i still have the damn incorect pasword, Login information incorect error -_-

[FightingSeraph]

Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World- A very good game, although not up to snuff with the first one. I wish Bandai/Namco released Tales of Hearts and Graces here.

Kirby's Epic Yarn-A different take on the usual Kirby fare and I enjoy what Nintendo has done with Good Feel so far.

[Beeston]

holy fuck it seems everyone can play SC2 exept me, i still have the damn incorect pasword, Login information incorect error -_-

March on over to Battle net and get yourself a password change with your respective email. Maybe you've entered the wrong email. You should be able to log in with the same Email and password for SC2 with your WoW account, and at battle net. Hope I helped...

tried that but the same thing happens on BN, just so you know EVERYWHERE I go any PC can run the game with my "login information" ( the same as i enter ),,, i tried it on 4 different PCs and it can enter the game and BN easily, its something at my end i think, 4 months passed since i played the game.

Battlefield Bad Company 2 (best serious shooter ever)

PHATandy - Yeah i know Steam is a lot better these days compared to their pain in the ass beginnings. The idea of a 3rd party sticking their nose in everything just never grew on me sorta like itunes and ipods, guess i'm just a plug and play kinda guy, heh!

Recently picked up Dead Space, man i dunno how this game got passed me on release such an awesome game, i've only just heard of it! heh! Part 2 looks to be due any day soon.

Changed my mind about Enslaved. It looked good to start with then went rapidly downhill. I've given up on it now, pretty much impossible to progress if you've chosen the wrong options early on (pure chance) and so irritating I wouldn't want to anyway. Another triumph of presentation over gameplay. Every developer should be forced to play Bioshock 2 ten times through before writing a single line of code.

I used to play it all the time until I had to sell my 360 to buy my Wacom (Fair trade to be honest). But now my boyfriend downloaded the Epic Games pack from Steam so I've been addicted to it all over again <3

Best FPS ever. No questions.

[LuckyDevil]

Minecraft and also Civilization 3 it was on sale for 5 bucks on steam.... Those five bucks have taken 50+ hours from my life! good game though, been wanting to buy civlization5 but im scared it will get me addicted and waste even more of my time :\

On a side note i used to play UT2004 religiously till i went to college, then during college i played counter-strike did clan matches and all that good stuff in both games, Good times. Probably the 2 best fps games ever made.

[Zantillia]

Relpying Okami on the Wii for the thousandth time. Also trying to get that while juggling Professor Layton and the Unwound Future, while saving cash for the Ace Attorney Phoenix Wright series. (Apollo Justice was sweeeet!)

[JDSart]

Kinda silly yes, but i have recently discovered the robot unicorn attack app on facebook and i find it very amusing. Perfect for 10 minute breaks and things like that, helps loose some stress.

I went kinda like this:
1-Lol, this is funny
2- hey, this is fun
3- shit just got real, i am gonna top my score
4- harmony harmony, ohhh yeah

Steep learning curve...but addicting. Crysis Wars mod.

Playing the Killzone 3 Beta, it's pretty good!

[Brendan N]

been playing loads of SC2: not sure I'll ever get tired of it. The game just has so much depth.

Anyone else here on the European servers?

[Farvus]

Right now I'm playing Experience 112 where you help main character lost in a huge ship (professor Lea Nichols) via security cameras and other remotely controlled devices as some unkown person sitting in front of computer. The game has low pace and requires a bit of patience but I got hooked :).

[donm]

crysis 2 demo. its hilarious how similar it is to call of duty. still fun though

[tobbA]

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. Nice little SRPG :)

[hippl5]

Played some Monday Night Combat because it's the free weekend play on steam. It was fun for a few hours, but once you've tried every class and turret, it's repetitive as shit. Already got bored after 4 hours.

[Dethklaus]

I've finally been catching up on my Call of Duty: Black Ops multiplayer while my friend is busy with my copy of Killzone 3.
Those two games and Dead Space 2 have pretty much consumed my time for the past several months.

[BAN_KAI]

just fininished the lamest game of 2011 Dragon Age 2 -_-

[MatthewHD]

just fininished the lamest game of 2011 Dragon Age 2 -_-

I was dissapointed with the first one. Felt very cheesy. I still believe their Baldur's Gate series is the best RPG ever made. Though, I haven't played Planescape: Torment, which I have heard was up there as well.

[O-mie]

I also didn't like the first dragon age :s didn't touch the second. The women all looked like heroine addicts.

IIIII am playing.... Persona 3, and trying to find a decent mmo to play. Also biding my time until the new zelda comes out. <3

[FightingSeraph]

Hunters: Relic of Stars (Flash game on Newgrounds)-To be honest, the gameplay and music selection were good, but the horrendously outdated graphics and mostly bad voice acting almost crippled it.

[ArtZealot]

I'm playing the latest Mortal Kombat. This one released last tuesday and is probably the best mortal kombat in about 10+ years. Video of some of the gameplay:
jT1ikalgv4Y

[Si_Swe]

Just started Persona 4. Takes quite a while to really get moving. I barely actually played anything for the first hour and a half or so, but it's been intriguing nonetheless.

[donm]

portal 2

[BlightedArt]

I'd actually really like to see a sandbox free-running / parkour MMO.... Just casual freerunning in a city with a bunch of other people, jumping rooftop to rooftop... like the running in assassins creed, but in a big urban environment (imagine, scaling to the top of a skyscraper with a bunch of other people then leaping off), etc...

I dunno... could be fun. :)

[FightingSeraph]

Space Invaders Extreme 2-How the hell did this and the first one get overlooked? I fucking enjoy what Taito has done with this and it's a shame that too few people remember them.

Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume-Also underrated and too bad Square Enix didn't dub all the story sequences. But that's minor considering that it has fun battles.

Donkey Kong Country Returns-Excellent job on behalf of Retro Studios, although it could have made use of the Classic and Gamecube controllers.

[JDSart]

I played Portal 2 in one sitting, i was super inmerse in it, almost shed a tear at the ending,

What a brilliant game.

[Tawnos]

League of Legends to the max!
And I'm waiting for my copy of Brink to arrive. I hope it runs on my laptop....

[jameshope]

I’m currently playing “The Aion” game, I really love that game and I want to play it always. The other name of this game is The Tower of Eternity. This game is a fighting game. In my point of view it’s a good game to everyone. I’m on high levels and I most like to play it, so I can play it well. When I’m free and in my leisure time I play “The Aion”.

[Beeston]

Assassins of Kings comes out today. Excited ^^

[p sage]

nothing. And loving the resulting free time.

[A Kitten]

Well, when it comes to a game I haven't played before, I'm just grinding along in Yugioh The Duelist of Roses for PS2 because it keeps freezing every single time I try to fight Mako Tsunami. :(

But currently, currently. I'm replaying Pokemon Ranger. As a boy. Named Luke.

fuckyeah.jpg

[Gilmu]

Uhhh... Bioshock and Amnesia: The dark descend :D

[Eldritch]

Wow Vindictus is much better than I thought

It's like a 3d diablo 2 and it's f2p

also Aion is 13.5gb wtf I just wanted to look at the graphics fml

[JDSart]

I`ve been waiting up to play Trine 2 and Alices Madness returns personally

I tried Amnesia, its scaaary, and i feel silly but i fall for every scare tactic in the game, it can be very inmersive, though it still comes up as a bit rough around the edges.

The monster thing actually looks silly when i remember it, but when playing the game it still startles the crap out of you, its all in the great work in mood and pacing.

[FightingSeraph]

Final Fantasy 3 (DS)-Still my favorite FF game.

[Darren1986]

I've just completed Portal 2, what an amazing game! Certainly game of the year material!

[Demo]

Recently Bought
------------------------------------
Portal 2- great but short

Brink --- This was absolutely terrible I'm honestly pretty disgusted in this game. Please don't buy this game

1701 A.D.- For the DS Kind of a remake of an old game 1602 a pretty great remake and love having it on the DS.!!! and it was 6$!!

Final Fantasy Tactics A2 - picked up 3ds just to play this game love love love it nothing but improvements on the first soo worth it.

Fallout New Vegas - Huge fan of the Fallout games, this one is great and destroying my studying time- liked the layout of Fallout 3 better but this is great - I could go on with the improvements and flaws but it is well rounded if you liked the first this is well worth it.
--- --------------------------------------
Rented


Lego Pirates of the Caribbean- Lots of fun could have been better but if you like any of the other Lego games then you'll like this, worth a rent.

Crisis 2 - Played on the Xbox was absolutely beautiful played very well, I couldn't really get into it Rented it for 2 days, Ill probably try to get this when its a bit cheaper very graphically intense in a good way, great shooting mechanics, kind of complex sometimes though only flaw most buttons preform too many actions and was kind of hard to keep straight.

Red dead Undead nightmare- Most people will hate me for this but I really didn't like this game, I think I only played the downloadable part but I'm unsure It didn't really feel like a full game but was unable to figure out if it was supposed to be an add on. The game world felt pretty empty and like there was really nothing to it but go to point A shoot zombie go to point B repeat etc etc etc... for the remainder.

Dragon Age origins: Mehh above average it eventually got pretty good much, like the Old republic games. I played a rogue and did not like the combat system felt really unresponsive until later in the game, and at least for the rogues it felt like making it through the game was a lot harder and you really weren't doing any damage, but again eventually the combat system felt better and it was worth continuing through.


Tales of Vesperia: This one was again Mehhh Symphoniea felt much more solid. I don't know the button layout felt wrong, couldn't really get into it which sucks because again I loved Symphoniea.

Singularity: Loved Singularity was really fun, And i'm really surprised this game didn't do better in sales and reviews. Lots of interesting and well designed weapons and environments, story was a bit transparent but o well still wonderful I'm going to try to pick this one up when I can, make sure to check out the concept art its up in the FF section and its beautiful.

[Cartogriffi]

I just received Hunted: The Demon's Forge, I've messed around a bit with the first section but I haven't had much time to get into it - it's not exactly a game I can play with my six-year-old running around. :)

I generally not a fan of 3rd person perspective games but it seems to work well and the banter is a lot of fun.

[Kjesta]

Replaying FFX. My first PS2 game, how I still love it. The sphere grid has to be one of the coolest levelling systems ever.

[Demo]

Time for a painting break with Roller Coaster Tycoon :D

[hu-ha]

I can't play games, most of them bore me after 30 minutes and it's hard for me to be sucked in; i like rather simple logic games. But, some time ago started Amnesia and I like it so much, despite linear plot. It's true monsters are not really scary but sounds are. Music is brilliant.

[Sulphur]

Downloaded the free 'trial' version of Age of Conan (unlimited play time but you can't leave the first zone at level 20). Expected to uninstall it after the content stopped but I was hooked and had to sub!
Beautiful MMO and lots more fun than I thought it would be (I no nothing of the Conan universe whatsoever). Shame the voice acting stops when you play the real version though because that was a really good feature.

I'd really reccommend anyone to download the trial - its a lot of fun, especially if you were like I was and just wanted to play something for a short period of time while you wait for more cash to play other games :P


Downloading APB: Reloaded as I type since its in open beta, hope its fun :D

[Dethklaus]

I've been playing a lot of Nazi Zombies with some friends of mine over the past few weekends.
Say what you will about the Call of Duty series, but mowing down zombies with a superpowered M16 while being chased by a zombified George Romero in an arctic wasteland has never been so much fun!

That, and I've become reacquainted with Killzone 2 and 3. Playing them has reminded me why Killzone is my favorite videogame series: artistic inspiration!

[JDSart]

Alice Madness Returns.

I`m liking it, the mechanics are functional i could say, maybe not exceptional, the camera is a bit wonky and combat could be way more refined ( playing on the pc) but the scenarios, costumes and models all look very pretty, i like the design in it and wanting to see whats next is enough to keep me playing.

And there are other colors outside just brown and grey, yey for that.

[.empyrean.]

Mass Effect 1
20 hours in so far, great game in my opinion. I'm curious how ME2 will be.

[Straight Edge Ryan]

Mass Effect 1
20 hours in so far, great game in my opinion. I'm curious how ME2 will be.

ME2 is still good. Lots of great dialogue, interesting characters and environments that made me love the first game. It's definitely more "closed in" I guess you could say. No more inventory system, no more landing on other worlds (at least not all the time), no more weapon mods, everything was "streamlined" as the developers would say. Whether or not it's a change for the better kind of depends on how you view the normal amount of character micromanagement that comes with most RPGs

As for me, I just got done playing F.E.A.R. 3 and I enjoyed it. Not a bad shooter, but it's the environment and atmosphere that's always made the F.E.A.R. series stand out from other shooters for me. Still, no really re-designing the wheel though. You should note however that the "Perseus Mandate" and "Extraction Point" expansion packs AREN'T considered in canon with the storyline of F.E.A.R. 1-3

Other than that, been re-playing Mass Effect. Wanted to try the game over again with a brand new character and experience the mass effect universe again before I transfer this character over to Mass Effect 2

[Gerard D]

Minecraft mostly, but also Oblivion. Been reliving the sonic adventure series too.
Soooo stoked for Sonic Generations, the trial was a blast! Comes out in Nov along with Skyrim and the complete version of Minecraft.

[The Mask]

I’m currently playing GTA IV, this is my favourite and a game I play very often.

[Macaw]

Crysis 2 and Halo: Reach

I am currently holding back the urge to draw the Nanosuit.

[Beeston]

Crysis 2 and Halo: Reach

I am currently holding back the urge to draw the Nanosuit.

If temptation swallows your willpower then draw the Crysis 1 nanosuit. Much, MUCH better and more interesting design.

[Highland3r]

im currently playing Half Life 2 and Bioshock, both are excellent games.

bioshock is a little bit to short, but the underwater city "rapture" and the story are very cool.

also i like the story and the athmosphere in half life 2.

[Straight Edge Ryan]

Playing Brink and Witcher 2: Assassins Of Kings right now.

Brink tries going for the stylized, class based team objective based shooter like Team Fortress 2, but not nearly as polished. A fun enough game but the different classes don't feel distinctive enough to make themselves stand out from each other, any way you look at it you're essentially shooting people with the same weapons and completing objectives by pressing the "use" key. It's fun enough, just isn't as good as it could have been.

Was reluctant to play Witcher 2 because I didn't like the first game at all, but this one is a large improvement. The graphics are a huge improvement, as is the story and writing and combat itself has been streamlined. Downside is it's not easy to navigate, so many menus and screens and the game doesn't really do a good job of teaching you how to use them (had to go online to figure out how to use mutagens) and it seems to operate under the assumption that the player is familiar with not only the characters and events from the first game, but the events from the Witcher stories and TV show, it's just easy to get lost. They don't make things over easy at all, they don't really hand anything to the player which sometimes works to the games benefit, other times just makes you feel stupid. Overall not a bad game. Still nowhere near as good an RPG as my beloved Dragon Age Origins though

[jella]

[Kasei]

The original Zelda for the first time...hopefully it lives up to the hype...however if its anything like FF7, I'm not optimistic.

Also playing FFXII and about to start God of War, also for the first time. I am behind on my gameplaying, I know I know...

[Macaw]

If temptation swallows your willpower then draw the Crysis 1 nanosuit. Much, MUCH better and more interesting design.

I'm still thinking of it. Most likely will. But oddly enough, I prefer the second one. The first one isn't bad at all. I'm just one who prefer's thicker looking armor. Not Warhammer 40K thick, who the hell would want that? But, Like the Security Shoulders from Halo: Reach thick. I like my armor to actually look like it protects me while still looking like I can move or turn my head in it.

[Cartogriffi]

Now that it's free I've finally gotten TF2. When I finally relented and got Steam last year I avoided TF2 since I figured I wouldn't be able to compete against seasoned players - but I've actually enjoyed myself quite a lot. I've mostly been playing as pyros and medics - more the former, but I'm enjoying my initial forays into medical practice. :)

Brink tries going for the stylized, class based team objective based shooter like Team Fortress 2, but not nearly as polished. A fun enough game but the different classes don't feel distinctive enough to make themselves stand out from each other, any way you look at it you're essentially shooting people with the same weapons and completing objectives by pressing the "use" key. It's fun enough, just isn't as good as it could have been.
I still haven't gotten around to Brink, although I own a copy. I don't believe the developers wanted the classes to feel as distinct as the classes in TF2 - I think with Brink they wanted it to be flavor more than anything else. Some people have speculated this was to limit problems where no one wants to play a certain class - since at the foundation they play the same way. However I've heard this is an issue with Brink and it's actually more problematic since you need specific classes to complete specific objectives - if no one wants to play an engineer in TF2 your defense may be crummy but you still have the possibility of winning.

I think I'd be more interested in Brink if the class abilities were more developed. My interest in the game sort of cratered when they removed the ability for operatives to play dead, which completely ruined my plans for a heavy operative - the character I was most looking forward too :(

[ecargin]

Also playing FFXII and about to start God of War, also for the first time. I am behind on my gameplaying, I know I know...

I really enjoyed the battle system in FFXII.

I'm also behind on my gameplaying, due to me now being a very casual gamer. I played a little bit more Dragon Age, but now I'm probably going to stop playing again for a long time to have more time for art. It'll probably take me years to finish the game.

[lze334]

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 never gets old, which is nice since my computer can't handle anything better.

[Flashback]

I love MS Flight Simulator, I got X.

The two game I played recently were City Life and Sim City 4, and I'm sticking with Sim City series.

City Life is boring as hell.

[Ms.Happygirl]

Currently I'm playing Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (Xbox360) and I love it. :D Somehow I always liked fighters but I didn't had any money so couldn't buy this one when he came out. But my bf gave it to me this weekend so I was pretty happy with it :P
