Which Video Games Are You Currently Playing?
As the title suggests, this will be a thread to talk about what video games we're currently playing. It will also serve as a place to ask for video game suggestions or to give advice.
Here's a list of skullbrainers PSN IDs and XBL Gamertags: (if anyone wants their ID removed, let me know, I just compiled this list from the other thread)
PSN: Aaron - Cococroc pickleloaf - Flexloaf gatchabert - gatchabert t0fu - paperthief turtletooth - skullnbones ShadowSpectre - ShadowSpectre_7 Lixx - Lixx68 stevesleazee - stevesleazee jcrazy - therealjcrazy aquaphase - aquaphase Omnihiro - TechRequiem oniclub - xxkieranxx g_money - coheed33 just1nj - FLC9508 legoomba - legoomba Kroker - SLAVExONE Baronacasino - pharcyde marswillrule - marswillrule siphilon - de_game Vintango - Vintango damaged Bryan - bcwarren88 zapataloco - zapatoslocos Dylanx - KROBT20 Crab Rangoon - aCrabRangoon Katsu-shin - venom_mob petitetoilonrouge - petitetoilonrouge GoldenArmKid - goldenarmkid
XBL: Aaron - DeadMoonCA BloodDrinker6969 - Death Hugs wtfunks - wtfunks Punkin Donuts - Punkin Donuts5 eckotyper - eckotyper bansheebot - doktorMott g_money - hmni gmoney oniclub - vault boy 106 copperhead - dumarq Katsu-shin - venom_mob
Steam: Aaron - semioticlove BloodDrinker6969 - Death_Hugs Punkin Donuts - punkindonuts5
Blizzard Battletag: Aaron - give#1825 psilo110 - bsides#2723
iOS Game Center: petitetoilonrouge - petitetoilonrouge Lalo - Lalo.Soda Aaron - 21stdeadrats
3DS Friend Code: Aaron - 2836-0127-7376 I Am The Fourth - Bobby, 2964-9907-1230 blurble - Blurble, 4527-7443-2356 IronPaw - 3952-7182-1573 oniclub - Kier, 1779-0310-0321
Currently I am playing: PS3: Skate 3 - it's essentially just Skate 2 with better online modes, not really worth the $60 if you're content with Skate 2. DS: Picross 3D - a very addicting puzzle game where you attempt to uncover hidden structures by eliminating blocks.
I also have Red Dead Redemption, Modnation Racers, and Super Mario Galaxy 2 on pre-order and I'll post about those when they come in.
Thanks to BD for the thread suggestion.

Re: Which Video Games Are You Currently Playing?
just bought skate 3 today. I've skated since i was a little kid so the game always keeps me content. The new levels alone make it worth buying the newer version. This one feels a little more cartoony and stylized, I'm diggin it. The story mode is pretty week but it always has been.

Re: Which Video Games Are You Currently Playing?
NES: Ghost and Goblins
Damaged Bryan and I are moving through this game in very small increments as it's stupid hard.

Re: Which Video Games Are You Currently Playing?
Yeah I also feel the new locals keep the game fun, I haven't really utilized the online challenges though.
Also, feel free to leave your PSN ID or XBL Gamertag and I'll put it in the list.

Damaged Bryan and I are moving through this game in very small increments as it's stupid hard. You guys like pain, huh? XBox Live: Death Hugs (I think there's a space) Steam (just signed up because of Portal but I'll be getting more PC games too now) Death_Hugs XBOX 360: -Left 4 Dead 2 (pretty much the only game I've been rocking since it hit) -Just Cause 2 Demo. I liked the demo well enough, I'm going to try and find it cheaper on Craigslist in a few months though. It was fun blowing stuff up and causing chaos. Wii: Nothing because they stopped releasing good games (like pretty much a few months after the system hit!) So sad. I guess I'll get Mario Kart for it though, always fun. Other: Portal- Just started, I'm hooked! Street Fighter II (via ROM) Zangief and E. Honda are always weird favs but honestly I suck no matter who I am. Final Fight. Mayor's who beat up gangs with mustaches RULE. Bioshock on PC. I've taken a break but I'll get back to it soon. I hate Big Daddy's and can't get a good flow to killing them. I'm certaint there's some trick I'm missing but whatever. I'm interested in Red Dead Redemption but I'll have to play a demo or something first. Also I'm waiting with excitement for Bulletstorm whenever that hits. I also hate the Gears of War series (had to toss in some hater-aide.)

Re: Which Video Games Are You Currently Playing?
Wii: Super Mario Galaxy (gotta play it before I get the sequel)
And if anyone wants good games for the Wii, here's a few:
Metroid Prime 3 (get the trilogy and play all three games) No More Heros 1 Super Mario Bros. Wii Super Mario Galaxy Punch Out
Those are one's I've played and enjoyed. I'm looking forward to Metroid: other M, SMB Galaxy 2, Monster Hunter Tri, No More Heros 2, Capcom vs. Tatsunoko.
Lotsa good games out there! =)

Re: Which Video Games Are You Currently Playing?
Yeah, what's up with leaving the Wii usernames out of this thread? I'm not a big gamer, but there's a few franchises I like: SMB, Metroid, Mario Kart I still gotta play Super Mario Galaxy and Super Paper Mario. And then once those have been played hopefully Galaxy 2 and Other M will be old and cheap!

Re: Which Video Games Are You Currently Playing?
I thought Wii "friendcodes" were game specific? My Wii is fitted for homebrew (if ya know what I mean) so I never take it online. I don't mind making a list for it if you guys want to leave your Wii Names or whatever they're called.

Re: Which Video Games Are You Currently Playing?
I liked Mario Galaxy...until I beat it in 2 weeks. BTW I don't play games often, so I don't know if I was a mega-player on it or it was WAY TOO EASY but I'm guessing easy. I might try 2 if I hear it's longer.
I gotta get on Mario Wii though, I just keep putting it off. I've heard many good things about the Metroid games, I'll check them out.
I'm homebrewed too so I don't go online anymore.

Re: Which Video Games Are You Currently Playing?
You might be right, Aaron - I just play against strangers whenever I play Wii on-line. I can't remember, but I do kinda remember the friend-code or whatever being game specific.

Re: Which Video Games Are You Currently Playing?
games? in the last year I think I've had the time to play maybe a total of 6 hours of games. I buy them but finding the time to play is nearly impossible. plus the Greek in me yells that I should be working not relaxing. So I work!

I'm homebrewed too so I don't go online anymore. If you have not tried it a suggest you get monster hunter tri on wii it takes some time to get used to be it you are looking for a long game you can put 200+ hours into it on the online mode. And being home brewed does not matter there is no way they can tell you have moddded firmware ive been playing online for about a year with it.

Re: Which Video Games Are You Currently Playing?
The Saboteur on PS3. Well worth the $20 price tag. Entertaining voice acting while running around France killing Nazis. Lots of side missions and trophies to collect, too.

Re: Which Video Games Are You Currently Playing?
Alan Wake.
I finished the game.
Overall it's a nice surprise, very beautiful with a good setting and atmosphere. Very combat oriented.
If you like Stephen King, Carpenter, Twin Peaks, Hitchcock, Lovecraft, you'll like this game.

Re: Which Video Games Are You Currently Playing?
I never played any Wii games online even prior to homebrewing it. i just assumed they'd force an update to clean up the Wii if you did jump on w/a homebrewed system but I honestly don't know.
