What game are you currently playing?

LET THEM KNOW YOU REALISE.

I like this type of thread, because you can talk about an older game that you just recently purchased, rather than starting an individual thread.

Yesterday, I picked-up Mario Kart: Double Dash!! 1st impressions were in 50cc, and I was like, "What the shit is this shit?". But than I moved onto 100cc and things got that little bit more interesting/difficult/faster. A lot more fun than I expected, as many people bagged it out, but it still could have a few more less-shit courses. I had a quick bash on the multi-player, too, and was reasonably impressed. Although, my mates don't really play games anymore, so it'll be just me and my sister...should be cool...

Thoughts? What game have you just picked-up?

The last game I picked up was Resident Evil 0. Judging from the amount of game time I have put in it's definitely another great installment to the RE franchise and a must have for all survival horror fans or just fans of the series in general.

Smuggler's Run: Warzones. New, $19.95 from EB in January.

Pretty good fun at a budget price. Very repetitive though. I'd like to have a go at it in multiplayer though, as the single player is a heap of fun - and addictive.

I've never played the GC incarnation of Smuggler's Run, but if it's anything like the PS2 versions it'd be a blast to play. The original was the first PS2 game me & my brother owned. The amazing visuals and non-existant redraw point alone were well worth the asking price. :D

Back on track, I've only had my Cube for a week or two now and as such don't own any games. :( Luckily one of my housemates also has a Cube and a copy of Metroid Prime, so I just borrow that. ;) The first game I get will undoubtedly be Animal Crossing. :)

I've been hit by Xbox fever recently, and i've got 6 games on the big box in just 1 1/2 months of owning it....

But as far as cube games go, the most recent cube game I bought was V joe, and that was only about 2 months back. Great game, but I haven't gone back to finish it since I bought my Xbox.

For the Xbox I brought (cheaply) Blinx which was a repetive and mediocre platformer. Beyond Good and Evil is up next courtesy of Buffoon.

For the Cube I brought VJ which wasn't my thing so I returned it. I-Ninja should be next

Lost Kingdoms 2.

I like it.

Thanks for listening.

Oh, and hello, I loved MKDD!, despite the criticism it recieved from most. Once I got into trying to unlock the course ghosts, I was in the zone. So many hours lost...

Last games I got were on the same day at EB, Metroid Prime and Soul Calibur II. They were about three months back, but I JUST CAN'T GET INTO METROID PRIME! I don't know why, but I've played it TWICE, and it's just not really for me. I like having the "realistic" guns.

As for SCII, It's a great game and an awesome multiplayer bash. I'm also looking to get MK:DD!! or Transformers on PS2. Suggestions?

I think you need to be a bit of a Metroid fan to get into it properly. Metroid has always been about exploration. ;)

Hm, well Harvest Moon arrived today, but that doesn't count.

My last Gamecube game purchase was Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes. An awesome game, even if it is a remake. (I had never played a game in the series, before this one.)
I really liked the cutscenes, even if they were long at times.
Great game, bit hard too. (On extreme. ;))

Last game purchased on Ps2 was also Jak 2. (Seems like I'm copying Civ there..)
Another great game, and one of the best platformers I have ever played.

Before that, it was Jak 1 and Ratchet and Clank. (both at the same time.)

Super Mario Allstars. I hadn't played that game in about a decade, yet I could still remember where the warp flute was in the first dungeon, that special flying raccoon trick on level 1-3 that gets you into a warp zone, how to always get star cards, how to get infinite lives on level 1-2 w/Raccoon mario, not to mention the locations of about 30 coin blocks. I think I played it too much as a kid...

Have you beaten the very first boss? If not, wait til then before you pack it in, as the game becomes a hell of a lot more fun after that.

I know people hate these type of questions, but, which game should I get next: Harvest Moon or Animal Crossing?

The game that I purchased before Mario Kart: Double Dash!! (don't forget that extra !, Jawbreaker982 :cheese: ) was Prince of Persia. When I 1st played it I was like, "Greatest game EVA!!@@!!!! MOTHER!", but then I experienced the first combat and blah. It took me half an hour to defeat 20 enemies, doing the exact same actions, it was just b button, a button, dodge, y button. Boring...

Funnily enough, Prince of Persia has been on my 'to buy list' since it came out on the PS2 last year...

There are still a crapload of games I want to buy (gotta love buying a new console in the middle of its lifetime), and a crapload more i've bought but yet to play...all I can say is that Ninja Gaiden is taking up ALL my time at the moment.

my last gamcube purchase was soul calibur 2 about a month ago, it's awesome fun, espespecially in multiplayer, although playing against button mashers can be EXTREMELY annoying :P
something funny i've said that may or may not be changed :P -

^ [Mav] after a verbal stoush with me.

I recently picked up Splinter Cell for $69.

I'm loving it so far, and although it's a watered down version of the Xbox instalment, it's still a quality title, and thankfully, quite lengthy.

I'm stuck at the moment though. :(

Ouch. I had it in my hands for $40 at Target. I even bought the PS2 version for $25 but took it back. ;)
