Grand Theft Auto : Vice City

For the 2nd time. One of the greatest games ever. The radio is the most coolest thing ever integrated into a game. V-Rock Station plays

* Ozzy Osbourne - "Bark At The Moon"
* Iron Maiden - "2 Minutes to Midnight"
* Megadeth - "Peace Sells"
* Anthrax - "Madhouse"
* Slayer - "Raining Blood"
* Judas Priest - "You've Got Another Thing Comin'"

and other such amazing songs. God I love this game. I love all of the series actually.

GTA: VC was a bit too short but damn good fun while it lasted. the songs were cool and the radios in general were really funny, the detail they went into on all the radio stations is pretty amazing, imo.

Man, the controls for Metroid Prime 3 are so fucking awesome.

God i feel so jealous of you right now , i want this game so badly. But alas, i does not come out for another 2 months here in europe.......*sigh*.......fuck!!.....

Is the story any good? Is the controls nice and responsive?

I'm hoping to get Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete for my birthday. Anybody ever played it?

I'm currently getting addicted to Medieval II: Total War. It's so huge I could play this for months and there is an expansion coming.

Classic! I would love to get my hands on that game again. I hate how its so hard to find those ol ps1 RPGs, well unless you wanna pay 100 bucks for a used game.

Anyways, yeah, one of the best classic rpgs ever made.

Got Stranglehold for the 360 today, havn't played it yet. But I am looking forward to playing tomorrow.

Heroes of Might and Magic VI.. wow.. i suck so bad at this game, no matter what the computer ends up beating my ass. Same happened when i played Heroes of Might and Magic III

I am playing some Oblivion... Kick ass game.

Level 15 right here. Working on it...

I am only level 5... What race did you choose? I chose redguard...
Btw you know what the level cap is ?

I'm a Dark Elf, basically made a combination character--spellcasting, stealth, and a little close combat in the form of Blade. There is not really a level cap but the highest I've heard of people getting to is in the 40's. But, some people do this retarded thing where they go to jail on purpose to reduce their major skills so they can level them up again in order to gain more levels. However, you can get the best standard armor in the game (meaning no stat boosts or anything like that) at level 20. So, I guess there is no hard level cap but I just plan on playing until I max all of the skills or until I get bored.

Everything's quite awesome so far. Controls are very nice and responsive- I'm about halfway through, and the story's been pretty minimal (though fine for what it is)- a good thing, as one of the best part's of Metroid is the sense of solitude.

Rogue Galaxy, 10 hours in and loving it, Level 5 never fails me.

Got my X-Box Live hooked up. If any of you fools want to get schooled add my gamertag (i didnt make this, my friend did when i was on the shitter) metalthrash666

I also got Medal of Honour Airborne and Pre-ordered Halo 3 and Assassin's Creed.

I'm so looking forward to that, it's not out in Europe yet. I'm a major fan of Allied Assault, Pacific Assault sucked, but judging by the previews this one will rock. I mean, when recording the sound for instance they actually put on German and American army boots from the time to record the difference between them. They flew an authentic D-Day C-47 to record the engines, the doors, the landing gear. Sheer coolness.

Made a nifty little surprise purchase today: Final Fantasy 1 & 2: Dawn Of Souls for the GameBoy Advance (or, in my case, Nintendo DS). Has anybody played it? Was this the right version to get, or should I have gone with Final Fantasy Origins for the Playstation 1 (which features FMV cutscenes - although their absense in Dawn of Souls may not be such a bad thing if you really bother to think about it)?

Tabula Rasa

Yes, I did get Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete. And it rocks! Great soundtrack (except may be the battle theme), interesting if unusual battle system, good storyline, great 2D artwork (why do so many people pick on 2D games anyway?). Just an all around great RPG.
