What Game Are You Playing At The Moment?

[madeyeshawn]

I just pre-ordered Red Dead Redemption, Mario Galaxy 2, and Halo Reach at Walmart.com: Save money. Live better. Each come with a 20$ egift card, so im pretty excited about getting the best games of the summer at a good discount price.

Im about to receive "Darksiders" in the mail from my game trading community.

I have way too many games to play.

My brother also let me borrow Assassins Creed II (didn't play the first though I wanted to), Little Big Planet, Metal Gear Solid 4 and.. can't remember the other one. After Heavy Rain, what do people recommend me play next?

You gotta play Uncharted 2 its freaking amazing. Also check out Resistance 2 and Killzone 2. All three have good storylines and uncharted probably has the best online experience

I bought Starcraft2 from Best Buy - you get the beta code in 5 minutes in email. In other news, I suck at SC2 and get rolled regularly.

Definitely enjoyed the campaign in ODST much more than any previous Halo game. I also hope that Firefight makes the jump to Reach. Someone from halo.bungie.org did some sort of looking into the code (supposedly) and uncovered some cool features, like Grifball being a regular multi player mode and forge being used to create multi-player objective games with AI opponents.

Speaking of Grifball, any RvB fans here?

I never got to try firefight because I came to the game late and there's no matchmaking. I like the first few seasons of RvB (even got a DVD) but not seen much else.

GOD OF WAR 3!!!
SO FUCKING GOOD
but my roommate is the one who owned it, and now that the school year is over, we've both gone back home and now I can't finish it! FUUUU

I've also been playing Bad Company 2 and MAG
I don't really like Bad Company 2 all that much on multiplayer...I prefer the COD games.

Mirror's Edge makes me feel like throwing up after about 10 minutes of playing. Cool game otherwise, but that's kind of a dealbreaker...
