    I got lazy and missed a few months of these. But let's see if I can get back into doing them on a regular basis. Here are some reviews for the 3 “big” February releases (BioShock 2, Dante's Inferno, and Heavy Rain):

    March is looking to be a pretty big month. Barely started checking out Metro 2033, which looks pretty impressive (at least from a technical standpoint).

    Is God of War III going to be on the PSP? If so, is it going to be the same game/version as the PS3?

    I'm going on a trip in May and would like to "borrow" a PSP from Costco and buy the game. I plan on beating it on the plane and then returning it when I get back. If not, I'll just have to "borrow" a PS3 sometime over the summer.

    I've been waiting for this game for 3 years!!

    No. Maybe they thought about it, but selling 10K copies on the PSP probably didn't seem all that attractive.

    There is the God of War PSP game from a while back. Chains of Olympus.

    I've got Bad Company 2 pre-ordered for PC. I can't wait to play since I played BF2 for so long. I'm not sure about getting SupCom 2 at the moment since I've got Napoleon: Total War and Bad Company 2 coming soon.

    For the PC RTS fans out there, Dawn of War II: Chaos Rising is coming on the 11th of March. I just watched an hour-long demonstration by the developers and the new additions to each race and the addition of Chaos Space Marines looks to be great.

    I doubt PC RTS fans have missed the news, but the StarCraft 2 beta has recently started. If you haven't opted in to the beta, you should do so now since Blizzard will be sending out more invites soon.

    God of War III. I'm pretty psyched for that one. The biggest reason I bought a PS3 a couple of years ago. Final Fantasy XIII as well, but then it became multi-console. At least I'm not having to switch out discs I guess. March is going to be a nerding out month for me. Gotta beat Bioshock 2 first though.

    Oh and doesn't Heavy Rain come out today? That one is looking pretty interesting. If I finish Bioshock 2 soon I may scoop it up.

    Is there anything available on PS3 that is similar to BF2/BF2142?

    I loved those games but prefer console now.

    Aside from Bad Company 2, there's nothing else. At least to my knowledge there isn't. If you haven't already you should check out the multiplayer demo from PSN. I think it's only going to be live until the 25th so there's a couple of days more to play it. I was kind of skeptical about Bad Company 2 at first, but after playing the PS3 beta and demo, it brought back that feeling I got when playing Battlefield 2.

    I've got Bad Company pre-ordered for 360. Mostly because of the Amazon pre-order bonus ($20 credit towards future video game purchases), plus free release day delivery (upgrade from my three months of free prime). I'm still on the fence, though. Played the demo... Still hate that you can't go prone. It's so chaotic. It can be fun, but I feel like I have no idea what I'm doing half the time.

    Can't wait for God of War 3. I should finally have Mass Effect 2 finished by then. Currently 41 hrs in and the game is fantastic!

    Looking forward to God of War 3. I put down Fallout 3 so I could play the first two games to whet my appetite for the new game. I've got a demo code for the third game but I'm waiting to beat God of War 2 again before I let myself play it.

    I look forward to getting back to Fallout 3 and eventually picking up Heavy Rain, but it's all about Kratos now. The game comes out March 16. My company has a huge deadline on March 15, and I'll be working a lot of hours until then. Come March 16, I'm taking a few days off, and going to blow off some steam.

    Heavy Rain is incredible. If you haven't played the demo yet go download it today. It's a fantastic story that sucks you in and this game is as close to "playing" a movie as you can get.

    Will probably try Sup Com2 and MLB (rent before I buy). Also for those of you that are 9 or have kids that are 9, Pokemon has 2 new games on Ds in March. Supposedly they are remakes of the old gold/silver games, at least that is hat my 9 year old tells me.

    I'm still trying to finish Dragon Age. Almost done with it. But then I wanted to get to Mass Effect 2. I'm so behind. :( Already thinking about dropping one of my "must-buy" games for March (probably FF13...might wait until later in the year, maybe when it is <$50 or something).

    I played a little bit of the demo, but then cut it off since I didn't want to play too much. Didn't really like the controls (guessing I'll get use to it), but enjoyed everything else. Reviews are more positive than I expected...especially since the game is probably even more of an interactive movie than I expected (and thus, more likely to be a love it or hate it kind of game).

    LOL, buddy and I just loaded up a UAV with C4 and blew up an attack chopper. (PC beta). Pretty funny stuff, they were all confused how the hell c4 killed them.

    Fun game. I'm sure things like that (c4 uav invincibility) will be fixed in the final release, but still fun none the less.

    Any thoughts on the baseball games that are coming out? Anyone have any interest in them?

    I'll be getting Heavy Rain soon...working on Infamous now and then may go back to Assassins Creed II to finish that off. But Heavy Rain is up high on my list.
