Since there seems to be quite the contingent of video game nerds on the board, I was curious what yall are playing and what you think of the respective titles. Right now I'm going with PS2 - Dark Cloud 2, Madden 06 GC - Mario Kart DD GBA - Final Fantasy Tactics Advance Almost done with DC2. Probably my favorite rpg this gen and it's all due to the battle system. Dungeon crawling at it's best. Madden, eh, just continuing a franchise. Still having fun with diff playbooks. Will probably skip on 07 unless I can get it somewhere for real cheap. Mario Kart is alright. Almost done with that game too, but it's fun to just plug in and play for a while. I'm enjoying FF tactics on the small screen. Starting to get into building up my characters. Battles aren't too long, which is a big plus.
[PC] Counter Strike Source Age of Empires 3 Half LIfe 2 Death Match and every now and then some Call of Duty 2. http://BCgamers.net (i'm just about always on BC's Team Speak server)
I'm only playing a couple of PC games at the moment - Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (for the umpteenth time) and FIFA 06. Just passing time till Neverwinter Nights 2 ships in October, hopefully
Xbox: Madden 06 - Im playing the Franchise mode, Im starting the 3rd season. Ninja Gaiden - Excellent graphics, great game.
PC - Counter Strike Source EQ2 (Not much recently) DDO Online Trial (have 3 days left) Mount & Blade Oh and Gothic II when one of those is pissing me off CIV IV keeps me coming back to it but I'm really looking at a mod called Fall from Heaven II, which I just wish was in full release
Haven't played much lately..no new games and getting ready for school (training and all). Thinkin about getting Flat Out 2 though.
So is Dead Rising the first true next generation feeling game for the 360? Like graphics, people on the screen at the same time, etc...
CK, I really liked FFT Advance. Spent a lot of time building up characters there. Feel the same way about Dark Cloud 2 as you do, as well. I'm playing: Dead Rising Saints Row Demo NCAA College Basketball (I can't tear away from this damn game) Summon Night (GBA) Just finished Kingdom Hearts II I'd say GRAW and Oblivion are on that list as well.
For me its Oblivian and Dead Rising are the true next gen feeling games. Next on the list will be Madden, Gears of War, and NBA 2k7.
NCAA 07 - the best one yet (XBX 360) Table Tennis I used to play Karaoke Revolution on my XBox, but they never got any Ronnie Milsap. I gave up.
