The Official "What Are You Playing Now?" Thread

[AndyDufresne]

So what game(s) are you playing? What do you think about them? This is the topic to post your thoughts. I apologize if there is already a topic like this, but I didn't see it.

I'm currently playing Lost Odyssey on the Xbox 360, an old school JRPG. I'm on the 4th and final disc, but I'm not sure I can bring myself to finish. The game started out fairly entertaining, but I've just grown disinterested. I might give it another shot to push through to the end, or I might just say screw it and play something sitting in my backlog that looks more exciting.

I'm playing the UFC 2010 Undisputed demo and COD Modern Warfare 2. Patiently waiting for the release of UFC 2010 and Backbreaker (a new football game with a revolutionary physics engine).

Tonight it was MX vs ATV Reflex on the 360 with my kid. The greatest Moto game ever. :horns2

I'm making people cry in Halo Reach Beta right now. Waiting for Starcraft 2, and Reach's official launch.

Started GTAIV: The Lost and Damned last night. Only about an hour into it, but it's pretty great so far.

Replaying Gears of War 2, throwing in a little bit of MW2, and playing some Trials HD.

I highly recommend Trials HD to those of you who want a challenging game that might make you want to rip your hair out.

NCAA '10 in Dynasty mode. Always mix some COD:MW2 in there as well! :tv

I've started playing this one as well and I have Just Cause 2 still in packaging waiting for me to destroy things.

Let me know how Just Cause 2 is. I've heard good things.

Finished the Lost & Damned over the weekend. Even though the missions were similar to those in GTAIV, being part of a gang and riding a motorcycle in formation with your brothers was very cool. There were only a couple of missions that you had to do solo. I really liked how the story tied back into Niko's tale several times over the course of the game.

I also started the next episode over the weekend, The Ballad of Gay Tony. From what I can tell, the missions are more varied but the story is weaker than L&D.

I Have been playing alot of Halo Wars waiting for Starcraft 2. Gears of war 2 so i can be ready for Gears 3, and a ton of runescape.

Finished up The Ballad of Gay Tony last night. It is almost the opposite GTA experience from The Lost & Damned. I didn't find most of the characters very interesting (except Yusuf - "We're gettin' A-rab mo-ney") and the story was not that great, but the missions were original and varied and the new weaponry you get to play with is awesome.

I also put just over an hour into Mass Effect 2 last night. Dear god that game is awesome so far. In fact, I'm going to start over tonight just so I can experience the beginning again.

I simply cannot put away college football 2010 (this will not happen till Mid July), but the other games in the rotation are Red Dead Redemption & FIFA World Cup 2010.
