Legend of Zelda (on Wii virtual console)
Shining Force II (on Wii virtual console)
Mario Kart Wii (the family group game)
Anxiously hoping that they release Phantasy Star IV on Wii's virtual console in the US (the released in it Japan but not the US for whatever reason )

It will have campaign logs and random thoughts...
The root of intolerance against RPG players by some Christians is ignorance. The root of intolerance against Christians by some RPG players is ignorance. It's part of being human, but it's still good practice to not fall into the same behaviour one condemns.

NintendoDS: Finished The World Ends With You and Dragon Quest IV. Both have special post-end chapters that I intend to play... but I still have Final Fantasy Tactics Advance 2 on hold.
And Castlevania Order of Ecclesia is out, so I think everything else is gonna have to wait.
Among other things, I am playing Chessmaster 10th Edition and God Wars II: The Supernaturalis. Anyone who has ever played a MUD should be familiar with the name God Wars. This one though is completely different than the original (but designed from the ground up by the originals creator). It has coordinates based movement and location based combat, so you actually input what you are doing with your right and left hands, feets, head and possibly tail. Different combinations of manoeuvers create different results, and different stances have different special manoeuvers for different weapons. So, for instance, one unarmed chain is, rw, rf, rs, rp, rs, rw, re is (with the right hand) palm, fist, strike, palm strike, withdraw, elbow.

Robs me of that which not enriches him
And makes me poor indeed.

I purchased a $20 used copy of The Darkness and played it on my PS3. Great Halloween game, but don't play it around family as there is a lot of heart-ripping throughout. I also just finished the demo to the Penny Arcade Adventure series: On The Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness and am considering purchasing it.
After that I might go to the Spiderweb Software page and download the Avernum series or Geneforge. I'm walking around with an old laptop and am looking for games with low graphic requirements. Spiderweb Software is the only company I know that makes new RPGs that fit this bill. And the storylines are usually well made and solid.

Started Crysis Warhead today. Finished it... today. If you want to pay $30 for a module, that's what it is. This said, it's not that bad. I was expecting it to at least tide me over Tuesday for Fallout 3... Oh well.
Mount&Blade still feels me with enjoyment. Couched lances ftw.
My Warhammer Online sub has expired and I will not be renewing it. It's an OK game, but not enough to keep me interested.
Why am I still training my Eve Online character? I don't know, but I still am.

There is a Fable 2 thread already started but I will say quickly that I enjoyed the first game and am enjoying this one much more. Combat is fun and there are tons of options, even from the start of how to play. And the visuals are really good, too.
In short, I'm having a blast.
