[May] What are you playing?

Mario Tennis for the Cube is scheduled to arrive this fall (October 10, 2004). I'm sure many more details about the game will be unveiled at E3 this week.

Ha! Finally! Thanks for mentioning that!

I've been playing Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles with two other guys. Awesome game. It reminds me of Secret of Mana in many ways, one of my all-time favorites. I love the cooperation required in casting spells and executing certain combo attacks, as well as having personalized maps, menus, and tasks on your GBA screen. I can see myself playing this with friends for many months to come.

I lied, I'm replaying Shadows of Undrentide and Hordes of the Underdark. My planned character this time is a Rogue/Shadowdancer, picking up levels of Weapon Master as I go into HotU, mastering in Short Swords. I was thinking about doing Ranger/Shadowdancer/Weapon Master, but I decided I didn't want to be so hack and slash.

On the 'Cube? If you can, try some 4-player deathmatch action. Its really fun.

Tried it once. Amazing. Too bad it can't be LANned .

Also try playing around with the weapon loadouts. My friends and I had a great time using nothing but mines and grenade launchers. The launcher, BTW, can be fired into the ground just so, that the grenade bounces up into an opponents crotch like the most lethal game of cricket in the world...

Once, we played with only flamethrowers and fire extinguishers. The thing with that is that someone will try and steal your kill by extinguishing someone else, and then setting them on fire again.

Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow

The multi-player version of this game just rocks the house. I have had more fun playing this than Halo, multi-player.

I don't have xbox live, but I do have LAN parties regularly.

The two style of gameplay(third person spy, first person mercenary) in one game is fantastic.

Very intense.

I have the PC version of Pandora Tomorrow, and a system fast enough to run the game well. Unfortunately, the multiplayer mode requires broadband, and I only have a dial-up connection.

Still, I'm glad to hear that the multiplayer mode in Pandora Tomorrow rocks. The reviews for the game all seemed impressed by it as well.

Not much playing of late, but what little I did was more tLoZ:OoA and Boktai.

PS2: Onimusha 3

What do you think so far? Feel free to compare to the first two.

Xbox: Nada - but I want to finish Beyond Good & Evil, ASAP.

Geez, what's taking so long I finished that ages ago.

UT 2004, my new addiction

What do you think so far? Feel free to compare to the first two.

I'll know tonight as it is still sitting in the plastic next to my PS2. Work is killing me! I can't wait to play it as I loved the first one. I actually never played the second for some reason...

Geez, what's taking so long I finished that ages ago.

I'd blame it on work but I can't. What has been eating up most of my time is actually the large amount of pen-n-paper RPG-ing I have been doing the last few months. A good distraction, for sure.

 

[Diavolo]

I'm playing, well, lots of fun games. Diablo II, Runescape, Final Fantasy IV (PSOne). Board or table top games would be a Mutants and Masterminds campaign, B5Wars, Magic, and starting Hero Clix. So many games, not enough time to play them all.

UT 2004, my new addiction

We've been playing a lot of UT2k4 as well. I've been playing GTA Vice City, Majesty and Sacred.

Seri and the roommate have both played Farcry - I won't until I get a new harddrive, and that's a few paycheques away. It's good to finally have an updated system!
