What game are you playing thread

I've been playing Rush'n Attack on an NES emulator. I swear I used to be good at this game. I used to play it at the local movie theatre all the time. I really suck now.

I'm STILL messing around with Morrowind, even though I beat it a few (hundred) times. I have to admit, it's gotten boring, though.

I wish I had more money, I'd get something cool, hehe. Not Sci-fi, though, I HATE sci-fi games. Bleh.

[Overread]

GOG.com

Hehe. OR, when I said I wish I had more money, I kind of meant, I wish I had any money at all. My bank account's in the red.....

Well, I have become totally addicted to Rock Band on the xBox. Having lots of fun playing it. We are borrowing it from a friend, who let us borrow the game and 2 guitars. Think I will have to break down and buy the whole kit, so we can have drums and a microphone!

Nice thing about buying an older console (PS2) for $50 I got second hand copies of God of War, Gran Turismo 4, Medal of Honor Frontline and Pro Evolution Soccer 2008. Old games but they're all new to me. Having a quick run in GT4 but I'll probably start God of War this weekend.

Finished Dead Space (about 12 hours)

One part Resident Evil, one part Event Horizon meets doom3 and one part commentary on those Scientology nutters (for legal reasons Unitology isn't really scientology ). Dead Space is a survival Horror game based in space.

You are Issac Clark (See what they did there?) mute hero and ace Engineer, Handy with cutting tools and fearless in the face of rampaging mutant monsters. Sent to see what happened to the planet Cracking Mining ship, you soon find out they are all dead and have been replaced by a variety of mutations. You soon find out it has something to do with some religious nutters and an artifact of some kind.

Armed with a selection of mining tools as weapons (you only really need the one you start the game with) you have to slice and dice the monsters as you make your way through the ship.

Ok the story is a bit of a hodge podge of cliches, but the environments are suitable dark and depressing, the sound work is superb and scary and the monsters well animated (but lack variety). Cutting off limbs is this games raison d'etre and it's huge fun slicing off arms and legs and other appendages. There are some nice set pieces and it's difficulty is pretty well pitched right. The holographic interface is superb and makes it easy to manage you stuff and the addition of the guideline to the next objective is helpful as long as you don't overuse it.

Like most survival horror games it's mostly about inventory management, conserving your ammo and health, but I never really felt short of ammo of health all that much. Upgrading of your weapons and suit was easy enough and there are save points about ever 2 feet-ish.

Overall it is a satisfying addition to the genre, plenty of fun and creepy as hell, cutting of limbs and the zero-G puzzle sections were interesting enough to hook you in.

8/10

I can't wait to get into Dead Space.
I have almost finished Silent Hill: Homecoming. I'll post my review of it when I am done.

[Simian]

Waiting for a friend to finish Dead Space so I can borrow it off him. Until then, playing a bit of Bad Company on the 360 and Silent Hunter III (plus Grey Wolves Mod) on the PC.
