I actually felt bad for the thing, especially since during the fight I couldn't help but keep on saying: "I will NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT BE DEFEATED. NOT going through the swamp again. You die and go back to HELL!". Dragon Sword +5 + My best healing herbs at the time + Purple Flame Shield +10 meant he had not a prayer.

Picked up LIMBO from Steam. Very addictive little puzzle/platformer, and beautiful to look at.

I just finished Black Ops the other week. Liked it a lot better than MW2, but CoD is not really my thing. I much preferred Uncharted 2 to all of those games, and can't wait to pick up Uncharted 3 this afternoon.

Otherwise, I've been mostly playing Arkham City, which I'm loving even though it's more open world than I usually enjoy. I also still play MLB the Show 11 frequently. Love tinkering with my lineups.

I put Arkham City on the backburner because of Uncharted. Which is why I played BO after GoW.
The Double XP weekend was great though. Went up from 36 to 49 lol.

Playing some online Magic: The gathering with my girlfriend. She's systematically kicking my ass. What have I unleashed upon the world when I started coaching her more and more into gaming?

Re: What Are You Currently Playing?

My PC managed to handle Crysis 2 on "Very High" without a stutter. When I gather the courage maybe I'll try "Ultra", and maybe even "Extreme", at the risk of inhumane treatment of my CPU.

I'm replaying Final Fantasy X, after finding a copy of it in a charity shop. I can't believe how long it's been since I last played it.

Uncharted 3...and it is AWESOME. Only sneaked in a couple of hours yesterday and it's already one of my favorite games out there. Gonna platinum the crap out of it once I'm done with just playing for the story.

Uncharted 3 - So far the best out of the trilogy, it feels a bit shorter than the others which hopefully will be overlooked if the rest of the game lives up to the hype. It's also 3D compatible which is very cool. The graphics are way better, the physics and controls are improved.

Still playing through a bit of ps3 back catalogue which does keep it cheap Finished Valkyria Chronicles and now starting Red Dead Redemption. Then there's Uncharted 2 and Arkhym Asylum at least before looking at anything new. Playing a bit of Galaga this week as well.

I loved Valkyria Chronicles. Shame the sequel was for the PSP only

I've done the same. Was out of town this weekend though so I'm hoping to finish today.

Re: What Are You Currently Playing?

I'm thinking of starting a new file in Lost Odyssey, while I wait for Christmas to shower me with newer games, but I'm not sure...
I reached the start of Disc 4 last time, and then... stopped. I can't even remember why.

Re: What Are You Currently Playing?

I tend to buy a lot of games on Steam when they have their sales, and then finally get around to installing and playing them months later. As such, I'm currently playing Assassin's Creed 2. Quite enjoyable so far, even though I never really got invested in the first offering...
