This weekend in gaming.

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

That is a game I haven't thought of in many years. I might need to pick that one up again soon. About how long do you think it takes to run through that one?
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Playing an older PS2 FPS. Cold Winter, dare I say addicting like the original Half Life!
Love the way i can create cover with various objects such as tables and crates.
You can pick off a body part like House of the Dead.

I remember shooting the barrels in Doom, only this one is a lot better. :mrgreen:

World Cup 2010 :oops:
Its a shame really, whenever I get into sports mode I put a ton of hours into them. NHL 10 is a big time suck. Yet i sit down to play an RPG and can't finish.

Mario Kart Double Dash
Picked this up from Glyde a little while back for cheap. It's enjoyable.

Shadow of Colossus
Hopefully knock out a few more of those beasts.

Hopefully I'll be playing some 3-player SD3 at some point (as awesome as 3-player is, it's hard to coordinate 3 people getting together). Also, I just beat Resident Evil, so I plan on starting RE2 at some point over the weekend (which will predictably be followed by RE3 when I beat it).
I'm known as ZebetiteGlitch or Zeza Von Thantos on other platforms.

Well, it depends a lot on how you go through the game. If you have characters that can cast healing magic early on, you can brave stronger areas and level up faster. If you don't (and I don't) you have to either grind a little to hit level 38 at the right time or blow all your gil on healing items and brave the hard places anyway.
Or you could be like me and get your characters to level 18 at the first Mana Stone to get an early class change...yeah I'm crazy.

I'll be playing Resident Evil 4, Resident Evil 5, Final Fantasy Tactics (PSP ver) and a FF7 hardmode hack I found. Plus other random games like Super Street Fighter IV.

My girlfriend and I renter Splinter Cell Conviction for the weekend, we're hoping we can both get through it in time, and maybe rent it again sometime alter for the co-op. Considering it normally takes me months to finish a 30 hour game this could be the most gaming I've done in a long time.

I'm actually starting to re-think SD3 for the weekend. I'm about 15 hours in and starting to get fatigued. Deliberating now between Super Mario 64, Sigma Star Saga, or Muramasa. Care to help me decide?

This weekend I'll be checking out that new Onlive Service they just activated for me, so far it's awesome!

For the rest of the week, form Red Dead Redemption, Try to finish Beyond Good and Evil for PS2, A bit of Lunar for the Sega CD, and possibly try out the Crackdown 2 beta/demo I just got.

Oh and semi-unrelated, try to finish up season 1 of Star Trek: TNG :-D

Probably not much of anything but just seeing if my wii has been shipped yet.
I put rocket fuel in my vaccuum and it started a fire in my house. I am so mad at Black & Decker for making a vaccuum that I can't do what I want with.

Seeing as I beat Saint's Row 2 on Friday and enjoyed a laggy, bugged round of Demigod last night, I might play a little more of No One Lives Forever, or maybe start up Syphon Filter on PS1.
