What are you playing? - February

[DumpTruck]

i just got Burnout Paradise, that game is so much fun!

[BioMechanic]

Ar tonelico II (PS2) - My first Gust title, and one of the few chan titles I've played, too. I didn't play the first one, so I can't compare, but this is fun. And weird. The Cosmosphere stuff doesn't quite cross the line between weird and creepy....I think most of the innuendo is pretty hilarious, actually. I've never played anything like this, that's for sure.

I like it when turn-based RPGs add some timing element to the battles (Shadow Heart's judgement ring), the sprites are very well-done, and the music's pretty good too (the game came with a soundtrack CD). I'm not that far into it, but so far, I'm quite enjoying it, especially the combat system.

I'm playing it too (although DQ5 might interfere), and it is indeed very chan-friendly. I find the whispery music and pervy stuff kind of creepy, but oddly enjoyable. Battle system reminds me of Valkyrie Profile. I think it's a little heavy handed on all the social stuff or whatever you want to call it (cosmosphere). A little on the easy side too (I am stuck on a boss though). My first Gust game too. I'm also having a hard time understanding what the fuck is going on with the story too. With all the chan RPGs I like, I'm surprised I haven't played an NIS game before.

ALso playing:
Dokapon Kingdom (Still)
Dragon Quest 5
HotD: Overkill
Retrogame Challenge

[Thief Silver]

I've picked up Etrian Odyseey II again, made up it to the 3rd Stratum, ugh Icy floors this is gonna be a pain I bet hah.

[animegirl]

Retro Game Challenge is awesome! I stayed up two extra hours last night and the only reason I stopped was my DS needed charging.

[kingoffighters]

Add Phoenix Wright to the list. My plan is to finish all my DS games this year.

[Shou]

Bloody Roar 4 (PS2) - picked it up on the cheap just to see how much it is updated from the underrated 3 and incomplete Western 4

Mirror's Edge (360) - like the concept, hated the demo but for $20 new I'll give Prince of Persia FPS a shot

Prince of Persia (360) - finished the Sands trilogy so moving on the latest in the series (not counting the portable Game Loft created crap)

[Beefy Hits]

I'd like to add SFIV to my list, but that's not happening until my RRoD gets fixed in 3-4 weeks.

[kingoffighters]

I'd like to add Resident Evil 5, but that' snot happening until Capcom release this game in a few months.

[bbobb]

I'd like to add Resident Evil 7 to my list but that's not happening until Capcom releases 5 and 6 and decides to make it.
