What Game Are U Playing Right Now

[Angra]

"Assasins Creed 2" PS3

That's one of the longest and most boring intros i've ever played.

Slowly starting to get fun tho.

Well, myself and the chick recently acquired a couple of Nintendo DS's, and got these cool little devices called DSTTs for 'em, so I've had a fair few games to look at.
First of all, I don't think FPS games work on this system...at all...then there's the pissy versions of the games that come out on 360/wii/PS3, those are not really much good either, though the exclusives to DS are really quite good.
Using the stylus thingy is a bit annoying in some cases (prince of persia...click-to-go-here system) but not nearly as annoying as I thought it would be, and quite clever/intuitive in some other games, eg cooking mama.

I'm looking forward to playing the continuation of one of my favourite series, the title being "mario vs donkey kong 2" which is the third game starting with the gameboy/gameboy colour version of Donkey Kong, which if I haven't mentioned it is one of my favourite puzzle themed games ever.
Though, I'm leaving that one be for a while.

I saw a trailer of the game I've been getting into a while back, and I'm having a fair bit of fun playing it. Called "Lost in Blue", and is apparently a spiritual sequel to a series of games "stranded kids" featuring on earlier systems...though nothing to do with them really aside from theme, that being "Lost on a pretty much deserted island".
You have to forage for food, keep yourself warm, fed etc, while exploring the island, hunting for food (spear fishing with the stylus is difficult but fun), managing resources, building things, and basically staying alive.
It's not an easy game though..."learn by dying", I'm just about to start the game from the beginning for the third time. Though, it's a fun game and keeps you wanting more.
It's a bit like...Ico meets zelda.

Try Moon, once you get the controls they're easy but it's not a lot of shooting, VERY atmospheric and a wonderful Adventure/FPS.

I have Moon and Dementium.
Not played either yet...but yeah the version of COD4 they had on there didn't look so great, and yeah you had to control it by using one hand on the left/right of the DS and one with the stylus...I honestly doubt my "ability" in a combat situation if this is the only control scheme available.

What other DS titles have you got into?

[Straker]

Left 4 Dead 2.

Just like a polished version of the first one. Haven't played through all the campaigns yet, but the few I have played are quality. The new special infected are cool too.

:cool:

VERY slowly.. :mad:

Here I am with 100+ ds games, and I'm still just stuck on "Lost in Blue".
It's even a bit BORING haha, survival crap...but, something's hooked me to want to finish it.

Though I had a quick look at "wireway", nice looking bouncy puzzler.

Also the sonic games on the ds are IMO the first time since the 16-bit era that a sonic game has felt remotely familiar, like, what if they advanced the game in ways OTHER than 3d...

I'm playing


Alone in the dark (ALL)
Doom 3 (nightmare difficulty)
resident evil 1-5 and code veronica X and 0 remake (ALL IN HARD DIFFICULTY)
condemned 2 (OH YA!!!)
:D :D :D :D :cool:

And, well, Des has witnessed me play Left 4 Dead.

I'll save my money on "Borderland." The boyfriend might decide to pick it up, though, so at least I'll be able to try it out without paying for it. :D

I just found a reason for Chrono to buy this.

The newly released "The island of Dr. Ned" expansion pack.

Welcome to zombie horror land.

OH YEA!! :D
