Been playing Killzone 2 a lot. I enjoy the multiplayer, and how it gives you a constant sense of progression, that's awesome. I've recently unlocked the Medic, as well as the Kill Specialist medal ot give me a second grenade. Close to ranking up again to earn a new gun or two for the Soldier, or an Engineer, I forgot which ix next.
And of course I've been practicing and working hard on Street Fighter IV online. Ranked matches are pretty addicting.

My friend way down in Florida (myself being in PA) is playing through the Silent Hill games for the first time, so I've been playing along. Also, I'm mere moments away from downloading Noby Noby Boy.

Since i just finished SH:H, I'll be moving onto the "Beneath the Ashes" add on for Tomb Raider Underworld.
Also still playing The Sims occasionally.

OK, so here's Vincent's official word on Noby Noby Boy: It's pointless. Literally. It is completely pointless. There are no objectives, enemies, time limits or anything of the sort. You just run around a small, randomly generated platform level and jump, climb, stretch, contract, eat things and shoot them out your butt for no other reason than the lulz. It's pointless. And that's what makes it so charmingly fun. It's only a $5 download, it's worth that much for the experience even if you just play it once.

Rule of Rose and its killing me. Rule of Rose had potential. That's all I'll say. Me, I'm getting into Noby Noby Boy more and more. It's a great concept, tens of thousands of people on the PSN community collaborating their efforts to help GIRL reach BOY. It's like, "come on, we can do it!" I like the idea of finding creative ways to stretch BOY out as much as possible. Then of course, you gotta make sure GIRL knows how long you are. [insert immature innuendo joke here]

Resident Evil 5. (PS3) I'm enjoying the game more then the demo. Just finished Chapter 1-2, and "I" haven't died once yet, Shiva on the other hand .... silly girl is too slow. Had to change to control option A straight away though, the default option is horrible. Makes me miss the NGC controller.
Still playing all the games i last listed aswell. Also picked up Eternal Sonata today aswell. haven't started that yet, i'll wait till i get a day off and sink some good time into it straight up.
need to spend less money on games, i really do... but then next week theres Metal Gear Solid : Touch (looks horrible, but if you put MGS on it, i think i have to buy it. maybe a i have a problem)

Phantasy Star Portable. This game is rather decent for a hybrid of PSU and PSO on a portable.
Working the RE5 midnight release tonight, will pick up my Collector's Edition copy then, but won't be able to play it, as I have to turn around and get up the next morning at 8am for work again.

Resident Evil 5, it kicks ass, as I knew it would.
And Madworld. Damn Madworld is a blast, and easily the most "mature" game on the Wii.

^ I keep flipping between really enjoying it and finding it pretty average. The AI for Sheva is a bit average. I wish you could 'upgrade' her skill sets like you do the weapons. You know, so she might switch between weapons that might make her helpful, or use a god damn grenade once in awhile. She seems to use her weapons in a weakest to strongest order, once she's run out of ammo for one thing, she'll change the to next. So a suggestion, the Stun Rod is not a weapon for her. I kinda wish there was a option to have the inventory system pause when you go into it too. its can be hard to switch between weapons that arn't set to the D-pad buttons quickly, and its very easy to hand them straight to Sheva by accident.

I rented the Afro Samurai game from Blockbuster. To sum it up: It's like Ninja Gaiden Sigma, except it doesn't suck. And yes, Samuel L. Jackson does get to say "motherfucker", so that alone makes the whole thing worthwhile.

Finished with RE5, started up Eternal Sonata. Quite interesting game, really like being able to change the language track, though, some of the battle comments arn't subtitled. And when you go 'skip' during a cutscene, it'll skip a batch of cutscenes, not just the one your viewing. I had to replay threw some sequences because of this, to my annoyance. Graphicly its amazing, and i'm under the impression other games have topped it in. the "Cel Shading" style has really madea giant leap this generation. its quite different in apperance to those in "Prince of Persia" and "Valkyria Chronicles".
Also started on Persona 4. But i'm yet to put much time into it. It takes awhile for you to get any freedom in the game, but now they i have, i seriously think i need to level up. I'm getting owned pretty quickly on the 3rd/4th floor of the first Dungeon. The enemies can Chain attacks depending on weakness much like you can. But i had a standard enemy land 3 heavy attacks on each member of my party in a row, knocking them all on their asses, and then the next enemy got to attack, killing the player character. Thats something else thats annoying, your team mates die, well you can just revive them with items. You die, its games over. and since you can easily die in one hit (though your team mates can take a 'mortal blow' for you.).

Pac, that's the geenral formula for EVERY Shin Megami Tensei game, not just Persona 4. P4 is difficult until you learn how to fully exploit enemy weaknesses and make proper fusions based on the situation. Very excellent game, one of the absolute best on the PS2 IMHO.
I'm playing Pokemon Platinum, and loving every minute of it. My girlfriend is playing it as well, and we're gonna battle and trade. I never finished Diamond, so this is my redemption.
