Just finished DDS1 first-time after getting all extras/bosses (except obviously the second-playthrough-only boss). Will move on to DDS2 soon, although I'm compelled to blast through DDS1 again...
Picked it up again to open up more costumes for characters I usually pass over and along the way stuck with it after getting better with the given character (in this case Ayane), jump into Survival, etc.

I'm starting to dive into my backlog of older games, I've been dying to play this for a while. This is pretty much all I'll have time for this weekend.

Still working on finishing up a Majora's Mask replay -- I've been awfully busy and haven't had much time to work on it. When the TRU deal starts, I'm getting Shadow of the C. and DDS2
Musashi Wins!
FLAWLESS VICTOLY!
damn it, all those games I listed and a friend came over and we play Stubbs for about 2 hours. Great game! I had previously believed the GS score and was going to skip it for awhile. Damn it

Just know and love the Battle System. The storyline is kinda stratched a little to long (in the middle) but yeah, it does get more interesting after the Hotel Scene, just make it by and revel in the fights. I love the combo system in this game.
I'm hopefully going to pick up SotC this weekend and Shining Force Neo to. Also seriously considering Fire Emblem to quench my SRPG needs (since Shining Force Neo decided to go all Schizo and go ARPG)

This has seriously got me hooked. Despite having Wipeout, RR, Burnout and Lumines to play as well, I can't stop with VT.
Very good game so far. It may not have the deepest combat system but that doesn't mean it's a no-brain button masher. Switch your head off and you'll find yourself on the sharp end of some death. Much more level and mission variety than you'd expect from this type of game as well. I'm a little bit stuck though at the start of chapter IV. I keep getting slaughtered at the assault on the fort.
I've also been playing a little DW5, just gradually getting those fourth weapons, and GTAVC which I had hoped to have beaten before LCS came out but I've given up on that, some of these missions are damn hard (I'm at 71%). I've yet to beat a GTA game as well, despite getting pretty far in all of them, and by beat I mean both the storyline missions and get 100%. I got around 95% in GTAIII, 92% in GTAVC previously and my GTASA save was at 86-something%. One of these days I'm going to finish up both VC and SA 100%, but I don't think I'll bother replaying GTAIII again.

Just got back into town after a business trip so most likely more Katamari 2 and maybe I will finally finish Ninja Gaiden Black.
I'm playing mostly just FEAR and Fire Emblem(which I REALLY love!).
Shadow of the Colossus is pretty cool, but it's really just feeling like a novelty showcase game rather than something I absolutely relish playing. I've shown the title off to several people and the guffah's are priceless, but in my own time it's not getting rotated.
I'll also go against the grain and state that I prefer Quake 4 to FEAR. I'm at the Archam(sp?) building and while the shooting feels good, I'm just not loving on it. These environments are so <DULL>. I actually wish I was back to playing Quake 4 instead, sad but true.
Next week is gonna be the big one before Nov. 22. Lots of good stuff is hitting and I'm gonna try and buy none of it except SC3.

Complete for $22.50 = unbeatable. Time to dig out my old gray PS1.
Grandia rocks! Nice get.

Dragon Quest 8 Demo and trying to finish up Baten Kaitos + Eternal Mana
Crag Dweller
aka kindbudmaster
Playing Wonderboy in Monster World and Dynamite Heddy on Gametap. Was going to play thru Gods also but it's the Genesis version instead of the Amiga version.
Wait, I played about 20 minutse of Shadow. I've heard it's short, but ..... jeez, I thought when people were calling it short that it was around 10 hours or so, not Luigi's Mansion length (which people always rant on nintendo for).galoisky said:

Turns out I read the wrong save file. Total time was 6:27:38. Most of that time was spent trying to make the darn horse go in the right direction and fighting colossi 7 and 10.
