Nancy Drew. I just finished Curse of the Lost Queen or something like that, and am now back to finish White Wolf of Icicle Creek, which I never did.

Too many
Just finished Kingdom Hearts, so going to work on 2 when the memory card works (something about having either a sony card, or one that's 8, any bigger by a third party card doesn't work)

Legend of the Dragoon

Sims 3 (but that never ends, so I'm okay with that)

Tales of Graces's Lines and Lineages mode

Final Fantasy 13 (well... again, so I can get on with 13-2 which I still won't play until I beat 13)

Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance


I have way too many games...

Edits: Oh right, Nate's comment reminds me I have to finish
Sonic Generations as well (Ach, overload)
Sonic Colors at that
Batman Arkham Asylum

I totally agree with you ^.^ I have that game... unfortunately no PSP, as I bought it for a friend that loves that series, but he had it already, so I got it

Well the talk of Darksiders in the Zelda thread piqued my interest in it and decided to check it out. I'm loving this game!!! Sure it's heavily influenced by other games as far as gameplay, look, etc (It feels like Zelda mixed with God of War type epicness and maybe a little Castlevania)... but I don't care it's done well and I've always loved the concept of angels and demons at war and post apocalyptic worlds so... this game is awesome. And to my surprise, there is actually a second one coming out next week so I gotta hurry and finish. But yeah, I really like this game a lot.

I started playing Slender, an indie horror game *shivers and hides under covers* Now, I'm a horror fan (albeit a rather pathetic one), so I was thinking, "Yeah, walking through a dark forest with a flashlight, no biggie, I can handle this. Pssh, it doesn't hold a candle to Penumbra."

Well.

After finding two of the pages, I saw the Slender Man for the first time, and...I just lost it *whimpers in the corner* There's something about his stark appearance, coupled with the sound of the static and the eerie music, that works together to practically give me a heart attack every time it happens.

I can never play it for very long at a time, but the strength of my response to it is forcing me to keep playing and trying to get to the end. I really am like a moth dancing around a flame when it comes to horror games....

Good game

I finally finished Sonic Colors (which wasn't that hard, as I was apparently only one half level and a boss fight off of the end)
It was good, pretty easy, which I like, as I prefer not to get frustrated at games.

So, I beat the story-mode in roughly 12 hours. I've still got most of the side missions to do, but I've got two questions.

1. What else is there to do, aside from DLC and the Challenge Maps?

2. Is there a way to revert back to Batmans not-so-torn-up suit?

Still P4A, as well as The Walking Dead Episode 3 and Psychonauts (for the millionth time =P).

@Crossfire: Pretty sure that is it. And I don't remember how to do it, but you can change costumes--maybe the option is in the menu somewhere?

Yeah, I changed the skin to "Batman Inc.", but the official suit is still the battle-damaged version.


I finally beat MGS3 on the 3DS. I gave up trying to stamina-kill the Boss after 15 attempts.

Really want to play, is it worth it?

Anyway, finally found someone to help me get files for my Kingdom Hearts 2, so will be playing that : D

Bastion

I die a lot. I'm playing in that mode where you don't have to repeat the whole level when you die too much because I would go mad otherwise.

Also playing a bit of World of Goo.

It is fantastic! The story mode is worth the price of the game alone, there is a lot gameplay right there. The fighting system is excellent. I have wanted to get into fighters for a LONG time but this is the first one where I am actually making progress. The mechanics are simple but there is still a lot of depth. If you've played P4 it is a must buy!

Playing Skyrim. Just got the Hearthfire plug in...

Also, trying to play Daggerfall, since Bethesda made it a free download from their website...

Playing Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings EE. With the expansion pack included, it's absolutely the best RPG in recent years and it blows Skyrim out of the water entirely and with extreme prejudice.

Seriously.

Beat Peace Walker, beat Skyward Sword, beat The Walking Dead: Episode 3. I'll get through my backlog yet! :D

I think next I'll continue with Catherine. Or Yakuza 4 if I can find it, I lost it somehow. :'(

I'm replaying Mirror's Edge. Again. Now I'm doing all the time trials and speed runs, as well as having yet another look around for those hidden bags that are hidden. (Redundancy! Yay! :XD:)

Finished Magical Diary - pretty neat for a VN! I might have to invest in some more otome games at this rate.

Silent Hill 2... Spoookay...

Never played these games before but got the HD collectors set with 2 and 3 for the PS3 from someone who always thought I'd like em. I do like it but if I play it too long... I start getting a bit spooked till just hearing the buzzing sound sends chills down my spine and even if I've seen the monsters a dozen times already, they start to give me chills and make my skin jump when they come out of the shadows.

If I play it for a little bit though, it doesn't bother me... I guess the longer I sit and the creepy atmosphere has a chance to build up, it just feels more creepy until just the sound of a fence swinging open makes my spine tingle.

I got one of the "bad endings" in Ever 17, so now I'm going back to try to get a better conclusion.
