(Don't worry, I won't. XD)

Anyways, I've also been playing Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. Maybe I'll actually finish it this playthrough! XD (I've tried to beat the game before, but I've never had the patience to make it all the way through. I kept dying in the end missions. DX)

Zoo Tycoon (all I have is a computer )

That's actually what I'm playing right now. I'm finding it much easier to get through this time around. I think it's because I figured out who the best units are and worked on them specifically, instead of trying to level everyone up. And I usually end up ignoring Ike, so he stays weak through the whole game. This time I made sure he was amazing, so he'll quit dying on me!

Successfully finished my zero-kill Iji run a few days ago and got a better ending because this time I SPOILER: Highlight text to read: saved Dan. Great game.

What? I'm not playing any games! I'm totally sincere.







That was a joke.

[Crossfire]

The demo of Metal Gear Rising. I can hardly wait until I have my retail copy in-hand.

You are all incorrect. It is Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bO-bgxGs4Ng

Just been playing a whole lot of classic games

As a parallel, I'm playing Fire Emblem Awakening, Super Mario 3D Land and Paper Mario: Sticker Star (Likely said sticker star last time, but I'm taking it slow)

[ClaecElric4God]

I'm playing Fire Emblem Awakening

I'm curious, is that any good? I've thought about playing it, but I watched a clip from a playthrough and it looked kinda cheesy compared to the other FE games. Am I wrong?

[Vilo159]

Playing Final Fantasy III after a friend suggested it. Man, why have I not played this sooner?

[Ally-Ann]

I'm playing Minecraft, though I'm cheating and staying on Creative Mode. I play solely for the building part. :> I'm working on a city!

[the_wolfs_howl]

I played a lot of games over spring break (most of which ended up being horror games, because I was in the mood):

Amnesia: The Dark Descent - Awesome game. I love the Penumbra games, and think Frictional understands true horror better than any other game company out there. I also loved the drastic change in style from a modern science lab to a Renaissance castle. It was absolutely terrifying to not have any weapons (like in Penumbra: Black Plague), but on top of that to know that you couldn't stay in the dark for too long or you'd go completely nuts. See, what I would usually do in Penumbra was hide in the shadows when I got scared, and hope the monsters couldn't find me. But that doesn't work in Amnesia, so I had to hide in the light and cringe, knowing I could be seen. I think that game does a good job approximating madness, because it makes you sort of OCD yourself, wanting to light everything in sight and stay in the light. I loved the storyline, too - I think I really like the kind of games where you have to piece together what happened and where you stand in relation to everything that's happening around you. I enjoyed that about Penumbra, and I'm realizing now that I also loved that about the Myst games. The twists and revelations towards the end of the game were chilling and sobering, but wonderful. This is a really great game for any horror fans out there.

Amnesia: Justine - Obviously I had to follow The Dark Descent up with this. It follows a completely different, much shorter, storyline about a really messed-up household. All in all, I thought it wasn't as rewarding or interesting of a storyline as The Dark Descent, though it was just as chilling and scary. Not being able to save at any point was rather frustrating, though, and destroyed for me the horror of SPOILER: Highlight text to read: brutally killing innocents because of so much repetition.

Half-Life 2: Nightmare House 2 - This was a great, terrifying mod. It may have been the scariest game I played that break. It's about someone whose car breaks down outside a haunted house filled with zombies, and then after they escape from it they go completely nuts and end up in a mental hospital - which then gets overrun by zombies. It had a lot more jump-out scares than I tend to like, but they were really scary, and there was enough psychological messing with your head that I found it deeply horrifying in the way I like best. I could be wrong, but I thought the creators were drawing on The Grudge video game for inspiration; a lot of the scares seemed similar. That was a very rewarding game, even with weapons (which usually negates most of the terror for me).

Sword and Sworcery - This was a cute, light-hearted little game kind of making fun of Zelda. I didn't really get what the hype was about, but it was enjoyable enough, and the pixel art was beautiful.

Sanitarium - I'd been trying to play this game for a long time but had technical difficulties, so I was glad to finally be able to play it all the way through. I loved this game so much. It's older, and I didn't really find it terrifying, but it really made me think, and was fascinating to consider the nature of reality. You play as a man who wakes up in a creepy insane asylum, with no memory of how he got there. Then an angel statue comes to life and things start getting really weird, and you're never sure what's real and what's just in his head. (I'm actually of the opinion that the entire thing was in his head, but there could be multiple interpretations.) It was really cool to try to piece together what happened to put him in such a position, and to work out the fixations and obsessions this guy is dealing with in his messed-up brain. A very good, satisfactory ending.

SCP: Containment Break - I attempted this one, but I think I've actually found a game that's too scary for me. I probably would have persevered through it despite the terror, had there been more of a story and fewer glitches. You play as a prisoner on death row, who is put into an experiment with strange...things...and it all goes wrong and the things break out and start killing everybody. What killed my motivation to keep playing, other than the glitches, was this one thing that looks like a gigantic concrete baby doll, which you have to maintain eye contact with at all times or it'll kill you. The problem is...in this game, you blink. *shudder* So yeah, I gave up on that one.

Ib - Loved this game. A pixel horror game, who would've thought? But it actually managed to be really creepy, and I really grew to like the main characters too. It had some challenging puzzles, and I liked it enough that I played it over again to get the best ending.

Half-Life 2: Grey - Another mod. This one was really creepy, with really sick zombies, freakish baby dolls that eat your face, flying heads...you get the picture. It was quite scary, but not as psychologically subtle as Nightmare House, I thought. I gave up and just watched a playthrough when I got to the boss battle and realized it was impossible to get through it with the amount of health I had, so otherwise I would have had to play the entire game over again.

Mirror's Edge - A great way to end my gaming week. This was a great action game, doing a really great job of making you feel like you were actually doing the cool parkour moves. The story was simple and average, just giving you enough excuse to go through the levels, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. It had a really sharp, clean aesthetic that showed you how Faith views the world - in stark, contrasting colors. And I've loved the credits song for a long time, so it was great to actually see it in context of the game.

I also played a little bit of Rhythm Heaven and Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

[Crossfire]

Metal Gear Rising, obviously. I've found all the MIB, but the game refuses to give me the achievement and unlockable. I've got no idea why.

Doppelganger: Dawn of The Inverted Soul - Best...OELVN....I have played so far! And it's by my favorite visual novelist, axureXtwilight and her team, Memento Mori Productions~ I mean, oh my gosh, there's 29 endings! I like how replayable it is. When you complete like a couple endings or so (I think on on two different paths) you unlock 2 new routes, and if you get one ending per route, you unlock the true route. When you get more endings, new scenes are unlocked when you play it again, and once the true route is unlocked, not only do you get even MORE added scenes, but also the second opening~ This VN can be intense! My first play through, I got a good ending, but lots was left unexplained. Of course, the more and more you play, the more you learn, and you get confused sometimes, as you think one thing, and another revelation proves another, and...wow, well written! Almost got all the endings! azureXtwlight has sure gone a long way since she started with her Fantasia VN series. Especially battle scenes....she really did a good job this time, with the use of CGs and minor effects, instead of just the battle being described and the sprite standing there XD

[Toranoko-san]

I've been playing Ocarina of Time on my 3DS recently, wish I could play Twilight Princess but I don't have the game system for it anymore. ^^"

[Furen]

FE: Awakening (I'd have finished if I didn't accidently reset my file when I started another character to play along with my friend...)

Also, the Wii U. I only have that park game, but it keeps my sisters happy, which makes life easier.

[Banana Lobster]

Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker. One of the most addictive games I will ever play.

[SierraLea]

I'm not playing it right now, but i played Just Dance with about twelce friends last night. That is a workout and a boatload of fun!

[mechana2015]

Minecraft. The new update is great.

[Davidizer13]

Eador: Genesis is the best game you've never heard of. Some Russian kook cooked it up a couple years ago, it drew a fandom in eastern Europe, and last year it got translated into English (and translated quite well) and released on GOG, and right now it's going for free with a pre-order of the next game in the series (Masters of the Broken World, currently Greenlit on Steam).

It's a strategy game for the hardest core strategy fans, combining Western RPG, Civilization-style grand strategy and grid-based tactical combat. You've got three levels you're working on. The highest is the shard level, where you're picking a world to fight on. Bonuses like pre-built buildings, equipment and money carry over between the worlds somewhat, depending on how you did in the last ones. Each world is a map with opponents to battle, divided into provinces that you conquer and manage, keeping the populace happy, raising an army, that sort of thing. There's a ton of random events in each province that you pick up as you move heroes through it, with tons of battles to find in each one. The battles take place on small hex grids, with turn-based combat, maneuvering your troops into place and fighting close-up. And every level of this has crazy depth, with new classes and troop types, pathways to upgrade your soldiers, magic spells, technologies... It's an insane, beautiful Rube Goldberg machine of a thing, but it sucks you right in.

[AnimeGirl]

Just one more ending left to get in "Doppelganger: Dawn of The Inverted Soul".

Also a game I have been enjoying lately is Angry Birds Star Wars. My goodness, it is fun, but I am stuck on this one level! I'll eventually defeat it though...

[Makachop^^128]

I've been playing Crystal Chronicles for Gamecube haha good childhood game. I set up a gamecube in my room so I've been playing all my old games

[Shao Feng-Li]

Currently addicted to Age of Empires II: HD and Team Fortress 2. O! How I love the personal computer!

[the_wolfs_howl]

Finished Professor Layton and the Last Specter. It was so great to finally see how Layton and Luke originally met! Neither of them realized at the time what a momentous, exciting, longlasting friendship would arise from this single adventure. The puzzles were super fun as usual, and I feel as though I've grown a little smarter while playing this game.

Next, I'm going back to Ever 17 and attempting to finish the Sara route....
