Now Playing

GRID. That's IT, honestly. Too much work.

(Really need to keep this more up to date...)

playing a bit of...
Gitaroo Man (PSP) - this is a) good and b) hard. Nice learning curve.
Patapon (PSP)
Animal Crossing Wild World (DS)
GoW:COO (PSP) nearly finished...
Echochrome (PSP)

...
Omega Five (360) - seriously good R-Type cross Robotron shooter
Ninja Gaiden Sigma (PS3) - lots of fun, not too easy!
Juiced 2 (PC) - PC version is SO much better than other formats. How come?
Nitro Stunt Racing (PC) - small studio racing title - thanks Game Seed.
Ridge Racer 7 (PS3) - I'm a secret Ridge addict.
BF2 (PC) - as always!
Soldner X (PC) - shootiest of shooters, sadly only from Play Asia on Limited Edition currently.

Sort Of Playing - when I have time

Unreal Tournament 3 (PC) - only managed to play an hour or two!
Crysis (PC) - done a couple of levels now, slow progress...
Black (PS2) - good start, need to finish it!
God Of War 1 & 2 (PS2) - again started, both unfinished.
Ratchet & Clank 3 (PS2) - played future, need to play this.
Half Life 2 Ep2 (PC) - playing it when I have time, ie slowly.
Thief: Deadly Shadows (PC) - saw it on Steam, enjoying it.
Halo 3 (360) - occasionally. I want to go back for the Skulls etc
Flight Sim X (PC) - when I need to fly!
Bioshock (PC) - sitting there, not getting played. Poor thing!
TrackMania Sunrise (PC) - when I feel like a quick blast, this is a laugh in single and multiplayer.

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune - PS3 - very pretty, well received, also on the "to buy" list.

Recently Finished With

Ratchet & Clank Future
Lots of fun, engaging game, reasonable story.
Plenty of variety and objectives provided the range of weapons.
Opportunities to go back and improve on your item collection is nice.
The only downside to this game, is it is way too easy.
Literally the only serious challenge was the final boss battle, which I lost once due to falling off the edge, was beaten right at the end once and succeeded the third time, so still not that difficult.

LocoRoco Cocorrecho - PS3
This was a great little puzzler, filled a number of hours, innovative control system. Need to play it through a few times to unlock all the areas, which gave it more life than I expected.

PGR4 - 360
Finally reached Rank One, bought all the cars, tried everything, done with it now.

Operation Peacekeeper - PC BF2 Mod
A seriously good BF2 mod, new maps, new weapons, new vehicles. Very well designed, brings new life to the game. Have recently ditched this for POE2 mainly, will still play sometimes though.

Call Of Duty 4 - PC
This was fantastic, I have not played CoD2 or CoD3, so it was great to see how much the series has come on. Excellent story line, good mission variety! Probably better than MoHAA, even without the duck/lean system, nice to be set in the "now" for once.

Portal - PC
For me, this was the most exciting part of the Orange Box.
Decent challenges, the story had plenty of quirks and Valve's trademark humour.
I miss my companion cube!

Medal Of Honor Airborne - PC
A well made WWII shooter! I do not usually enjoy WWII games, as the genre is so full of clones, however this really was a breath of fresh air. I will probably go back an do this again on a higher difficulty. Shame the multiplayer's not too hot.
