I'm hoping to get some major time with Okami tonight after our Pampered Chef party guests depart. Haven't touched it since release day due to time constraints.
That and Advance Wars DS has me all wrapped up in it's War Room mode. I'm 3/4 of the way through the campaign, but I can't get enough of the 1 off battles. What a great game.

Okami for me, though I might finally break the shrinkwrap on Starfox Command.

Wrapping up Enchanted Arms early Saturday/Sunday morning and then I plan on playing World of Warcraft for the remainder of my weekend. I have Saint's Row to finish still, but I'll start on that Monday after work.

My Fair Lady and I fly out to Miami tonight for a cruise that starts tomorrow and last through the next week. So no gaming for me for a while. Although I did pick up Black earlier this week and wihle it's nifty to blast everything in site and the missions do take a while, that perspective shift it pulls whenever you reload kills my eyes.

Been feeling the itch for WoW, but I'm not a raider and everyone I know raids...I hate detest 40 man raids. So, knowing that I think I won't re-activate, but I love me some WoW with a good group. Probably play some:
Madden 07 [PSP] Medieval: Total War [PC]
Thinking of picking up Winter's Assault for the Warhammer. Jst don't want to pay 20 bucks for it

I need to do some hardcore playing to finish up Lego Star Wars II if I decide to pick up Just Cause this next week. The story mode won't take too long, but going back and trying to 100% everything might.

Heading home for Friday and Saturday, so I'll be playing some Bounty Hounds on the PSP. Once I'm back on campus it'll be time for some more Samurai Warriors 2 on the 360.

For me it's going to be like the last couple of weekends: Okami sprinkled with some Yakuza/Saints Row/GRAW in between watching episodes of Veronica Mars season 1 & 2 plus catching up on my DVR recordings. I may also try to finish up God of War.

Okami, Okami, and then maybe a little more Okami. Can you tell it finally 'clicked' with me last night?  I might throw in a little Titan Quest if Mrs. Gratch wants the TV.

I recommend you try Age of Empires on the DS. Its like Advanced Wars done right. I just couldn't get into Advanced Wars, it felt too 'Shallow' for some reason, while AOE-DS, now that is something grand. Just cause isn't due out till the 26th, how did you manage to get it?

Company of Heroes - looking forward to really sinking my teeth in to this one. I've only done 2 missions.
Madden 2007 dyansty - go Cowboys! Saints Row working on the activities Dead Rising - might still be too soon, though. I played the heck out of it when I first got it.

On the AOE vs. AW:DS front, last week I played the heck out of AOE:DS, aobsolutely love the game but I put it down this week for a change of pace and started playing AW:DS. I'm almost done with the tutorials and at first it didn't grab me but last night I could feel it starting to sink its hooks into me, I think I'm on the last tutorial mission.
I also hope to get some time in with the new BFME2 patch and I hope to get some Warcraft III MP in with some friends. I have to do all of this before my girlfriend gets off from work on Saturday night then I won't game until Tuesday.

It's a cold rainy fall evening here in Michigan. Reminds me of the fall days of years past when I'd sit on the couch for hours and play the Playstation after school.
That never happened, but I like to imagine that it did.
I should be working on finding another job and/or launching my businesses. Instead I have the itch to play my PS2 for the first time in weeks. I'll be firing up one of my games-in-progress, either Xenosaga (all the talk about XS3 has me in the mood to play some more of Ep. 1), Star Ocean: TTEOT (haven't played it since the week it came out) or DQ VIII. Or maybe Dark Cloud 2. Time to go downstairs and pick one.

Will Fatal Frame run on the 360? That's how I'm playing it. I'm about 2 hours in and it looks and works great except one of the cinematics didn't play - it just gave me a black screen then threw me into a battle. The other cinematics have played fine so far so it might have been an odd thing. I hope so.

I'm back into Fight Night and doing well with it, so I'm going to keep going until I get frustrated again.
I'm digging NHL '07, so that'll see more action this weekend.
And I'm intrigued by Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, so I may run out and grab that for my portable fix.

Apparently it has already been released in the UK but not until this next Tuesday here in the US. I guess I will have to settle for playing through the demo again.
