Weekend Playlist 29/Sep/06

[ATB]

I've got a busy weekend ahead so playing prospects don't look good.

I want to get back to Killer 7 so as not to forget how to play or where to go.

Am also going to try to get some good time in with Okami.  It's rather brilliant.

I'm also desiring to play some DQVIII, but don't know that I'll manage to swing it.

In the portable genre: Battles of Prince of Persia will get my attention with hopes of figuring out how to play it.

[Kevin Grey]

Okami still but, about 35 hours and 5/6 of the way through, I can feel myself hitting a wall with it.  Hopefully and I can powerthrough and finish it up.

So, since I can feel the wall coming on, I'm looking for a "second" game to spend my time with.  Might pick up Valkyrie Profile 2 and start that, maybe finally get around to the first Baten Kaitos game since the sequel/prequel is getting such good word of mouth, and, inspired by Okami, maybe start another runthrough of Majora's Mask. 

Decisions, decisions...

[warning]

A bit of Thief: Deadly Shadows mixed with Burnout Revenge on the 360.

But mostly Grandia.  Loving this game.

[Soulchilde]

WoW-grinding AV faction on my Shaman.  The frost wolf shall be mine!!!!
[PSP]Godfather: Mob Wars-glad I rented the game, but I like still

I have Lucky Number: Slevin and Good Night, Good Luck from netflix so I will probably watch them as well

[hepcat]

A bit of Thief: Deadly Shadows

i envy anyone who's playing it for the first time.  god i loved that game...

[Laner]

I have the house to myself this weekend, so I'm going to try to polish off at least one game.  I've got a couple of games half-finished at this point... RE: Code Veronica and Lego SW2 - I also have Enchanted Arms, Dead Rising, and Test Drive Unlimited out on rental.  Or I may join in the Thief 2/3 fun in the PC Gaming forum.

[CeeKay]

Okami mixed with watching Veronica Mars Season 2 (as long as it arrives in time) or BSG 2.5.

[Arkon]

Nothing at this point, no working 360, and nothing on PC I want to play.

[Jarrodhk]

Bounty Hounds on the PSP (yay for trips.)  Maybe some BF2/GRAW on the 360 when I get back. 

[EngineNo9]

Well hopefully I will be playing a bit of Just Cause along with Lego SW 2.  The brand new (and yet retarded) Best Buy down the street didn't see fit to order any copies of Just Cause so I have to go downtown to the other one or EB/GS.  

[Lockdown]

Arkon - You could always take up knitting.  If you're looking for ideas, I could use a new Steelers hat.  

As for me... Guild Wars (PC) and BBall (360).  And lots of time in church praying that God continues watching over the Astros!  

[Kobra]

Paraworld!

Then possibly some Baten Kaitos (original, still need to finish so I can play part 2), also borrowed a copy of Grandia from a friend for the Cube.  MIght try to slip that in as well.  But Paraworld is the big game of the week for me.

[depward]

NHL2k7 and NBKA2k7 with friends tonight, probably nothing due to being busy Saturday, but fitting in Valkyrie Profile 2 whenever I can.

Good luck trying to fit that Grandia disk into your Gamecube

Fuck, I had Grandia on my mind from reading your post.. I meant Skies of Arcadia..

Arkon - You could always take up knitting.

On my way to the car dealer for some work, there was an interesting report on knitting on NPR.  I'm thinking it might be a good hobby to take up to bond with my wife and daughter.

[coopasonic]

Lego Star Wars II, Enchanted Arms, Madden 07, Hitman Blood Money, Top Spin 2... and I want to pick up Godfather and NBA2K7, plus a few DS games. I need a new game drought, stat.

[EddieA]

Valkyrie Profile 2 and Baten Kaitos : Origins.  I also have a bunch of RPGs I'm nearing the end of, so hopefully, I'll get closer - Grandia 2, Shadow Hearts : Covenant, Baten Kaitos, and Suikoden 4.  I also am only a few microgames away from unlocking everything in Wario Ware.

[TheMissingLink]

NHL2k7 and NBA2k7 tonight with friends...2k's totally dominating EA Sports this year.

Okami, definitely.  May skip around Oahu a little bit in Test Drive: Unlimited.  I've been all about putting custom soundtracks on there and rolling around, listening to Regina Spektor has been great.  I'm all about Table Tennis lately, too, FINALLY beat the all-star circuit.  Juergan was a huge, huge pain...

And per usual, while watching sports, I'll get my handheld gaming in with some Rocket Slime and various PSP offerings.

Gotta fit taking down a colossi in my hard-mode playthrough of Shadow of the Colossus, too.

I feel really, really bad for neglecting Yakuza, but until Okami's beaten, I can only focus on one new story at one time.

[papasmurff]

360:

BF 2
GRAW
and maybe I will put up with the 10 year olds and play HALO 2

[Autistic Angel]

I expect to be playing some more of Saint's Row for the 360.  I've finished the Vice Kings missions, and I've been working on completing the various side activities in between working on the Carnales storyline.

I've also been playing through the campaign for Company of Heroes for the PC and I'm hoping to have some more time to spend with it online this weekend.  I was supposed to play a co-op game with a friend of mine yesterday, but was completely unable to get connected to Relic Online even though everything worked fine the previous day.  :icon_sad:

I've been weighing whether or not to take advantage of GameStop / EB's "trade 3 games, get $10 extra" deal to rid myself of Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition, Kameo: Elements of Power and...something else.  The problem is that I can't identify a third game I definitely want to trade away, but if I can, it's likely that I'll pick up Disgaea 2 and spend some time with that.

Finally, I have a pre-order in for Defcon which I'll look forward to playing this weekend.

[disarm]

probably another weekend of Enchanted Arms and PGR3 for me...been working on the two of them in all my free time lately.  i'm slowly closing in on the end of eM, but the Hardcore level of PGR3 is still kicking my ass...

[pingwrx]

Try to get in some coh multi and some nba2k7.

[faide]

Hopefully some Okami sprinkled with some NHL 07 action. 

[Ascendent]

Hmm a bit of WoW some Battlefield 2 Special Forces (72.232.125.134:16567 No vehicles) SMT: Nocturne, Pokemon: Mystery Dungeon, and finally if I have time some maybe some Ghost Master.

[DonD]

Not a whole lot of gaming for me this weekend.

Probably just a mission or two in Lego Star Wars.

[GGMark]

Okami for sure, sometime this weekend.  I am a bit stuck.  I think i need to backtrack.  not sure.  I am at the village with the windmill.

Prolly some MLB The Show, since The Tigers can't seem to win a game in real life, now that they need to.

WoW, this weekend.  Some Aregent Dawn faction.  As well as Black Wing Lair Sunday night.  We got Nef down to 13% two weeks ago.  And recently, our guild just has had a tough time getting people.  We had a few leave.  We are short on healers.  If you would like to apply...

Anyways.  i think that might be all for me.  Maybe some animal crossing on the DS, but not sure.  its been awhile.

[Nth Power]

I haven't had much time to game recently, so I'm still plugging away at Enchanted Arms.

[stiffler]

Capcom Classics Mini Mix has arrived!

Bionic Commandoooooo!

[-Lord Ebonstone-]

Valkyrie Profile 2, Okami, Defcon, Dwarf Fortress, EQ1 though my interest is rapidly fading, maybe HOMM3:Wake of the Gods.

[CeeKay]

well I guess I can add Just Cause to my list.  I couldn't help myself, and the normal pricepoint drove me over the edge.

[biggercup]

Okami finally made me return to PS2 from XBOX360

[metallicorphan]

kingdom hearts 2 was released on friday so i got that,but i have not put the disc in the ps2 yet,as i have started playing through  kingdom hearts 1 ,hopefully gonna try and beat it this time...so then i can play kingdom hearts 2.

[Tebunker]

wife worked from 12 - 9 yesterday so I put in time Readin "Walk in the Woods"  , played one game of NCAA 2006 ( I always play the prior years game for a lot less money ), watching several College games on TV and playing about 6 hours combined of Okami and Wild Arms 4

[Kobra]

well I guess I can add Just Cause to my list.  I couldn't help myself, and the normal pricepoint drove me over the edge.

Yeah, we might pick up JC for the PC today or tomorrow.  $39 ain't bad, and we love open ended games where you fuck around on big maps.

[Calvin]

I play CoH pretty much obsessively. I will also be starting Valkyrie Profile 2 and playing more Okami today and into this week.< Its still the weekend for me as I remain in between jobs.
