What Are You Playing This Week?
Posted 5 months, 2 weeks ago by 00.19

In case you haven’t heard by now, there’s a huge release this week in Deadliest Catch: Alaskan Storm. While the masses will be waiting in the midnight lines for crab fishing, I’ll be playing the under the radar title, Metal Gear Solid 4. Of course, in preparation, I’ll be replaying my way through Snake’s first three Playstation adventures. There’s just no other way I’ll be able to remember all the finer plot points of the Metal Gear series without having Wikipedia open in front of me.

In between all that Kojima-action, I’ll don my best fedora and continue my search for some of the world’s most famous relics in Lego Indiana Jones. I just can’t stay away from the pint-sized archeologist’s amazing adventures. Hopefully Sarah can continue co-oping with me. Indy was always best when he was working with someone, and the game is no exception.

I’ll round out my week trading paint with some of America’s finest drivers in NASCAR 09. Hopefully the online improves over last year’s poor showing. Even if it doesn’t, you can count on me putting Gordon into the wall any chance I get.  After all that, who knows if I’ll even have time to see The Incredible Hulk or The Happening at the theaters this weekend.

A little Crisis Core, a little Final Fantasy VII (itself), some Drake's Fortune and a little Monster Hunter Freedom 2. That's pretty much the list for this week. I have too many titles to really sit down and play so these are my pics for the week. Oh, yeah, there's also Guild Wars.

I just became addicted to Dr Mario Online. Took me a good 2 weeks to let it settle it. Also, keeping up with Mario Kart Wii. A little bit of Lost Winds here and there. Attempting to keep up with Wii Fit also, but failing miserably.

I myself just picked up Stirkers again after a long hiatus. We should play

Probably more Mario Kart, as I've been hopelessly addicted to MK over WiFi. Pepper in some Smash Bros. & Mario Strikers. Yeah, I really need to get a 360.

I got Stalker SoC a few days ago. I'll go till I get bored. Gunna try Halo 3 again when Steak gets it. Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee 2 looks like fun, and some Smash Bros/Karous on the side, just because I have to.

More Brain Age 2 action, and probably more Mario Kart Wii. Hopefully I'll have my 360 by the end of this week, so GTA4 and Halo 3 as well!

Some virtual console goodness for me. Devil's Crush and Baseball Stars 2. And probably some Rock Band.

Got back into Halo 3 this past weekend when my friend finally got the internet back (moved to a new place, couldn't afford it at the time). Laughing so hard I start crying. When you're playing with friends, Halo 3 is the most fun you can have on the innerwebs (with your pants on). Otherwise, it's just little kids, homophobes, and assholes. Not fun.

Also plan on playing GRAW 2 online. If anyone else wants to play, let me know. And of course the requisite Rock Band. It's so weird: I play it so often, and yet I never get any better.

Lego Indy! Also, lots of Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee 2, which I have been playing constantly.

Right now, I'm replaying Psychonaughts. Just felt like popping it in again. Also, I know I won't be able to get MGS4 for a while, so I'm thinking of popping in MGS3 and trying to play them all in chronological order. So, that would be MGS3, Portable Ops, MG, MG2, MGS, and MGS2. I don't know if I'm up to the task, but we'll see if I even have the guts to try it.
