What Are You Playing This Week?

What am I playing this week? More games than I can possibly find the time for. Seriously, I’m looking at this list, and it’s just not calculating. Between the hours I spend in the office, sleeping, and eating, something has got to give if I want to get enough play time in with all of these titles. Maybe if I get up two hours earlier, only come to work every other day, and skip breakfast and lunch I’ll be able to make a dent in this pile of games that is continually building.
In the leftovers pile, I’m still making my way through Fable II and collecting items in LittleBigPlanet. I know most of you have probably beaten Fable II already, but stop laughing at me. Pretty much everything was put on hold last week for Valkyria Chronicles, so I haven’t made as much progress as I should have. Also, I keep getting distracted by bounty hunting, house buying, and marriages I usually end up regretting. (That’s in Fable II, not real life).
I’ve also started making my way through Persona 4, and so far I really freaking love it. I can easily get sucked into that game for hours at a time. Of course, when I’m playing Persona, that’s even less advancement I’m making in other games, so you can understand my dilemma. As if that wasn’t enough, I’ve got Animal Crossing: City Folk and Left 4 Dead on my reserve list at GameStop, and I will pick them both up tomorrow. While I probably won’t log too many hours on Animal Crossing this week, I am psyched for the zombie apocalypse. Like, really psyched.
And then, for review purposes, there’s Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts, Tomb Raider Underworld, and Need for Speed: Undercover. NFS and Tomb Raider should be lots of fun, if not brilliant, and the jury’s still out on Banjo Kazooie. I hope that when all is said and done, it will be an enjoyable game, but to be honest, I’m not loving it. Oh, and I almost forgot Little Red Riding Hood’s Zombie BBQ, which is just ridiculous.
So, yeah. That’s my week. What are you playing this week?

same old for me. LBP, Socom, NHL and Valkyria Chronicles.
Oh man I can't wait to get Persona 4.
More Gears 2, and at the complete opposite of the spectrum, Animal Crossing.
Left 4 Dead... exclusively. Message (or massage, either one) xIoutItheIii on XBOX Live if you want to make the dead deader.
Finishing up some Mirror's Edge, working on the time trials. Plus, as always, a little Rock Band 2 and NHL 2009 scattered here and there quite casually throughout.
Damn you for having an early copy of P4 ;_;
A heavy serving of Gears 2, plus with the 1600 point card I got from Circuit City I was finally able to get Braid. I got around to finishing Dead Space, so whatever Gamefly sends me in return for that too.
Lips, Lips, Lips, rock band 2 (as always), Fable 2, and checking out mortal kombat... I would totally be into Left 4 Dead if Xbox Live would let me use my damn gold account...grrr
Fable II, Dead Space, LBP, and a bit of Disgaea 3 here and there.
i want to start a Disgaea 3 for game of the year campaign, whose with me?!?!
DISGAEA 3! DISGAEA 3! DISGAEA 3! DISGAEA 3!
