    Im still playing Lost Odyssey for 360 and it's a great game (feels like a Final Fantasy), but a pain in the ass for achievment whores.
    Im stuck on the treasure trove achievment where you have to find ALL treasures sprinkled throughout the game.
    If I wasnt so damn stubborn I would've gave up long ago and started another game :lol 

    Some of you on my friends list are probably wondering why Ive been buried in it for so long.
    Must find that last item so I can complete the damn thing and move on.
    Wondering if anyone out there has actually found them all?

    How's your game going? If you're playing Metal Gear Solid 4, then I hate you.






    Oh yeah, anyone been listening to LCD Soundsystem since they saw that new GTA4 commercial? Yeah, Im a fan now. They're sord of like Talking Heads. Which is cool.
    In case you were curious, the song in the commercial is called "Get Innucous"

    That game was pretty rad, I sucked with the Jedi's but the clones were fun.

    Cant wait for Force Unleashed, that 71mb'ish trailer where dude brings down a Star Destroyer was awesome

    Been playing Bad Company for a few days. Up to Level 20 on Online. Took a break from it today and played Golf Tee It Up. Prtty decent. Kind of a poor man's Hot Shots Golf. This one has a shot adjustment feature where you can adjust the spin of the ball in flight. You have a limited time each hole. If you don't use it on a hole it adds on to the next one. On one hole I got three achievements:

    Ironman - For using only irons on a hole. It is one of the two 'secret achievements"
    Chip in- for chipping in
    Eagle - got an eagle

    It selected an iron for my first hit. Landed in the fairway. I aimed my second shot and hit it. I used the in flight adjustment and it landed near the hole and bounced towards it. I adjusted it a little more and boom! it went in. Got the achievements. Then later that round it pissed me off and I quit for the day. But I got the acheivements. Now I need a few more. Need to come in under par on the Parkland course, win a cup, play some online matches, get a hole in one, and finish swinging the club 1000 times..

    I've been playing WOW.....a lot. I'm a level and a half from 30 which means I'm close to being able to use the mount I bought today in prepration. Also I got a Tauren Druid up to level 11 and have the bear form now which is freakin sweet. Also Halo3 as per usual.

    Lets see, I finished Bioshock (had it since November but didnt play it until July)
    Currently Im working on:
    Silent Hill 2 (had it for a while but never touched it until now)
    Heavenly Sword (Just got it and it looks awesome, might beat it quick)
    Turok (I like the look but the controls are really making me take breaks)
    FEAR (had played it once, it spooked me and took me this long to play it again)
    Lost Planet (had played it once, got involved with Gears, took this long to play it again)

    Ive been spending about an 1 hour to 2 hours on each game and then I switch.

    - Halo 3, going for the Metagame and Lone wolves achievements. It isnt going well.

    - GTA IV, slowly trudging through the story mode, lost my motivation.

    - Portal, about to try the advanced maps

    - Smash Bros Brawl, working towards unlocking all Characters/stages. (Just Wolf, Jigglypuff and Toon Link to go)

    Unreal Tournament 3 is a welcome diversion from Halo. And I managed to finish Diablo 2 online (got into a game where we rushed Baal). Not sure if i should start a new guy, or keep going on Nightmare.

    I'm kinda all over the place right now. Just beat Fallout 1 and started on 2, other than that some Diablo 2 including a new ladder char and DMC4.

    Really need to get around to finishing GTA4 someday.

    Been playing Battlefield Bad Company and thats probably it until Gears of War 2 is released. I'm trying to force myself to go through the campaign on Hard and find all the gold but it's really grating and I find myself always selecting Multiplayer instead.

    Lately I've started over in a new game in Fable. That's really the only game I'm really doing much time with outside of the occasional bit of Halo3, GTA IV, and Mass Effect. Haven't been to interested in doing much CoD4.

    Haven't been playing much lately. I even canceled my Gamefly account last night, because I haven't been playing enough to justify keeping it. Thought about playing something tonight, but I'm pretty tired tonight. We'll see.
