I've been playing to 2Moons, a new mmorpg imported from Korea, out from Acclaim since 3 or 4 days ...

So far i've grinding mobs for hours ... funny and boring at the same time...

I so love and hate mmorpgs, this one is a grindfest, as usual for the free2play ones....

I think, I got bored on the third day of playing, not sure I'll continue to play it for a longtime... not sure I even play it again actually.

But anyway, I think I get bored of any mmorpg as well very fast. This game type need something more than leveling and mob bashing...

Ohh I beat the GBA version and loved every minute of it. My problem with the PS1 version is that I can't take it with me whereever I go. I'm a turn-based strategy game geek.

I've suddenly been taken with an enthusiasm for X-Com: UFO Defense and started playing it for the first time in years and years. I don't really agree with people who say it's the Best Game of All Time, but it is fun.

Picked up Super Mario 64 DS today and am enjoying it so far. Although I do dislike the way Yoshi controls, he's too floaty.

Civilization 4: It's not as addictive as heroin, but it's a close second. I think the mechanics are an improvement over previous games, eliminating a lot of the more tedious elements and making nonmilitary strategies more viable.

I have a real weakness for strategy games like that. I can no longer play Shogun:/ Rome: Total War, and still have a life. But I may try Civ 4 if it's not heroin strength. Especially if diplomacy has become a more viable option (Civ 2 troubled me because of the irrational bellicosity of the AI).

So, after plating GT4 for over a year, I hit the 25% mark.

Now I can race the endurance races!!

Gawd I love this game.

I'm getting more and more tempted by Eve Online or Lord of the Rings Online.

I need to replace World of Warcraft by something I actually enjoy being addicted to.

I gave Eve Online a quick try : it seems quite cool, but I can't be bothered with learning how to play.

I'm more an dmore fed up with World of Warcraft

I really wish I could find a LOTRO trial key.
(there's no open trial version, an invite is required)

i still don't get your fascination with MMORPGs.

They just require less concentration, and can be played in shorter sessions.

That is all.

I like MMORPGs because they are the closest analog to old pen-and-paper games; without the dragon dice, notepads, and late night pizza.

Actually, the pizza is there along with a nice glass of wine. I would probably get into LoTR, if I had the time. Maybe when I start my schooling next year...

I guess I'll just have to order LOTRO, and cancel (or put on hold) my WOW subscription.

Is it just me, or is Bioshock being hyped as the best game ever?

nope, it's not just you.

I've been playing Ridge Racer 2 and Pilot Academy on the PSP.

Some are calling it GAME of the YEAR.

But that's only because GTA4 was delayed.

Based on the reviews from various game critics, the game, so far, is receiving critical acclaim.

PC demo drops soon so I can't wait to see if it lives up to they hype machine.

Don't give me no sticking demo : I want the final release.

First, I'll torrent it.
And if it lives up to the hype, then I'll buy it.

I know. Fucking lazy-arse Rockstar employees.

Man, if Manhunt 2 doesn't get released down here, I'm gonna bittorrent it and send Crash $50.

Hopefully will be playing Vietcong 2 soon, as soon as I get Mr. Harddrive on speaking terms with Mrs. Motherboard.

It's got voice acting by Jason Donovan!!!

I spent the entire week playing Techmo Super Bowl at the beach. All hail nostalgia!
