I played and loved Chrono Trigger when it came out on the SNES. Amazing game. I still can't get Diablo 2 to work on my computer. Diablo 1 will, though. Strange.

Finishing up Prince of Persia on PS3 ... and for the first time in a couple of months I don't have a AAA game sitting in the stack.

Free be? I paid $250 for mine.

Seriously, yeah it is fantastic to have a great game included with the system.

Love some of the other free features like the Everybody Votes and Check Mii Out channels (you can still A LOT of good celebrity Miis off there LOL). Even if I don't have time to play I still turn on my Wii on nearly everyday to check on the channels.

My kids play the crap outta that game... and for free ? Hell to the YES !!!

Went out and picked up Wii Sports used and cheap (hey that sounds like my ex-wife). Great game for the family to play and I have to admit, watching Alyssa play Wii games is entertainment in itself as she looks like she is going into seizures, especially the bowling games. Legs and arms flying all over the place, well until she wha-bobs herself in the head with one if not both of the controllers.

She he herself so hard one time that she was bleeding all over the place. I had to call 911.... because I was laughing so hard and couldnt breath.

I downloaded a few demos for the 360 from Xbox Live (can you download demos with a Silver account, or is that restricted to Gold members?). Of those that I downloaded, I've only played Conan and Ninja Gaiden 2. Both were REALLY REALLY fun, but Ninja Gaiden gave me a headache. I sometimes get a headache or feel nauseous after playing some games, but that's usually limited to first person shooters (which is why I generally don't play them). Why Ninja Gaiden gave me a headache and Conan didn't, I'm not sure. But I'm definitely going to see if I can pick up a used copy of Conan. And I may just get Ninja Gaiden 2 anyway.

And I'm pretty sure that was Claudia Black doing the voice of the chick in Conan.

Just finished Tomb Raider Anniversary. All in all a great game, but a tad more challenging in spots than I think it should have been. They really stretched the limits of the Wiimote with some of the wall climbing and jumping.

The bosses were a bit of a pain because of the "adrenaline dodges" you have to execute in order to defeat them (very awkward). It took me several tries to get a good lock on the enemy. The bad part is you have to do this move about 20 times to beat a boss and it's tricky to pull off.

The puzzles and cinema scenes were great and the game has a lot of replay value (once you master the moves with the Wiimote).

PoP on PS3 was a great game. A bit short though - I got the platinum trophy within about a week and a half of owning the game. I'm "starkreality" on the PS Network, Depluto.

Just finished Shaun White on the Wii ... pretty good, although it's better with just the Wiimote (and not the balance board).

Picked up Conan for the 360 used cheap yesterday and finally got to play it a bit tonight. I just defeated the dragon. Pretty fun game!

LOL! Ugh, I forgot we were already tagged. I wish you could assign categories to your PSN friends lists because I forget who's names belong to whom.

I've got this for PS3 as well. It's pretty underrated, IMO. The comments by the girls you rescue crack me up.. "My clothes? Where are my clothes?"

-Yeesh-
I wish they'd do a trophy patch on that one.

I've been playing Boom Blox co-op with the ladyfriend, which so far is the only non-DS game I've managed to get her to play. Which is probably a good indicator for those of you with nongaming girls (or whatever) and Wiis.
