Half-Life 2 - GREAT voice acting, stunning graphics and so far very nice gameplay and intriguing plot. GREAT facial expressions on all characters.

Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30 - ho hum graphics but a very nice interface with a new twist on 'situational awareness'. At least it is 'fun' to play... whoo boy can those WWII Joes cuss.

OK... it's 11 pm (2300 hrs).

I'm playing F.E.A.R.

Going up in this elevator.

The lights flicker on and off.

I see that little girl appear in the corner.

She is looking at me.

The lights flicker on and off.

She is gone.

I stop playing.

Heheheh... that pic is old - there are fewer trees in the yard now, plus the area in the ULHC has been developed for a few years now.

Waittaminnit...

Why waste manhours and 'shift time' for an image that is... timeless and reaches across the miles in brotherly love and controlled violence. (sigh)... I think I am going to go hug my kids and then find a small farm animal to kill.

Just finished Lego Star Wars in time for the second game to be released next month. I'll definitely pick this one up. Thankfully, it's going to be on all platforms.

Actually it comes out in 15 days 11 hours and 24 minutes according to it's website :D This is definately the one video game I'm buying.

So did you just beat Lego SW or did you get 100%? Nothings better than blasting through levels using Jango's duel tea cups and Maul's double sided broom :)

It was fun searching around for all the hidden pieces and getting all the Jedi tokens to unlock the hidden level. A couple of them were really tough to get all of the tokens because of the waves of enemies swarming all over you while you're trying to get collect them. I finally made it though. I think Yoda was my favorite character, he can really kick some butt.

Yeah it's great because it does take effort and skill to find unlock/everything but it's a feat that most players should be able to eventually do. I'm still waiting to replay the last few levels with my wife to unlock all the mini-canisters on the file we're playing through together.

The parking lot battles never get old. It's great to switch with a CPU character that's in a fight so the other CPU characters will attack you (until you die).

Currently, I've still got Midway Arcade in my X-Box. It's great to turn on a game and be able to get into some major action within a few seconds and be able accomplish something within 5 to 15 minute (just like Lego SW) I usually give Paperboy at least one try a week (I can only get to Friday on the game, it's very HARD to beat) and then I play SpyHunter or Satan's Hollow because after losing my last life by smashing into a stray cat (or something equally humilating) I really need to shoot something :)

I've been playing Dead Rising ... great concept for an M game (a mall filled with zombies; use whatever is available to dispatch them).

But it just gets tedious ... the story is pretty spare and you have to spend more time than you want chopping down wave after wave of zombies. Save points are a pain in the *SQUEE* to access, too.

Not bad, but not that great. It's gruesome enough that my wife will leave the room when I'm playing.

Forgot to mention. If you like Half-Life 2 you should check out BLACK on PS2 or X-BOX. The best fun shooting a gun on a video game. Pure JOY

That is a great pure shooter. It's nice that you never have trouble finding ammo or guns, and you just shoot everything. Those street levels where you blast all the windows out of the skyscrapers and then hear the shards hitting the street ... yeeeha!

I spend most of my time playing the DS, especially the New Super Mario Bros and going back to play some of the puzzlers.

And I still haven't finished Resident Evil 4 :oops:

I'm on Starfox Command for the DS.

Meh. Probably one of my least favorite Nintendo franchises ... it's OK.
