tried a demo for Mirror's Edge by EA. Actually a pretty interesting game but I think it may be just a renter though. Comes out November 11th.

Funny that... it's the only single player FPS that I've played through more than twice.

I can't wait for the next installment due out in a week! (I think?)

WoW, D2, Brood Wars, NHL 09, Civ 3/4, Heroes Wake of Gods.

Mostly WoW getting ready for the expansion hitting in 1 week. Going to play it differently after beat KJ in TBC I am going to focus more on leveling slow and the new Achievements (best thing implemented i have ever seen by any MMO Company) If you get addicted to the Achievements this game will be amazing for everyone not just the hardcore player. I advise all old WoWers to try out the new patch and WOTLK at least just to see what they think of this.

I was addicted to SimCity for years. There are a million mods out there to make the game better, but it is really starting to show it's age now.

Anyway, this is a new city building game due out next year: http://www.citiesxl.com/

I'm playing a few games at the moment:

Lineage II (PC) - Been playing this MMORPG for over 4 years now. Still having a blast with it.
The Witcher (PC) - Maybe a game not well known, but it's pretty damn good. It's sort of a hack'n'slash type game with RPG elements.
Lost Odyssey (360) - Damn good RPG
NHL '09 (360) - Not so much anymore

And soon to be on the new Call of Duty in a few days.

I'm playing nothing right now. Finally got the famous red light of death on my xbox 360. Never thought it would happen to me.

Love this game.

I haven't bought any new game (for xbox360) in at least a year but Fallout 3 really peaked my interested. So far it hasn't disappointed. I find myself just wandering around taking in the atmosphere. Turn the lights off in the house, turn up the volume and really immerse myself in the game.

I find the game a little hard because it is so huge but I think I'm finally getting the hang of it now. I just hit level 5 . . . and killed my first supermutants! Anyway, I highly recommend this game.

Edit: One thing that I find a minor irritation in the game is that very few of the characters seem to give good directions anywhere. I'm not sure if they're lying or what the deal is but I got lost a few times (before I really knew how to use the pip-boy) thanks to this.

Moriarity lies to you right at the beginning. It's awesomely done because most of the characters just don't give a crap about you, so you have to figure out everything by yourself.

Fallout question: If I was going to follow Mr.Burke's instructions for the power of the Atom quest, do I need to finish the Wasteland survival guide first?
If spoiler, hide the text

Thanks

You blow up the town, but Moira escapes to the Underground. It's awesome, by the way. She becomes a ghoul.

Sweet thanks Peter12

<I knew she escapes, just wasn't sure if I can continue the quest still once she becomes a ghoul>

I pretty much did everything in Megaton and collected everything I needed to collect (Hint: in the Sheriff's house, there is a Strength Bobble head (STR +1) that you can get with Avg lockpick skills, pickpocketing the house key, or killing him).
