Street Fighter 4 PC - The best version of the best fighting game. Bionic Commando 2009 - Extremely underrated game Fallout 3 - Having to start again after an unavoidable HD format is heartbreaking. Cryostasis - Just started after finally having a computer powerful enough to actually run it. Already shitting me up. Call Of Juarez Bound In Blood - Best western on the PC.
I play several games at a time (which sucks... because I tend to get the stories mixed up... well unless I have beaten the game before)
Fable 2 (Xbox 360)
Shenmue (Dreamcast)
Skies of Arcadia Legends (Gamecube... although I'm playing it on my wii)
Tales of Phantasia- Fan Translation (SNES-ROM) *I have the GBA version... but the translation sucked*
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64 ROM) *I do have the cartridge though*
Wallace & Gromit: The Last Resort (PC)
The costume shop would be rather in in LeChuck's Revenge, I guess, not in the first game.
BTW, in the old Secret of Monkey Island, is that Max in the picture in the Scumm Bar kitchen? Looks a bit like it.
(BTW, I thought the SE of the game we ok, but the original is much more playable with the verb interface close by...., and for me personally, the old graphics had a real feel-good effect to me, whereas the new ones looked a bit...je ne sais quoi, and the dialogue was not as I had imagined it for 20 years, :mad: lol, I guess I am too old for this )
Nope the kitchen picture is the Pillsbury Doughboy.
I am currently playing 3 skulls of the toltecs, which is the prequel to the westerner (wanted: a wild western adventure), 3 skulls is the first in the Fenimore Fillmore series of games. You can find links here.

Download the 5 part rar, forget the other version. Mount the folder and run install from dosbox then run 3skulls.bat or you may not be able to get sound. Copy the english.pdi folder into the installed folder with 3skulls.bat for the next time you play, mount the installed folder next time you play.
Also I have been playing the Valhalla games. I used to love playing these on the Amiga. Get them from here and support the company. The first episode is free to try out.
Was playing some old Dreamcast games the other day, Shenmue, Sonic Adventure International Edition. Also was going to restart Skies of Arcandia on GC, but I never did. Oh well, was playing Sid Meier's Pirates yesterday, since it was only of the only games i've reinstalled since Vista was wiped. xD
I cracked out the old DS games recently (I bought the new green DS lite that came with a purse-thing and cooking trainer game. The irony of this amuses me greatly.)
I found myself playing "Battle of Giants: Dinosaurs" by Ubisoft. It was a gamble, I wasn't sure if it would be a good game or not.
But I LOVE it.
You have a little dinosaur, you drag him around the screen to explore, attack other dinosaurs, and drink water. It's like this game was MADE for me.
I'm going to one-up the pair of you and actually include a link to it! Here you go. LucasFan actually had to shut down over this game, which is a shame.
I'm now playing:
Half-Life mods (still)
Secret Agent Clank (PS2)
Asterix at the Olympic Games (Wii)
I'm playing Disgaea DS, eventually Disgaea 3 once they get the trophy patch and DLC out here.
Went through Monkey Island 2 on easy mode yesterday, because I'd heard Wally puts out a candle in an amusing way and had to see for myself. It's amazing how it misses out nearly every puzzle in easy (beat it in about 40 minutes).
Just started playing Mata Hari and it is gorgeous so far. Not much of an adventure game in regards to the puzzles, but still, it looks and plays amazingly well.
As always, I am trying to beat Valkyria Chronicles for the PS3 but it seems to eat up a whole day from my life as soon as I sit down with it, so it rarely happens.
I'm just after playing through Heart of the Alien, the sequel to Another World. (Out of this World) It could have been as good as the first with a little work. On top of that they killed off the main character from the first game, ensuring no more sequels. Another World in a 3d environment would be awesome, just don't mention the sequel to Flashback, made in the experimental days of 3d. Get Heart of the Alien here. http://interlinkknight.googlepages.com/downloads
PS2: Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga 1 - quite a dark rpg, it's a little cruel (one slip up and you can get pwned quickly) but a lot of fun, just like all the other Megaten games I've played. I'm in an old castle, just solved the prince potrait puzzle.
PSP: Recently finished the Japanese version of Dissidia Final Fantasy. I started a new game on Star Ocean 2, but I have a feeling it'll be dumped when the English version of Dissidia appears in a few weeks. Awesome action rpg (sensing a theme yet?)
DS: Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2 - I started this ages ago and left it for Pokemon Platinum and FF4. Up to the Crystal Cave I think it is. I forgot how addicting this game can be.
Xbox360: Star Ocean the Last Hope - Gorgeous game, love it. I'm supposed to be off to En II but I'm caught up in the Colosseum working on Battle Trophies. ^_^
Picked up Uncharted cheap the other day, so I've been playing through that again.
Littlebigplanet's still getting a good hour or so every day.
Disgaea DS I've just hit the 25 hours mark on, bit stuck at the minute though.
Prinny, I'm giving up on for a while because my nerves can't take any more, and I should be doing work anyway.
I'm close to playing Curse of Monkey Island again, but I should really get this work done before I start any more games.
And I was playing Dragon Quest VIII but I'm a tad stuck on that too, near the end.
I've been going back and forth between Beyond Good & Evil and Left 4 Dead, although recently it's been more L4D because the Slaughterhouse level in BG&E is really annoying.

Pretty sure that's supposed to resemble the Pillsbury dough boy.

And I might buy Shatter off the PSN soon.

research and development :tup:
Can't wait to start building up my DLC collection. I've got my eye on those RHCP tracks...
* Empire: Total War, currently unpatriotically shooting my own people as the upstart Americans.

And now I have Siege of Spinner Cay too!
Picked up the Half Life 2 series recently, finished EP2 last weekend.
Installed Siege of Spinner Cay yesterday, so I'll be spending some free time on that now
