The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess mainly. I always play it around this time of year, so I'm keeping that tradition alive.
I'm also dabbling in Pokemon X and Y. I finished a play through of my copy of Y, while building my favorite team in X for some competitive battles. Still waiting on Pokemon Bank too. :/

I'm on a JRPG binge since Christmas and I've finished these particular games since then: Persona 3 FES, Persona 4, Xenoblade Chronicles. I've also finished Metal Gear Rising Revengeance on PC yesterday and it was very fun.
Currently playing: SMT Nocturne (almost at the end, currently grinding to do the TDE ending).
Games in that list that are waiting for me to play: Kingdom Hearts 1,CE,2; Okami; SMT Digital Devil Saga 1&2; Pandora's Tower; The Last Story; Odin's Sphere; Muramasa The Demon Blade; Monster Hunter Tri; Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn.
Myeah, I'm going to be busy for a while. Let's not add the games that are getting released this month.
Captcha: Seems legit..yup.

While I do have an incredible talent for pulling things out of my sphincter that sound extremely good, I did know a fair bit about the game from Extra Credits and reviews and whatnot.MarsAtlas said:
The White Phosphorous section was one thing I had heard enough about to base some arguments on. I also knew it was based on Heart Of Darkness, so I had the opportunity to babble about literature and Apocalypse Now for a bit.
I'm just Manning up on tf2 and starting a Rohan campaign in the Divide and Conquer Third Age mod for Total War: Medieval 2 Kingdoms.
I've bought the Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Extended Edition last week and I've just finished it on Normal, Roche's Path. Now I'm planning to start again on Dark Mode and see how the storyline goes with Iorveth.
My opinion, in general, is that I quite like it. The storyline is neat and compelling, not too epic but still grand (no stupid "you're the chosen one, now go save the world"), it's mostly meddling in the politics between a bunch of quarelling nobles and mages. The combat is fast and challenging, enemy variation is great (even though I would've loved a few more "epic" monsters like the Kayran, ones that require careful planning and tactics to defeat). It's pretty long, even though Act III felt a little bit rushed, but nevermind that.
Finally, I'm pretty hyped for the Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt mostly because Act III just left so many things open like:
And seeing as how it ain't coming on the Xbox 360, this means that I'll really have to invest in a solid gaming PC in the foreseeable future.

how will they stop the Nilfgaardian invasion with most of the Northern monarchs being either dead or disorganized?
Where will Geralt go or what will he do next? What role will the Wild Hunt play in the Witcher 3? What will happen to the mages after Triss revealed the existence of the Lodge? What will Geralt's role be in the Nilfgaardian invasion etc....

Bet Echo Night, now I'm playing Dino Crisis. The PS roller-coaster is fun and weird. Everything feels so... "gamey". Not sure how to call it. Remember when "saving" the game was an issue? Like if you died the game didn't just spawn you from the last checkpoint - there were, in fact, no checkpoints? Everything was for real? Fun times.
I'm bouncing between Mass Effect, Tales of Xillia and Nier. I'm trying to focus more on Mass Effect because the only trophies I have left are the Asari/Turian/Krogan Ally trophies.
Currently playing some Dota 2 with friends. Same old experience as always, just more fun with friends. =P
I've also picked up Mark of the Ninja and holy shit is that game good. 2D stealth platformer sounds rather boring, but good god is it fun to play.
I should really go back and replay some 2D classics...

That's good to hear, to be honest I was interested in picking up a PS4 soon so I could play it but I was put off by all the comments people had. I'm glad to hear that it's still making people happy, I might reconsider now.TheYellowCellPhone said:
Redlin, a lot is an understatement. You are putting some serious time into tanks fighting other tanks. I mean serious time. If it was measured in wars, it'd be more than have ever actually taken place.Redlin5 said:I'm playing lots of WoT as usual but I just started playing Pokemon Black 2 due to reasons some of you might know well.
Add me on steam! It's always good to find more Escapees to play DotA with.thesilentman said:

My Steam profile is on my profile here, just add me when you get the chance if I can't find you.
Right now I'm playing GTA V (second playthrough), Minecraft (first playthrough), and Final Fantasy IX (umpteenth playthrough). All on the PS3.
I'm planning one more half-assed GTA V playthrough of doing stupid shit, fucking up heists for laughs and squandering everybody's money on frivolities before starting a fresh save file and doing everything "by the (guide)book", getting as much money as I possibly can, with the ultimate goal of owning every purchasable business on the map. [small]And two Z-types per character. Natch.[/small]
As for Minecraft, I'm pretty much just digging a very deep hole. So far, I've found some iron and a zombie. Fun!
And on good old IX, I'm going to save the world, get the girl and the biggest sword [small](Oooh... Sexy sword...)[/small], and beat everybody and their grandmother at card games. As I always do.
And maybe finally get around to taking a serious whack at optional, hidden uber-boss Ozma. Yeah. I got a bit tired of optional, hidden uber-bosses after Final Fantasy VII, with Ruby [small]"I KILL YOU WITH QUICKSAND"[/small] Weapon this and Emerald [small]"I'M UNDERWATER LOL"[/small] Weapon that, but IX is my favourite FF of the bunch. I want to have tried everything it has to offer at least once!

my most recent game was the director's cut of "Deadly Premonition" for the PS3.
All I can say is...wow. o.o I didn't know what I was in the mood to play when I popped that game into my system... but it definitely scratched some kind of itch. I highly recommend it.
the game was like playing Persona 4 by way of Silent Hill, with a little crime noir thrown in and a healthy dose of self-parody. Before I knew it I had put 45 hours into the game, got the platinum trophy, and felt a little sad to be leaving.

Just got my PC working (with help from somebody on this forum, mr IOC), while it was broken I bought a few games on steam so I have been dabbling on them to give them a little whirl.
Most of my time has been spent on xcom enemy within, which has been kicking my fucking ass! I played most of the vanilla game on easy with very little trouble, I am playing on easy now and soldiers are dying left and right, panic levels are rising like fucking crazy.
How the fuck people play on impossible is like how Koreans play starcraft, not possible!

Spelunky and State of Decay (a couple of Steam sale purchases). I've been really enjoying both of them in 30-120 minute bursts over the past few days.
Thinking about starting Rome 2 later today also.
