I just flew into St. Louis today to visit my dad. Thus, today has been PC Game nostalgia day:
Baldur's Gate II
Starcraft
I've also got Age of Mythology, Warcraft III, Rise of Nations, Alien v. Predator 2, System Shock 2.... the list goes on :letsparty:

Finally playing Guild Wars again.

Bought "Tales of Symphonia" for GameCube yesterday, but haven't got a chance to play it yet. Looking forward to it, though.

Playing Baldur's Gate II again. I still maintain it is the best RPG ever made *ducks the combined assaults of thousands of Chrono Trigger fans*

I think this is the first xmas in years that I haven't gotten any games. Well, if you count the new DDR game I got, then I still get some games but the point remains.

Helping my 8 year old playing Guild wars - maybe I will get to play someday...

Monster Rancher. Kind of fun, in a small way. Then I'm going to re-play Wild Arms - I got quite a long way, then my memory card was mysteriously wiped. Gah!

F.E.A.R. rocks! you need a Dolby sound system cranked up, like Doom 3, to REALLY enjoy it. :R They consulted with John Carpenter on it too. Very spooky, and I thought the weapon/enemy variations were cool enough, but it had its drawbacks too, needs some polishing, but I DO hope they make another one. 8)

Also playing Need for Speed Most Wanted, and it is da bomb! I have all the NFS games from day 1, and they get better everytime. It's so darn fast I get out of breath and muscle cramps fer cripes sake. wheew! 8O

That happened to my memory card as well. I lost all my Final Fantasy game data and V Story and Front Mission 3.

I've been playing a fair bit of Halo since Christmas. Though I think I kind of raced through it, and now all of a sudden I'm stuck. I hate those Flood guys because they take loads of ammo to kill, and don't drop any.

And also Killer7. Which is a bit weird. I think I like it, but... weird.

I have heard about Killer7. Capcom game. In Resident Evil 4, there is a gun called Killer7 and it is meant to be a sub gun for the sub game Killer7. What is it like?

Playing Baldur's Gate II..... that's why I haven't been to the watch in two days. That game just sucks you in.
