Ever since my 360 starting freezing shortly after Christmas and it took months for any new ones to show up in stores, I haven't really touched it. Recently, though, I dusted it off and have been trying to catch up on some games. Right now, I'm trying to finish Bioshock.
I really enjoy the game, but the chopping off some of the screen bugs me after a while. On the PS3 front, I'm still trying to finish off MGS4 and GTAIV. So many games, so little time. . .

PtRyno - totally agreed on Assassin's Creed - initial experience is awesome, but the game is incredibly repetitive. Bummer, because it had huge potential.

that is what I read in the reviews as well... I need to at least rent it and try it though I guess.

It's an awesome rental. I agree with it being super impressive in the short term and a bit tiring in the long term.

I just started Assassin's Creed and I'm just past the point where the first town is being threatened by the "other guy" (haven't played it enough to know his name) and I just did the high dive into some straw. That's it. So I've got at least a little bit of enjoyable play time left with it.
I haven't played any Unreal game in years, but the gaming community that I am a member of (EcS Gaming) has some people that play it. Seems like VERY fast gameplay.

I was playing Mythos for a while but got tired of it. Now I'm on a brief gaming hiatus until the new releases in September.
I've been playing early versions of Mount&Blade for a while, and the final version finally comes out in September. Spore is also coming out in September, so I will be playing that as well. Followed by Starcraft2 and Diablo3, whenever they come out. I'm pretty much a PC gamer, but do have a PS2 and occasionally do console games (Guitar Hero and Gran Turismo 4 most recently) |

Anyone else play the Star Wars: The Force Unleashed demo. I've never been one to get into any of the star wars games but thought I'd give her a go. I was surprised how much I enjoyed it. Pretty simple game but the different forces, especially the grab one, can really amount to some entertaining kills; I may need a session with the doc after that one.

I haven't downloaded the demo yet, but I've been looking forward to seeing how it turned out. I should download the demos on both the 360 and PS3 to see how both versions run.

Man... It isn't coming out for the PC! I guess I could get it for my Wii, but the graphics won't be as good. Of course, I could potentially (haven't checked into it at all yet) be able to use the Wii Remote as a lightsaber...

Yeah, I think they're making up for the simpler graphics and physics with the fun lightsaber control.
