Recently beat Game Dev Story which was really fun and addicting.
As for my next game, I have been wanting to play Darksiders. I may pick it up today and whittled away at it over the next few weeks. A dark zelda game sounds like fun to me.
Last game I beat was Dead Space 2. I loved the 1st but this did nothing for me. I'm now playing Cthuhlu Saves the World on the 360. Fantastic old school RPG from the makers of Breath of Death VII.
I'd picked it up and put it down a few times since release, turns out I only had about 3 hours left until I reached the end. Took me almost exactly 20 hours according to the Stats page.
I wish I could get lost in a few games, but I can't seem to want to play right now. I played a little Dark Siders and it was fun, but it isn't pulling me back. I played GT5 for a little bit last week. The countless things wrong with that game make me so mad though. I literally have to grind races that I have already done to get enough experience to move on to new races. Horrible, Horrible. I threw in Forza 3. What a much better experience. GT5 makes you work for the fun, Forza 3 says "here bro, have all the fun you want, at any setting you want."
GT5 is such a failure. I want to like it so bad because the driving is great and the premium cars look really good.
I had that same problem with nothing being fun so I took 2 weeks off of all gaming and now I've been playing Two Worlds 2 which I don't know about the single player but I've had a blast playing the co-op adventure mode.

I do not know what is wrong with me. I havent been able to complete any games in ages. No matter how much I like it. I get bored or just do not want to play it even after being hyped for a game, buying it and letting it sit. Especially FPS styles.
I really like Dead Space 2, but it is falling under the same condition and I am barely into the game!
I noticed this with most of the games I buy... Just Cause 2, L4D2, Metro 2033, Fallout NV, Dead Rising 2, Borderlands, etc etc...
This is just so sad. I used to love FPS and play them all night...
Sigh... This is just wrong!

Finished NFS Hot Pursuit, was impressed with Graphics and the way the cars handled. Like the option of being the Cops. Was not impressed with doing the same routes over and over again.. Was hoping the had a better Free Roam System where you could race other drivers and stuff. Game I am looking forward to is GW2..
Finally got back to and beat BioShock. Went the all good route. I liked it, the ending was abrupt, but I understand why. Love the style of the game. Played through on hard and didn't have much issue.
Now playing Bioshock 2. Who in the FR#*(&)@#@ thought it would be a good plan to change the default layout of all the buttons between one game and the next? Not to mention, if you change your key bindings, they don't take "full" effect.
Key binding example/rant
Spoiler
For example, "E" was use/open/interact/etc in Bioshock. It's now "F" in the new game (which was first aid in the first game). Changed the binding back to "E" and set the binding for First Aid to "F". First time I hacked anything it said "Press E when the arrow is in the green section" I was hammering on "E" the entire time, did nothing. So I tried "F" which used all my First Aid kits. Reloaded the save, and tried again, same result. Reset the key bindings to default and everything works exactly like the on screen instructions say ("Press F" and pressing F actually works.)
I'm trying to get used to the default keys, since it seems I cannot change them successfully. It's just frustrating as hell.

Beat Bulletstorm. Absolutely loved it, the game is made of 100% pure fun.
Next up I might try unlocking the last few skillshots I had missed on my first playthrough (I missed only 6 of them!) and play around with the Echoes. Other than that I'm going to get started on Pokemon Black next week and put my focus on going through Dragon Age Origins so I can play Dragon Age 2.
I agree with Bulletstorm, I finished it this morning and I absolutely loved it. I plan on playing through it again just to have more fun owning bad guys. I am also waiting on DA2, thats the next game I'm gonna pick up.

Currently playing my 3rd playthrough of Dragon Age Origins.
Before that I played DAO a second time and pretty much all the DLC with my first playthrough character.
The DLC is something that Bioware will have to work on a lot, a lot. ME and DA's DLC have been pretty disappointing to me. They're all on the short side, don't bring much to either story and gameplay. Worth playing though but not worth their full price.
Since my first character was a goody two shoes I decided to go evil the second time and was disapointed by the way it's handled in the game. With the exception of Wynne's defection no character mind your choices unless they're actually here when you make them. Moreover while ME's renegade choices felt thought out and actually gave you motivations to choose them, DAO's evil choices often made me feel like a comic book villain, doing "bad" stuff because the character is a tiny bit psycho (desecrating the Urn for next to no reasons, having to convince the bad guys to be bad in the brecilian forest, no real good motivations given to keep the Anvil of the Void while there's plenty that comes to mind, why let Uldred corrupt all the mages just to kill them?).
It's not that big a spot on a quasi flawless painting though. I wish they took inspiration from that game for ME3 rather than take inspiration from ME 2 for DA2 but hopefully what I like in DAO will still be there (story and characters over gameplay).
