So far I've only started Mario & Luigi, and its a lot of fun. Hope to get into some Uncharted 2 multiplayer tomorrow. I remember the beta was great, and from what I've heard the full game is amazing.
Let me know how Uncharted 2 is. I was thinking of using part of my Christmas money to buy it along with a second PS 3 controller.

I've been playing New Super Mario Bros Wii ever since I got it for Christmas and I can't get enough of it. Beileve it or not, I love Nintendo just as much as Disney. :D

This is a very fun and addicting game! I can't wait to play it with my sister and a couple of others all at the same time. Why, I'll probably play it with my mom too. She is the only parent I know that played through Super Mario World completely with all the secret levels, including the special world. 8)

New Super Mario Bros Wii is also pretty challenging. Although I didn't truly get stuck on a certain level because I'm a Mario veteran, there were some levels that looked very intimidating and tricky. For anyone who played it to that one point, did you see what was in the World 6 fortress? :jawdrop:

Wii Resort is probably my most favorite game right now. The 100-pin bowling game is a real hoot!!! Enjoy the sword-fighting and all the water games. The wave runners are really maneuverable and just a whole lot of fun.

Need For Speed Shift! is my current favorite game on PS3. It is very true to what happens when you are traveling at a high rate of speed and hit something. I am having a lot of fun with this one.

:D

World 6 is easy try world 8. Really damn hard, though fighting bowser is easy. I'm at the world 9, the secret world.

I've been playing Zelda Spirit Tracks, and although Ocarina of Time is still my favourite Zelda, I would have to say this comes really close. I haven't played a Zelda since Oracle of Seasons, that I have the urge to play. It's so fun and addicting.

I've also been playing New Super Mario Bros. I play with my brother and sister, and we never stop laughing. It's one of the most fun games I've ever played. It's a great group game and on top of that challenging. My brother and sister don't really get along, but with this, they don't stop laughing with each other :D!!

I've also just finished the God of War collection on PS3, and I can see why they were named some of PS2's greatest games. Story is Amazing!!

I just pulsed through about 4 hrs. of Assassin's Creed. Wow, what a workout, and I didn't even get up that often. The exploration/free-roam is intense in that game. I can see why people like it.

I have been playing Animal Crossing: Wild World and Okami on my Wii the past couple of days. On the PlayStation 2, I cannot stop playing The Game of Life and Grand Theft Auto III.

Still playing New Super Mario Bros. Wii and I'm loving it! :D

The levels aren't intimidating anymore, not even the giant drill in the World 6 fortress. It's a blast to play it with my sister.

Super Aurora, I never thought World 6 was hard. I was just totally taken off guard by the giant drills in the fortress. I already got through World 8 and the only level I thought was hard was the underwater cave level with the jellyfish and darkness. Right now I'm trying to hunt down star coins so I can unlock the World 9 levels. I opened the first level and I'm trying to go through it by the order of worlds.

I've heard some bad things about World 9-7. Have you unlocked that yet? The star coins are pretty easy to find in World 7 but I've heard people say that it's the hardest level in the game.

Not there yet.

I wish this game had Roselina. Starting to become my favorite Mario character. I'm her all the time in Mario Kart Wii.

Anyway tonight My friends and I played bit of the Super Mario Bros Wii and we played Super Smash Bros Brawl. Beat the crapped outta my friends with Snake and Ness. Working on improving my skills on Zero-suit Samus.

I love Super Smash Bros Brawl! I've spent more time playing that game than any other. I checked my Brawl records and so far I've spent 677 hours playing it these past two years. My favorite character is Pit, followed by Donkey Kong, Mario, Wario, Diddy Kong, and King Dedede. The number of KOs I made as Pit and Donkey Kong is huge. I often beat my sister in the game because I do so much practice.

I love Mario Kart Wii too. I often race as Mario in his Wild Wing, Wario on his Wario Bike, or Donkey Kong in the Flame Runner. I have a lot of good times playing online.

Rosalina is a good character. I especially find her storybook in Super Mario Galaxy touching. Hopefully she'll be in Super Mario Galaxy 2.

She will.

As for Brawl, one character I wish was playable in the game was Ray MK III from Custom Robo. At least he became an assist trophy but would of made a better playable character.

Played Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. Freakin' sweet! I'm thinking of turning off the computer and playing some more. The strategy guide I bought has been a BIG help. I would have still been stuck in the burning train wreckage if not for the strategy guide. :lol:

Prinny: Can I Really Be the Hero? makes me want to throw my PSP against the wall at times.

Fun game, but insanely frustrating at the same time.

Well, I'm 10 hours (approx) into Dragon Age: Origins on the PS3 (check out my progress on http://social.bioware.com/playerprofile ... =208992303 - Yes, "Liegerstorm" is back!).

Graphics are a little ropey (sometimes in the cut scenes, you think you're watching Thunderbirds due to their plastic-looking most immobile skin and arms hinged at the elbows) and a little jerkey in-game, but frankly graphics don't matter one jot when the characters are so good. Even some disappointing voice acting doesn't really distract you (and not all the voices are poor).

I'm not kidding, I've laughed, (almost) cried, heckled, hissed and cheered at the personalities you find in this game - it has everything from budding romances to turncoat would-be-kings. And like Bioware's Mass Effect, the world they've crafted for these characters to inhabit is so detailed, it only serves to make the characters more real.

Dragon Age: Origins is a huge improvement over Mass Effect to when it comes to side-quests. Each side quest seems unique and interesting. And it appears everything you do has consequences later in the game. Even a little harmless side-quest may have repercussions which bite you in the bum later on. And there's already been a couple of instances where I've had to chose the lesser or two evils!

So Dragon Age: Origins gets 9/10 so far. No make that 10/10 because as well as a deep and involving narrative and fully rounded characters, it also has a cheesy 80's rock ballad type song all about war on the credits screen, which is brilliant simply because its totally inappropriate (the rest of the music is orchestral, and somewhat Celtic)!
