I started Mercenaries 2, so I hope to put in some time on that one. Maybe a little Horde Mode on Gears 2 as well. And I need to get in some more time on my DS too, perhaps some New Super Mario Bros or repeated dying in Contra 4.

I also recently picked up Mercenaries 2, so I'll be putting in time on that. I also want to put some more time into Uncharted. I also need to sit down and play the Halo Wars and Killzone 2 demos this weekend.

CoD5 multiplayer if the patch brings any players to servers. Currently there are pretty much no players in non-fast XP HQ servers.
Also Space Rangers 2: Reboot.

Not really doing much video gaming. I keep thinking about installing Eve and giving the trial a go, so that might happen. Other than that, I'm finishing up painting some Warmachine miniatures and will be playing some of that.

I finished Call of Duty: United Offensive yesterday, and started on Jericho today. Guess I'll be playing that as well as trying to finish Onimusha 3. Stuck on the last boss, and even with all my stuff maximized I still can't kill that motherfucker! Weird, since the rest of the game was easy.

some updated burnout!

Afro Samurai. It's linear, but extremely fun. Platforming is strangely missing an anchor. The way you interface with the environment is well behind the curve. Immagine the micro-corrections that Ubi platformers make (A la Prince and Assasin's). Those are not only absent, but any/all course mistakes= instant fail. Sammy's a great voice actor though: he and RZA make the experience really worthwhile.

May go back to Mercs 2. Or Fable 2.

I'm going to finally complete BioShock. On hard. And hopefully without dying.
This is the furthest I've gotten into it. So here's hoping!

I've been playing Dead Space before going to bed a couple of times last week. I make sure there are no lights on and I use high-end headphones for maximum immersion.
The game somehow got into my dreams several times! Unpleasant dreams I should say. :eek:
The last time I've dreamt of video game worlds is when I was 5 or 6 years old playing Ultima III on the Commodore 64. I had nightmares and I was afraid to go to the bathroom during the night. The C64 was on a table in the living room, on the way to the bathroom. I was afraid some monster was going to eat me alive and trap me forever into the computer! :D
Dead Space is just too awesome I guess! I'm trying to play it during the day so it doesn't invade my dreams :rolleyes:

Well I don't dream about being the main character in the game, it just influences on what I dream about.
In one of the dreams I was a futuristic nano-augmented guy in a mall with some of my friends. Aliens attacked the mall and killed every human except the augmented ones (me and my friends). The aliens/terrorists tried to convert us into aliens. Somehow just before being converted I had a teleport switch on my hips and it teleported me back home. I called the police but they were already there, and they were aliens too!
In the other dream I was alone in a space ship, drifting away. There were no monsters but I was really sad and disturbed about the fact of being alone forever in this ship and not being able to go back to Earth to see my friends, ex-girlfriend and loved ones. I was thinking about my dead mother and how I should join her finally.
I got hospitalized for a few days 2 weeks ago for Graves' Disease so it might have affected my dreams too. But the sci-fi theme is probably from playing Dead Space too much!

I will continue what I have been playing this whole week.
That is, my new copy of Fable II, which I love to bits. I keep trying to compare it to my overly loved Oblivion, but Fable II really is the winner here. I just love the economy and all the character customisation, which doesn't impact your stats so you can just wear something else than Daedric armor all the time because it's the best.
Apart from that I have been playing Burnout Paradise for the PC. Yeah.. PC.. I'm just playing it for PC because all my friends have it on PC and well.. free online anyone?
I'm however playing with the Xbox 360 controller so it plays just like the xbox version but with better graphics ;)
I'm also loving the whole open world 'do whatever you want' gameplay just cruising around listening to some Rebel FM, very enjoyable.

More Dead Rising, of course....
and I think I'm going to dive into the original Skate right now.
I just played through the single-player of Haze.
It was short but actually not awful. The last 5 levels were pretty good.

Finishing up CronoTrigger on my DS since my Xbox just red-ringed last weekend.
