360: Fallout 3 Broken Steel: Mopping up the remnants and visiting the places I haven't been yet.

Resident Evil 5 on PS3, not rushing, it's more or less an action game, haven't gotten stuck yet, kind of ashamed to admit that I am prefering the new more action oriented gameplay more fun than running 40 load screens to turn a statue from North to south, to run 50 load screens to twist a lever and then open a door another 20 load screens away.

Madworld Wii - It's quite amusing. Fairly mindless, but entertaining and I like the art style.

Multi player: UFC demo, Killzone 2 and I recently dl'd a big MAME pack again and have been playing some beat em ups with mates.

Get ready to wet your pants. Not so much ambitious but it sounds like it's going to be huge.

Resident Evil 5. I really didn't dig it much at first but I figured I would give myself a chance to get used to it. The more I play it, the more I like it.

I've also been playing Fable 2, GTA 4, Ace Combat 6 and Mercenaries 2 off and on.

Finished 007 Quantum of Solace. Good stuff, although in the end I all but stopped using cover and just "run and gun-ed" it.

Wolverine is fun as well, but not sure it's a title that could hold my attention for too long a time during a sitting. I'll use it to break up any monotony that may develop since I started Fallout 3 finally.

Going to have to scrap my Fallout 3 game. I got drunk last night and accidentally shot a fucking two headed cow, which in turn caused some guy to attack me, so I killed him, which in turn caused half the town to attack me. Not just the nameless scrubs, by characters with names and dialogue trees. After slaughtering them all the game auto saved on me. I already put the kibosh on Nuking Megaton, so this all became useless. I did sleep with that hooker, though. I'll restart Fallout 3 after beating another game, I think.

Started playing Call of Duty: World at War, which is the WWII one they put out after Modern Combat. I have to say this game has really good looking graphics. I was taken back a little by how nice it all looked. Jack Bauer versus a bunch of no good Nips. I like it., yet, I need to go finish Riddick first, I've made up my mind.

Hmm...

Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror is pretty good
Ace Combat X is probably the best Ace Combat made as far as gameplay options (if you like flight sims)
Resistance: Retribution is decent
God of War: Chains of Olympus is a must-own

Other than that, I haven't played many non-Skyclad games for that system. However, I did recently buy a 16 gb memory stick for it and I've been taking advantage of the new ability to copy Playstation Store movies to it.

As I read this, all I could picture was Roland slaughtering the entire village of Tull in The Gunslinger.

I was wearing a cowboy hat and leather coat which I took off a dead body. I mostly used a sawed off shotgun, and pistol. I shot a man up on high dead from a far with a rifle.

And that, my friends, is how the West was won.

It's not so bad, but getting leeches off becomes annoyingly redundant.

suppressor decay isn't that big of a deal. i don't think it ever affected me. neither was fatigue that much. just keep eating animals and you'll be fine. but if you keep them in your inventory for too long, they spoil and will make you sick

did you get MGS3 or MGS3: Subsistence?

MGS3S might be my all time favorite game depending on how i feel that day...

Do you just only let it autosave or something? I occasionally make new saves randomly so I have reference points to go back to if I need to. It really helps in cases like that....like the one time I slaughtered the entirety of Rivet City just because I wanted to kill that drunk bitch with the little kid running around. I figured, she was such a poor excuse for a mom, that I would kill her in her sleep, but I didnt have that perk yet, so I just powerfisted her face.

Then everyone hated me and I killed them.
That took a long time to get out of there.

MG2 and MG3 should both be Subsistence versions.
