Still playing Oblivion, just finished the main Shivering Isles quest.

Also figured out I can play Guitar Hero 3 on a control pad! I've seriously damaged my back and can't move enough to play the plastic guitars but this will give me my rhythm kicks. I've decided to hone my controller skills by gold staring all of easy and then, hopefully, normal. I can play Hard on the guitars but think I'll give it a miss for a while on the x-pad. The main challenge here will be five staring, never mind gold staring, Normal Reign of Fire. Tis a bitch.

Someone has lent me the new Midnight Club so will be having a gander on that soon.

In co-op gaming news, I'm playing through Gears of War split screen with my missus. She seems to like it and I'm enjoying it as well. Odd to think that it has been on my shelf for about a year and I haven't even played past the second chapter.

As I have huge amounts of (pain filled and drugged) free time and no money whatsoever at the moment I'm taking the time to work on some achivements across all of my games. I should have the 1250 for Oblivion very soon. Next up I think I might work on the rest of the points in Burnout Paradise.

Finally I need to actually sit down with Ninja Gaiden 2 for more than 5 minutes at a time. It just seems less complete and more frustrating than NG Black which I hold very dear.

Just spent a good few hours on Eternal Darkness (just got it), and when I died for the first time a few hours in I discover that the game doesn't auto-save ANYTHING. I died and it just spit me back to the title screen. I thought it would at least have some checkpoints or something. My only save was very early, so now I have a few hours to replay. Talk about lame. They could have warned you about this stuff before you start, but then the game is all about mindfucking the player and breaking the 4th wall to do so, and this is actually in character for this game. Still annoying.

Oboru Muramasa for the Wii.
It's awesome.

SFIV, TF2 and Bomberman Live I guess. But I'm always playing Bomberman Live so it may as well not even count.

Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber. Near the end of the game.

I am playing R-Type Tactics!!!!!
I even bought it at an airport, planning to play it on a plane, and then I hadn't enough battery power to update the firmware, fuck them

I was expecting so much from the graphics... but they're quite crap. The grid is sloppy and blurry, while the cutscenes are quite cool. I'd have preferred a nice and sleek tactical screen and less attention to useless details like cutscenes.

I cannot wait til this arrives in the USA… I enjoyed Odin Sphere and this game look great as well… Its the one game on the Wii that I have wanted in a long while…

For me,
I've just been playing some XBLA games (Pac Man CE, Mr Driller)
and
some stuff on NES and SMS (Outrun, Afterburner, Chubby Cherub, City Connection)
