   Playing Cthulhu Saves The World on PC. Pretty fun little RPG with a silly sense of humor and rather solid, old school FF gameplay. It doesn't cost a lot so if you wanna support an indie developer, you can pick it up via Steam of the Xbox Live Indie Games section.

   Speaking of Steam, just bought 'Bit.Trip.Runner'.

   I've never had such a love/hate relationship with a game.

   So many swears along the way but it is genuinely rewarding to go through.

   Been blasting through loads of old games before i get rid of them. Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga, Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and Vanquish are the ones I've ticked off so far.

   Just bought Borderlands GOTY Edition for 13 quid online so hopefully i can rinse a couple more games before that arrives.

   Playing From Dust at the moment. It is straddling the line between frantic and dull. Very conflicting game.

   Jim, what was that game you told me to get again?

   Also, me and Ed are filming "The Blurb" tomorrow which is a video game show on Challenge TV and is going to be on in 2 weeks.

   We are worried we won't be cool enough so what cool things can we say?

   And also the Nintendo magazine hasn't been out yet, we just done the interview.

   And the Edinburgh Fringe starts on 3rd August but you did a lovely mention for us on your podcast which brilliantly left everyone else on there speechless.

   Ray:

   1) Shadows of the Damned.

   2) Mention that you're looking forward to The Last Story on Wii for some cult gamer street cred.

   3) Yeah, I figured I'd have gotten the Edinburgh shit wrong, sorry. Hopefully it got some good promotion in some capacity though.

   Just about to finish my second run through of Mass Effect 2. It remains my favourite game of the current console generation. Superb in virtually every way. Roll on March and the last part of the trilogy.

    Just seen posts about Shadows of the Damned, No More Heores AND Mass Effect 2.

    If anything, this forum has good taste in videogames.

    Been playing Call of Juarez: The Cartel for a review.

    Do not, under any circumstances, play Call of Juarez: The Cartel.

    I'll steer clear Jim, thanks!

    Ohh man... I'm "playing" quite a few games at the moment, or at least trying.
    Really enjoyed GT5 for a bit
    Moved onto Fable 3 (didn't start well, so I've left that for a bit)
    Started Deadly Premonition (looks to be amazing!)
    Also started The World Ends With You (seriously cool, but haven't played much yet)
    Bought the Breath of Death and Cthulu pack on Steam (am yet to play either)
    and to top it all off I've been playing a ton of Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness!

    Basically, I've got too much time and (had) a little too much money...

    Loving Eternal Sonata. I haven't played a good, new JRPG in forever.

    Am SO excited to play Deus Ex: Human Revolution this Friday. Especially since I've seen that Jim Sterling has himself some kind of reviewer copy and it was good enough to warrant a whole episode of Jimquisition...

    But mainly because I've been waiting for a second Deus Ex game for about 10 years.

    Got Deus Ex today for half-price. Starting it right now.

    Despite the goofy Canadians-trying-to-sound-serious voice acting and the load times, Deus Ex is pretty good.

    Been away on a couple of conferences but in between times I was playing Braid, Limbo and Portal 2.

    Braid is genius, I have completed it once, now going back to try some other things in it.

    Limbo just scares me because I am a big girl with spiders and the big on in the game freaked the hell out of me.

    and portal 2 is portal 2, great game, great puzzles.

    Oh I managed to pick up Borderlands GOTY in the steam sale so I've played a bit of that too, I'm not 100% on it yet, but it's entertaining enough. Also just sorting out an alpha copy of project zomboid I have, I hope it is good. Check it out.

    Deus Ex is, as I expected, the best game that has come out in the last few years.

    Deus Ex's gameplay is very realistic, but it makes it very hard sometimes. I'm shit at being stealthy, so I find I keep plowing through and killing everyone.

    Oh well that's probably fair enough. However stealth is my favourite thing in a game ever so I've not really been having too many problems... :)

    Beat Deus Ex a few days ago. It was nice. I'll probably like it better when I replay it. Looking forward to Rage now. Playing Beyond Good & Evil for the first time currently.

    Beat Gears of War 3. Great game. Weakest of the series, I think, but still a fine entry in the series.

    Also played Kirby Mass Attack on DS. I love Kirby and this is one of his best games ever. If you have a DS, you need to get this or you're a terrible, evil-hearted little shit.

    Literally read your name about 10 minutes ago on the Gears of War 3 Wiki page, Jim. Having a go at poor old Cliff Bleszinski. You know what Epic are like, they're very defensive over their games. Really looking forward to playing Gears in a couple of days.

    Haha. Yeah, he really did annoy me with his attitude. 8/10 is a great score for a game!

    I'm glad Final Fantasy VI is coming to PSN this week. Unfortunately, I think it might be the PS1 port and not the superior GBA one. It doesn't seem anyone knows for sure. I used to have the PS1 version, but I might be tempted to have it again, to fully determine if the all the praise is appropriate.

    FF VI isn't coming. Turns out it was a "mistake." I'm pretty bummed about it.

    Playing Resistance 3 and Frogger 3D for reviews at the moment. R3 is pretty damn good, and gorgeous to look at. Frogger 3D is ... alright I suppose.

    I've been playing Red Dead Redemption this week, going for 100% completion; it's such an awesome game. The archive of the old shows is the perfect companion. Decided to do a first prestige on Modern Warfare 2 and it's helped me get back into it. Really looking forward to Rage week after next.
