   Playing Hydrophobia for a review. It's not very good.

   Just played the demo for Enslaved on the PS3, and I urge EVERYBODY with access to get that demo. I've had the honor to play bits of the game before and let me tell you, it's going to be an absolutely hot one. Do yourselves a favor and check it out.

   Anyone else actually quite excited for Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II after seeing the trailer?

   I know it'll probably end up disappointing me, but it looks so good...

   Me! Me! Me!
   I watched a video showing a play through of the first level. It looked bum-blowingly amazing. (the first section, breaking out of the Kimino(?) cloning facility was aces)
   Hopefully they'll have dispensed with the shortcomings of the first game such as the level repetition. The levels, for the most part, were great but did I really have to revisit them?

   had a spree at the used games section last week and bought assasins creed two on the ps3 which is truly epic, If you aint played it yet i highly reccomend it
   I also bought halo reach for the xbox but after turning my xbox on after 6 months of lying idle i got the ring of death
   .
   .
   which sucked...

   i also bought wipeout hd which is fun
   terminator salvation which is rubbish as well as brutal legend which despite rave reviews im finding boring and pointless (apart from a decent soundtrack)

   as for mobile gaming im eagerly awaiting the next update for angry birds on the iphone and i have yet to capture the elusive yeti on plants vs zombies (savage game)

   JimSterling - That's so cool. Been looking at videos on Gamestrailers.com and it looks ever so good.
   Just out of interest, how did you get into your line of work?

   The_Fresh_Pen: I got very lucky is the short answer! Bombarded a bunch of places, got picked up for a freelance gig by IGN, then fell in with Destructoid. You just need a shitload of luck.

    Guitar Hero 6 has arrived unbidden at my door. I am going to play 2112 on it twice and never pick it up again.

    Can you send me an NES as well then please?

    (I struggle on the level with the electric one - goes too fast)

    Playing Arkham Asylum again, on hard this time cause I'm a tough bastard. First time through I genuinely thought it was one of the most perfect single player experiences I'd ever had, but this time I can't get over how shitty the camera is. It's like it's being operated by a crazed stalker who's always right on the precipice of shedding the last of their inhibitions and diving in to lick the batsweat off our hero's neck. Which is another way of saying it's far too close and tight in behind Batguy and is getting right on my tits.

    The new Guitar Hero forces you to play through the ludicrous quest mode before you can unlock 2112. This is bullshit!

    Also started playing Quantum Theory -- it's a passable Gears of War clone so far.

    Had a go on my friend's Fifa 11 earlier. For what is essentially a shit game, there were an awful lot of people playing. 140,000 people online when I looked.

    Currently just playing Gears 2 and Just Cause 2 on Live. Think I'll stick to them for awhile, as I gave Halo: Reach a go and thought it was really overrated. Just another Halo game, nothing new in it at all really except the new armour stuff. Tempted to go buy Dead Rising 2 though.

    Playing Samurai Warriors 3. Everyone hates those games, but I've always been fond of the Dynasty/Samurai Warriors games, so I like it quite a bit. Hand is sore from button mashing though.

    Also, beat 2112 on Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock and now I never need to play another Guitar Hero game again.

    We had a go of Rapstar last night in a room full of drunks at Holl's place last night complete with pimp chalice and rap pimp dollaz. From the same people who made the Ghostbusters game :/. It's no singsterling, that's for sure.

    So, I've been playing a lot of Bioshock 2 recently. It's bloody brilliant - I think I actually like it more than Bioshock, which is a surprise. Brilliant atmosphere, loads of variety in gameplay... But really the story and the presentation are immaculate - the voice acting is fantastic.

    Then I saw this and got very excited indeed:

    Just started Killzone 2. I really want to replay Final Fantasy XIII, but I've got so many other games I haven't played yet. Plus I'm doing the epilogue of Persona 3 and X-Files: Resist or Serve (for yucks). It's a hard life.

    Beat Castlevania: Lords of Shadow which was a turgid mass of mediocrity.

    Played Sonic 4 on the iPhone which was pretty good, though a couple of levels are dreadful. I was supposed to play the console version this weekend but the special dev kit I was due to play it on red-ringed and died as soon as I got it, which is rubbish.

    You are all probably wondering whether I completed Blur.

    Yep.

    I have uncompleted games on my shelf which are Harry Potter Lego, Indiana Jones Lego 2, God of War III, and Prototype. Got bored with all of them. Which do I revisit please?

    Or just give me a game to get until Clone Wars Lego, Assassin's Creed and Rugby League Live arrive.

    Jim - is Sonic 4 worth paying 5 pounds and 99 pence for? I see it's only 17 levels and the "episode 1" attachment makes me think that they'll expect me to shell out another six quid for episode 2 in a few months. Thoughts?

    Ray - Buy "Shank" from the Playstation Network. It's ace! 2D oldschool side scrolling beat em up style goodness with a modern twist. Give it a try, it's probably only a tenner or so.

    Fresh Pen: It all depends on how big a Sonic fan you are. If you're a big enough fan, it's worth getting for the nostalgia. You might want to wait for the console version though. I'm checking that out in a bit and it might be better. I'll have to see.

    Ray: I have a soft spot for Prototype, so I'd definitely recommend revisiting that one.

    I'm still playing the "Answer" epilogue to Persona 3, Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer (I really don't think I'll ever go through all 70 ranks), and I just started Heavy Rain. Oddly enough, I really want to get through all of the stuff I haven't played yet so I can replay Final Fantasy XIII, which I had bipolar opinions on back in March.
