What games are you currently playing on your various systems? Is there any particular ryhme or reason to the order in which you play them? Are there any particular ones that you are trying your damndest to finish?



Here is my current rotation:


1. Sega Rally - Sega Saturn - I don't know what it is about this game, but I'm addicted to it right now. The graphics are pretty horrid, in terms of the very outdated 3D, but I just love this puppy right now. The control is really tight and accurate.

2. Jurassic Park - Sega Genesis - I know this isn't the greatest Sega Genesis cart, but for whatever reason I've been playing it. I like the fact that you can be either the human or the dinosaur. I think I can finish this one pretty soon, so I keep hacking away at it.

3. Tony Hawks Pro Skater - Sony Playstation - I just got a PSone recently after not having the old Playstation for like 6 years or more. The one game that I got with it is the first Tony Hawk. This game is very impressive for it's time.

4. Keith Courage in Alpha Zones - TurboGrafx-16 - Obviously, I need some new Turbo games. I don't have hardly any, and for whatever reason, I'm trying to finish Keith Courage without using a continue.

5. Virtua Figher 2 - Sega Saturn - Because I've been playing Sega Rally so much, after I get tired of racing I pop this puppy in. Still a great game even with all the 3D glitches.

6. Contra III: The Alien Wars - Super Nintendo - I haven't been playing my Super much lately, but whenever I do, the first cart I reach for is Contra III. I just got this game recently, and it's such a classic. I had it back in the day and it brings back tons of memories

7. China Warrior - TurboGrafx-16 - Again, I don't have too many Turbo games to choose from. When I play my Turbo, I'm always playing this after Keith Courage.

8. Cybermorph - Atari Jaguar - The hell with whatever anybody else says. I love Cybermorph. I just find it very enjoyable and relaxing. Plus it looks beautiful on my RGB monitor.

9. Super Ghouls and Ghosts - Super Nintendo - This game is one of the all time greats as far as I'm concerned. But I just suck at it! It get's frustrating for me, but still I play on.

10. Aladdin - Sega Genesis - Just got this one not too long ago. Pretty cool game. Nice animation and it looks very good in RGB. Can get old as you get into the later levels. I hope to finish this one pretty soon.




One thing I've noticed is that I've hardly touched my Nintendo 64. For whatever reason, I'm just not playing it right now. Maybe cause the games on it, aren't all that "retro". I don't know.

Well, if my gaming can ever be called heavy, these are the games I play the most of late:

Berzerk - MAME
Tetrisphere - N64
Monster Truck Madness - N64
Bug - Saturn

Of course, I only play about an hour total in an average week... just don't have enough time.

Wizardry 8 (http://www.wizardry8.com) (PC) has occupied most of my free time for over a month. It's really great, and lives up to the series' legacy.

I don't have a rotation... in the past I've started and not-finished waaaay too many games. Now I pick one up and see it through to avoid needing to restart months/years down the line and have no idea whats going on.

1. PC Star Wars Galaxies way too much (8+ hours a week!) It's not a great game - it's just very addicting.
2. NES Mario Bros. & DK - I never ever get tired of these games
3. My Vectrex collection - specifically Cosmic Chasm and Star Trek
4. PC Unreal Tournament 2003 - this game is a lot more fun than when it was originally released with all the new levels and patches
5. GC Animal Crossing - but I don't like to admit it ;)

Hmmm, I haven't really gotten into much of a rotation per se but...

1) Phantasy Star IV (dear gods the greatness can not be described here, but it's a slow starter. I'm just now about 4 hours in and things are finally picking up. Especially with Rika. *cough*)

2) World Court Tennis (Tennis with RPG elements? OK. Except I suck at the tennis portion so I'll have to practice more)

I haven't been doing a lot of playing this week, as I've had more work than usual. If I get my 'normal' 3 days off next week, I'll get back on the playing side again.

I haven't had much time to play lately, but when I do, I have been playing Pokemon Puzzle League for the N64. For those not familliar with this game, this is one ADDICTIVE puzzler, despite the Pokemon license (Which I find annoying).

I just got Tony Hawk 3 for my PC, so I'm big into that right now. I haven't been able to play THPS since the Dreamcast days, so I'm glad to be catching up. So if you hear a lot of loud swearing out of your windows, you'll know it's me (being stuck with a Microsoft Sidewinder sucks)

On my GBA, it's been Kelly Slater all the way. You can guess I'm into the stunt-sports games, and this one really works. I've finally managed to crack it this past week; I'm now easily scoring over 100,000 points per run, and even managed to top 250,000 once. Y'all are missing out.

After that, it's Lunar Legends, which is wonderful. Most GBA owners point to Golden Sun for their RPG fix, but I think Lunar is better. The characters are much more warm and interesting.

I'll probably get back to Advance Wars one of these days, but I'm on one of those stages where I'm facing a massive army, and I'd rather put off the slaughter, thank you.
