One of my favorite RPG's of all time. My roommates and I in college would play this for hours.

Updated list.


Now Playing

FEAR (PC)- played through the first 8 levels, hoping to finish the last 3 in the next few days.

Guitar Hero I & II- GH1 have 5 starred all 25 songs on easy, and beat every song on medium including the bonus tracks. Have done all the same on GHII except for beating the bonus tracks on medium. Will finish those up and probably step away for a while before attempting 5 stars on medium and trying out Hard mode.

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin- just finished for the good ending, now going to try out Richter and Sister mode, try to find the extra dungeon, try out boss mode etc.


Recently Finished

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin- finished for the true ending last night

Yoshi's Island DS- Beat it last night. Not bothering with the extra stuff.

Zelda: Twighlight Princess- though want to play some more to get some of the stuff I missed

On Deck

God of War- starting this as soon as I finish FEAR

Stack of PC games my friend lent me- Leaning toward Icewind Dale II as the next one, probably won't start until finishing God of War.

I recently (2 weeks ago) beat Lost Planet on NORMAL mode. Beat it in like 10-12 hours. I want to get into playing it on HARD, but that might be a while

I also beat Wario Ware : Smooth Moves way too quickly. Ill probably play that off and on as friends request it.



I started playing a TON of NES, SNES, and GBA games. I probably won't finish many, if not any of them, but its fun

Castlevania: POR... beat it w/ 1000%, true ending, yada yada, but have 2 'quests' to finish, one that I CAN'T, because, before I knew it was the only one I sold my long sword.. uggh. I may go back and play it w/ Richter, not too interested in the stylus attack system for the sisters though.

Now Playing:

Madden (Wii): Playing Franchise mode, on the 6th game of the season now
FF III (DS): which I had been playing before I was given Castlevania and stopped playing when I had to send my DS in for repairs.

Rainbow Six:Vegas is the best reviewed of those games, so I'd go with that one.

Updated list.


Now Playing

God of War- Started Saturday night, put in an hour and a half or so. Enjoying it so far.

Gears of War- been playing Coop at my friends the past couple of saturdays. Hopefully can get together this Sunday and finish it off on casual before the Super Bowl.

Guitar Hero I & II- GH1 have 5 starred all 25 songs on easy, and beat every song on medium including the bonus tracks. Have done all the same on GHII except for beating the bonus tracks on medium. Will finish those up and probably step away for a while before attempting 5 stars on medium and trying out Hard mode.

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin- just finished sister mode, probably go back to my main save now and try to find that extra dungeon thing and some of the other stuff and maybe give Richter mode a whirl after that. Great game, one of the best of the Metroidvanias for sure.


Recently Finished

FEAR-Extraction Point- short but awesome. Much creepier/scarier than the main game, especially the hospital level. That was some fucked up shit.

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin- finished sister mode, after getting the true ending in the main game.

FEAR (PC)- Pretty sweet game, enjoyed it even though I'm not a big PC gamer or FPS fan. Knocked it down to easy from level 4 on though, as I suck at PC FPS controls.

Yoshi's Island DS- Beat it last night. Not bothering with the extra stuff.

Zelda: Twighlight Princess- though want to play some more to get some of the stuff I missed

On Deck


Stack of PC games my friend lent me- Leaning toward Icewind Dale II as the next one, probably won't start until finishing God of War. As much as I loved FEAR though I may jump into another FPS like Call of Duty or Quake 4 though.

Resident Evil 4 (GC) plan on finally picking this up and giving it a whirl.

Updated my list in the post above again. Been gaming a ton lately. Will probably have to slow down with the semester starting up though.

GOW on insane.

Now Playing
COD3. I purchased the game a few weeks ago, but I couldn't get into it then with GOW seemingly demanding that I man up and play it through on Insane. Popped COD 3 in two nights ago. So far, the game plays like a chore. Just not as fun as COD 2.

God of War- About 5 1/2 hours in. Liking it a lot, but think it is somewhat overrated. Probably a 8.0/10 for me. Super pissed that I accidentally switched from Normal to Easy without noticing and saved over my file and thus am stuck finishing it on easy or starting over.

Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime: Put 2-2.5 hours in so far. Liking it ok, but a bit underwhelmed thus far. The tank battles are ok, but the game hasn't sucked me in much yet.

Guitar Hero I & II- GH1 have 5 starred all 25 songs on easy, and beat every song on medium including the bonus tracks. Have done all the same on GHII except for beating the bonus tracks on medium. Will finish those up and probably step away for a while before attempting 5 stars on medium and trying out Hard mode.

Call of Duty (PC)- only played a little, pretty underwhelming after playing through FEAR, not sure if I will stick with it.


Recently Finished

Gears of War: my buddies and I polished off the campaign last friday after 3 late nights of co-op and drinking.

FEAR-Extraction Point- short but awesome. Much creepier/scarier than the main game, especially the hospital level. That was some fucked up shit.

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin- finished sister mode, after getting the true ending in the main game. Gave up at the 2 creatures portion of Nest of Evil in regular mode. Doubt I'll bother with Richter and Maria mode.

FEAR (PC)- Pretty sweet game, enjoyed it even though I'm not a big PC gamer or FPS fan. Knocked it down to easy from level 4 on though, as I suck at PC FPS controls.

Yoshi's Island DS- Beat it and traded it without bothering with the extra stuff. Pretty dissapointed with the generic level design and cheap deaths. A far cry from the classic original.

Zelda: Twighlight Princess- though want to play some more to get some of the stuff I missed, don't know when I'll get to it.

On Deck

Resident Evil 4 (GC) picked this up and will fire it up after finishing God of War, needed some reason to dust of the Wii

Stack of PC games my friend lent me- may give Quake IV a whirl, the RPGs (Icewind Dale II, Neverwinter nights with all expansions) will have to wait until I get through my comp exam in June and have more time.
