I'm currently playing nothing, my PS3 is at home. I WAS playing Bioshock 2 (rubbish) and GT5 (ace).

Currently have a number of games on the go in differing stages of completion: Fallout 3, Fallout New Vegas, GT5, GTA4, Assassins Creed, MGS4, Bioshock, Heavy Rain.

Don't do online gaming due to poor internet connection speeds. Not interested in the Move system.

Looking forward to Brink coming out in a few weeks.

Just working through B Spec GT5, seeing as there apparently some rather tasty cars there for the taking. It's ace, cos I can set 'I. Dickson' off racing and come back half an hour later with the cash in the bank, whilst I do more constructive things.

Playing BlackOps, most nights 10-12, usually me and a mate on a team, more than welcome to join us! Also have the bluetoof headset, but doesn't really get used as my mate is in the next room. Favourite levels are Summit, Firing Range, Nuketown & Stadium, favourite weapon is Famas with silencer.

I have GT5, but rarely play it as it gives me headaches. I recommend MotorStorm, when it comes out, previous ones were quite mental and had a good soundtrack. NFSHP is also pretty good.

Still dip in to COD MW now and then, but I'm playing The Need For Speed - Hot Pursuit at the moment, which is a cracking game. Very much an arcade feel to it, and great on line against your mates.

I have GT5 as well, but haven't played for a while - will get back into that soon I imagine.

PSN name JonnyC1973

Not really playing any at the moment, GT5 I played but stopped as never had much time to get into it, went back to Black Ops for a bit playing the ones such as Stick and Stones. Waiting for Portal 2 which is due out in about 2 weeks now.

Still dipping into GT5, done all the easy stuff and can't face grinding the later A-spec race series. Got a bit disillusioned when I realised the B-spec boys were now way better than I'll ever be.

PSN ID: Danski_UK

I have a few B-spec drivers on standby if anybody wants to race theirs against them.

Sorry.

I finally finished Black-ops campaign a couple of nights ago.. only took me 5 months. just started online, total noob and shit against all the higher ranked players. still got COD4 and the first RESISTANCE to open for a new FPS.. decisions 😉
for Racing even after a year or so I'm still playing MX Vs ATV Reflex quite a bit.. only recently got an HD TV and it's so much better game in HD and I'm actually getting pretty good at it now - pity the online racing loby hardly ever works properly! Haven't played GT5 in ages. Thought Modnation racers would be great fun with 4 controllers but all the kids want to do is design crap tracks and dress up their characters 🙄
For an Action Adventure kinda thing, I just got back into Batman Arkham Asylum and am quite enjoying it again .. just started playing Tombraider Underworld last week too (looks a good game but I think I'll try and get through Arkham before getting right into it). still got the first Assasin's Creed to open too.
For footy.. PES still is and has always been the one for me, I'm pretty s**t at it and the new PES2011 control system makes streetfighter's special moves seem easy but this game is amazing!
I'm not really too into straight platformers (or platform adventures) but the kids are playing LBP2 and it TBH looks pretty amazing.. and Lego Harry Potter seems like it'd be alright for grown ups too (for a Lego game)
does anyone else have motion controllers? We've got 3 and the gun attachment but the games all seem pretty lame so far.. especially interested in how Killzone3 plays with motion controllers.

You can only play one game at a time.
funny you should say that, when GT5 came out load times were so bad I'd sometimes play my daughters DS inbetween races 😆

I am hooked on Mass Effect 2, something like 50 hours in now and still a fair bit to go + I downloaded the 'Arrival' addon last week so will give that a go.

Also playing Shift 2 with a Logitech GT wheel and pedals, seems good and enjoying it although not got really into it just yet, that will come.

I don't blame you, I'm quite impartial to playing my DS.

Feel free to add me. Playing a bit of PES2011 lately but also been playing KZ3 a fair bit, though not online yet as I'm rubbish and don't want the humiliation of being smashed by a load of pre-pubescents!

Very, very much can't wait for Portal 2, pre ordered it weeks ago!!

You get an error code. Anonymous the group of hackers known for several DDOS (Distributed Denial of Service) have hacked the PSN, because the guy Geo-Hotz who hacked the PS3 to get Custom Firmware is getting brought to court.

Down for 'maintenance' mmm, maybe.
Sent black ops back and used the money to get Medal of Honour Tier 1. Still playing that and Bad Company 2. Looking forward to Bad Company3. Killzone 3 was mental with Move controllers! I would like to play with the move sharpshooter controller in a FPS, looks pretty cool (and geeky!)

just want to log in again...

He must be as I can rattle through most of the puzzles and I'm still going, not sure how far I'm on or how long I've played though. Then there's the co-op maps too so plenty life in it yet.

i hear the playstation network was hacked which is why it's down. if you want a cheap FPS with a good story line then have a look at Singularity, it kind of went under the radar last year but it's a good game and can be picked up for about a tenna pre owned.
