Now I rarely play anything, probably because the PS2 has died and there are no more games to play. Buying a PS3 is on my to-do list, certainly, at least to play games like Metal Gear Solid 4, Final Fantasy XIII, Gran Turismo 5, Silent Hill 5 and GTA4.
I think GTA4 is going to be a 360 exclusive. I remember hearing that some where, so you'll be out of luck with a PS3, which is unfortunate.

I do....let's share a bit.
1. GTA - Vice city 2. GTA - San andreas 3. Sacred underworld 4. Diablo 2 5. Scarface 6. Final Fantasy
I've also notice a post concerning this topic since 2005. so what's new?
Every now & then I'll dust off Morrowind and Oblivion
Hell yeah man. I played a ton of Morrowind on my old PC but my new one won't run it due to vista. Played a lot of Oblivion (3 characters) on the PS3 and the Knights of the Nine and Shivering Isles as well. Otherwise, I'm addicted to Rock Band and Guitar Hero. Also every new Madden that comes out, and good FPS. Still haven't had the time to beat Resistance Fall of Man yet though.

Sweet! I'm still playing around in the Shivering Isles (five different Oblivion characters - lots to do...)
Meanwhile, I'm looking for a good WWI Sim to replace Red Baron 3D (still my favorite of the flight sim genre)
So many cigars, so little time...

I used to be a huge PC gamer when i was a kid... the Wing Commander series, Unreal Tournament, Diablo II, Final Fantasy VII, Ultima Online... who knows what else. I have an Xbox collecting dust right now and for a while i was borrowing my friends PS3. Call of Duty 4 was awesome!

The last game i was addicted to was call of duty 2 on the pc. Then i bought call of duty 4 and i hated it so i uninstalled it. Now i'm giving some attention to my ps3
I can never get the xbox 360 away from my sons long enough to get good at any of the games for it. I am guessing that is the plan that way they never have to lose to dad!
I wish I would have known earlier that buying her diamonds would let me be allowed to smoke cigars in the house.
Being a bit older than most of you, I grew up playing electric football and now like EA Sports College Football which I play on my son's XBox 360. He got a Wii for Christmas and took it to college and says that he and his roomoate are wasting an a$$load of time playing it.

Rockstar can't take the risk of not having a Sony console version.
Whoops, my bad. I think originally it was only supossed to be 360. I remember that there ewas a big fuss about GTA being 360 only. I'm not sure if it was 4 or what, but at one point, this was plan.
Edit-Ok, Xbox gets exclusive content, not the entire game...
Started gaming back when I had a Tandy SX-1000 with two floppies and no hard drive (circa 1989)...Played a lot of Morrowwind, the Diablo games, Leisure Suit Larry =), a lot of the King's Quests games along with various simulators.
Discovered a MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role playing game) game called Everquest in August of 2000. Played Everquest in a high end raiding guild 6 days a week into 2006 (well over 450 actual days played during that time period). Also played a lot of the other online games roleplaying games that came along such as Dark Ages of Camelot, Everquest II, Final Fantasy, Star Wars Galaxies and Vanguard. Also played a bit of Halo, Sudden Sam, and other games I can't remember the names of at this time. Currently play World of Warcraft a few evenings a week with my wife and another couple from the west coast.

Whoa, 450?! Glad I deleted that huge time sink of a game.
Played the Half-Life mod Team Fortress Classic in a very competitive tournament clan in college. Team Fortress 2 recently came out so I switched over to that.

I am a fan of any of the Rainbow Six franschise. Just recently, I had to use SimCity for a class (politics of urban and metro america), and got compleatly hooked. I had to give the game away.
There was just a sense of wonder with Everquest Sobek I haven't been able to replicate with any other game. I still miss EQ but can't devote the time anymore.

I made a guy on there that I got halfway through the main campaign with, where the only weapon I used was my bare fists. Talk about a challenge! I also got about 2/3 into the Arena quests doing this before I could not win anymore. Too bad they didn't put Sujamma in Oblivion, I used a ton of that in Morrowind.

I liked SimCity back in the day, but that was 2000. Which one are you playing now? I might have to pick up the latest version, which ever one that is.

haven't played much lately, but some of my kid's best memories with dad were playing the King's Quest series. Also, the first Prince of Persia was an awesome game (fit on 1 1.4mb floppy), spent way too many hours playing SimCity.
Here's Johnny!

I used to play Sim City 2000 as well, back in 2000 and 2001. The result of over 500 hours of gameplay was a huge buzzing metropolitan that I called "Necropolis"...a gloomy name for a city though.
I forgot to mention this, but it's one of my weirdest gaming moments. On September 11th 2001, I at my cousin's place playing Flight Simulator 2000 on his PC. I was flying a helicopter over Washington DC when I heard my aunt suddenly screaming in panic "KIDS COME SEE THIS. AMERICA IS BURNING"

I know what you are talking about. I started the game when it came out and did the whole high end guild thing....but I quit cold one day. It just became way too time consuming.
