I'm playing through Half-Life 2 for the first time. Played the first, but never got around to the second. With Episode 2 looking pretty awesome, I thought I'd check out HL2. The jet-ski-ish thing is terrible. I wanted to kill myself. It's fun enough, though.

I got Stranglehold, it's fun so far I'm not sure what chapter I'm on though. I heard it's short but I don't mind I don't think this game would be very good if it was super long with the way it plays.

Wish XBL would work though so I could try out the multiplayer.

Well, I bought myself my first Final Fantasy yesterday. "Final Fantasy XII". That game and I are going to spend many long hours underneath the blankets in the holidays in the wee hours of the morning...if you know what I mean...

First, Ra is a girl. Second, let's end this discussion right now.

Well, we all know I've got FFXII. Let's move on, shall we?

I think that was the first time I've ever seen Ra get confused for a boy.

Anyway, FF 12 is awesome. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Once you get used to the sytem changes, it's hard going back to the old ones.

Funny you should say that... First time I've been confused for one on here, but I've been mistaken as a guy elsewhere. But that, my friend, is another story.

I'm sure I'll enjoy it. I've played VIII, IX, and X before at my cousins and enjoyed it (not so much with X, but that's another story). The battle system reminds me of World of Warcraft, which I've played a bit of as well, so I'm sure I'll get the hang of it soon enough. Which is good, since I'm probably looking at two weeks of gaming, which isn't that long when you think about it... More of an excuse for me to start as soon as possible, no?

That's a mistake I tend to make online if someone's avatar is clearly male or female. I realize that doesn't really make any sort of rational sense, but it's what my brain does. I thought Dr. Doom was female for the longest time because he used to have that babe as his icon.

Yes, and my comment was obviously serious.

I'm fairly far in FFXII, but I've been stuck in the same city since March becasue some stuff came up and I stopped playing. I want to start up again, but ARG I don't even remember why I'm in the town I'm in! It's a fun game and I really do love the combat system. The magic system is a little unbalanced though since with some persistant leveling and the right accessories you can have everyone with every skill/magic/bonus relatively quickly.

I've been pwning it up in SSX: Tricky lately.

That game is fun as hell. Besides, it's the only game I know where you get to play as a white guy with a Afro.

Still haven't beaten the Emperor but I finally figured his pattern out - and it's really not as bad as I thought. I think it was Doom who said that Metroid Prime was good at making you afraid of a boss and that is exactly what happened to me here.
