Topic: What game(s) have you been playing lately?

The game is hilarious, hell, the intro monologue alone was enough to get me to buy it.

"There's no dying in the cave!  Think of the insurance price hike!" -or something along those lines, that line was great.

Street Fighter x Tekken. I've owned it since September 2012 & had NEVER played it until last night at the urging of an online acquaintance...HOLY SHIT, I LOVED IT.

3 days ago, i've bought Mortal Kombat Complete for the ps3 and play it yesterday. All i can say that it's great and i haven't played Mortal Kombat for 15 years.......

Early copy of Fire Emblem Awakening! WTF? This game is awesome so far! It's been awhile since my last Fire Emblem game, so I'm thoroughly enjoying this one so far.

Last time I played a Fire Emblem, I was a tester for Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones

I guess I've also been playing Ragnarok Odyssey for my Vita too...it's like baby's first Monster Hunter set in the Ragnarok Online universe. It's ok, but makes me yearn so badly for Monster Hunter Tri Ultimate.

My latest games were Ys (PC), Maldita Castilla (PC), Street Fighter X Megaman (PC), Bloodrayne: Betrayal (PS3), Grandia III (PS2) and Alundra (PSX).

I have been playing..... Antichamber.

Indie, arty, Portal-esque, possibly a teeny bit pretentious, and more than a bit brain-melting. Also a 3D Metroidvania. Very, VERY mindfucky. I had to turn off the game to think about some puzzles quite a few times. Still not finished. Very worth it IMO.

Final Fantasy VII Bootleg Compilation (PC)
the graphics and sound enhancements helps the game, plus the Break 9999 makes grinding fun again.

Brutal Doom (PC)
Most Badass Doom mod as of yet, I recommend finding a co-op map mod so you can hone your skills.

that's it as of late...

Just saw some of that on TOtalHalibut's vids. Looks pretty cool. Puzzle games aren't exactly my favorite thing though. It does seem mindfucky, like you said though.

Also just beat Mark of the Ninja. Very cool game, pity it doesn't have an all powerful ninja suit with all the amenities. On my second run through to get all the seals, and play the "harder" new game plus. I find myself running through it with less watching, but messing up... still fun to get things perfect.

I liked the Tekken characters. They did some interesting things with them.

I'm sure the person who urged you to play this loved it as well and would probably want a rematch with you one day if they fought against you 

Me some blazblue, SFxT, mgs4, and tales of graces f the story is really picking up and all of this on my new ps3 

[TheCruelAngel]

Aside from my earlier unmentionable out loud, I've been going through MGS4 again. A) achievements nao! B) Big Boss EXTREME C) MGR comes out in a couple weeks! D) My main computer monitor died so PC gaming is on hiatus until I save up for a new smexy one.

Honestly I'm sure the levels are well designed and everything but that looks like "Eye Strain: the video game" lol.

I just replayed through this little under-appreciated gem which has it's 10th anniversary next month. http://www.gog.com/gamecard/judge_dredd_dredd_vs_death
Short but fun budget FPS which tries to capture some of the humor and artstyle of the original comics. Which is interesting because Judge Dredd, though created in the UK, is kind of a parody and odd celebration of American Fascism.

Dredd's first in-game words are "Bleeding Heart Liberals. Time to dispense some Justice." right before you arrest a bunch of peaceful protestors outside the Hall of Justice. Then after you give them all 10 years for unlawful assembly "In this city justice comes at a price, that price is freedom!"
There's something to be said for a game that encourages you to arrest everyone you can for charges like "Owning a goldfish without a license."
Plus the law meter mechanic* adds some depth to the straightforward shooting, and the primitive ragdoll effects are hi-larious.

*Don't shoot civilians or other Judges or it's game over, increase your lawmeter by making as many arrests instead of kills as you can to achieve a high rank and get more unlockables at the end of the level.
Judge Dredd: Dredd vs. Death (The Best Game Ever)
Don't watch past about 2 minutes if you're interested in the game as it spoils the ending. Also some of the technical problems are exaggerated for comic effect. I've never had trouble opening a door that is supposed to open in the game for example.

[PHBelmont]

I never get tired of playing Doom, haha. But now i was trying to do something new, so i was playing SCIV in the second lap without power ups and sub-weapons. That made me angry again as before and enjoy the game a little more. 

[Dark Nemesis]

I'm playing through Lufia 2, new game+.
