- Tetris is the Monet's Water Lillies of gaming.
- God of War is the Smith & Wollensky Steakhouse of gaming.
- Dante's Inferno is the Dante's Infern ... actually, it's the 13-year-old's vision of classical poetry of gaming.
- Diablo is the Bobcat Goldthwait of gaming.
- Dynasty Warriors is the Archie Comics of gaming.
- Final Fantasy VII is the Steel Magnolias of gaming.
Somebody beat us to that one? Foiled, again! What's everyone playing this weekend?
[Thanks, Kyle!]
- Alexander Sliwinski (@XanderSliwinski): Demon's Souls. Still don't know what to think about it. Also some Firefight with the Joystiq guys.
- Andrew Yoon (@scxzor): Still catching up on PSP gaming. Now I have PixelJunk Monsters and Gran Turismo to deal with.
- Ben Gilbert (@BigBossBgilbert): Continuing to enjoy God of War: Chains of Olympus on PSP despite Kratos' best attempts to make me hate the game (seriously, him and Marcus Fenix need to get shot into the Sun). And with any luck, I'll join the Joystiq Firefight Team for more UNSC glory.
- Christopher Grant (@ChrisGrant): I've got three games in circulation, all of which I'm this close to finishing. For Resident Evil 5, my co-op buddy and I need to finish Chapter 6. And both Wet and Dead Space: Extraction it's all up to me. The best part is: I'm really enjoying all three!
- David Hinkle (@DaveHinkle): My driving lessons in Need for Speed: Shift will likely continue, as well as my lessons in pwning nubs in the Halo 3. I think that's how the kids say it. Oh, and Firefightin' with the Joystiq crew. We likes the Firefight. We needs it -- our precious.
- Griffin McElroy (@griffinmcelroy): I'm going to steal Justin's Dreamcast and play Shenmue all weekend. Please, don't tell him. He'd be so mad if he found out what I was planning to do. This is between me, you, and Ryo Hazuki.
- James Ransom-Wiley: [Friend's wedding.]
- JC Fletcher (@jcfletcher): Several different versions of Gunstar Heroes. Oh, thank you so much for existing, Gunstar Heroes Treasure Box.
- Justin McElroy (@JustinMcElroy): I'll be playing "Try to convince the power company to shut off the electric before Griffin can sully my Dreamcast with his dirty, baby-sized hands."
- Kevin Kelly (@gadgetguy): More Halo 3: ODST Firefight mode, just so I can hear Alexander's in-game commentary. Seriously, that game is freakin' addictive. Also some Halo Wars, which I finally just got (used, on the cheap), and looking at getting Wet. Chris Grant has pushed me over edge that the demo had me teetering on.
- Ludwig Kietzmann (@LudwigK): I'm hoping to get some time in with ODST's Firefight (I haven't played it yet!) and ... this film tie-in game I have to review. Forget I mentioned it.
- Randy Nelson (@DangerPenguin): The game I'm playing is a thing of legend, and man, its multiplayer can be brutal. Don't worry -- I'll be fine, and you'll get a review on the double. It's Brütal Legend.
- Richard Mitchell (@SenseiRAM): Now that I've got a PS3 and a PS2, my gaming stores are very heavily stocked. In no particular order: Silent Hill 3, MGS4, Critter Crunch, Fat Princess, ODST, Lucidity and, hopefully, the first Uncharted.
- Xav de Matos (@Xav): Nothing but Forza 3 and Rock Band Unplugged.
- Justin Glow (@justinglow): (Is the Abba of web developers.)
