Pretty quiet week. Looking forward to Pantera though.

I'm looking forward to Panera for lunch. Although they stopped selling Jones Soda recently.

Jones Soda sucks. Panera rules. Pantera is good too.

I'm a sucker for Mario Kart, so I'll be getting Blur.

Blur and Modnation on the Triple for me, this week.

I've spent too much money on games this last month or so. You'd think it was Holiday season!

Tonight is the 24 series finale, so no Alan Wake episode 4 until Tuesday. I'll also be playing at least one star a day of my Super Luigi Galaxy run all June (only 30 to go), even after my copy of Galaxy 2 arrives later this week.

I played the hell out of Bit.Trip Runner this weekend (on the third world already) so that will take a rest. I finished Uncharted 2 yesterday. As tough as those blue guys were, they weren't as annoying as I was led on to believe. Great fun to the very end though. Glad to have finally played it.

Yeah, once you figured out which weapon you could two-shot them with, they became a bit of a breeze.

Only problem being killing the first one to get that weapon...

But still, it's all about the run and gun!

Can't wait to watch that series finale. This has been my favorite season of 24 yet (see my avatar?) and the scene where Jack assaulted Logan in that tunnell was the best 2 minutes of TV I've ever seen.

I've got to give it to Fox for their tv shows as they along with TNT have my favorite shows. Lie to me, fringe, 24, leverage, dark blue & southland. Fringe is my absolute favorite though.

So we've got Modnation and Not Modnation. Woot. Seriously though Modnation's been occupying me every thought for 2 weeks.

Definitely picking up Blur, probably Modnation Racers too.

Looking forward to inducing fits of rage in Blur simply by winning with a hot pink car. Oh Xbox Live, you're so delightfully juvenile.

ModNation Racers for me this week.

This is probably the last game I'll buy on release date until the August. I mean, unless NCAA football 11, Backbreaker, or Alpha Protocol turn out awesome.

If anybody wants to play online w/ MNR, you can add me! Peace!

Early reviews for Alpha Protocol are saying it's not that bad and maybe pretty decent (although I'm scared because it's made by Obsidian).

I already got a copy of ModNation Racers on Friday....store there broke the street date. Haven't played yet because I don't want to get banned on PSN. And I got Alan Wake coming in the mail.

I seriously doubt they would ban you for playing a game a few days early.

Well, I'll still be playing Red Dead Redemption! Around 12 hours played so far, really good.
I'll also throw in some Alan Wake (but only in the dark and with headphones - the way it's meant to be played)

huhh, wait, all I can see is super mario galaxy 2 in all the slots, even the playstation and xbox ones. Must be because since I got it yesterday, I haven't put it down. I haven't even slept yet and ......*blurp*..........huh, I don't think thats suppose to be outta my body? Ohh well, another couple stars and 5 hour energies should fix that.

Yeah, I kind of want one of them, but can't decide yet. And where's all the Blur reviews? They have an embargo going? Anyway, I'm right at the end of 3DDGH, in the middle of RDR, and still have yet to start SMG2. So I've got games to pass the time while I decide.

I'll wait for some reactions and reviews to Hexyz Force.

It's not like I don't have enough generic looking Turn Based JRPG's to play on my PSP (or in general), but Sting has made some good games in the past (Knights in the Nightmare and Yggdra Union).

I can't pass up a good JRPG or else I'll find myself trying to track it down when it's rare and costs $80.

My Friends List has decided that Modnation Racers is the game of the week! Although my Friends Code List on my Wii can't really speak. I'm sure they're going to be playing SMG2 this week...


Add me if you need a fellow racer on your list!

In Chicago at least, ModNation Racers has been in stores for over a week. Target mistakenly put it out and wouldn't sell it to me, but Best Buy did :).

It didn't mean much though because I've not had a chance to play it yet.

This is Super Mario Galaxy 2's week, most definitely. I'm getting my copy delivered tomorrow.

Kinda into the new Artstyle game though. But I spent the last of my points on RUNNER.

ModNation Racers came out last friday in Europe. Buy it if you like Kart Racing games. It's awesome.

Awesome week for me! My birthday is coming up, rampage is fighting Rashad this weekend and I'll be getting mod nation racers and ufc 10 from my kids and fiancé! W00t W00t! We've been having alot of fun with the modnation demo as well ... I think it'll be a great game.

Super excited about this weekend.

I won't be picking up anything this week, or the next few weeks for that matter. Due to discounts, I have amassed a nice little backlog of recent releases...Bioshock 2, Mass Effect 1 & 2, Red Dead Redemption, Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia, Red Faction: Guerilla, and I'm currently playing Final Fantasy 13. Nothing will be played until I complete FFXIII...I don't care how good RDR is, I'm not touching it until I've completed FFXIII! I've made it past the 15 hour mark in FFXIII and it has gotten really good. Therefore, I'm gonna see this one to the end.

Don't try to convince me...

Only 5 or so more hours until the end of the tutorial. I would really like to get the Platinum, but don't know if I can subject myself to that game any longer. I just can't seem to squeeze any fun out of that battle system. Hopefully they will at least include an option to use a more traditional turn-based option in future FFs like they did in previous titles. Oh well, guess not every game is for everyone...

Selling off Split/Second since I fully completed that game within 3 days of release and got all trophies but I can't decide between Blur or ModNation Racers :[

However, I have until Friday to pick one since I picked up RDR today and OMFG that game is sweeeeeeet!!
