Keeping the trend going Smilie
Got Tales of Graces a couple of days ago and it's pretty enjoyable. The combat makes it very different from previous tales games and has a bit more strategy to it but it's still brilliant fun.

I've also gotten back into Mass Effect 3 and have been playing some multiplayer with mates. Might have to continue with the story as well!

I might get myself the Spanish fan translation of the Wii version that's going on at the moment Smilie (the english project was dropped when ToG F was announced). Would be easier for me to understand than Japanese anyway, but I found the new battle system hard to get into, due to not understanding the Japanese tutorials.

Started playing a bit of Rune Factory Frontier last night (just a couple minutes), and also playing through Back to the Future: The Game at the moment.

Moved this to the General Gaming board Smilie

I've just been playing Tales of Graces f, I wasn't expecting that much for some reason so I've been kind of blown away! The battle system is brilliant and the characters are.. well, likeable enough. :3

Also been playing VVVVVV a lot on the side as always!

Counter Strike: Global Offensive. I'm sucking so bad! Never had a PC when CS first hit so the learning curve is really steep!

Sleeping Dogs.

Dark Souls

Hero Academy

Gonna see if I can smash the majority of the trophies of Uncharted 3.

Unsure what else to commit myself to atm, though. I tackle a different giant in Shadow of the Colossus every now and then, and just started Golden Sun 3. Slowly getting this dirty backlog done.

I think A Song of Ice and Fire (A Game of Thrones for the tv-only people) was partly based on it. Is it apparent in the game?

I'm also retroing at the moment, but just with Zelda.

I'm in the 8th dungeon of The Legend of Zelda (NES/AGB).

Xenoblade - Random side quests just keep popping up near the end of the game.
Tales of Graces f - I'm like 50-60 levels lower than I should be so the bosses are pretty tough. XP
Super Mario 3D Land

@Canyarion

I really wouldn't know, I just jumped onto the beta because it was offered to me via a mate. From what I gather on the forums, they share some nuances.

Started playing Klonoa remake, sweet game, very relaxing platformer. I should finish it soon.

Over the summer I was playing a lot of video games, but I've slowed down since school has started. I'm trying to beat Majora's Mask before school gets too busy. I'm about to go into the fourth dungeon.

This is the first time I've played Majora's Mask and I'm enjoying it a lot.

New Super Mario Bros. 2 - I actually enjoyed this. Especially Coin Rush. Smilie
Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy - Recently picked this up, finished Series Mode yesterday. I absolutely loved the game. I'm not a huge Final Fantasy fan and I'm not keen on the newer titles but I've always loved the music.

This has actually made me want Nintendo and Square Enix to team up and make a Theatrhythm: The Legend of Zelda or Square could even do it for Kingdom Hearts. I just really loved the idea of this game.

Extras/Bit on the side - Been helping a mate through Resident Evil 5, we've finished it on Normal and Amateur, half way through Veteran, then we're gonna go Professional (I've done this all before, but I don't mind helping since I quite like RE5.. but only in co-op Smilie).

Playing through RE5 has given me the incentive to go back to Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D of which I just unlocked the EX missions.

I've also been wanting to play through Resident Evil 4 but I'm not sure... buy the HD version or replay the Wii version? xD

Might go back to Resident Evil: Revelations too, really enjoyed that game and I still need to finish it off on Hell difficulty.

Wow.. that's a lot of Residents and Evils. I've also been playing Borderlands with another buddy whilst really itching to get my hands on the sequel.

As always, still playing Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition

Yeah.. I'm certainly making up for the time I haven't really been playing games. I should seriously finish off some of the games I have yet to finish, but yeah... I'll get around to that eventually. Smilie

Lately I've been playing a lot of Guild Wars 2 and I'm loving it. It eliminates so many traditions of MMORPG's that have started to really annoy me over the years and actually makes every aspect of the game feel rewarding and fun. It's a shame I'm missing out on the best stuff, which is 8vs8 PvP, massive PvP wars between 3 servers and PvE dungeons, but my laptop is handicapping me way too much to play any of those things. Honestly, and this might surprise some of you, right now I want a new PC more than I want a Wii U.

Tales of Graces f is amazing, the new battle system makes the whole game a lot more fun than Abyss or both Symphonia's. Eliminating an ancient element like MP management is very appreciated because even though it's something that works, it has started to really annoy me lately. Especially in the more action-oriented Tales of games, where it was rather boring not being able to use your full range of Artes during anything other than major battles because you'd run out of MP like instantly. So instead of pulling off some satisfying combos, most of the time you were just using basic attacks with few Artes inbetween. With only about 12 hours played, it's hard to say if it'll beat Abyss as my favourite but I can most certainly say that the gameplay blows all Tales games I've played so far out of the water.

With Pokémon Platinum I'm on the last major game with my Pokémon marathon and I should have some time left to take a break from Pokémon before Pokémon Black 2.
