Yar, their DRM is pretty crazy, I don't think they have anything to worry about in regard to your every day person. For those that the DRM isn't a problem for, well they'd get around anything regardless.


Playing Rock Band 2 by the way and it is SWEET. It's better than RB1 in just about every way. In fact, it IS better than RB1 in every way. The only downside is Metallica/Black Sabbath/Iron Maiden's GH whorage and stopping their songs from RB1 from being able to transfer over. But who cares 'cause ever song from RB2 I've played so far is friggen sweet :D

Edit: Man, game is exceeding my expectations in every way. Everything is just better about it, even playing RB1 songs and the DLC is just better in the game some how. Can't explain it. Guess they've adjusted the game mechanics and audio levels. It's pretty damn great :D

Edit 2: Pretty much the final version of Lilith at the moment...

WHY SO SERIOUS!
I'm finally playing some games again. Decided I'll wait until after I finish uni to play GTA4. Which looks like it will pay off since I will be able to install the game with the new dashboard and reduce loading times.

So anyway I'm having fun playing Fight Night Round 3, tis pretty awesome.

I'm in the process of playing Zack & Wiki and Mega Man 2 (both on Wii obviously). I think I've nearly finished the former, while the latter I have killed Metal Man and Wood Man.

I'm also still playing the crap out of Rock Band 2. Just failed out on "Visions", it's the crappiest, most annoying song I've played in a rhythm game. It's not even fun.

Since I've finally found and bought one of those VGA adapters for the 360 (in Melbourne of all places), I was testing out some Mega Man 9 action... and they weren't kidding when they said it was hard... yet surprisingly satisfying - I'll buy this one later.

I'm probably gonna start playing DMC4 and GTA4 very soon before diving into the "Big Five" (Dead Space, Fallout, C&C3, Quantum of Solace ...aaannnd finally some Fable 2)... But imma be smart about this one and only buy these games when I have time to play them =) - made the mistake of buying DMC4 and haven't really touched it since release - so I can save some cash for the holiday season.
[!!] COMPLETED: Duke 3D (XBL), Need For Speed Undercover (shortest NFS, ~ 10hrs)

Sense is not common.
I've been playing Civ III quite a bit. Just small maps with everything set to random, to spend an hour or three kicking arse or getting my arse kicked.

I think I've given up on Spore for a whiles.

I used to play a stack of Civ3. It's so damn time consuming though, if you want to manage everything (and IMO that's the only way to play lol).

Have mostly been playing through GTA 4 again but this time at a bit more of a slower pace and simply enjoying it for what it is. Mind you this is only to hold me out until I pick up Little Big Planet and RB :)
Recently finished: Uncharted, Ratchet and Clank:TOD, Bionic Commando Rearmed
Playing: LittleBigPlanet, Rockband!!!111

Yes. In under 3 months I went from being a 360 owner to a PS3 owner. Idiotic? Maybe. Financial Stupidity? Definately. Do I care? No bloody way! :D

DOUBLE POST! Sorry!

So yeah grabbed LittleBigPlanet yesterday and it is some serious fun! So far me and my son have been playing co-op through the main story levels and it's been quite a blast. They introduce the different level mechanics as you progress to help you work out what does what when you get around to trying your own level. The little sackboy character is awesome, they have made it really easy to personalise him/her on the fly and you can come up with all sorts of weird stuff. At the moment my Sackboy looks like a little gangsta complete with massive gold chain and turned cap. You can alter their expressions (which usually has my son in stitches) so he has a 'angry' look at the moment to complete the effect.

The gameplay is fairly standard platform run and jump but it's the variety of the level designs that really set it apart from other platformers. There is just so much stuff that can be made and I haven't even seen half of it! I haven't jumped online or tried one of the custom levels yet but I look forward to giving it a go. So far it's a total winner for me and I now have no problems letting Rockband sit in layby for a while :D. Anyone else here picked up LBP??

Check out this post for some funny LBP ads Sony are throwing out :)

I'll be picking it up along with my eventual PS3 purchase. As it stands it's my biggest (possibly only?) reason for "needing" a PS3.

Edit: Still playing Rock Band 2 mostly, but I've given Burnout Paradise another whirl to see how pretty it looks on the new TV. Same with COD4. I also decided to start a game in Senko no Ronde after owning it for months on end. It's not bad, but I don't think it holds up to Virtual On. Actually, lemme just list off the stuff I've been playing recently:

Zack & Wiki (finished it the other day)
Mass Effect (same reason as Burnout and COD4)
Mega Man 2
Mega Man 9
Wonderboy in Monster Land
Trauma Center New Blood (continuing where I was up to months ago)
