Timesplitters 2
I don't know why, I finished Zelda and decided to return to my older titles rather than lunge into any new ones (Pokemon soon yay). I should really play the still far from complete Metroid but that bores me so I had a laugh a minute blast on the frankly excellent and addictive Timesplitters 2, had some mates over to play it too. This is turning out just like Perfect Dark on how much I play it.
So go on what have you been playing? and why?

Mario Kart: Double Dash!!
Unlocked the Special Cup, but no matter who I play as, and no matter how hard I try, I just can't quite manage to get anything better than the Bronze medal!
I usually mess-up in Wario's Collisseum, first. But first-placed finishes in the next-two never seems to be enough to even nick a Silver with a 2nd-place on Rainbow Road.
Heh, but I did manage to hit myself with one of my own red shells (I think I've now done that in every Mario Kart game! :D ).
I was going up a speed-ramp in Wario's place, and decided to fire one, in hope of catching the 2nd-place guy as he was in mid-air... But I didn't. The shell didn't pick-up speed, but I did - and BANG! :D
A real pain-in-the backside, though, as I was doing so well...
But NOBODY beats me on Bowser's Castle!! :@ :D

I've really been playing this mobile phone game triple pop. Has had me bloody addicted for hours. These mobile phone games capture the real essence of gaming lost with silly storylines, violence and graphics.
Shame N-Gage didn't follow the simple but smart approach.

I was close to giving that a go earlier.
But Mario Kart swept in again.

Been playing THUG today. Seems cool [though much simpler than THPS4), and I still wish the Face Mapping wasn't a PS2 exclusive.
The other thing about THUG is that the off board bits seem very well implemented (except for the driving). Walking around is suprisingly useful and helps to get rid of the past THPS woes like going up steps :S
