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?

Damn. SC:PT on Live.
ANYWAY.
I have Hitman Contracts, Morrowind (alright you can't finish, but y'know) to finish on Xbox, Metal Arms and FF on Cube, and STILL I'm gonna buy loads of N64 games.
ARG!
Then the Cube and Xbox games come out this Autumn/Winter! NOO!

Super Mario Bros.
Got to level 5-1 with 5 lives, but managed to lose them all very quickly.

TimeSplitters 2.. just four characters and four golds left to get now..
Gerrid, you suck. It's harder than Viewtiful Joe and MegaMan, which are tough games. So meh.
Anyway, managed to get to 3-4 but I died stupidly. Really love it, still my favourite game of all time. Yay.

Ahahah Super Mario Bros is one of the easiest games ever. The hardest part is the ever-repeating Bowser's castles, and even they're pretty easy.
Been playing Super Mario Bros. on my NES SP for the last few hours. Really quite a hard game, games today are really easy in comparison. Anyway, managed to get to the second castle with three lives and a fire flower, only to stupidly die and then lose the rest of my lives.
God I love this game, it's just so playable.

Pikmin.. 9 parts left and 13 days to do it!

Gave Metal Arms a go on the first three levels, and I can honestly say I like this game, even though I very rarely tend to go for a style of game like this one.
I'm only playing it on Easy mode, so, lot's of Bruce Willis-style running around and constantly firing - my standard, kicks-me-in-the-balls-every-time tactic for first-person shooters - it works well in this game.
It's made me laugh on a few occasions, too. From the "Of course I F'ing this and that" during the game's introduction to the cries of "Noooo! Aaaaaah!" and "Shoot him!!"... This could be one of the most-underrated games available on the 'Cube - and other 2 systems! - available to date.
