What game have you been mostly playing this week?

Please don't just write the name of the game... write a little description of the game, and why you like it so much or something.

Ta.

Excellent Stuff, wish I was in the USA, especially since its vacation time over their right now.. Glad to here CBFD is a great game.

The US is pretty cool. If someone as stupid as GW Bush can become President anythings possible! The Arcades are dirt cheap there too, oh and Walmart! and TacoBell!... I think we need a Taco bell in Britain our fast food chains are just poor in comparison!

Wait your 5 - 8 hours behind, its late here so Im off to bed!

sorry man i cant complete it. i have gone completly anti playstation. i only play on my snes and 64 these days. i have packed away the psone in my closet. the damn thing is so small i'll probably never find it again! congratulations on completing driver 2 though. i agree running the hitman off the road is the hardest level cos its so easy to just go flying off the side of the mountain.

but anyways maybe in a few years time when the playstation 9 comes out i might pick out that psone and have one last blast on Driver.

I'm in the US, yo. Been out here since Wednesday. A friend of a friend that I'd never met before bought it. Didn't get much of a chance to get into it though, since everyone was playing it. Once I finally got a turn at the controls though, it was actually rather fun.

I was playing it non stop yeah. but i have given up not only beacuse it is too hard but because it just became a bit to repetitive.

Hurahhh I've just completed Driver2, only 4 cities though, a pity as I was hoping for more really. However theyre much bigger than the cities in the first game and more fun to race in, and the cut scenes are much better!

Ortega, you must pick up the joypad and complete the last level with the helicopter! I'm not saying its easy but its certainally not the hardest level in the game, infact the hardest level in the game is probably the level before the last level where you have to drive up a mountain and drive the gunman off the road!
In other words Ortega if you got to the last level then victory is almost assured.

To tell you the truth I'm a little disapointed, the last level on the original Driver is really, really, really hard and took me 3hrs of non stop playing(alot considering you usually write off the car in under 30 seconds),.. by comparison the last level on Driver2 only took me 30 mins to finish!

Anyway if you win you get to see another nice cut scene (I wont spoil it for you!). Plus you get to hear the song

"What Condition my Condition was in!" as the credits role.

This game is the business, I just cant wait until the next Driver game comes out. To tell you the truth I was really impressed by so many of the levels in Driver2, chasing the locomotive, driving the car up a ramp so as to jump onto the back of moving boat, the mountain chase and the helicopter chase on the last level. This game comes highly recommended.
I just cant wait to see what reflections will do with the next Driver, hopefully there will be another for the Playstation and a new version for the Playstation2 aswell.

This week, I have been mostly playing...

Quite a few things actually:

ASHERON'S CALL - the MMORPG - Actually I just quit this; I was getting fed up of going against the Blood guild, only to continuously get stomped into the floor.

THIEF - the best sneak 'em up around (though it's old) - I decided to try out a few new MODs of this. Though they weren't bad, they failed to capture the spirit of Looking Glass Studios'.

COUNTER-STRIKE - the online FPS - Just because.

FINAL FANTASY IX - you know what it is - I didn't get to play this very long, but it's so nice to see the return of fantasy to the series. Those sci-fi games posing as 'Final Fantasy' games were annoying. [BTW, can someone please explain to me why Square put a transvestite (Kuja) in their game?]

PERFECT DARK - Multiplayer modes of this have *yet* to get boring. Such a great game.

...and...last but not least...

CONKER'S BAD FUR DAY - Got to play this thing for about ten minutes on one of the muliplayer modes. The multi wasn't quite up to par with Perfect Dark, but it was still a blast just to, like, TOUCH the game.

You all know what the Pokemon games like and if you don't then you haven't lived!

STBOF is a turn based PC strategy in which you have to try to conquer the galaxy!
