Rock Band vocals and drums as I have an emptyish house for a week while I dog sit, so I got no-one moaning at me

For me, I've been mainly playing Prince of Persia of late, and finished the story last night. It was a very enjoyable romp, if not very easy because of the simple fact that you can't die. The story was pretty predictable but still decent enough, and the light seed collection is very addictive, much like the agility orbs in Crackdown. Still some achievements to finish off, which I may do before the weekend, or I might sell it now before the value plummets any more, then rent it in the future to finish it all off. Easily worth the £18 I paid for it though.

Next on the list will be Mirror's Edge and Call of Duty: World at War, the latter being a review title which should arrive in the next couple of days. Still also have Saints Row 2, Mercenaries 2, Left 4 Dead and Grid which have either not been played or simply not been played enough. I have far too many games.

See, now there's a sense of irony now .
The company that you slagged off for taking on Infinity Ward's Call of Duty, Treyarch, are the company that made Return to Castle Wolfenstein. Grey Matter studios merged into Treyarch.

Playing Valkyria Chronicles atm. A must for any PS3 owner that is a fan of JRPGs/Anime/RPGs as a whole. Really fantastic stuff though becoming rather difficult.

One of the reasons why I'd quite like a PS3

I'm currently playing far too many games! A combination of Prince of Persia, Mirror's Edge, PGR4, Left 4 Dead and Call of Duty: World at War. Also got MK vs DC Universe arriving tomorrow for me to review and a yet undisclosed game that I've been given.

Still at least I can't complain about being bored

I'm shocked.. That I didn't know.

Another review title? Not from Play is it?

No it's from Lisa You know we all had Arcade games for Christmas from her? Well my code didn't work So after her chasing up the publishers and finding out they'd sent her one that was already used, she said she's sent me a game with my review instead
No idea what it is yet and she said it's not very new, but that she thought I'd like it

Currently batting my way through a number of games on different systems.

Mirrors Edge(X360)It's a weird game world thats for sure. Completed lvl 1 last night and I didn't realise that until it finished my heart was really pumping away. Good game and am enjoying it more than I though I would do.

Call of Duty 5(PC)I still rate the single and multiplayer as a bit of a turkey for a number of reasons. However as with a lot of pc games, the modded content is somewhat better than the standard fayre. So me and my buds are putting in a good shift on the Zombie mod. Basically a 4 player coop that gets pretty intense as you keep lvling up. Loads of custom maps out there

Left 4 Dead(PC)Not touched the single player yet. Another enjoyable game and well worth the £20.00 off Steam. The achievment system really does work well with this. I think that there being new content coming out for it is a good thing as I expect that this game could get boring pretty quick.

SuperMario Galaxy (Wii) About an hour into this. Now getting this into a bit of context, it isn't the high hitting visual eye candy of the other consoles or PC. But again it's pretty damn good fun.

Guitar Hero World Tour & Singstar(PS3) I just can't get enough of these two games, I love em. So easy to pick up and play. Really chuffed I hit a 347 note streak on Hotel California over the holidays.

Also got SingStar for Shane Ward - Thats my Goal. Taxi for one ..........................
