I finally joined the PlayStation Network with my PSP (Since I still have not got a PS3 yet) and have been downloading demos and trying them.
I will get Lego Batman I am sure... been playing that a lot.
I also have been playing the Flat Out demo... I really like that one.  I played it for PS2 with my cousin a good bit and I might buy it for the PSP also.

As far as full games...
Handheld:  I FINALLY got around to playing Medal of Honor: Heros (1) onthe PSP. Short but really enjoyed it.  I think this is the first action shooter game I have really enjoyed on my PSP.  I am getting Heros 2 for sure.
I do crawl around and use a lot of stealth when I play, but when quick action is needed, I was pleased with the controls.
Also, Lego Starwars II on the GameBoy Advance.

Console:  Playing Back through GTA: Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories on the PS2

PC:  Been playing AGE of Empires II a lot.

I list all of these because I often play each in the same day.  Like today. ;)

Divinity II - Dragon Knight Saga. Just finished it which took me a long time and boy it's a very good game. Even though there were some moments in which the game seems to enjoy trashing you around the overwhelming positive experience reigns supreme. Awesome RPG with a lot of gameplay value, many things to see and do and of course the occasional humoristic touch does the game well. "One does not simply walk into the Forbidding Archives"? he he he.

I've bought the collector's edition of Divinity II - Ego Draconis (who's statue had to arrive in multiple pieces) and later on I bought the Dragon Knight Saga which is the original game, greatly improved, along with the expansion Flames of Vengeances which finally concludes the story. I had them both sitting in the gamecloset for a long time and lately I though why not give The Dragon Knight Saga a try and damn, I should have done that sooner.

Bring on Divinity III please!

Dungeon Siege III. Terrible. I loved DS1 and 2 but every bit of freedom you had in those games are completely taken away. No character customization, no choice in who's in your party, hell, not even something basic and simple as a health potion or spell can be bought. Or making a save game whenever you like. You can only make save games at certain points in the game so that's another bit of freedom taken away. Everything is very linear. Even the game determines your target during combat, how sick is that? You also won't have to bother thinking what item goes best with what character in your party because that's already determined by the game. And what is up with the GUI? It's clearly meant for consoles, the GUI from DS2 was perfect (simple and direct) but alas, Obsidian couldn't resist but to ruin it. Leveling up also gives you hardly any choice in the matter. Only a selection from some nonsense like abilities and whatever the game calls them can be made. What, you want to increase the strength or dexterity of your character? No can do Sir. Oh and yes, nice fancy graphics. Even though they're the least important in these sorts of games.

I suppose the major problem with this game is that it's called "Dungeon Siege 3", instead, it should have been called "Crappy adventure game with numbers thrown in the mix". Right now it's just a big insult towards anyone ever liking Dungeon Siege 1 and 2.

Edit;
Fixed nerdrage.

Hehehe... I guess Iggy doesn't like your arrogant mug Lucas?  (just joking :) )

Well I have been doing a good bit of gaming lately...

PS2 - Have many hours invested in GTA: Vice City Stories.  Over all I had a lot of fun with the games missions.  I will now start all the rampages and "treasure hunt" aspects of the game... I did the Firetruck missions.  I will do all the other side stuff now. :)

PSP - I got The Warriors for Christmas, so I have been playing that every night... I consider this a greatly overlooked Rockstar game.  I didn't like the movie (The Warriors) but if you get the game, you should watch the movie just to fill in a lot about the "why" the actions or motivations behind the missions and characters.

While there is no driving or even shooting in the game, it has some great tech... like hiding in the shadows, just like in Manhunt.  You can climb most objects, like in San Andreas.  When running, you can jump fences.  You can also use almost anything as a weapon or break wooden creates boards and use those... walk into the butcher shop and pick up a meat cleaver, or even a steak.  You can swap weapons with any of your team in real time (no exit to menu) or give them better/different weapons even.  The weapons eventually break however... like in Bully.  So many things to use as weapons in the game.  Your gang AI is excellent in my opinion as well.  They will watch your back, scatter and hide in shadows to keep from getting arrested if there are police trying to bust you, and they will fight it out with rival gangs and keep them busy while you complete important mission tasks.  Ok... I love this game, end of ramble.  Oh... and the PSP version is nearly an exact port of the PS2 version.

That is my mainstream gaming... the rest of my gaming time has been spent on various electronic handheld game... I have a Tiger Brand Jeopardy game for instance.

That is all for now. :)

I didn't know that.  :) It's just that Dungeon Siege 3 takes away all of the freedom you had in the previous versions, I honestly hate it without restrains.

I've been playing...

N64:  Super Mario 64
PC: A little bit of Age of Empires II
PSP:  Spongebobs Truth or Square

I got a Pocket PC (ipaq H3955) so I could play DooM and Quake for Pocket PC... Quake didn't like my hardware, but DooM plays ok.  I am still trying to figure out how to get Duke Nukem Mobile 3D for Pocket PC (which I have for Tapwave Zodiac already) as it seems to have been download only.

Dungeon Siege III - For the life of me I can't seen to beat Rajani. My two characters are at level 32 and while that should be more then enough I keep getting thrashed around. I looked up walkthroughs and other tips and hints about this battle, I must be doing something wrong.

Tomb Raider Anniversary - Typically not my kind of game, I picked up the Tomb Raider collection during Steam Sale last Christmas. I'm now just toying around in the Croft Manor which is the best place to get the game's controls knowing.
