Music Banter - What Game Are You Playing Right Now?

There's been so many chances where I could've gotten an Xbox 360 at a thrift store for cheap, but knowing the infamous Red Ring of Death issue I've always been apprehensive to buy one, even for $20 or so.

I have a PS3, but I haven't really found many games that I'd probably like. My PS3 collection basically just consists of the Uncharted trilogy, Sly: Thieves in Time, and South Park. You guys have any rec's for some good PS3 games? As far as what kind of games I usually like the most, I'm an old school FPS fan and I also tend to really like platformers and Burnout-esque racing games.

My 360 is like a decade old and still fine. The disc tray is temperamental and I had to replace the power adapter brick thing a few years ago but it still runs like a dream.

I bought one pretty late in the cycle, so it's a 360 Elite (or something like that). This model didn't have the ring of death issue.

It's not the genres you asked for, but my first answer for both PS3 and 360 will always be Armored Core V. I love that game to death.

I've never actually played a mech game before, despite owning Mech Warrior 2 and Earthsiege 2 for PC. Never been able to get those to work, so maybe that'll be a good gateway into the genre. Thanks, I'll definitely keep that game in mind.

I love fighting games but I've never been very good at Street Fighter.

Every time I've met a woman on a date, there's been an inverse relationship between how many interests we've got in common and how tolerable I'd find her personality to be.
I'm never gonna be happy.

Wait so the more things you have in common the less annoying you find her? I mean that's what you technically said right? I think I got that right at least. I can't figure out if that's what you meant though.

If I ever pass through Texas, I'm either gonna steal her from you, or you from her. I don't know which yet.
