I'm just wondering what everyone is playing when they aren't playing on their Axims or PCs. Right now I'm sucked into Knights of the Old Republic (2nd time through) for the Xbox. How about you?
I haven't played any games in months.....though, my favorite still remains multiplayer Halo.

Light side or dark? I just finished it as a light side jedi (my gradient was almost white) but now I'm going through it again as a dark lord. I'm telling you... the dark side is almost too evil.
I'm waiting for KOTOR to come to the PC in a couple months. For the moment, I've been sucked back into Warcraft III because I just bought the expansion.
More to play through multiple times are the new Zelda and Metroid. Great games, but too bad the system is failing because it has a hell of a lot more power than the PS2. Don't know how the 'box' fairs because I don't have one. It doesn't have any games I would want (rpg, adventure).
I was going to wait and get KOTOR for the PC until I found a copy on eBay for $35- I couldn't pass it up. It's a great game with plenty of replay value (light side/dark side with various options and endings). It's now my #1 favorite (yes, even over Halo) and best of all, there aren't any lame levels in it (like Halo's library level). It's a must have for RPG and Star Wars fans.
Originally posted by papajackow For KOTOR, what is the gameplay like? Any non-Xbox examples (don't own one).
KOTOR plays somewhat like a 3D version of Baldur's Gate. All attacks, saves, and other factors are determined by "to hit" rolls. The game consists of party based combat, quests, and lengthy discussions. You finally get to be a jedi that does more than just hack up enemies with a lightsaber. This includes resolving disputes and even acting a lawyer at one point or another. Each decision you make determines your alignment (light side, dark side, or anything in the middle). There are also mini-games such as swoop bike racing (the grandfather of pod racing), turret gunning, card games, and even gladiatorial combat. KOTOR was developed by Bioware so that should give you an idea of what to expect here. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that it has a great storyline worthy of the Star Wars name (prequels not withstanding).
