Weekend, what are you playing?

Here we are the at first weekend of May. PSN is still down but that can't keep a good gamer down. So what are you playing this weekend?

Migoy: Dissidia Duodecim is still hogging my PSP but I have been able to touch some other games. Started Cave Story again and I forgot how good that game was so I'll definitely be playing some more of that. I bought a Gun accessory for the Wii and it works suprisingly well, better than I expected at least so that made me revisit some of my older Wii shooting games such as Resident Evil: The Dark Side Chronicles. I also just got Thor: God of Thunder on the Wii and with that, by Odin's might I say thee NAY!

Quash: Saturday i joined a Super Street Fighter 2v2 tournament and had a blast. Won my first 2 matches, hit the winner's bracket and went downhill from there. After my team got eliminated I stayed to watch the Grand Finals and watching the best the Philippines has to offer was a treat. I played Chun Li and my partner played Honda, I didn't know my partner before the tournament since we teamed up in their forums but we both did well.

The tournament was a success so congratulations to pinoy2dfighters for a job well done, will make a post about it soon with pictures from the event. Since that tournament is over, i think ill continue my 4th Mass Effect 2 play through and get it over with.

“And I’ve just been out in LA doing something that’s going to be announced in May,” he added. “I’ve just been out there doing some bits and pieces, and one is to do with… I can’t say too much.”

New RAGE Gameplay trailer

A five-minute video of RAGE gameplay was released and is called " The Shrouded Bunker Mission". The player is tasked to go in a bunker to blow up a gang's bomb caches stored in a bunker. I think it looks amazing and if you like the Fallout style, you might like this too.

Latest Trailer for Brink

Splash Damage just released a new trailer explaining the types of classes you can be when playing Brink. This game looks amazing and the ability to move around difficult environments is cool but I'm still 50/50 of this game is worth the buy.The game is days away from release and they have been releasing tutorial videos over and over which makes me think this game won't need a game manual.

Brink is being released earlier than expected, it will be out on May 10  for PC, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.
