I'm currently revisiting Devil Survivor 2 so that I can get the last ending. Been playing Pokemon Conquest on-and-off too, wading my way through the post-game content.
Since I've been on an SRPG kick recently, I might try looking into seeing if I can find Infinite Space for cheap, as it seems to have good word-of-mouth on NeoGaf and, well, it's a space opera. Not too many of those in the RPG genre.
Play one or the other. They are both different games for me, dispute the obvious similarities. If you are looking for a challenge, then do so.
One note about Dark Souls. It probably has one of the most deepest character building systems I ever seen. There's no wrong or right way to build a character. You'd find yourself a tad bit overwhelmed at first, especially when you are playing and trying to find your own style of play.
Would you recommend getting Demon Souls or Dark Souls first?
@The:

I have no idea. But, Demon's Souls I guess. It's the first game.
That's not to say you'll be missing anything if you skip to Dark Souls. It's has more a more metriodvania style of exploration, and the difference between being dead and alive are nowhere near as punishing as it was in Demon's Souls.
@The:
I doubt it hombres!! but I hope you're playing International Zodiac Edition because so far it's coooolicious!!!!! Wickedest Final Fantasy game to actually play!!!!
I just got most of the cast and it's mondo slammin'!!!!!
I like this sorta posting style, please keep it up. And it's just the regular English version. The IZ edition has been tempting, though my modded PS2 won't play most games properly anymore so whatever.

Speaking of The Beast's posting…
I cannot stop listening to that signature. I've been listening to it for the worse part of an hour. It takes the "SANIC" meme to a whole new level. I swear the amount of derp that guy has to deal with would make any other hedgehog quit that franchise. He's a trooper.
Playing SMT Nocturne. When I went to secret temple, with last magatama for first time everybody died. Now team actually able to defeat everyone there, but I can't find last pillar. SMT hates me T_T. Strange Journey was a lot worse though.
Still finding my balance.
I got plenty of wins with this setup, but 3 of my pokemon are weak to fire attacks.
Something needs to change but i don't know what. All of these guys have proven themselves to be reliable heavy hitters.
I got a new computer that can handle games so I've been PC gaming.I am playing some Minecraft and TF2 and I am thinking of getting Payday The Heist and/or Orcs Must Die 2.Have anyone played one of them?
Payday is similar to Left4Dead (and I suggest you get L4D2) if you know what that plays like. I actually have never played OMD though.
Payday is nice but it has some issues with certain graphics cards; check the steam forums for it, you'll see how to solve them (or not).
OMD was really great; it's a third-person shooter with tower defence elements blended togheter. OMD2 has this 2 players co-op mode but I still didn't play it so I can't really say you to get it. I suggest you to watch this long video (you don't really have to watch everything), it's a nice look on OMD2.

Do you play via wifi in BW? If so, we can spar sometime(single or double or both, though I'm more of a double battler), even though my main team is somewhat unfair.
Just got Transformers: War for Cybertron for $7 on Steam. The story mode is okay, but I'm not a huge fan of the multiplayer (my entire team dies in a single hit, and it seems like the opposing teams automatically start with extra health, making them virtually unkillable. Don't know if it will improve if I keep playing, but it wasn't a good first impression). Also, I've been playing League of Legends and Starcraft 2, though I'm not particularly good at either of them.

Sorry, but my DS doesn't accept my internet type.
it sucks, but unless i get an entirely new router/service i can never trade/battle with my DS again.
So as a result, i can only battle on 'pokemon online'.
I usually go to the 'pokemon online' server, in the 'Tohjo Falls' room.
Playing Dark Souls and Minecraft (PC/360).
To be honest… I haven't been struggling that much in Dark Souls (yet).
Still waiting for the release of Guild Wars 2 at the end of this month.
Been playing Team Fortress 2 and Civilization V whenever I can. Soon me and my brother will play the closed beta of RaiderZ, a MMO with RPG elements blended with almost everything I love about Monster Hunter; atleast I hope so.
GJardim what's your Steam username?

Is it because you can't access WPA type security codes? Because there IS a way to go from WPA to WEP without changing services if you really wanted to do so
Was testing something out in Stalker Call of Pripyat, when the game slowed way down and I saw something weird in the distance. When I got closer it turned out to be a Duty guy's corpse glitching in a tree.
I also beat a couple more missions in Hitman 2 and played about an hour in Mount and Blade Warband Napoleonic Wars.
GJardim what's your Steam username?
It's GJBabs, we can play sometime if you want so. But, remember that I'll lag a lot.
Doing a Nuzlocke Challenge on HeartGold.
Damn, I already have some dead Pokemon.
And it really hurt.
My biggest loss was my Bellsprout "Kiss" and my Butterfree "Coccoon" which was a pain in the ass to train since its only move after catching was "Harden".
I'll miss those two.
I fiddled around with the wifi features in Pokemon White for the first time ever. I fought a couple guys from Japan and one girl from Florida. Didn't do too badly considering that my team wasn't really built for competitive play, but man, some of those teams were crazy. There was one guy who had a team of Dragonite, Gallade, Charizard, Washer Rotom, Eelektross, and Tyrannitar. It's definitely inspired me to focus more on competitive team-building when White 2 comes out. It's pretty cool battling someone from the other side of the world, now.
The GTS is completely asinine, but I did leave a spare Metagross out there for a similarly-leveled Kingdra to see if anyone would bite.

Playing Tales of Symphonia to completion on Mania for the first time on a whim.
I'm loving the nostalgia kick so far, let's hope it holds once I get deeper into the completionist part of the game.
I reinstalled Alpha Protocol as I didn't give it much of a chance the last time I played it. It's really awesome now that I actually play it. The dialogue system is similar to the Mass Effect games, but it goes further with the consequences. I never really felt that what you said in Mass Effect had much of an effect at all. For example, in the first mission I did I had to get to a weapons dealer and talk to him. I bust through the door and pointed my gun at him. In the end I let him go, but I could have killed him. By letting him go I got an extra mission as they followed him and discovered some stuff. If I had killed him however, weapons dealing in the area would have gone down and enemies in that area in the future would have had weaker weapons. Not to mention that if you're in a conversation with an enemy (or just not a friend, I'm not sure) you can pull your gun and attack at any time during the conversation, which is pretty cool.
I started to replay Okami again.
Playing DARK SOULS mostly, at the Four Kings boss encounter currently. Yeah…
I'm gearin' up for more 'Splosion Man. I find that it's a game that's great for when you feel like playing before bed but you don't want one that will keep you up for too long.
Playing SKYRIM, trying to get all the armors.
As it turns out, apparently someone bit my trade offer, and now I'm the proud owner of a Japanese Kingdra (or キングドラ, I suppose) that's not only at a higher level than my own ante, but also seems to be better than theWater Pokemon that I've been using in my main team. Not bad, I suppose I'll be taking advantage of the GTS in the future.
Anyone else doing the doodle olympic games on google? I'm SO annoyed I can't get 3 stars/coins on any of them FML

If you decide to play the competitive side of the Pokemon games I would recommend you a site that is really popular around the internet and it's all about competitive Pokemon.It's called Smogon.There you will find Pokemon movesets,tips,articles and other useful information that you need for competitve play.And I need to tell you that more 70% of the people in the random match ups in B/W are using hacked Pokemon,even after Nintendo tried to protect the Wi-Fi from these kind of people.
Don't worry, I'm familiar with Smogon, through I'd prefer to come up with effective sets on my own rather than let someone else do all the work for me. More rewarding that way.
I don't think any of the teams I fought were hacked (apart from maybe hacking to give them some of the Pokemon to begin with), but I already have a team in mind for myself. It would help though if I stopped doing stupid things like trying to use Earthquake on a Rotom…at least two separate times!

Hahah! That is one of the joys about battling random trainers online. I like losing and seeing a variety of great teams.
There ARE hacked teams, but I'm not really bummed about it. What I care about is legitimately possible stats.
And.. I think the network detects Pokemon with impossible states and moves anyway.
I know alot of people battle single, but I think you should give a few double battles a try. Believe me. I find double battles alot more deeper than single, mianly because there are pokemon that do better in a team than solo. There's also tend to be unpredictably and strategies as well. Like for instance, I can defeat a whole team full of Ubers or Overused with a typical 1v1 moveset with Pokemon considerably "weaker" with a really cleaver moveset.
And… If you want. We can battle/spar sometime. I really suck at single battles(since my moves are built for partners), but I can manage.
Sure, I wouldn't mind battling if I'm able. Send me a PM or something if you ever feel up to it.
Currently replaying Mario RPG: Legend of the 7 stars, Paper Mario and Paper Mario: Thousand-years door! I had to erase one of my old files for each games because I didn't have any place to start a new game! 
Downloading Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 Triple Thrill Pack. Aww Yeah.

Good times playing those games. Gooooood times!
I been hanckering for some Sim City. 4 won't work on 7, Creator for the DS is some time travel crap and Social isn't really doing much for me (just feels like Cityville. having to ask people to do stuff for you :/
Also started playing Beyond Good and Evil. It's a lot of full. enjoying it.
So these days I am playing Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD like a maniac.I don't know but I really enjoy this game,mainly for its amazing soundtrack.Other than that I've been playing some TLoZ:Twilight Princess,some Payday:The Heist and Pokemon Conquest.Man Pokemon Conquest is a really great game..
Still playing Alpha Protocol. There are a few missions that are just talking, which I find pretty cool. I had to go into an ice cream shop because I needed information held in servers in the back. It was incredibly tense. I managed to talk my way back to get the info but when I was leaving I was thinking the guy was going to attack me and there was an option to execute him but I didn't. Ended up that he was just giving me an ice cream. I really want more games like Alpha Protocol but it'll probably never happen. I also started a new game in Stalker Call of Pripyat and can finally play it on max settings.
Started playing Godhand and white knight chronicles…
Enjoying Godhand immensely, WKC is starting off so very slow... but I'm sure it'll pick up.
The Last Story.
I'm very impressed so far.
Finished Fable 3.
Wow, that was very weak. :/
Now I remember why Abe's Oddysee produced my very first rage quits as a kiddo.
Or maybe I'm just stupid when it comes to figuring out what to do in the hidden levels.
More RCT2. And I have some screenshots I thought I'd upload too.

Playing Skyrim again. Got like 10 hours between right now and yesterday so far. Love this game. Wood elf archer/mage.
Since I've been at University, I've been playing two games simultaneously. One long epic and one I can play in short bursts. Now that my Metal Gear marathon is over I picked back up Final Fantasy VI and just downloaded Megaman 9.
Anybody good with technology here? I'm having a delay problem playing Megaman 9 on my PS3 and it is noticeable. Anything I can do to fix the conversion?
Maybe I was inspired by Game Grumps but I recently started playing Secret of Mana again & getting much further than before (usually I'd only play like 10 minutes then stop). Feels good :)
Alpha Protocol is still fucking awesome. Espionage, betrayal, and coverups. There are so many chances to kill main characters that it amazes me that they allowed that much freedom in the plot.
Finished up on New Vegas yesterday. Got my Plat. Siding with Caesar's Legion and the Powder Gangers is no fun at all since pretty much everywhere is closed off for you. Love how in Goodsprings the Doc won't help you defend the town but if you side with the Gangers he'll fight alongside Goodsprings :/ Hell the rewards for siding with the Gangers is minimul at best. Only advantage is that it makes it a helluva lot more easier to recruit that Sheriff without everyone in the correctional facility trying to kill you.
Right now, I'm trying to beat Viewtiful Joe on the Ultra-V-Rated difficulty. I haven't progressed any further than the Magnificent Five since 2005, and now I clearly remember why - even the first boss is freakishly hard, since any attack that he lands takes away a third of your health. Might just start a new file on that difficulty, so I can get as much health as possible before that boss rush.
EDIT: Okay, scratch that - given that you can't see the skull marks and you can't slow down time, the tutorial is basically unplayable (since, when you encounter the spinning enemies, you can't tell where they're aiming, and their attacks kill you in one hit). At least I got to Gran Bruce for the boss rush, and I keep my points if I have to continue after running out of lives, so I should be able to do this if I'm patient enough.
Playing Mother 3, I don't get the rhythm system like at all.
