Video games: I'm on a retro kick... and the fact that PlayStation is "retro" makes me feel old indeed. Nearly all the games I'm dabbling in at the moment are PS1 games, either remade or re-released on current consoles. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Final Fantasy Tactics, StarOcean 2. These are the games that are consuming the most of my time.
Board Games: I'm a member of a board gaming club now. We do both card and board games. My favorite board game at the moment is Fury of Dracula, where one person as Dracula tries to hide from Mina Harker, Van Helsing, Lord Goldaming, and Dr. Seward long enough to carry out his evil plans, while the hunters try to find and kill him - though Dracula's no slouch in a fight! There's also Dominion, another game I'm planning to bring when I come to Slidell, where you try to conquor the land by building a deck. It's a neat mechanic.
RPGs: Well... none, really. Other than this one.

Video Games: I love living with people who have next gen consoles. Right now I'm messing around on Fable II and just starting Lost Odessy... which kicks the ass of just about any Final Fantasy game I've seen (with the possible exception of tactics).
Board Games: Nil, unless you count that time I played Risk last year.
RPGs: Playing in one DnD 4E game and DMing another. Participating in a Exodus d20 LARP thing, which I still have mixed feelings about. Oh, and this once it starts up.

I apparently picked up the wrong Square Xbox game... I got Last Remnant, which is... well, decent, apart from being nigh-unplayable without an HDTV. I don't have an HDTV.
Tales of Vesperia is a lot of fun, though.

Huh. It looks like a Square game... though the fact that it's all ex-Square people explains that.

That... actually sounds pretty awesome.

Also combine in the fact that Lost Odyssey has possibly the saddest back story for a character ever, and it makes for a very entertaining play through.

O, as you apparently have access to a 360, if you havent played it yet, Mass Effect was awesome. Infinite Undiscovery was also pretty good.
