I know I played a version of BttF2 that wasn't so bad. Perhaps Commodore 64?

Then again in those days I found most games fun, as long as it moved and made bleeping sounds I was good with it.

Finished Max Payne 2 on the original Xbox - really enjoyed it - not as good as the first game though. (Thoroughly worth the £1.00 I paid for it!)

Also finished Halo 3 - nothing new but great fun.

Just realised how many games I have... it can snow again for all I care...

Back to the Future was soo terrible on all formats I remember - Master System, Amiga, C64 all crap. Such a shame because it is a great licence/film franchise. Perhaps the new "Telltale" adventure games on BTTF will be worthy of the name.

Dragon Quest 9 (NDS).

Absolutely - brilliant - game. For the NDS it looks stunning (on par with DQ8 for the PS2 but with less loading time) and as for the JRPG 'standard', it makes one tiny improvement that makes all the difference between an annoying and an enjoyable experience; on the world map there are no random encounters; you actually see your enemies there and can thus avoid them if you want, or run into them on purpose. Speedy leveling and speedy travel.

And as always in a DQ game, there is plenty of exploring and discovering to do. It is my favorite DS game to date.

Pacman Championship Edition DX on XBox Live Arcade - a snip at 800 points. Really addictive.

I'm playing Arcanum: Of Steamworks & Magick Obscura at the moment. Quite nice Steampunk RPG with a rather dark setting.

is this worth the upgrade from the earlier Championship Edition?

I am currently playing the first Dead Rising on 360. The saving system is absolute crap but a very fun single player game.
