Can't play my 360. I have to grow my garden.

This is completly stupid and new and stupid. I'm on the last chapter of MGS4. Geometry War 2 just came out and I still have Soul Calibur in its wrapping and I can't play any of them!

Why?!? Because I have to attend to my garden. I am playing PixelJunk Eden. A completly simple downloadable game and it is totally addicting. The gameplay is so simple yet challenging and the music is just so completly chill that I feel like I should be smoking something illegal while I play this game.

Has anyone else tried this thing?

(BTW its on PS3)

I'm right there with you! I can't believe how simple yet great some of these games are. Sony has some of the best artistic titles available, when little big planet comes out, I may lose my job!!

  besides this downloadable MSG4, Uncharted, and to some extent Rachet & Clank there is really nothing to play here. And I can't stand that you can't see what your friends are doing on their PS3's. It just shows that they are on.
  Oh and I played the Resistance Demo and that game was crap.

    right now and I must say that Im really not that big a fan of it. Maybe its cuz I started out with the 2nd one years ago maybe it was the first not sure. But I just dont get the hype. Im still in the first act and Ive read that it picks up after the first act but we'll have to see. Luckily it was only a rental for me I would've been pissed if I forked out the 60$ for it. Its beautiful and the cut scenes are delicious but as for the gameplay just not my thing!

      I felt the same way when I first started playing that. I actually went to Uncharted and finished it before going back to MSG4. And it does pick up after the first Act. Infact I really dislike the first act. Seriously if I want to see a war in the middle east I'll turn on the tv.

    if I'm wrong, but I believe with the recent update, you can see what friends are playing. I agree that there really isn't much on the PS3 to play right now. I bought mine purely for the rush of solid games coming this fall :).

Thanks for the mini-impressions. I like innovation. And soothing music is good for the soul. Enjoy your junk. ;)
