This is it folks, the final edition of WRUP before GDC 08. We've spent the last several weeks making appointments, scheduling booth visits, and getting our nails done in preparation (we here John Schappert is a sucker for pretty nails). We'll be on hand to cover the latest and greatest happenings in San Francisco this year, so keep your eye on X3F and Joystiq for all the coverage you can stomach. In the meantime, we ask you that one sacred question: what will you be playing this weekend?

CoD4, since I haven't played any this week, more Rock Band, and Super Mario Galaxy.
Oh..and for what it's worth, i'm a Burnout Paradise convert. I Blockbustered it last week and after playing it online with friends, i'm a fan. I just need the scratch to buy it now!
NitroFrost @ Feb 15th 2008 6:30PM
COD 4, Naruto ROAN, maybe some GOW(gears), and more then likely Ninja Gaiden Black.
Xav de Matos @ Feb 15th 2008 6:43PM
I'm going to put Rock Band on hold and continue with PGR4, Medal of Honor: Airborne and maybe get a few games of Halo 3 in on our awesome first pick in Community Content.

Terrence doesn't get his name at the bottom?
Terrence Stasse @ Feb 15th 2008 6:49PM
I'm nights and weekends. I'm the bottom of the X3F barrel. The blogger in the background as it were.

Doesn't mean you can't get some recognition.
Richard, get Terrance on the list!
Terrence Stasse @ Feb 15th 2008 6:47PM
Probably just some Mass Effect and then some old-school RPG action a little Morrowind.
Oh and Richard, was it decided that the rest of the graphics for posts were unsuitable, or is their appearance just going to take some time?

Halo 3, COD 4, DMC 4, and Rock Band (drums). No arcade titles this weekend.
haukke @ Feb 15th 2008 6:51PM
a little lost odyssey and might and magic.....sprinkled with the frontlines demo.
Cyrus @ Feb 15th 2008 6:56PM
PGR4, NASCAR 08, GTA SA
ccc @ Feb 15th 2008 7:02PM
Team Fortress 2
Condemmed
Dark Messiah
maybe RB6V
ChromaTick @ Feb 15th 2008 7:04PM
Finishing up Assassin's Creed.
After that, Burnout Paradise, Culdcept Saga and probably some Rock Band to break things up a bit.
Zelli @ Feb 15th 2008 7:07PM
Some H3 and Rockband
jake18oly @ Feb 15th 2008 8:53PM
I would like to play Rock Band, Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed and Ace Combat 6 but I will probably only have time to play Rock Band with some friends since my wife's birthday is this weekend.
THA1icarus @ Feb 15th 2008 9:35PM
Dmc 4
That's about it, I'm past the 50% mark an not really loving it any more. I'll give it an second try hopefully I'll change my mind....
Sgt Barone @ Feb 15th 2008 11:11PM
I'll mostly be playin Halo 3 (ranked btb and valentines day hoppers), but i'll play Rez HD, Rock Band, and some Orange Box too! Just got my 360 back so i'll be on ALL weekend!

I'm hoping to return a game I already have in exchange for Lost Odyssey. Unfortunately the person who bought it for me lost the receipt AND paid in cash... I'm hoping Wal-Mart still has that 3 returns without a receipt per year policy.
killploki @ Feb 16th 2008 12:34AM
do they allow returns on opened software?
Tony @ Feb 16th 2008 1:17AM
Not that I know of... but this is still sealed. I tried Target, but without a receipt or a card/check to look it up with, they only allow a return worth $20.
Will @ Feb 16th 2008 2:15AM
Hopefully some Marvel Ultimate Alliance
Caleb @ Feb 16th 2008 3:32AM
I'm digginz my Lost Odyssey so far - on disk 2 already ;) And maybe a little Burnout Paradise to feed my high-speed crash appetite. But I'll mainly be playing get-my-homework-done-before-the-week-starts-again >.
LFotF @ Feb 16th 2008 11:09AM
I'm playing a bit of that game myself. I don't care for it all that much, myself.
LFotF @ Feb 16th 2008 11:07AM
I just got a PSP; so I will probably play a lot of GTA: Liberty City Stories and Daxter. Maybe some Turok and Halo 3 on the ol' 360. Hooray for President's day (or anything else that lets me skip my college classes and play games instead)!!
