I'm playing Guild Wars with Noah... when his connection works. We're at level 18.2 and the goal is 20 and then we'll try BATTLEFIELD 2!!!
I'm also playing:
Killer 7 on the Gamecube. What a messed-up game that is. Fun though.
Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory on the PC. Probably got a couple more levels to go until I finish. Then I can start one of the other unplayed FPS games on my hard drive like Riddick or SWAT 4 or Brothers in Arms.
I'm also playing GTA: San Andreas on PC but haven't loaded that up in a couple weeks.
I just finished a 21-day free trial of City of Heroes. Tons of fun but I haven't bothered to officially subscribe and probably won't. Too many other games.
I also just played the 6 level trial version of Fate. Lots of fun but again, I'm not gonna bother forking over the dough (even though it's only $20.)
I'm supposed to be playing Dark Age of Camelot with triggercut and his cowbell guild but I wasn't feeling the magic and now I'm feeling guilty.

PC - Jedi Academy but haven't gone back to it in weeks.
XBOX - Just started Psychonauts a few days ago. Fantastic so far, great art and character design as you would expect. I am already being pulled between taking the time to try to collect everything (or close to it) and pushing ahead to interact with more characters and see the next area of interest.
Before that, I started up Simpsons Hit and Run but haven't gone back to it in a few weeks.

Just finished the main story missions of GTA:SA but still playing to practice my helicopter skills and to finish taking over all gang territory.
Started yet another Pirates! game but this time, I'm going to try and play it as a peaceful merchant.

I'm finishing up an epic game of Civ3 Rise & Rule. My Chinese are about to keep the Celts from winning a culture victory by reducing their cities to rubble.
When I finish, I'm going to revisit GalCiv for a game or two.
Then I'll install and learn Rise of Nations.
By the time I'm tired of that, CIV ought to be out.
Yeah, I like empire builders.

Trying to finish Half Life 2 after a loooong break.
At this point, I am just stumbling through...sprinting like the Running Man towards some obscure finish line.
I have to say, this is the part I hate about FPSes...and why I don't play that many. The end games seem to be a whirlwind of F6, then F9... (quick save/quick load)...it's that point that the game becomes un-fun for me (could be because I suck also)
I absolutely loved the first 3/4 of the game...LOVED it...even the boat sequence, which was pretty stressful, was fun...but this apocalyptic, ceilings falling on head, War of the Worlds spider/obliterator targeting my butt alone, blindy Imperial floating torture bots popping up...chaos...is a little much for this old man.
I wish I had my buggy. Or a light saber. Any mods for that?

I've been really jumping around this summer after playing EQ2 almost exclusively since it came out.
I've just finished The Bards Tale.
I've been playing The Sims 2 with my daughter some.
I've played some Rise of Nations Gold and will play more.
I've gone back to Age of Wonders Shadow Magic for the last few days. I never clicked with this game but I felt I should give it another try. This time it's starting to sink in. I'm on the way to winning a game for the first time ever. I just have the mop up to do, but that looks like it will take awhile.

I've been on a bit of a shooter binge lately, primarily playing:
1) Counterstrike: Source
2) Halo (PC version)
I've also played a little Quake 3: Arena and Unreal Tournament 2004.
My old standbys, World of Warcraft and Fate, are still getting some playing time too.
Oh yeah, guess we can throw some Painkiller and Doom 2 in there as well.

Syberia: I like this game a lot, and at the same time I hate it. Beautiful locations, etc. Semi-interesting storyline. But all the running back and fourth, over and over, is annoying. Even Kate's running speed doesn't seem fast enough anymore. It's taking me a while to finish it. I'll play a good 4 hour session or something, then stop for a week or two.
Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask: I never did play this game back when it came out on the n64 (even though I have it), so I'm playing it on an emulator with a gamepad. Mainly because of savestates, not having to hook up the 64 and take up the tv, etc.. It's been at least a week or more since I've played it. I need to go back and finish it. But I want to finish Syberia first.
I've actually been playing games surprisingly less than usual lately.

Another one for Jagged Alliance 2. Mercs have just finished up Cambria, got a full attack squad and a decent mo up squad training up militia. Queen still doesn't quite know what's coming. 
Downloading RTR 6.0 right now. I expect a good portion of my evening will be devoted to that. Sharpen the swords and prep for pillage boys.

I'm rather enjoying Guildwars now. Anyway, all told i'm playing:
Guild Wars
War World
Sudeki
Sudden Death
Soon I will delve into Space Rangers 2, back to Boiling Point (after they patch this week I hear), and probably Europa 1400 and Medieval Lords to finish those up.
My staples I ALWAYS play are Savage, Halo, JointOperations for now.

Lately - not playing all that much. Zelda/Minish Cap on the GBA. On the PC, just started playing some more DROD (Deadly Rooms of Death). I need to go finish T2X (a major fan mod for the Thief series).
My excuses:
My husband's pc is having problems and I'm trying to fix them. My pc is running hot and I need to open it up and see what's going on. And I've been reading.
