Just got my 241st star in Mario Galaxy 2. Now I just need to rack up some more star pieces so I can get the 9999 and unlock the final star. Also just 100%'d Shadow Complex.

Now I'm playing through Assassin's Creed 2, and will probably pick up Monster Hunter Tri and Sin and Punishment 2 soon.

I've seen quite a lot of people doing star bit farming to unlock star 242. In my game, i'm up to star 200 and I've already got 9999 bits on the bank and over 2000 on Mario. And I haven't done any farming, it's only the bits I collect going through the levels.

I guess I was a bit too OCD in getting bits everywhere I could

Damn, not bad.. I only have something like 8750 and I only have the one star left. I didn't really focus too much on them, since lives were never much of an issue for me. If I would have known they were going to make me collect a bunch of them I probably would have.

I only knew about the 9999 bits for star 242 recently, I was just collecting them for lives and overall level completion. Actually, most of my lives came from coin collection. I have nearly 5000 coins collected.

Can't wait to see how grandmaster galaxy looks like

Mass Effect(PC)- played it on the 360 and didn't like it because of the controls, PC controls are much better IMO, not that far in, I am up to the Citadel

X360

Batman: Arkham Asylum- about to go croc hunting

Dead Space- chapter 9

DS

Dragon Quest IX- just arrived in Stornway

All three games are fun, but I think DQ IX will get most of my attention for awhile. Limbo will be added to that list when it comes out on Wednesday.
