Who's got one? (Seek?) What are you playing on it?

When I can wrench mine out of my son's hands ("Daddy, Thomas pezzle. DADDY. THOMAS PEZZLE NOW."), I've been playing the excellent Swords & Sworcery. It's sort of Rez-y in that it's more an art piece than a game, but like Rez it's so beautiful that you can forgive its game-y weaknesses.

I am sad that I have played out most of the must-play games (Furious Avians, Osmos, PvZ, Infinity Blade, Cut the Rope, etc.) on the iPhone. Where an iPad-native game version exists it's usually definitive—I wish I could purge the hours I've sunk into PvZ from my memory particularly, because the iPad version is stunning.

Right now nothing exciting, it's freemium farmville clones I am playing. I use it mostly to write and surf on. I do try a lot of other games though, usually nothing I get too much into. I have actually been playing an unusual amount of console and DS games lately.

I am writing this post on it actually.

I think when the flood of DS and PSP RPGs dry up I am going to be playing a lot more on this; and I'll have A LOT of catch up to do =)
