Ghost Recon for the 360. It's not as good as I'd anticipated but it's still pretty good. I've had it for a week and I'm only half way through. Multiplayer sucks dead bear.

The Godfather Game.

I had my doubts at first, but after renting it, I went out and bought it.

It's a lot like Grand Theft Auto, which is fun, and Sonny Corleone scares the shit out of me.

My wife, who - ecept for Fatal Frame Two and Katamari - hates video games has developed an obsession with Mario Kart Double Dash. I had to keep holding back and stategically losing on purpose then beat her on the last race or two to make sure she wouldn't get discouraged and would want to play again. It worked. Now she is always wanting to play because she gets excited about beating me and then when I beat her she wants to play more to get better.

Well, now she is starting to kick ass, even though she hasn't mastered the finer points of gameplay such as correct item usage, appropriate times to use short cuts, power sliding and blue sparks.

Its this unusual game where you wander through a bunch of rooms filled with words as you view them semi-anonymously. There's bickering and gripes and drawn out smiles and inaudible laughter and sometimes depending on the choose of lascivious/pointless/bitter/stupid remarks you place, you get the see the answers of other semi-anonymous players. Its kinda neat some of the time, but that depends on the strangers you see online.

Sounds good. I've been trying to get Vendetta to play something other than The Sims and Soul Calibur III ... I think I she'll get round to playing the Monkey Island games that I gave her soon!

I'm about to go kick it in my room and play Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney on my DS.
I don't know if I'm just a little on the slow side or if this really is a game that makes you think. Either way I'm enjoying the hell out of it.

I've been playing virtual pool mobile. It sounded like it was going to be as much fun as washing dishes but it has great graphics, accurate angles and realistic shooting.

Is that the elder scrolls game?

It looks interesting, but I haven't touched a console game in a while nor do I own any console systems since they were pawned during the "Save UbikRex" money drive.

probably so. But I can't justify spending 500 dollars for that kind of entertainment value that will only last a month. I'd rather dump that kind of cash for something a lot shorter in hour length form.

I like that game cause you could steal like crazy and murder everyone on sight and continue to play the game out in certain areas. I killed the Tribunal god guy in the elderscroll III game, and that was me jumping ahead where I could get to him and then I fought him to see if I could kill him and I did. But I couldn't finish the game since he was dead so I just killed every person in the city and continued to get chased by every guard in the new ghost city that guarded it....this was sometime back.

i just started over because 20 hours and 11 levels in i iced a soul stealing bitch in cool black and gold armor, and i thought to look it up (since it said my sword, stolen from her corpse, was a quest item) and it turns out u have to kill her around level 20 or so, and therefore i fucked the game up in the same manner you did.

Smoking the moon sugar was great because the guards would arrest you for having it and merchants wouldn't sell you anything if you carried any.

Note to viewers.

None of these things are actually great.

I've really gotten into Lost Magic on the DS, big time, I close my eyes and I see HP bars and little monsters.
Love it.
RPGs were losing my love because of all the tedious menus, drawing symbols to release magic just makes it new again and I love it.
