Good job. I thought a video game forum would be fun. My nephew spent the weekend with us and I played A LOT of video games. Suprisingly, we had a blast playing Lego Star Wars. Seems like a pretty dumb game and it's pretty easy but it's really fun. Also played a lot of burnout, NCAA 2006 (of course), 007 Nightfire, Midnight Club 3, Star Wars 3: Revenge of the Sith (which was terrible), and I also got Forza Motorsport but I only played it once so far.

We also hit the PSP pretty hard with Hot Shots Golf 3 and Mercury.

freak:

Mostly Gran Turismo 4 for ps2, which is, in most aspects, superior to Forza. I have played both.

Me and my brother took an empty room in our house, hauled in an old couch, a 32 inch tv and set up 6 of our game systems on the same tv. We got XBox, PS2, Gamecube, N64, Dreamcast and SNES in there right now and all 200 and some odd games. Still breaking it in.

sounds like a great room!! I need one of those.

What else besides GT4? Anything?

I am sure no other racing game compares to GT4, Forza looked decent but not in the same class from what I could tell from just a peek.

Man, Gran Turismo is so great. Playing the game at it's highest levels is the best. The game requires perfect precision in every single move just to stay in the race, on the difficult races of the game. It's amazing and a definite challenge.

Other than that, just playing some NCAA '05 with my brother warming up for '06 in a couple days.

I thought Sith was cool, but the story mode was terrible. I think it should have given the option at the beginning of whether you wanted to join the dark side or try and keep Anikan from turning evil.
The light saber combo moves were really cool. It had potential. Two player mode was good.
I can't wait to play NCAA '06. I'll get my reserved copy tommorrow I guess.

Freak, does Tennessee have the "all orange uni's" this year for an alternate jersey?
What are the Vols ranked?
