I still haven't played Fear 1...have a used copy around here somewhere.

Fear 2 is pretty good

House of the Head: Overkill is freakin' awesome

Deadly Creatures is pretty damn good too

Fear 2 is available for XBOX360, PS3, and PC. House of the Dead and Deadly Creatures are both Wii only titles.

Looks cool, but I'm not allowed to play fighting games anymore; broke too many controllers over Soul Caliber II

I restarted Fallout 3 today. I messed up initially with my skills so I am working on the game again. I am doing the quests for the book in Megaton also, I skipped them the first time. This game is a blast, I also got a pet dog. That rocks.

VirtualSmitty · 02-22-2009, 11:22 PM

Street Fighter IV is beyond awesome. I seriously need to buy an arcade stick.

spooble · 02-23-2009, 08:28 AM

I beat Shaun White Snowboarding this weekend. It's not a GREAT game, but it was good enough to keep me interested. I think this may be the first game I try for the Platinum trophy.

I had the dog for about 3 minutes-was attacked by giant rad scorpions and the dog didn't have a chance.

I didn't even make it out of the junkyard before my dog got killed. The robot on the other hand, that was badass

The wife has been getting sick of the shooting and explosions when I play COD4 and COD5, so I've been playing with my headphones on. OMG. I can hear so much more now. I can actually hear footsteps when someone's trying to creep up on me. Everything sounds so much more refined. It's a totally enhanced experience. I'd really have to crank up the sound to hear everything on my home theater. Especially to drown out the noise from the PS3 fan. I should have been playing with them on from the beginning.

Now I prefer to play with the headphones on, even when she's not around. I'll see how long it lasts.

I prefer to game with headphones too. If you want to get a nice pair of gaming phones, look at stuff by Audio-Technica.

Yea, I actually prefer headphones as well. I have a tritton headset that I like a lot, but what a pita to set up.
