It sure is. All GTA's are great. Vice City is still the best IMO. I wish they would release San Andreas and Vice City for the 360.

I love playing Call of Duty World at War online on 360, really addictive.

Just got Tiger Woods 2010, Call of Juarez and Warlord for the 360 but waiting for my xbox to be returned as the firmware needed upgrading :?

Been having a go at Rythm Paradise on the NDS and it's driving me mad.

Oh, Rythm Heaven is so funy!


Has anybody tried Korg ds? There's some gems made with that little synth on youtube. I have it, but my music skills just let me do "blip blip blip, blop blop blop"... There's a better version of it comming for the DSi which doubles its strength.

I've got a PS3 and 360. I don't really play on-line very much (actually, hardly ever if I'm honest). I'm currently playing Resistance 2 on the PS3 and Flatout Ultimate Carnage on the 360.

If anyone would like to add me to their friends list, I'm Kiran- on the PS3 (note the '-' at the end of 'Kiran') and Kiran Is Live on the 360. I only have Silver membership on the 360, so although I can't play any games with anyone, you can see how much better you are at games than me :x If you do add me, let me know you are from here!

Are there any decent new games for the Wii out or due out in the next month or so? I think I've outgrown computer games (and the Wii is ideal for a younger player) but I've got some time on my hands and may regress again for a few weeks. Is that tennis game good then?

Fight Night Round 4 for the 360 rather good. 30 wins yet to be beaten, champion in the flyweight division 8)

There's a new sleeper for Wii, Excitebots: Trick racing. I'ts an amazing game! A shame that everybody goes for Mario Kart.

The Nintendo one that uses the Wiimote add on? Supposed to be very good.

Yes, the one that Drico was playing although the idea of the haughty wordsmith actually playing a computer game, let alone the proletarian Wii is rather surprising. Perhaps he could post a review.

I did enjoy the Wii version of Resident Evil 4, which seemed ideally suited to the wiimote. After finishing that my Wii has been semi-retired; slowly gathering dust in the corner of the room. Occasionally I'll drag it out for some Super Mario World, which is still the pinnacle of 2D platforming and the best Mario game.

I love Super Mario World but just don't think that I've got the necessary endurance to play computer games any more; I get too distracted by other stuff these days. The last game I actually completed was Goldeneye. :oops:
