I've played PGR2 and found it dissapointing.. very slow despite prettiness. Haven't played the other two games so can't pass judgement, but seriously, two games? *Two* killer aps apart from Halo? That isn't worth getting a system for.
The game does get much faster further on...nothing like Burnout speeds though.
If it weren't for Live...I probably wouldn't have the Xbox now. There are a few games I love playing offline, but the thought of just having them and the other games offline makes me go "meh" at Xbox.
Reggie rules, NGC thinks Nintendo should give away 2 controllers a memory card and a Reggie figurine when they launch Revolution. How I laughed.
I was as Ninty as anyone, owning a NES, SNES, GB, GC, GBA and GC but because of the lack of games coming out for it recently it's lost its ways a bit. Role on next year is all I can say.
We had a great start, a crap middle... but PAper Mario 2, Pikmin 2, Metroid Prime 2 and Donkey Konga should liven up the next 3 months.
However theres at least 5 good games I want next year.

Well I'm glad to see you interested in Paper Mario 2...
But Donkey Konga's going to be really good fun...
And I thought we were all looking forward to Pikmin and 90% of us can't wait for Prime.
What about tales of Symphonia???

Wasn't too keen on first release for each, although I'd deffinately be willing to play both if I have the oppertunity.
> What about tales of Symphonia???
That's another title I'm slightly interested in.
To be honest I'm more of a coop/multiplayer guy myself so if Primes multiplayer is anything more than a crappy add in I'll probably get it.
Speaking of coop, isn't it about time they released a Mario & Luigi coop game.
