Actually, I've been playing a lot of nothing. I've considered picking up Forza 2 more than a few times, but I just can't get over the feeling that I'll never play it. I may rent it sometime soon. Maybe I'm just biding my time until NCAA comes out in a month.
Guitar Hero 2 is the only thing that would qualify as a game I'm still playing. I beat the career on hard mode last weekend, but haven't picked it up since (I know I'll get an itch to play it again soon, just because it's fun to jam out for no reason at all).Originally posted by: chrisg22
I play Guitar hero 2 on occasion, but I suck at hard difficulty so it gets me pretty frustrated.
It sounds as if you've hated console gaming for quite some time, and you never really gave yourself a chance at liking any games. Here's a tip to save yourself some time: the PS3 isn't going to give you anything over the 360, so save your time there. Good luck with the Wii, also, since you'll probably get bored of the game selection at this point in time pretty quickly.Originally posted by: shortylickens
Have rented about two dozen games so far and discovered one thing: I will find more fun and entertainment replaying old Windows games than playing anything the 360 has to offer.
Aside from Gears of War there was absolutely nothing original or interesting I could find.
Interestingly enough, Gears of War was also the most fun out of all the games I rented.
And Oblivion is rotten compared to the computer version, but since the Windows version was dumbed down to make it digestable for the console market it wasnt super hot either.
I think I'll just keep renting GOW long enough to beat it and then sell the system.
After that I'll go for the PS3.
Assuming that stinks I will try to find a Wii. As silly as those things might seem just about everyone I know says they're awesome.
EDIT:
If anyone has suggestions for good 360 games I will be more than happy to listen.

If it takes hundreds of hours to get into them, they really arent good games are they?

Well, even though I havent liked consoles since the Super NES, curiosity and boredome prompted me to get an Xbox 360 last week.
