Fatal Frame 2.

It's scarier than any of the RE's for me, and Silent Hill series.

Plus its got a great horror movie ending.  And if you go for the better ending its still horribly depressing (in a good way).  Though the xbox added ending seemed kinda sappy.

COD3 looks much better on Wii then PS2.  It can't touch 360/PS3, but for a non-HD game, and a somewhat sloppy port (it has some pretty rough edges) its still WAY graphically better than the PS2 version.

Right now I'd say PC gaming and Console gaming is pretty much on par.  For awhile pc's had the clear advantage, but they've lost alot of their audience over time because most PC gamers have to jump through hoops to keep up to date.

I think if pc games start becoming easier for casual players to keep up to date then we'll see the prime years of PC gaming return.  Until then it's just for PC nerds, and gamers w/ tons of disposable income.

Now is actually a much better time for casuals to go into PC gaming.  With Alienware and other high end computer companies being bought by corperations you start to see that technology cheaper and more casual friendly.  I mean, look at the Dell XPS (not to suddenly switch topics or anything).  They're decent rigs and come factory overclocked.  Most hermits will probally scoff at someone for paying the amounts you do for such a machine (and from Dell no less), but the fact is that for a not-too-overwhelming amount of money you can have  a great gaming PC for the next 3 or 4 years, maybe more if you learn enough to switch out parts.  And it will still be a normal computer too.

I used to work in Bestbuy, but it wasn't nearly as bad.  Electronics myself, though DVDs and music were the worst for me.  I swear, 90% of the people who couldn't find things simply because they didn't think about the alphabet.

Lady:  I'm looking for the new [insert generic pop band...horribly mispronounced] cd?

Me:  Ah, that'll be in the 'B' Section.  Right this way please.

Lady: Oh! Thank you, this place is so confusing; it's like there's some secret code to find things!

Me: Yeah...hehe...you got us...have a nice day.

Games got pretty bad though.  I was the guy everyone called over to explain how to hook up XBL from the box set.  It really isn't that hard.

By the end of this gen everyone will eventually own a PS3.

You can bash it all you want but when it gets all those great games we saw on the PS2 you will not be able to deny it.

Don't be so sure.  I had a GC for the longest time and only picked up a PS2 in the last year and half or so because I was so RPG starved (not that there wern't some other good games).  But I never felt a real strong urge to get an Xbox.  This gen, I have a Wii and love it and might eventually get a 360 because I'm impressed with it so far.  PS3 just dosn't deliever for me now.  That might change, but it dosn't look promising.

I was sad about Red Steel.  It isn't the broken mess that GS makes it out to be, but it's no more than a 7.0 really.

At least the MP is like an updated, motion sensor goldeneye.
