Running video games (and consoles) thread

Hm, not a big fan of there being no contracts and thus no free agency, but everything else sounds good. I'm definitely in for the league and potentially intrigued by the idea of a fantasy draft, but it might be fun to just build a team (although no free agency makes it harder to that).

 

It is well worth the money. Not only do you get a different game experience from playing good/evil missions, but you also get different storyboards along the way. I'm just now getting off the first island on evil mode and I'm not bored, despite beating the game already on good. It's addicting!

That and your character changes looks if he's good (lighter character pixels and blue energy) or evil (darker character pixels and red energy).

I tell you, it's my early pick for Game of the Year!

 

Just did this mission on my second playing of the game. First time took me roughly 20 tries to get through, this time i got in on the first try.

 

Tiger 10 for the Wii is ridiculous. Disc golf is fun. The new motion sensor adds sooo much more.

 

I have the 360 version from Gamefly, but I'm thinking of buying the Wii one. I figure my father can actually play that one.

I also want to pick up Grand Slam Tennis which looks cool.

 

I got Tiger and Grand Slam on the weekend, and I am addicted to the tennis online play. So ridiculously fun.

I've been waiting for a game like this since the Wii came out. Wii Sports tennis just doesn't have the depth I was looking for.

There's a definite learning curve but I play a lot of tennis in real life.

My EA username is GomerStraw. Look me up once you get the game.

 

Does anyone play The Show online? Just wondering if anyone wants to set up a game sometime.

 

I bought Grand Slam on Sunday. My arm is KILLING ME from playing 2 hours a night. I FINALLY won my first grand slam match (Round of 32 at Wimbledon against a no-name). I'm only playing three set matches because it's almost real time. Takes forever, but really is a blast.

How do you like Tiger? I've really been into golf this summer and wonder how real Tiger is.

 

The game's been out a week and you got Tiger from Gamefly this quickly? Who do you know over there?

Sometimes it takes me a month or two to get a fairly new release, even with it at the top of my que.

 

Wait, they have disc golf?

 

Haven't tried it, but reviews suggest disc golf alone is worth buying the game for. You can play any one of the courses in disc mode, and yes, it's supposed to be just like throwing a frisbee.

Wii only.

 

Yeah. Disc golf is legit. Played my first round today at TPC Sawgrass and shot 2-under on 18. Got my first hole-in-one as well. Game. Is. Addicting.
