Gears of War
One of the best games I've played in a long time. Gears of War may have the best graphics of any current game (there's some sweet looking stuff coming next year though) and the gameplay is great fun as well. Not a perfect game, but the audio, graphics, and gameplay add up to an excellent killing experience.

Dead Rising
An incredibly fun game... for a while. Dead Rising gets repetitive pretty quickly and the save system is flat out broken. I shouldn't have to completely start the game over because I spent an extra 5 minutes killing zombies, because whacking zombies is an absolute blast. The game could have been one of my all time favorites but the many bugs and other problems made me give up on the game long before I beat it.

MVP 2006 NCAA Baseball
Fun so far, the new load and fire
hitting system is going to take some getting used to but I like it. I've been playing the hitting minigame just to get better and even that's fun. I can't believe they used the rosters from last year, what a huge mistake. Imagine the uproar if they used the old rosters in their NCAA Football games, I don't know what they were thinking.

Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories
Graphics look exactly like the GTA series on the PS2. Remarkable for a handheld. Just started playing it tonight but so far it's pretty good.

The Warriors
I never saw the movie but the game got great reviews so I really wanted it. Fun so far, both GameSpot and IGN thought it was great. Old school beat 'em up that seems to get most things right.

NCAA Football 2006
I finally got my hands on the game. Of course it was at 7 a.m. on the day of it's scheduled relesae, but i wanted it early dangit! So far so bueno. I'm having trouble passing because I'm a little rusty, but it's definitely an improvement over last years game.

Star Wars Republic Commando
Somebody please remind that I can't play first-person shooters.
Rented it from Blockbuster using one of my 2 free coupons I get a month, pretty smart idea considering I get to keep it for almost 14 days thanks to no late fees. Something I'll do more often with the games I know I won't play a ton. I'm not too far, but other than the motion sickness it's a fun game.

MVP Baseball
Read my review!
A good game with a lot of flaws. MVP Baseball is fun but could have been much better with up-to-date rosters and online play. As it is now, it's an enjoyable baseball game that will get old fast unless you have friends to play with within your

Untold Legends: Brotherhood of the Blade
It has gotten pretty average reviews, but I'm enjoying it so far. It's not a deep game by any means, but it's a fun hack-and-slash with amazing graphics.

Tiger Woods PGA Tour
Tiger Woods looks as good on the PSP as it ever did on the Playstation 2. Really amazing. Berg and I just played a little head to head wirelessly and it was damn fun. Load times suck, but once you see the graphics and play the game you'll forget about them.
