What are your favorite games? I ask because within the next two months there will be a HUGE influx of games onto the market for the Christmas rush..

Moddies, please don't move this thread to the Online games sextion, as I would rather there be a large cross-section of responses, and only about 100 of the registered users are gamers of which about 3 visit that section for the gaming content

ALso, if you have a pic of your kill-all setup, post a pic

My favorite games:

PS2
-Gran Turismo 3
-Devil May Cry
-Robotech: Battlecry

XBOX (sold )
-RalliSport Challenge

Schat: (hehe I like the short form of da name )

Robotech is one thing, if anything:

FRICKIN HARD

I mean, I have been playing for about 20 hours, and about once an hour I feel like hurling my controller through my TV... it just gets so frustrating... but it is DAMNED good for a Robotech game

I had to sell it because my college books were $200 more than I expected (hides) But I WILL have an XBOX again.

Don't worry, my heavenly high friend, I graduate with full credits after my finals this semester, I get a low-level REAL job (ie desk-n-keyboard jockey) and then I can earn some serious $, get an XBOX and be joyous again

Waiting for another JSRF for Xbox. And the new starcraft title Ghost, that looks like Halo on stereroids with a hefty metal gear solid influence.

I might pick up timesplitters but anybody want to speak up on the single person play, I'm not a big multiplayer guy.

Still don't have a PS2, and the FF titles have gone down hill lately in my opinion so I don't think that i will be picking on up sometime soon.

My big disapointment is Blink's it looked steller but it looks like the difficulty is so far up there that it is next to impossible to get through even the first half of it, even for a experianced platform gamer.

Try Burnout 2 if you'd like some killa collision physics and some saaaweeeet arcade fun.

And...I...believe...I get my GTA:Vice City tomorrow at TRU!

Timesplitters 2 is seriously going to rock big time. If you haven't played the demo, you really missed out (until you buy the full game of course ) It won't support online play, so I think you can be confident that the single player gameplay will be very good. It's so strange, I liked Red Faction better than Timesplitters, but Timesplitters 2 Demo was much better than the original, while Red Faction 2 demo was much WORSE than the original. Oh well
