Italians do it better

Gaming hasn't lost its touch! The DS is just getting started!

*cough.*



Hey, somebody had to do it. My bad if I was beaten to the punch.

Yes I can and its a great world!! HAHA ;-} 

I had a lot of fun with Crackdown and to be honest I didn't even notice any ads in it.

True, but that idea was ditched so early in the development process that it's really pointless to bring it up. By 97, Halo was a dedicated FPS.

I somewhat agree with the OP. There are not that many compelling games anymore. I remember when Zelda: OC came out I played it for hours, same with Mario 64, and Super Mario Kart for the SNES. Now I only play games for about 2 hours per week. And I have the most highest rated game this generation, Super Mario Galaxy. The games just doesn't seem new to me anymore.

It could be that games are just as good as they were back in the SNES and N64 days. Or it could be that I am just more mature and have other interests that overshadow gaming. I don't know.

I agree to some extant. There are still companies out there though such as Id Software, Valve, and Blizzard that still produce very high quality games. I've just been playing through Half-Life 2 for the first time this week and I definitely have to say its a great game.

Everyone should go pick up The Orange Box for PC because I'm pretty sure most of your computers can run it and come play with me in Team Fortress 2 online!

 Same Here. I haven't even opened some of my games yet. IDK what it is either. 

Yeah, look at Super Mario Galaxy. It's a game you can't refuse.

I agree games don't FEEL like they used to anymore - they don't instill that sense of wonder, joy, and excitement I'd experience when I'd wake up at 5 AM in the morning to play Kirby Super Star years and years ago (I still go back and play that game.....best Kirby game ever made IMO). One game that came really close was Super Mario Galaxy, that game is ridiculous.
