Video Game Round Up

My hand is forever cramping. Why? I'll tell you why:

XBOX360

Blazing Angels - WWII air combat in hi-def splendor. Plays like what you'd expect. Looks like nothing you've ever seen before. Lots of great unlockables in single player mode and online multi-player dogfights are way too fun to be had in the basement. I should start charging admission.

Kameo - Still the best action game graphics ever. I'm close to beating this one and that will make me sad, but what a great game! Drooling at the water affects alone is worth the 50 bucks.

Burnout Revenge - This could be the best online 360 game so far. This will be the one that hospitalizes me for a heart attack and hand cramps. It's impossible to relax and play this game at the same time.

Fight Night 3 - I'm typically not a sports game fan, but this one is just plain fun. The character customization is so good, my carreer mode player looks exactly like me! Play it online and get stomped by the pros. Very challenging!

XBOX

Yager - Space shooter from a few years back. Decent graphics, average gameplay.

Dragon's Lair 3D - Awesome game! A modern twist to the old classic (see post below). Great music, traps and puzzles too. Graphics are terrific and hi-def conversion is extremely nice for the original Xbox.

Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogie's Revenge - OK I have to admit...I'm only playing this because I loved the movie. The boss fights are all musicals and sound exactly like the tunes from the film. This game is definately different.

PSP
The Con - Unique blend of gambling and fighting, throwing punches, betting against yourself and throwing the fight to win big. If you know anyone with a PSP, I recommend this one in head-to-head mode.

Hot Shots Golf - Nothing spectacular or different about this game. I just really like it.

PC
Dungeons & Dragons Online - Already reviewed this one. I have a level 5 Wizard, a level 3 barbarian, a level 2 rogue and a level 1 cleric. Despite all the message board gripes about the lack of content, I seem to have no problems finding plenty to do. I like the mature player base most of all.
