Yay! an update
Wow.. almost 3 weeks since the last update. Let's see, I finished Bioshock, got the good ending and almost cried (just don't tell my wife). I played Stuntman and hated it... run track, mess up, reset, rinse, repeat. It was just stupid and a knockoff bastard spawn of Burnout and PGR. Stranghold is playing pretty good but I got pretty drunk about 2 hours into it and got bored.
What has my full attention right now is Tiger Woods '08. This a perfect representation of that f*cking game called golf on a computer. the swing mechanics are flawless and will drive you crazy, the game is has a lot of replay-ability with 12 different game modes, a huge career mode and actually difficult achievements to earn. The game also paces well with how you're doing during a tournament... doing poorly and it'll reduce the field a bit, playing good and it throws putting robots at you. I've played non-stop for over a week now and my personal "dude" is only up to 32% of his potential... and I won my first tournament yesterday! I actually jumped up and down. It's frustrating and rewarding... just like golf. Thumbs up EA. Now if I could figure out how to play on-line with people developing their own players instead of picking Tiger Woods for every match...
Anyone else play? (Yes, I'll check the forums)
