someone suggested FIFA and i have to second that. once you get the cross and header down, its just so cool. its a shame you dont like shooters though. left 4 dead is supposedly coming out for ps3 eventually.
how do you differentiate between shooters and action games?
ghostbusters was actually pretty good too. maybe not $60 good. but if you liked the movies itd be a good rental.
prototype was pretty badass. and infamous was pretty cool too.
there were some good racing games that came out recently too. pure was a quad racer, and fuel had dirtbikes, quads, and dune buggies in it. and fuel was free roam.
if all else fails, you could always give harry potter a try. pahahaha.

We have similar tastes in games. I’m also not much of a shooter fan, which is a pity because so many games are 1st and 3rd person shooters, but ‘Resident Evil 5’ was quite entertaining. Give it a rent.
Have you tried ‘Fight Night: Round 4’ yet? How does it compare to FNR3?
And I have to agree with a previous poster, hockey games (like ‘NHL 09’) are a blast even if you are not a hockey fan. They are fast paced and great for trash-talking with your friends: if you’re into that sort of thing!

The average age of video game players today is 30+ years old. Considering how games have advanced into complete entertainment “events” and not just absent minded repetitive action like PONG, why would a girl today be surprised that her man plays video games?
In fact, if seeing that you play video games by itself is enough to cause your girl to lose respect for you, then you clearly don’t have much else going for you.
You should try infamous. It is a bit like GTA in the fact you can walk around and destroy or kill whatever you want. Graphics are good and game play is smooth.

Question on the PS3 (and XBox, and other similar).
I’ve been a PC gamer forever, and still active in a clan that’s been together going on about 8 years now (incidentally, the average age of the clan is mid-40’s and includes 2 police officers and an airline pilot)
Is there a pretty good online community with the game boxes? How do you interact vocally with others or type messages real time?
God of War 3 is coming out- only played the first one and fuck that game was fun played like 8 hours straight

Dante’s Inferno comes out Q1 2010 as well, gameplay looks kind of like GoW but from everything I’ve seen so far it really plays up the darkness of hell and tries to keep to the poem’s theme.
I usually hate when games mimic eachother but when they are actually good games I just can’t really complain about it, fun is fun =/
