Am I the only one who feels NFSU got old too fast? I started playing it and within a week began getting tired of the game. It's awesome, but it offeres no real excitement beyond the first ten to twenty hours...in my opinion. Am I the only one that feels that way? I think it may be the lack of realism. I think I'm more suited to realistic racing games; however, I played nfshp2 for months.

btw, the blur effects in nfsu have to be on of the best features I've seen in gaming this past year.

only thing I have to complain about NFSU is how all the "tracks" are variations of the same city...... other than that, I still only have a turbo miata (its the best overall right now) - stage 2 naws, stage 2 turbo, 19"s..... yeah it's blingin' and does about 170 - and according to the points scale I'm about halfway through the game (55/111) - it leaves me looking forward to getting the RX-7, Supra, and Skyline.....

And in terms of the realism, I have to say NFSU is among the better such games I have played - "such games" meaning games of the arcade-street-racing type - in fact I have to say its the best. By comparison, Tokyo Extreme Zero is the worst. I like how in NFSU sometimes an opponent may sideswipe me so hard that I get into a drift, and I'm able to control it and recover from it - that is saying a lot to me - most games such as this, if that happens, you're done, you wipe out, and if you try to recover, you usually just become more out of control. So I gotta say I like that about NFSU. Also I am racing on the PC version with Logitech MOMO Force wheel, for me that has a lot to do with the whole experience - I tried the game on my friend's XBOX using the :ghey: Xbox controller and I couldn't play it for too long.

This wheel is just bad ass I gotta admit, you can just plug it straight into the PS2's USB port and use it with GT3...... the feel is amazing, make sure to set steering to "professional" in GT3, though.

Star Wars: Knights of Old Repblic the PC version which is way better than XBOX version... well, besides all the annoying bugs which freezes the game pretty often, the game really rocks, exellent story line, the most expansive dialogue trees, the most interesting side quests.

really widh BioWare can patch up the game, then I will spend day and night playing the game over and over.

That momo wheel looks cool.

They need to make a gaming wheel with a 5-6spd shifter AND a ebrake! thatd be cool.

this is pretty cool, not sure how well it actually works though, compared to the Logitech:

http://www.act-labs.com/Products/racingcombo.htm

it actually has a gated shifter and clutch pedal.

i played the demo for jedi knight academy......eh....didn't like Outcast that much either....too arcadey....makes me dizzy....and there are too many Force powers to control...by the time you cycle to the one you want to use...you're already sliced up into little pieces

i do like how you start off with a light saber right off the bat and you can choose the style of blade (single, double staff, 2 sabers)

Question What game(s) are you playing right now...?

List it!

Currently juggling 3...but, nothing hard-core in terms of time (I'd be in the GF's doghouse instantly if I were gaming too much ):

- PSP: Capcom Puzzle World (particularly Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo)
- PS2: Castlevania: Curse of Darkness (the most time spent on gaming of the 3)
- PS3: Resistance: Fall of Man (the least right now since FPS on consoles own me)

After Castlevania, I'm thinking of replaying God of War again...anyhoo, just to tide me over until the PS3 actually gets some games I'm interested in.

I recently had to replace my PS3 for a new one so all of my saved games are gone. Very disheartening as I had beaten Resistance:FOM on regular, hard, and half way through super human. About halfway for Call of duty 3 on hard, Had TW07 golfer to 85%+ A Boxer on Fightnight about a fight away from Legendary, and well Tony Hawk wasnt really getting played much but I think I was at the 150 spot. Now I have to start all over. Multiplayer is a bit more fun so I'll stick with that for a while till I get motivated enough to start single players again.

I downloaded the new Gran Turismo 1.1 update and as it restarted it went black screen on me. I reset video settings and all that and still nothing. Ended up calling sony, they had me reset video one more time and was like ok, you can send it back. I had the best buy replacement plan so it was pretty painless. And I got to upgrade to the 60gig for an extra 100 bucks so all in all not horribly bad but still a pain in th arse.
