Fat Princess looks like a lot of fun. I'm waiting for it to go on sale.

To get an idea of what you like, what are some of your favorite games?

I'm all over the place with games...I usually don't get too into sports games but I've enjoyed FIFA and NHL games.

Here's a list of what I currently own:

PS3:
Fallout 3
GTA4
MGS4
Valkyria Chronicles
SOCOM: Confrontation
Ratchet & Clank
Final Fantasy VII (PSN) - currently playing

Wii:
Super Mario Galaxy
Zelda
Mario Kart
Wii Sports
Super Paper Mario - currently playing
Metroid
Guitar Hero

Given your tastes, I'm surprised you don't have little big planet.

Civilization revolution is a good idea if you're looking for a game to suck up your time.

Burnout Paradise is an excellent arcade racing game with a GTA open world style. The devs have done a great job creating free content via download.

You can pick all those games up for reasonable prices.

I'd recommend PunchOut! for the Wii, but not with the busted knee. Temptation is too powerful to get up and punch like mad. Call of Duty: World at War is great, especially if you have a good sized TV. Online play is contagious. I don't know how you feel about strategy games, but Fire Emblem is a good time. The Wii sports resort package should be awesome, but I haven't played it yet.

Resident Evil 4 and Okami are awesome as well.

I'm thinking about picking up Little King's Story. The reviews are excellent.

the batman game has piqued my interest. I think there's a demo, right? I may download that this weekend.

Gamefly is shipping me the first Madden game I've played in 3 or 4 years.

I am looking to get either NCAA 10 or Madden, does anyone here have both of them? IF so which one would you say is better.

I'm simming through my second season with the Rams now. I managed to get Matthew Stafford, Aaron Curry, Michael Crabtree, and the 6th and 8th overall picks in the '10 draft without giving up any of my young stars except Donnie Avery, but that took me to a whopping 5 wins in season 2.

I knew Fallout 3 was deep but man, this is just insane. I've completed all of the mini quests and the main quest and yet I went back and I'm now trying to get everything. Like literally everything. And I'm still working on making my way to level 30. But I see no end in sight as far as everything goes. I don't feel like I'll ever be truly done.
