RS:V, NHL07, NCAA07, Madden07 and just got TW.

Finding someone who doesn't glitch or quit early when they're down in the sports games is a PITA, though.

If I didnt have to pay a monthly fee to play 360 online. I would have ouned one long ago. Thats why I got my PS3. Graghicly, there almost the same. I just dont want to dish out more money just to play online...

Amen to that. I gave up playing Madden online in 04. Gave up looking for a good player to play against. Most were quitters or used
Vic roll right every play.

Chin Sack I know I played many PS2 games online. Even ones made by the same company, like EA had different online menus and interface. I hated that. I would think XBox live (never played on it) makes any game easy to get going online.

Differ UIs dont bother me. Its when I just want to get online, enjoy a game or two. Theone thing I have had a prob with was well...EA. I used to buy there NASCAR games every time it came out. But the past 3 they made where less then impressive. Mainly with the online play.

I am mainly waiting for next yere or so for the next TOCA game. I will prolly rent the next NASCAR for the PS3. Unless it REALLY impresses me. I will prolly just stickto the F1 game thats coming to the PS3, an TOCA 4 if it comes out.

If you have a 360, you need to own NHL '07 and Gears of War. Nothing beats those two.

You know, after all the time playing FPS using keyboard and mouse, I thought it would be hard to use the controller, but after playing a bit of CoD3 and RS:V, I'm really getting the hang of it. And the peek function in RS:V is really outstanding (and might be hard to do with a keyboard)....

Nah, there should be more than one USB port - check the bottom (if vertically stored) or far right (if horizontally stored) flap...there should be two under there and an additional USB port on the back (although I'm using that one for the wireless network connector). So that's three total...

You'd lose a lot of functionality trying to do the mouse with one hand and the controller with the other in RS:V. You'll want the four buttons to manipulate your weapons and gear, plus at least one of the triggers to duck... you'll probably want to use the right side of the controller which means using the mouse on the left. Plus you'll need to rest the mouse on something, which means holding the controller could be awkward. It doesn't take long to adjust...

My XBox360 name is Cleatus703, so search and add if you want to shoot up Vegas sometime.
