Even Bioshock didn't have a world this vivid. It feels like playing a Hollywood film. So far, this is definitely the best horror game I've ever played. But I've been more in the mood for light entertainment, so I spent more time with Saints Row 2 yesterday. That one's also a lot of fun. They've add several improvements, though the overall feel is about the same as the original. As much as I'm enjoying those two games, and I really am, I'm still wishing I had Fable 2 already.

My checking account sure is going to take a beating with all these games coming out! I'm relaly excited for dead space as i havent really played a new sci-fi horror game in ages... Fallout for its shear awesome ness has me giddier then a school girl and Fable II... i just cant wait although i couldnt bring myself to dredge through the pub games so my character will be piss poor! not worried though as i'm sure 90% of all characters will be too! o noes for the Wii!!! but i must say i’ve been contemplating the same thing… i hear there may be another supply shortage this year so depending on the economic crisis.. i may try and unload it then.

I'll be anxious to see what you think of your PS3 games. I wouldn't buy one now, but I'd like to have one in addition to my 360 in a couple years (when more quality games are out on the PS3). I would have cheated with a Pub Games character if I had caught onto it quick enough. Be sure to let me know what terrible thing Molyneux does to your character. :) Good choice.

Little big planet sounds like a hoot :) All my Wii games are currently borrowed out since I got my 360. I don't think my Wii has been on since. I should try selling it again. Now I’m truly jealous.
