I guess it's a pretty good problem to have.  :)  But I really want to pick up Darksiders, MW2, Assassin's Creed II, Bioshock 2, Mass Effect 2, and Fallout 3: GotY.

Ghostbusters is my most recent conquest.  I actually started designing a Ghostbusters TC for Quake II 15 years ago- so I think I was the prime target for a game like this.  I thought it was pretty fun- except that I played it on the hardest setting and found it to be EXTREMELY frustrating in 3 or 4 places.  I don't use terms like "throw my controller at the screen" lightly... but I got pretty close.  I won't claim it was a great game, but I found it to be good enough.

I played Butcher Bay once before on oXbox, but wanted to play it again since I have it on 360.  It's also very punishing on hard.  I'm playing it on easy now and it's still a bit of a challenge.  I guess I just don't like sneaking games that much.

Grrr! I've been stalled on Gears2 for about 6 months.  My co-op buddy has been too responsible recently to find time to play!
