Yeah, the SP is pretty boring after a while.

Single Player...

I'm gonna wait and beat Halo 2 before I trade it in. There's no way I should get so little play out of fourty-five bucks.

I only played RE4 for about an hour, but it's really pretty sweet (and this coming from someone who didn't like the previous Resident Evil GC games). The camera and controls are tight as hell! Why didn't they do this earlier?

If you buy RE4, go to GameStop. 10 bucks more gets you a Halo2ish tin can holder, a booklet containing the RE storyline from all games, a "Film cel" of somesuch (it's a game, not a movie though), and some ads. "Swweet."-Cartman

Cool.

Plus, my dad paid me back some money he owed me, so now I have enough to get both RE4 and Minish Cap.

So I finally played FSA for the first time last night. Being a big ALttP fan, I like this one a lot, and I liked the price even better; I got it in a 3 pack with Soul Calibur II and Super Mario Sunshine for $50 Cdn. Not bad, when you consider that FSA typically goes for $50-60 Cdn alone.

The Punisher game is also on my list:

Gameplay(taken from official site):

The Game

Frank Castle’s life changed the day his family was murdered. A part of his soul died, too. What was left dedicated the rest of his life to revenge upon the criminal scum of the world. He was reborn as…The Punisher!

Is he a hero? An obsessive madman? His methods are harsh and brutal, striking fear into the darkest hearts of the criminal underworld as he delivers vigilante justice to every thug he can lay his hands on.

The Punisher walks through a world we all know, a world darkened by war, crime, cruelty, and injustice. He has no superpowers – only his fierce intelligence, years of combat experience, and an iron determination to avenge the wronged. Where justice ends, Punishment begins!

Now you can get inside the head of the Punisher

*Become The Punisher, the Marvel vigilante and ultimate anti-hero, in a non-stop action experience.

*Embrace the Punisher’s tactics by interrogating criminals! Will you break them and gain information?

*Interactive Environments! Unique ‘hotspots’ create dozens of environment-specific kills and interrogations that create interactive, cinematic ‘Punisher Moments’!

*Over 101 unique deaths await those that stand in the Punisher’s way.

*Punisher Armory! Use an upgradeable assortment of guns and weapons to wage an onslaught of two-fisted firepower.

*Original story from acclaimed Punisher writers Garth Ennis and Jimmy Palmiotti

*‘Best of Everything Punisher’ combines over 30 years of Punisher history, including his greatest enemies and allies!


Interrogation

"The Punisher is an expert on "motivating" criminals to get them to tell him the info he needs to know.

When the lives of innocent victims are on the line, the ends justify the means. Often, the Punisher resorts to interrogation to force others to divulge information.

There are two types of interrogation: General and Environmental.

General Interrogations:
The Punisher can perform four general interrogations on captured thugs anywhere in the level: Choke, Face Smashing, Punch, and Gun Tension. And for clarification, Gun Tension is a game of Russian Roulette that the criminal has a 100% chance of losing...

Environmental Interrogations:
In addition to the general interrogations, the Punisher utilizes environmental hazards found in the game. Everyday objects become instruments of fear in the able hands of the Punisher. Street curbs, buzz saws, car doors, fireplaces, woodchippers, and many, many more objects suddenly become ...multifunctional. Your only limit is your imagination."

Another game that I had my [cleverpun]crosshairs[/cleverpun] on was Ace Combat 5: The Unsung war that went forgotten in the madness of the holiday rush:

I think I might wait until it drops down in price a bit though.
