Xbox 360 Pro Console 20GB [Old Version], was released on 2005-11-15 from Microsoft. The list price is around US$259.99.
I originaly bought the 360 when it first came out and like many other people out their, I had issues and returned it and got a new one. Then about 3 days later the 360 gave me more problems. I was very upset and took the 360 back with full refund saying I will just wait for the PS3. But for those 3 days of playing the 360, I did think the system itself was awsome, the exprience I had with Xbox Live was amazing. So about 6 months later my xbox was just not cutting it and I felt maybe the 360 issues would be fixed so I went and purched the 360 agian, because I couldnt wait for the PS3. So far I still have that same 360 and have had no issues what so ever. I also purchased the PS3 and the Wii. I enjoy all the systems and out of all three I prefer the 360 the most. Between the 360 and ps3 the graphics are about the same. But I still think the xbox live blows away the PS3 Network, its deffinetly the best of online gaming. I also had to deal with customer support (CS) alot in the beggining and consider the CS to b...

Karaoke Revolution 3 with Microphone, was released on 2004-11-11 from D&H Distributing. The list price is around US$59.99.
At first i saw the PS2 only for my little brother's action games, and I thought it was unfair that only he would have games, but when we got the Karaoke Revolution 3, we (my sister, my parents and me) felt that we could also use it too. I like it a lot because it has songs i love, it has classicals, and it has songs i've never heard. The best part is hearing everyone try to reach the tones and failing, it is something you can do with your family and friends because there is music for all ages and all genders. I LOVED IT; AND SO DID MY FAMILY

Swing Away Golf, was released on 2007-05-18 from Electronic Arts. The list price is around US$29.99.
I have enjoyed this game. I received it as a gift and have been playing it ever since. I usually get bored with these golf games, but the characters and caddies make this more interesting to play.

Dukes of Hazzard: Return of the General Lee, was released on 2004-09-28 from UBI Soft. The list price is around US$19.99.
The Game was provided in NTSC format and not in PAL format. In this way the game does not work in Italy ( and in Europe). Bad purchase! Bad service!

Dragonball Z Budokai Tenkaichi, was released on 2006-09-19 from Atari Inc., Usually ships in 24 hours. The list price is around US$19.99. (*The prices are subject to change) Street price is around $13.96.
Dragon Ball Z has been known for its 2d-dimmension gameplay but now Tenkaichi takes it to 3-d, the gameplay great alot of character. I Loved this game DBZ got it right this time although Budukia 3 was good to. No problems her except the A.I is a bit to strong and there attacks do more damage and take up less energy. But once you master this game its game you can keep playing over and over again.

Capcom Classics Collection, was released on 2006-08-07 from Capcom, Usually ships in 24 hours. The list price is around US$19.99. (*The prices are subject to change) Street price is around $16.66.
I know this collection is a bargain price, but there is just one major problem. That is the difficulty. The games are by nature difficult, but you pretty much have endless continues. It's kind of like Mario Brothers in that once you used the warp zones and stepped on the turtles you could easily beat the game. The only difference here is you can continue anywhere and you are not running out of quarters.
Another thing that is missing is strategy. These are all action games that the enemies and obstacles are in a pattern. Once you very tediously mastered the pattern you win. But you will not have to master the pattern because you can just continue.
The only games that are worth playing are the Street Fighter series. At least there is strategy behind your moves and combos. And though you have endless continues you still have to win the fight.
I recommend you don't buy this series and leave retro games to roms. I'm an older gamer and while I grew up playing games like this series...

Armored Core: Nine Breaker (Playstation 2), was released on 2005-09-15 from Agetec. The list price is around US$39.99.
Armored core: Nine breaker is the new sequel to every game in the series. It's stunning graphics put you on the edge of the seat experience. plus, you can also take part in either training, where you earn medals (gold, silver or bronze) and become a record breaker, or you can take part in arena battles and customise your AC to unleash maximum destruction to become the nine breaker! Creating an emblem is also available, where you can make a picture for your AC! Unleash maximum mayhem with Nine Breaker! Apart from the graphics, the sound is around 6/10ish, so not very good on that. But you can also unlock goodies from the old armored core, Nexus. Note: If you haven't played nexus, you can't get the parts easily. you may have to earn points and medals (eg. MAYFLY head: 150 gold ranks) This is one of the best games to get!

Tetris Worlds, was released on 2002-03-20 from THQ. The list price is around US$14.99.
I bought it so my brother and I could play tetris against eachother. I am not sure if the game does not allow for two players, but it was so difficult to understand I gave up on it. Played it maybe twice and forgot about it.

WWE Smackdown! Shut Your Mouth, was released on 2002-11-11 from THQ. The list price is around US$29.99.
THE SHORT: The best roster of the Smackdown series and, more importantly, the deepest story mode. High replay value, good create-a-superstar mode, and lots of unlockables. The best overall entry in the series; the only problem is that it doesn't have some of the upgrades that later editions of the game have.
THE LONG: Fans of the PS2 Smackdown series have surely checked this one out already, which at the time of this writing is already several years old. This review then is meant for those who entered the series late or only recently and missed out on this title.
This game was released at a very transitional period in the WWE. A little more than a year prior the company acquired rival WCW and most of its stars, many of whom appeared here for the first time in a WWE title (such as Diamond Dallas Page, appearing here for the first, last, and only time). This is major, as it's the first Smackdown title to really have major WCW stars. Second, this game came out right after the time of the W...

ESPN NFL Football, was released on 2003-09-02 from \"Sega of America, Inc.\". The list price is around US$49.99.
The game has great positives, most of which you can find in these pages. Here are the negative aspects of the game - and assume everything else is OK. *Franchise mode: the trading is not very realistic (but better than 2K3), nor are the salary progressions. why doesn't another team ever make an offer to me aside from the trading block? i shouldn't be able to sign free agents and then just trade them away for draft picks to teams who didn't want the player in the first place. does anyone ever take a paycut when they don't even play? and why will free agents not even play instead of taking a reduced salary? no player ever demands to have their contract re-structured. and could the salary cap maybe increase after 5 years or so? and what's up with repetitive emails? when i win the super bowl the team owner sends me a 3 line email that basically says 'good job, you better win again next year or you are fired'. Depth is needed, but overall its much better than 2k3. *Statistics - holy dick butkus, bat...
