Xbox 360 Heaven
Posted on June 20, 2006 - Filed Under Games
We returned our defective Xbox360 to Best Buy and got a new one. The new machine has been running like a pro for a week now so I am happy.
We have Fight Night Round 3, Ghost Recon and Top Spin 2 with a host of arcade games installed. I never thought I would like the arcade offerings from Xbox Live but have to admit that there are a few great games worth buying that we are addicted to. Bankshot Billards 2 and Hardwood Backgammon are the multiplayer faves in the house right now with lots of time invested in both games. I never thought I would fall for Hexic HD but that game is like crack to me and I almost hate myself for enjoying it so much. :)
Fight Night is great, love the bone crunching knockouts and career mode is pretty good but I would like to see them expand it. There is a lot that could be done with that mode and it will be interesting to see if they do that in a future release. Ghost Recon is solid and the best shooter I have played on a console. Top Spin 2 is a love/hate thing right now. Love the game but HATE the load times.
We are trying to ease back into summer mode now that school is out. It can be difficult working from home like I do and have the kids around but we make it work. If I can get away for a lunch break we play a game or two for 30 minutes and grab a snack before I get back to the grind. No complaints here.
