I played The Sims 2 recently - for the first time - my brother has a PS2.  I have a PS1.  I tried GTA-San Andreas but it made me sick as in motion sickness.  I love the original GTA.  I was wondering if you all knew of any games similar to SIMS besides Bustin Out...I don't like that one so much.  I like girly games lol.  Any suggestions?

I just sent back Shadow of the Colossus. The graphics are terrible. I was surprised after hearing people say it was great.

How about The Katamari games or the Dance Dance Revolution series. You will need a dance pad for DDR they cost about $20

That sounds like it could be fun exercise too...lol.  I will have to check that out.  Thank you Homer!

btw that GUN game was only 29.99 brand new at EB....but that was for a gamecube system...dunno price for other systems

Mostly rumors so far. I know they would like to charge much more than Xbox but probably aren't likely. In general it's my understanding they don't really make much money from console sales. They'll probably have tiered pricing like the Xbox. Depending on what you want I would think between $300-$500

DDR has a workout mode where it tells you how many calories you have burned etc. O0

Awesome - now I have to go see about that tomorrow.  I rented that Sims Bustin Out and I hate it, never again

I can get GUN for $17 for PS2 if I choose to buy it. I'll stick to renting this one though. ;)

They can't afford to charge that. They are already behind the 8 ball with all the delays. A price tag like that would drive many customers to the dark side as I call it. LOL :))

[hades]

well either to the darkside or calling you up hitting you up for a loan  >:D :))

yeah you can get thru it fast it took my hubby a little over a week but he didnt play it non stop....hes also NOT real fast with games....he says its cause hes old(45).....lol....but he will play it again on a harder mode he liked it that much.....i was surprised i didnt even have to look up cheats for him on that game

[Kelly]

maybe they are going to charge a lot for the ps3 so people can only buy one system and not hog them all up just to sell on ebay like the xbox360's....that was just not right how people were getting 1,000 to 2,000 for them....sickening...i mean i believe in capitalism but comon thats just unfair....i have a seven year old nefew who wanted one so bad for xmas and his mom n dad just couldn't do it...poor kid!!!

My games take a while to finish sometimes. I'm hooked on RPG games but I can generally finish one in less than a week. ;)
