I heard FarCry 2 was good. I did play Bioshock and loved it, almost beat it when I rented it. Waiting for the sequel. I'm gonna give Fallout 3 a shot, DMF has a copy I can borrow

All the old players have the same tells, but I hear that once you win the championship, you then have to defend it against all those guys again and all their tells have changed making it much harder.

yep.  The next time through, Glass Joe wears a helmet so you can't hit him in the head, and King Hippo duct tapes a cover to his stomach so you can't hit it directly (you have to attack the tape first)...

The new Punch Out on the Wii is fun as hell.  You can get through the 1st few guys with the Wii controller and nunchuks in your hands... but after that, you have to go ol' skool and turn it like the old nintendo controllers or you're gonna get your ass kicked.

- New Motion control thing with no controller. It's called Natal. It's creepy AI that recognizes your emotions and gives you things and takes things from you as well as have conversations. You can also play games and whatnot with it.

Last Splinter Cell blew, but this one looks really good. It's also much different.

the way it's set up right now, you have to log onto netflix from your pc and then add movies to your instant queue.  then go to the xbox to play them.  so i think what he means is that you can search for movies direct from the xbox now instead of going through your pc.

Netflix is increasing the amount of HD movies.  I like the Last FM feature too.
