NHL 09 (PS3)
This game is a lot of fun. One of my favorite modes is playing in the AHL -- Manchester (NH) vs Portland (ME)....the controls are a little different but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty fun. I'm really enjoying myself with this game. I haven't put in NHL2K9 yet for the Wii..
In other news, although I bought Pure and Star Wars Wii, I'm too tired and just ran out of time. I can't believe it's almost midnight and it's only freaking Wednesday.
One last thing: I did treat myself to the brand new Archos 5 120GB media player which is now in stock at Amazon. I'm really excited to try this "internet media tablet" out..

I’ll be renting Pure. I really liked what I played of the demo.
I picked up Star Wars PS3 today at Toysrus, with the $20 giftcard. The games good but not great. The sound design and story are the most entertaining aspects of the game. While the controls are clunky.

The new Archos 5? Nice. You must be doing pretty well for yourself!

Let us know how that goes, I’m interested as well.

I also picked up The Force Unleashed for the PS3. I have played through the 1st level (playing as Vader all souped-up was fun) and played a little bit of the 2nd level (the level from the demo).
Don’t have enough play time to judge the game, but I am enjoying it so far. A few nitpicks here and there which I am sure will grow as I progress through the game, but so far it is what I expected, a big playground to use your force powers.
As a side note, I can’t stop playing Castle Crashers! I am hooked for some reason. I even managed to get my girlfriend hooked on it too. We’ve been playing co-op practically everyday.
