My New Video Games

So the good folks at Circuit City did me a solid last week and discounted several games for the PSP and the Xbox 360 down to 13 bucks a piece. So what did I get, you may ask. Well I got 2 new games for my 360 and 2 for my PSP.

For the Xbox I picked up Viva Pinata as well as Project Gotham Racing 3. While for the PSP I got Tiger Woods 06 and Mortal Kombat: Unchained. These are some quality games people!! Well I haven't tried Viva Pinata yet (manda made me buy it).

I am not much of a "realistic" racing game kinda guy. I dont play Midnight Club, or Gran Turismo. When it comes to racing give me Wipeout, Mario Kart, or F-Zero. However I found my self seriously enjoying PGR3. I guess you don't get game of the year for nothing (Game Of The Year 05). The controls are simple and the graphics look great even on Non-HD tvs (come on Manda time to upgrade hahahaha). I haven't played much of it but I think i am going to have a lot of fun with this game. I have yet to play Viva Pinata yet but I have heard a little about it and it is supposed to be as addictive as Katamari was. I still play Katamari for at least an hour every week.

The PSP games I bought are great! I hadn't picked up my PSP for quite some time and these 2 titles were enough to bring it out of retirement. If you haven't played a Tiger Woods game then you probably don't think they are much of anything. Trust me though, Tiger Woods games are some of the most relaxing and fun games you will play. To top it off you can probably stop by your nearest used video game store and get a copy of one of them for 5 bucks. Mortal Kombat: Unchained is the portable version of Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance but it has 4 extra characters in it. If you are a fan of Deadly Alliance then you should get this. This is the best portable Mortal Kombat game I have ever played, though that's not saying much when you look at the other portable versions of this franchise. I still feel that all of my purchases were great values and encourage others to play these games. Except Viva Pinata, i haven't played it. It better be good Amanda.
