I'm currently playing and loving Bioshock, but I'm playing NCAA Football 08 equally often...

I haven't seen any faceplates I'd want on my machine before this--and after playing the demo, I want it a little more. It would be nice if this game ends up being great AND a big-seller, so it doesn't get lumped in with Psychonauts and BG&E in every future article about great but unseen games...

I played this for about an hour last night, and while it didn't make me physically sick, I bored me nearly to death. I played the XBLA version of Doom a ton, but the weapons in Marathon were wimpy and I derived little satisfaction from using them. I wonder if a lot of the hype surrounding this game is because Mac users had nothing else to play in the mid-90's. I'm sure it was fun when it was fresh, but better than Doom? No way.

The worst effects I've ever seen are on the space monkey-thing in Lost in Space. It's a horrible movie anyway, but...wow.

CGI is really killing summer blockbusters for me--everything looks cool, but none of it looks even remotely real. It would be nice to see a guy in a rubber suit doing actual stunts at least once.

I went to see The Punisher since it was filmed in and around Tampa, where I live. Sadly, this was the only noteworthy part of the whole movie for me--this was easily one of the worst movies I've ever seen, and one of my 15 or so "1's" on IMDB, out of nearly 1100 votes. I think Ray Stevenson is a great casting choice for the character, but why in the hell will there be a sequel?

I bought NCAA on Tuesday, and I'm enjoying it a lot so far. I think the college game is more enjoyable than the NFL, and recruiting is far more fun than free agency for me.

I preferred the 2K series to Madden, but I can't get into a non-licensed sports game for some reason, it just seems cheesy and low-budget. I'm glad they're back in the game, but the reviews I've seen aren't making me rush out the store...

"Margot TENENBAUM?!"

Another vote here for BK--he's terrific.
