just 2 more levels to Dead to Rights on Xbox then its on to either Hitman 2 or Splinter Cell.

Any thoughts on which one is better? I played Hitman 2 and liked it a lot so I'm kinda leaning that way, but I've heard good things from the Splinter Cell corner as well.

yeah, I meant to buy. So you say splinter cell eh? Are the missions as open-ended as those in Hitman 2?

I just picked up Dungeon Siege, wow it's a cool game. That's mostly what i play now. I play the infiltration mod for Unreal 1 a lot, sometimes some UT. I tried UT2K3 and while the graphics are amazing i don't see much in the way of gameplay changes from UT. Deathmatch is sorta getting old for me. I also play a text based strategy game called Nukezone that is free on the net.

Splinter Cell is far more linear than Hitman. If you're looking for more freedom in your missions, than Hitman 2 would be your choice.

However, I assume you're talking about playing it on the XBOX instead of the PC, right? For some reason, I really didn't like the controls on Hitman on the XBOX. I felt myself longing for a keyboard and mouse, where even Splinter Cell didn't make me feel that way (at least, once I got used to it).

Just my personal opinion, of course, but one that you may want to consider.

Soul Calibur 2 (GCN). Mmm...this game is sweeeeeeet. Can't wait to try out the XBOX import soon to see how it compares.

Incredible Crisis (PSX). We NEED more of these quirky Japanese games over here. :p

Just finished Panzer Dragoon Orta (XBOX), although I probably ended up playing the port of the original Panzer Dragoon (an unlockable in the game) more than Orta.

What's Incredible Crisis and how is it?

Since my last post, I've finished DMC and almost done with MvsC2. I have a couple of unlockables left to unlock.

Its...uh...odd. Its one of thoe games that I'm shocked that it was ever ported over to the US (same for games like Mad Maestro and Mister Mosquito). They're usually quirky games, and in this case, its basically a ton of little mini-games to go along with a cookoo plot (one part has you doing everything from dancing in the office, to escaping a giant boulder (Indy style) to "pleasuring" a woman on a ferris wheel, etc). Its...probably not most people's cup of tea, but its something to fill in the gaps between bigger games I have in progress.
