No, I haven't. I've got all those games emulated on the arcade and have an adapter to use the real intellivision gamepad so I just use that when I want to check out an Intellivision game. The only problem is I don't have any of the overlays but the regular old games that don't use all the different numbers work fine

Hey FG, did you see the South Park episode where the kids were playing the new Tiger Woods golf where Tiger and his wife beat the crap out of each other? Do you still play that game a lot?

I can confirm that the getting beat up by his wife mode is NOT in the final game. I haven't played it too much lately but I still throw it in every so often. I've got a gold trophy to eventually get to where I hold down the worlds #1 ranking for 281 weeks surpassing Tiger, so that will keep me playing for a while.
PS+ released some free games yesterday: Bomberman Ultra, Medevil (PS1) and a couple of minis.
I also re-bought Burnout Paradise from the PSN store last night. They were selling it for $7.99 packaged with some of its DLC. At that price I couldn't pass it up. We should try their online mode out (assuming that the servers are still working).
I'm still digging the U3 beta. They added a couple of new modes to it yesterday.

I'd be down with some online Burnout. I don't think I ever tried any online play. Guess I'll DL those freebies, although my PS+ subscription is probably getting pretty close to expiring.
I haven't been gaming too much the last couple of weeks and most of that has been on the arcade rather than the consoles. I started playing Orange Box but it started pretty slow so it hasn't grabbed me yet. Unfortunately most games start out that way for me even if I end up loving them at the end.

Isn't orange box made up of 4 or 5 games? I know Portal is one of them. You should check that out since it's such a revered title.

Yeah - I was referring to Half-Life 2 specifically on the slow start. I did play a little portal but there isn't really much story to it, it is just a giant puzzle game. Unique, but again, didn't blow me away. I'll go back to it though.
It's been a while since I've played a game that I REALLY enjoyed. I'm ready to play the new Batman. I think I'm actually anticipating that one even slightly more than the new Uncharted.

I saw that Best Buy is selling Fallout New Vegas for $9.99. I don't think it's going to knock your socks off but the price is right.
Let me know if you want to borrow any of my games while you wait for Batman.

oh crap! Somehow I missed your post about New Vegas until today or I would have definitely sprung for New Vegas for only $10. That's dirt cheap for a retail game like that. Wonder if they are still selling it...
I enjoyed the demo for InFamous 2 but it didn't blow me away either so I never did buy it for $45 online. I'll probably just wait on it I guess. Nothing new out there really exciting me at the moment. Guess I'll just knock some oldies off my list and mess around with Stardust. You been trying to crack my high score any yet?

Some guy in town is selling a working Narc for $175. I have no business getting it and probably won't but I'm tempted.

I've upped my personal best on Stardust but I'm still 4 mill short of your score.

By the way, how many levels did you make it through to get to 6 mill?
The farthest I've gotten is the 1st planet boss fight. I was mad because yesterday I made it to that fight with 3 lives and managed to get killed.

I think I might be at 8 mil now but I don't remember exactly. I believe I got to the 3rd planet/level to get that score. You get a trophy as you complete each level as well as miscellaneous stuff - I got one by chance when I hit the turbo boost and happened to run into 5 bonus point things. The first planet is rocks, the second one is primarily gold with some others mixed and the 3rd one has a lot of ice.
I always forget to hit that turbo boost - I discovered that you are apparently invincible when you shoot it off and can actually smash through asteroids like that.
