Dh had the good fortune to win an XBox 360 from a contest on thescore.com. He's like a little kid at this point, seriously downright giddy that this thing is coming in the mail. I've been hounding him about faxing a bunch of applications away regarding our student loans for like a freaking MONTH now, and of course he's just sat on all of it... but then the contact person at The Score told him he'd need to fax in some ID to verify his name and address and he was out the door to Kinko's in under 5 minutes.
As I've said in other threads, I'm really REALLY not fond of gaming systems. I wasted far too many hours and brain cells playing Ken Griffey Presents on SNES to pretend like this thing won't suck the motivation out of our house like a Dyson vacuum.
But I've decided to give it a trial run. If after two weeks we've managed to not neglect our children or lose our jobs, I figure it can stay.
My question is... what games do you and/or your dh like? I've been out of the gaming world for so long that I don't know what's hot right now. I'm really not into hockey games, or anything with first person shooting. I love baseball and will probably get MLB 2K9 for Christmas from dh. But I'd like to get something that is not sports related as well.
Any game reviews you can throw at me?
