on the shelves 08/26: Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 [metacrtic] – a tinkering update rather than any new big features. The big emphasis is on helping you improve by giving more feedback about your swing and post-round advice from Tiger’s swing coach. 08/26: Disgaea 3 Absence of Justice [metacrtic] – strategy RPG game that’s made [...]
on the shelves nothing! in the store Downloadable Games Ratchet & Clank Future: Quest for Booty [metacritic] {$15} – They missed on either the price or the length; it feels like a bonus level for Tools of Destruction, but maybe not enough to justify the price.

Timber Rattlers 8 – Cougars 7 (13) They were coming in with a five game winning streak, they came back from being down 4-0, being down 7-3 and it wasn’t until the 11th, with Larry Cobb was touching third and rushing for home while the centerfielder scooped the ball and threw towards home that I [...]
on the shelves 08/12: Madden NFL 09 and (20th Anniversary Edition) [metacritic] – I swear, it’s an actual improvement on the game.

So. I’m trying to convince myself that I’m doing this as people watching fun (standing in line, but ironically) and that Gamestop is so ridicously close, I might as well do it. Actually, Walmart is closer, but you’ve got to draw the line somewhere (and their cashers are so slow late at night.) I have [...]
on the shelves 08/07: Monster Madness: Grave Danger (metacritic) – port of the 360 title, with new features (and a new subtitle) but nothing that actually fixes some of the game playing problems of the first game, and the visuals are really bad. in the store Qore #3 ($3, or $25 for a yearly subscription) [...]
