city of heroes is generally cool, i like guild wars, its kinda the same kind of gameplay, but more in depth (i screwed with the alpha tech demo, its not out yet... its made by some ex-blizzard employees... those warcraft/starcraft/diablo guys), so when it comes out, i'll be into that. Meanwhile i've been playing with UT2004 (great game, if you have xbox, unreal championship 2, and mech assault2/halo2 when they come out), also played around with silent storm 2, KOTOR etc and liked those...
PS, haven't played much madden, 2k4's redskins team sucked, I will be buyying 2005 for sure though
Lavar may even have his name on his jersey...
