PGR2

I picked up Project Gotham Racing 2 right before Thanksgiving, and have already blown many hours playing it. There's something really fun about racing cars at insane speeds. The online play is great. I still suck at it, though. Even the single player modes have an online component: after each race, it shows you where you rank compared to other players for that race (my average ranking is somewhere around 14000th place... good thing I don't do this for a living).

Not everyone likes the game, though. One Australian official wants to see the game banned because the game is "actually glorifying speed and power." It's good to see that idiocy around video games isn't entirely confined to the USA. Well, for some value of 'good'.

I want you, or more precisely your tanned god-like body. Call me, you know the number sweetie ;)
