... game - pitching, hitting, and fielding all are simple and feel relatively realistic. Plus there's just something fun and unique about playing with little leaguers. As far as I know this is the only little league game ever, although I could be wrong. Adding to the excitement, certain teams are significantly better than others. Want a challenge? Try winning a tournament with Italy, the worst team in the game. The replay value of LLB is unbelievable; I still play it to this day.

2. NHL 94 (Genesis, SNES) - I love modern NHL games as much as the next guy, but this game is the best ever. I still play it ALL THE TIME. The quality of play is amazing. Take away the easy wrap-around goals and the gameplay is amazingly real, especially considering how old this game is. Oh, and for the record, they are playing NHL 93 in Swingers but talking about the removal of fighting in NHL 94. Weird huh?

1. Tecmo Super Bowl (NES) - This game was far ahead of it's time - editable playbooks and season long stat tracking were so cool back then. The gameplay is far from realistic but amazingly equal. For that reason, the game is still popular and there are tons of people who still play in online leagues. The advent of emulators has allowed for the editing of rosters - I've played versions of the game with rosters from as recent as 2004. There are also versions with college rosters and USFL rosters. The weird little gameplay quirks like Bo Jackson being impossible to stop, fumbles bouncing all over the place, choosing defensive plays by guessing the offensive play, 100 yard passes, etc make the game MORE fun. This game will never, ever get old.

Microsoft X-Box 360 Troubleshooting Tips

...se Niko Intercooler online at Amazon.com.

Another way to keep your xBox 360 from overheating is to keep the game console in an open area. This will give the built-in ventilation system on the game console to work properly. Instead of putting game console in a tight corner underneath the table, keep it on top of the table or even on a shelf near a window.

Another neat trick I learned from other gamers is set the xBox 360 system in a horizontal position. Doing this will prevent the air vents at the bottom of the unit to be free from being blocked. And since most of the xBox 360 red light problems revolve around overheating, this little trick will expose the built-in air vents to function properly as they were meant to be at their peak.

Online Game Rentals - Part 2

... latter point. Just give me what you promised, and I'll keep paying. One of the big advantages that online game rental companies have, is that they are able to address such a large audience. In this case the entire United States. They're not like your corner store that may have a few thousand potential customers to draw from. The online guys have millions and millions. This kind of customer base allows them to have a bigger and more diverse inventory. At least in theory. And they do seem to. Some have over 5000 titles to choose from. One of the things that some customers like about the online rental services is the ch...more

The Battle of Poverty, the Environment, Motor Sports and Most of All Next-Gen Console Games

...be settled soon. Very soon. That is one of colossal scale in the gaming world; the arrival of the next-generation of consoles.

I support fully, Microsofts Xbox 360, just because what Sonys PlayStation is famous for is Japanese, role-playing games like Final Fantasy and Zelda, or just anything with a bit of Manga. And the Xbox is famous for its line up of top-notch titles backed up with superb graphics. Yet people consider Xbox as the under-dog, because when it was released it had nothing to fall back on, like the PS2 had its predecessor, the PS1.

Xboxs flagship series was the Halo games; because of its intriguing and immersing storyline with everything unfolding after each level, the characters in it all have their own problems to deal with, the inclusion of revolutionary traits like duel-wielding, a double story with you playing both the saviour and villain, and the Flood. The Flood may just appear like an enemy like any other but what The Flood does well is give the...more
