Re: Off Topic: Mount and Blade review on Gamespot
I play console games too-Playstation 2, mostly (great console, but I miss my Sega Genesis). My current favorites are 'Neo Contra', the 'GTA' series (yes, a very guilty pleasure-I prefer San Andreas, but my wife likes Vice City better), 'Soul Caliber 2, Giants: Citizen Kabuto, Fatal Frame 2, Shining Force EXA, and Monster Rancher 3 (Arguably, an even guiltier pleasure than GTA).
All extremely different from one another.
I own 'Barbarians', which is similar to Soul Caliber 2, 'Siren', which is arguably similar to 'Fatal Frame' (but not really, in terms of gameplay), and 'Scarface', which is *very* similar to GTA, in terms of gameplay, but reasonably different in story--because, as Sombre said, they're of similar genres.
We also have 'Silpheed', Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, the Sims, and all the 'Hitman' games (my wife likes those better than I do), and God of War. Each of them is a totally separate entity, and of any of the other games we own, none of them are much like God of War.
