I'm looking for a good mainstream, solid title.. something fun that is not "niche" appeal.

There are a few titles that fit that..

Madden
Asphalt GT
RR
Spiderman
Madden
TigerWoods
Urbz


Why should I pick up any one of these? I'd like to get one tonight.

Urbz it a tough one. It's about a niche a mainstream title can get. And to tell the truth, it's only from a series that is mainstream on the PC. I don't think it quite caught the mainstream aspect, on the consoles. Tiger woods would be a good mainstream pick, but it takes a little getting used to.

Asphalt GT is a pretty nifty mainstream title. It's about as close to a mini-version of Burnout as you can get. Plenty of boost potential, and bonuses for crashing up stuff. It has a more tried-n-true arcade driving feel than Ridge Racer (which has, of course, a powerslide feel and model that only Ridge Racer has).

Ridge Racer works, but only if you like the feel of the original Ridge Racers. Don't expect the gameplay of the best version (R4) to come out, in it. It does have single cart multiplayer, and a screaming framerate, for what its worth.

You should not pick any of these - wait one more day and go pick up Atari Classics or import Meteos.

He was specifically asking for mainstream. So go figure. They aren't my total next recommendations.

I like Tiger Woods because you have to use the stylist pin to shoot, which sounds stupid but is fun to play with.

I love Ridge DS. You have to be into the old schhol RR games though. It drives like Ridge1 and Ridge Rev. Some cool hidden extras too.

I honestly can recommedn another game outside of MArio 64.

Everyhing else is mediocre. Even wario ware dissapoints me.

Feel that magic is an abortion.
