I'm fine with playing tekken for the fighting game although i think that Dead or Alive have some great games in the series. Not too keen on the flight sims myself, mainly the fact that i no longer have a joystick and it just loses all value without one.
Gran Turismo 4 i would say is the perfect driving game as it probably the most realistic. Burnout is more of a speed demon rather than skill, obviously its still a great a game and i'd have a no problems with it but it GT4 for me.
Anyway, if i come up with any other ideas i'll get back to you, maybe something crazy like super monkey ball would be fun, but i'll just keep it at that for now.
