   I've always wanted to try Tee-Off, but after you've played Hot Shots,   
   it's hard to find something else that compares.

   Oh man, isn't it great? One of my all time favorite NG titles. Just the   
   way they handled the scrolling and whatnot, it's such an impressive 2D   
   title.

   I've played parts 1 and 2, with 2 being the better of them. I've not   
   played them on the PS2 though, but I hear those are just as good. If   
   you're not into the super realistic golf that Tiger Woods(and other   
   utter shit) offers, this is for you. It's almost arcade-like...

   If you've got an Xbox, get the first one as well, the "special" stages   
   are built from tracks from SuperGT and Daytona 2. It's a real treat.

   Yeah, there were some great deals going on when the 32X died. I picked   
   up one for $20, but I don't think it came with anything, unfortunately.   
   I think the first few games I got for it were Space Harrier and After   
   Burner. I don't much care for either, so that kind of sucked. I did get   
   MK2 and Shadow Squadron ASAP though. Doom was great too, I must have   
   played through that 10 or 15 times.   
      
   I may be able to help you out with your 32X issue...email me at some point.

   I like Orta, but it's just so fucking hard. I mean, REAL hard, as in   
   dying quickly and frequently on pretty much any level.
