My last race was at Talladega where I was up and down in the top 10 for the entire race. Bump drafting is a necessity on the super speedways as the lead changed at least 30 times during the race. I got a little help on the last lap to take the lead and had to fight off the CPU to hold it around the last bend and across the finish line. What a thrilling race. I'm loving this game.

Mafia: The Definitive Edition is getting a free PS5/Xbox Series X/S update today. I've been holding off on replaying this game in the hopes of a 60fps update and the wait has finally paid off. Red Dead Redemption 2 and the Arkham series are last games I'm waiting on 60fps updates for.

You've never played RDR2? Oh boy...

I completed it two years ago, but I'm waiting for a 60fps patch before playing it again.

Ahhhh.  You bringing it up makes me want to start another playthrough.  I've never finished it.  Never even got to

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

Arthur Morgan is one of the greatest video game (and fictional) characters of all time. I had my doubts about the game when I heard it was a prequel and that John Marston wouldn't be the main character, but I was wrong.

You really should finish it. I've watched my younger son complete it twice too. You haven't even seen the best scenes in the game.

Been playing with the emulator again trying to recapture some feelings from a couple decades ago with Fight Night Round 2 and NCAA Baseball 06.  I had a save so long ago with a heavyweight named Zehnder (that I posted on an earlier version of these forums) but I can't remember if it was with Round 2 or 2004 or some other version.  I think it was prob round 2 because of the cutman in the corner mingame.  Was round 2 the only version that had that?  I also remember there was extensive workouts between fights with weights and other training minigames you could do.

Both Round 2 and Round 3 had the cutman mini-games. I'm assuming we played against each other in Round 2 (see below) because I can't find Round 3 with my other PS2 games.
