Been playing Manhunt and Forza 2

I just bought Manhunt, and although you can definitely see the traces of the GTA engine (especially if you want to look around and you can only do it in first person, I hated that in GTA vice city and I still hate it here), stalking dudes and taking them out in gruesome ways is pretty fun. The gunplay feels really weak though, and it appears the game wants me to start leaning more towards taking dudes out with my gun. I don't want that at all, I just want to be stealthy and ram a glass-shard into the neck of my enemy, not shoot them to death. That's stupid. Other than that, great game. And I've been playing Forza2, trying to master drifting. I don't think I'll ever get good at it though. :( I've also decided from now on to write a review every time I finish a new game. I've just written a review of The Darkness, which I finished last week. I rather liked it.
