So I went to Target yesterday to buy a toothbrush. I left Target yesterday with a toothbrush and a Wii. What kind of chemical does Target pump through their A/C vents that causes you to spend 20x more than you intend to when you walk through those doors? I don’t know what it is, but I know it’s there.

Whatever the reason for the splurge, I don’t regret doing it. The Wii is awesome. I wasn’t sure I’d be able to get over the fact that Nintendo changed the name from the Revolution to the Wii, but I think it’s finally grown on me. I just wonder when all the Wii puns are going to get old.

I love my Wii. I love the setup. I love that you can create a Mii Wii that looks just like you. The console comes with a wireless internet connection, is easy to set up and really, really fun. It even comes with Wii sports. Boxing is my favorite so far.

The big difference between the Wii and the other available consoles is the amount of physical activity the games require. For all of those tightwad haters that knock down gamers for never getting off of their couch – suck on my Wii. Yesterday I golfed and boxed and I have to admit that I’m a little sore today.

LOS ANGELES, Dec 22 (Reuters Life!) – Lovelorn video gamers who are better with consoles than conversation, have a new venue — a restaurant where each table has touchscreens for ordering food and for playing a variety of social games.

Entrepreneur Nolan Bushnell, founder of the original Atari game company and the children’s U.S. restaurant franchise Chuck E. Cheese, has set up uWink in a shopping mall in Woodland Hills, a Los Angeles suburb, to attract an adult dating set. FULL ARTICLE ¬ª

GEARS OF WAR COLLECTOR’S EDITION

For years, the Locust Horde only existed as fictional characters in children’s flashlit-face horror stories. These bloodthirsty boogeymen inspired nightmares, but not preventative measures. By the time everyone realized the Locust Horde was real, it was too late.

They call it “Emergence Day” – the day when the Horde surfaced from their underground labyrinth to pillage human cities and destroy untold masses. Those that survived fought the takeover with chemical weapons and orbital particle beams, but the Horde remained intact and forced the survivors into Jacinto Plateau – the only structure strong enough to resist penetration. When the Horde breached the plateau’s defense, soldier Marcus Fenix defied orders to stand his ground and left to try and save his father at East Barricade Academy – but he didn’t make it in time. Rebelling against military orders didn’t go down too well. He was sentenced to 40 years in Jacinto Maximum Security Penitentiary.

It‚Äôs an awesome story with blockbuster movie potential. Sadly, unless you watch the commercials, sit through the game intro without hitting the start button or ‚Äì and this is the least likely scenario of all ‚Äì you actually read the intro in the instruction manual accompanying the game, you won‚Äôt know the history of Emergence Day or Marcus Fenix ‚Äì and that‚Äôs a damn shame.
