I recently received a Wii as a present from an old friend. I've been playing Zelda. It's fun, but a little too easy. I'm dying for Super Smash Bros Brawl. Due out in June. Also, Sadness looks like an interesting game.

Knock this tomfoolery straight off, Hawkstein. Capiche.

call of duty 3! hm, tony hawk project 8 is not fun to me. ok, shred for a couple of days but by the time i got to carnival world or whatever, i felt done with it.

Any other geeks mildy disappointed with the new Sam n Max "installment"?

I do not think it is as funny as the original. Still pretty decent though.

Okami is great! but I stopped playing it halfway through because Mr Binary brought me a copy of Final Fantasy XII back from his trip to New York.
Final Fantasy is going OK, about 70 hours wasted so far, and I nearly killed a giant tortoise today, but then I had to go out for dinner.
I haven't had much time to play games at home recently, so I've been more reliant on portables. Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops has been quite fun. You can recruit new soldiers for your army by scanning for Wi-Fi hotspots. It would be a lot more fun if the PSP's controls weren't so bad.
I'm also playing Elite Beat Agents (not as good as Ouendan), Guitar Hero I & II, and Donkey Konga 1 & 3 depending on company. The missus is better at Guitar Hero than I. She's also a big fan of Katamari Damacy.

Grid Wars 2.

Holy. Fucking. Shit.

Like Robotron, but about 100 times better.

Katamari Damacy t-shirts
They are so awesome. I have the elephant one and the ostrich one!

This is actually the title of the next Coheed And Cambria album.

the whole series is like that. it's great in concept and mood and graphics, but is completely uninteresting to play. Yawn.

What if I told you that Konami is developing an arcade version of Silent Hill, and that this version is a House of the Dead-style light gun shooter?

What if I told you that the arcade cabinet has a very menacing curtain hanging from it?

Surely that won't be boring!

I've been playing through the Silent Hill games as they've been released, and I don't mind how they play. I'm a dullard, though.

A lot of videogame nerds are whining about this arcade version, but I'd like to play it. It's a shame there are barely any arcades in the States anymore.

Edit to fix an appalling grammatical mistake. Further proof that videogames make you stupid, I guess...
