Wii Week Continues
Well, since Monday was heavily focused on the Wii, and Tuesday documented a Wii-related experience, I figured we might as well make it Wii Week and run three more days of Wii blog posts. I bet you’re all excited about that! Lindsey and I have been playing a lot of Animal Crossing: City Folk since we got it. It is the most played game we own now. When we got it, I figured that would be her...[Read More]
Blockbuster’s Wallet Buster

After eating breakfast, we cont...[Read More]

Trivial Pursuit?
After jamming to Guitar Hero: World Tour and loving how my throat hurt after doing my best rendition of Pat Benetar’s “Heartbreaker,” the gang and I decided to put Trivial Pursuit in my XBOX. I know some of you might be thinking that a board game played on a console must suck, and those thoughts would be correct. Chris was blatantly cheating, although he would say otherwise, and ...[Read More]
