Wii party
The roster for the Wii party was dm_bashir, mr_q_o_p, jr_psykira, airuvande, ofthefuture and myself. We all made avatars (most of us as close to real as possible, though mr_q_o_p decided to range a bit farther afield). Then we ran headlong into Wii Sports. Very huge amounts of fun. The boxing game is the one that people complaining about flailing arms will point to, and it does give you a workout, but it's still fun. Baseball is a bit weird, although ofthefuture deciphered it just fine. Bowling and golf are perfect, and all that tennis is missing is the ability to play a match longer than 5 games. Though it thinks I'm as fit as a 41-year-old (and is probably right).
I hesitate to call anything THE highlight of the day, but I was highly amused when jr_psykira's avatar sturck up a conversation with airuvande's, and ofthefuture grabbed him by the head and chucked him across the room (the avatar, not the real person).
qarylla showed up just as things were winding down. She got a Mii, despite her objections, and now the process of convincing her to actually try it begins.
The company I rent games from has been told to start sending me Wii games and not stop until I've played them all.
Why don't you have one yet?
On an unrelated note - today's Boston Herald cover story was an editorial on Grand Theft Auto ads on the subway. Normally I don't read this dreck, but since there was a free copy on the train, I checked it out. And they did provide some vital information: what hookers think of GTA.
