Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Well with the money that Uncle Kevin dished out we did the unthinkable and purchased a Wii!
We have spent the better part of today playing Guitar Hero-World Tour. Me on vocals, Michael on guitar and Lys on drums!! And if you don't like some of the songs you can even download the ones you want...sweet!!! We are also on the lookout for HSM Singstar...Lys knows all the words (as do I) to EVERY song ;o) We all pretty much suck but geeze is it fun! It's a bit freaky to hear yourself sing (and a bit scary...oi) but it is a wonderful thing that we can all do as a family. We got some other games and stuff too. Mario Kart racing is good, Lys can do that too (with a little bit of steering help from Daddy)
The Wii Sport and Wii Play are actually pretty hard first time out, and second, and third. I assume we will get the hang of it, but the fact that it's something we can all do was what got us excited.
And you don't just sit there mute on the couch and give your thumbs a workout. You really gotta put a bit of effort in and, IMO, It makes it a little more fun. The billards was hard, fishing, damn hard and the target shooting was FUN!!! No ducks just balloons then targets then clay pigeons and then spaceships that are trying to steal people....like I said FUN! :oD
Well must away my vocal talents are required for a stunning rendition of "Eye of the Tiger" my public awaits...with earmuffs ;o)
