I can’t wait to finish this book and kick my kid off the Xbox so I can play Lost Planet *drool*

And Oooooooo I want Wii Fitness too (and boy do I need it)

>>Cause I would NEVER take pleasure out of pretending to knock out my kids.

I would

Estella — I’d never really played it either but we checked it out last night at the Game Stop. It was fun.

Limecello — Monkeyball makes a funny noises when the monkey falls over the side of the mountain! AIAEIEIEIEEI!

Laura J- I said the same thing. No point in getting a Wii if you’re not getting a game where you have to move. Though I will admit, House of the Dead is calling my name. SO not the game to play with the kids but I loooooove shooting up zombies!

We (meaning me and I share it with my kids, cuz I’m cool like that) love our Wii. We just got one a few weeks ago. Today I downloaded the internet to it (you have to buy a points card, but basically it only costs $5 and you will have points left over for some other games from the Wii Shopping Channel).

Our games right now include the one that comes with it and Disney Princess for my daughter, some other game that we bought for the extra remote, Mario Cart and Carnival Games, which is the current favorite. In 12 days (no, really I’m not counting) I will have Wii fitness. If you haven’t seen it check it out, very cool. Eventually, we are going to get the Playground game.

One thing that I really like about it is you do actually have “move” some while playing. My middle child is very computer addicted but with this then he is at least moving around. The rule was no shooting games, any game we get has to make you get up and move.

I like Monkeyball. I think. Haha we only had a NES and then N64 [I just dated myself.]
I want a wii though - seems like a lot of fun. Once they solved that whole “wii have a problem” thing.

Have never owned any game system.
Have played with a Wii at my daughters. Some of the games are a lot of fun.

I admit it, I love game systems. We have gamecube and PS2, and my girl is bugging me for a Wii. I’m tempted, so that I can have the PS2 and I can play Lara Croft Tomb Raider all day. Love that game.

You know, if was in my twenties and have no kids, I’d toally be a gamer.

There is nothing more fun than boxing with your kids. I’m just saying. You know, I’ve heard and all, from other people. Cause I would NEVER take pleasure out of pretending to knock out my kids. Even when they’re snotty and stuff. Not ever.

I’ll just wave and say Hi, since I have never owned any game system.

Dude! Chick! Get Rock Band…then the whole family can play. The downside (for me) is they need new rockband games–we already did all of ours *sigh* and Guitar Hero isn’t as much fun IMO. But it is fun! ANd it teaches children valuable lessons about music–namely classic rock Heeh
