Hi everyone. I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving. I know I did.

I've been busy... OK so I've been playing video games, and I've been working a lot. Target doesn't give me a break, especially around the holidays. Oh well.

As a plus, I got a Wii. I must say, it's awsome.

Let me clarify to the people who might thing I'm a Nintendo Fanboy. I'm not. I had a NES and a SNES, when i was like 5 years old. Didn't really understand the differences among systems. Just new they were fun.

I didn't have a N64. My brother had one, but we only had one game: Milo's Astro Lanes. Whoo, hoo (in a monotone voice).

My brother had a Gamecube. I only played some Animal Crossing, and some Eternal Darkness.

I, myself, own a Playstation 2, and now I just hate Sony, with their PS3. My bro and I owned a Playstion also.

I didn't ever hate Nintendo, it's just I didn't pay much attention to them. But now, oh my goodness. The awsomeness of the Wii is awsome.

The Wii is also my first system that I got on launch day. I didn't really camp out. I had two friends, and I asked them to call my cell phone if there ever got to be more than 20 people in line (because I knew Target was getting 33 Wii's). So I went home after work, slept until 9 a.m., and then I got up and went through my routine, and then I got to Target about 10 a.m.

I was number 15 according to the list one of my friends had set up (yes, we were nice and organized). We got launch tickets at 11 a.m. (according to that, I was number 14) and then we waiting inside the mall, since the mall was opened to winter walkers, for about an hour and then Target opened and I bought a Wii.

I didn't hold back. I bought 3 games (because you get a $20 gift card if you do), 3 more remotes, and one Nun-Chuck, and obviously the system. I applied for a Target card, cause you save 10% if you do, and i used my discount, and i saved $166. My total came to $455. Yeah. Like i said, no holding back. I would've bought two more NunChucks, but I got the last one. I bought them now, since we got some more in.

I ended up getting Call of Duty 3, which accroding to my friend who has played it on the XBox 360 says it looks just as good, but it's more fun (funner? I always forget) on the Wii.

I also got Monkey Ball, which is a good party game, and Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. I haven't gotten to far with Zelda but it looks nice and feels like a Zelda game.

Wii Sports is a great party game. The Bowling is accurate, the golf is great, Tennis is great with four people (but could be deadly with four people swinging their arms around... I almost broke a lightbulb serving), boxing is a workout, and fun, Baseball sucks. Maybe it's because I keep getting fouls.

I also bought Red Steel. This is an interesting game. It shows off what the Wii can do with it's controller. It has sword fighting, and gun play.

First off, let's take a deeper look at the game. The graphics are sub par, except for the fire and explosions. They could have done better with the graphics. I felt like I was playing a PSP game.

Sword play isn't that great. First off, the game stops the gun play whenever a person with a sword shows up. So you're surrounded by baddies, but they don't do anything because you're fighting a guy with a sword. And you can't just shoot him, you have to fight him. Personally, I would have liked a choice. Sword fighting isn't that great. It just isn't. I can't really explain. You would just have to try it, and you'll know what I mean. It could have been better, is what I'm trying to say.

The Gun play is awsome. This is what they did right in the game. There is a learning curve, I would say it to be about 30 minutes to an hour learning curve. My friends and I just jumped into the multiplayer, and we looked like a bunch of retarded people in the game. Our arms were just flailing around. It was kinda funny. Then we got the hang of it... and I dominated. So they did a good job on that.

Speaking of Multiplayer, it's the crappiest thing ever. The graphics are worse in multiplayer, there's no destructable environments, not even bullet holes in walls. Not very many levels makes it worse. No online play, which I was actually dissappointed by. I would love to kill people online on the Wii. I usually don't put too much emphasis on online play, but Red Steel needed it.

Really, single player isn't too bad, but i wouldn't pay 50 bucks for it, even though i did. So wait until a price drop at least, you Wii or soon-to-be Wii owners.

Alright, I'm gonna step away from the Wii to CDs.

There's lots of CDs that have been and are going to be released. I just realized how obvious of statement I just made. Let's put "that I like" after "CDs".

On October 3, Skillet, released Comatose. I enjoy Skillet.

Grits released Redemption November 21. Great rap duo.

P.O.D. released a greatest hits album titled Greatest Hits: The Atlantic Years. It has 15 tracks of P.O.D. great hits and two new songs. Check it out.

U2 released a singles album entitled, U218 Singles which includes 18 singles including "The Saints Are Coming."

Now that we have CDs that have been released, let's look at future ones.

Toby Mac will release his new album Portable Sounds on February 20, 2007.

Relient K will release Five Score and Seven Years Ago on March 6, 2007.

John Reuben, on February 6, 2007 will release Word of Mouth.

I thought i had more, but obviously I was mistaken.

On a completely unrelated note, I cleaned my room and it looks really nice.
