Because too many puzzles can be unhealthy and annoying.

Yeah, once I got hooked on multiplayer back then, I couldn't put it down. I really enjoyed the competitive nature of the games.

I haven't been playing lately but I got my money's worth by spending gazillion hours online with MW, MW2, and W@W. I used to crticize the CoD games for having really short single player campaigns, but after I got into multiplayer, I don't bash it anymore. Because it's the multiplayer that'll give you your money's worth, if one gets into it.

It was the same with Bad Company 2. I think I played an hour of the single player campaign and never touched it again. It's not bad but the multiplayer is where the game shines.

Which is why I don't recommend the CoD games for the single player. I'd say just get Goldeneye Wii for a solid single player.

I'll likely get both since I've run my FPS (current gen) collection dry (still have KZone2 though).

I played Halo3 online for the first time this week (I was testing how much bandwidth it would take).  I really suck at it, but man I love online shooters.  It's like me and bowling.

I played Kinect at Best Buy, the display had no one playing cause I assume most people have no clue how to use it or they don't want to look like a moron. I jumped in and had to calibrate where I would stand and it was pretty far back and you do need lots of space to move around, impossible in my room. I got to move around menus with my hand as a cursor, here you notice the lag. It is about a second lag but you get used to it.  To press on anything on the menu you hold your hand around it for about a second or two.

Kinect Adventures was the game on display so I did the ball hitting game where you need to smack balls at targets at the far end of a wall. The game launches balls and you smack them, if you do a hitting motion you will hit the ball harder. As long as your on screen representation touches any part of a ball you will hit it back. So I moved my hands to hit the balls at the targets. Sometimes I felt like my aim worked and many times it felt random. Didn't matter cause the game was so simple. I didn't put much effort into it cause people started to watch and I felt like a crazy person.

Next I tried out this game where you need to plug holes in a fish tank as they are created. So you put your hand out and forward to plug the leak. Again simple. I tried the game where you are in this moving cart and you have to duck under obstacles or move side to side to avoid them. Here I noticed how much space you have you literally can move a few full steps in either direction and still be in the game so it covers lots of space, probably for two players.

As I played people watched, I felt stupid. I never tried anything that had me jumping around and I rarely gave full effort. But would I want too, I don't know. It seemed fun for a while but it gets boring quick. I saw no potential for real game application, it is a big party game machine. I swear I have done something like this at Disney world many many years ago, that is what it felt like, a theme park attraction.

DK Jungle Beat and Muramasa get.

I only played DK:JB for one second. No joke, just to see if the game works. Played an hour of Muramasa with Kisuke, and I killed lot's of Iga's. I feel dirty

Hamster and I are back from our cruise! I brought pictures!

I have probably been on that boat.

Were you all shaven and buff too?

Kinect selling out at retailers?

I will just say that at my Best Buy there were Kinects EVERYWHERE. A lot were bundles, in fact I dont know if I even saw non-kinect 360 bundles, they are probably hidden.
