I'm the right age to play Oregon Trail but I don't think we played that in my school. I remember Lemonade Stand
That's beautiful. Or taken literally, incredibly gross.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Ooh, Lemonade Stand!
Yeah, we most definitely played Oregon Trail at school during "computer time" wherein we happily dinked around on our Apples. All of us except one kid who was busy programming Turtle. He's independently wealthy now.

I'm looking forward to that one too. That is if I ever find time to play.

Unlikely. Your backlog is already enormous.

Yeah, but how far have you gotten into gears of War 2?
Or LBP?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Batman Arkham Asylum
whoa. Any chance of that coming out for the wii? It looks like it would be worth buying a gaming console for.

Next to none. You need the powerhouse consoles to run graphic like that.
Wii trades power for affordability. It's always been Nintendo's approach with the console and it's worked well for them.

My daughter played a lot of Oregon Trail 5 and really enjoyed it. Turns out you need a not easily found patch for it to run on XP though.
