There is one Batman product I am looking forward to - The Batman Arkham Asylum video game! Follow the [link] to see screenshots and a new trailer with plenty of Joker.
Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

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

Unlikely. Your backlog is already enormous.

I finally started playing Fable 2.

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.

I wonder what the next generation will be like.
So far I've discovered that Neverwinter Nights 2 is fun. Sort of reminds me of Baldur's Gate II with better graphics, but with inferior attention to detail. The character models are pretty disappointing, but that doesn't really hamper gameplay. I'd just like to make Dude Swift and Mentos Fresh a bit more distinctive looking.
The construction toolkit looks kinda interesting to play with, but I doubt I will ever have time to mess with it.

OK, you know what bugs me about tieflings in4.0? There's no "-ling" in that design. Seriously. That creature should be called a tieftor, or tiefosaur, or even tiefoceratpos.
Yes, we are giving 4.0 another shot while I'm still on bedrest.
