Kristin, don't forget to save a little time for Scrabulous while ND and Laga are off with the Mouse.
Saffron: But we've been wed. Aren't we to become one flesh? Mal: Well, no, uh... We're still two fleshes here, and I think that your flesh ought to sleep somewhere else.

Sean, I also think the Xbox is the one for you. Also, it's cheaper and its library is still ahead of the PS3. Eventually the PS3's extra capacity - the Blu-ray - will make it shine, but that still hasn't happened yet. Also, the Xbox has far more robust online gameplay and you could pick up a copy of Halo 3 cheap and join in the wacky shenanigans. Xbox Live only costs $50 A YEAR.
Peevil tempter.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
My Xbox Live username is HarshFire. I've got GTA and Halo 3. And a bunch of other games I've forgotten.
I was just playing GTA multiplayer in 'Free' mode, where you do what you want. We all went to the airport, and robbed helicopters.

was visiting KT last night. Watched her play GTA-iv. Wow. Very cool! Very tempting.

A quick follow up to the GTA violence-level conversation; last night I had to (HAD TO!, I tell you) shotgun a guy who was in a car. While the graphics don't depict real wounds on the people, the mess that was left on the windshield was definitely unpleasant.
Kevin, I'll add you to my FL when I get the chance. Mine's 'The Sengir'.
Still haven't touched MP. I'm almost loath to until I finish the story in case anyone spoils me for it. I'm really enjoying flying blind through the tale.

Maybe I should change my motto from "Here to make you look good" to "cannon fodder".
