So they wife got me CoD Black Ops for Christmas. I don't play online much, and was thinking about trading it in for Medal of Honor. Thoughts on both? I have a 360.

Medal of Honor was disappointing IMO. I'd rent it before trading it in and see if you like it. I am pretty pleased with Black Ops. They just patched my biggest issue and it was spawn points. Spawning is so much better now.

My friend got another 360 with kinect and just left his old one at my place with Mass Effect. Started the game yesterday, so far pretty sweet. I'm excited since everyone who I talked to who played said the game was awesome.

I've had an urge for some video game football lately, but there seem to be no football games on the PC made in the last ten years. So instead, I picked up Blood Bowl, since Steam had a sale going on. It seems to be more like rugby, but whatever. It has a prolate spheroid and a rectangular field, it was good enough. Tried a couple matches in turn-based mode, and it kicked my ass repeatedly. Tried a game on real time mode, and it turned out to be fun.

It ain't exactly NFL 2k5, but it makes up for not being football by having orcs.

NFL2k5 holla!

Best football game I ever played.

Buddy of mine gave me Fable 3. Meh. Just not my kind of game, I guess. Boring. Too much running around shaking hands and looking for shtein. I play video games mostly to avoid that in real life.

How much you want for it?

FIFA 11

One of the best games out there.

Have to give it back. I just borrowed it.

Worked up a serious sweat today in Kinect Sports. The king of the ring mini game for boxing had me breathing heavy! Knocked out 13 opponents.

And today I am sore as hell, jesus I'm getting old.

The idea of getting exercise while playing a video games makes me angry.

A goddamn nation of shutins is what we're turning in to. Japan, in other words.
