I am trying to get a bunch of us to go as the Aqua Teen Hunger force cast for Halloween. If that does not work I can settle for old people playing the Wii.

Nintendo Power Previews
Cursed Mountain Preview
-Use Tibetan Prayer movements to exorcise demons.
-Enter the ‘Bardo’ or Tibetan Spiritual Realm to see otherwise invisible ghosts.
-Combat mechanics are why developer Deep Silver chose Wii.
-Wanted a survival horror that wouldn’t let you clutch the controller close, saying that the open armed movements make you feel ‘very vulnerable,’ which adds to the experience.
-The mountain itself offers exciting challenges, including a balance act that requires you to tilt the remote for balance as you cross a narrow passage.
Nintendo Power Lit Preview
-Developer of Contra 4 and Shantae (Way Forward)
-’Built around the concept that light is life and darkness is death.’
-Play as ‘Jake,’ a high school student whose school is overrun by shadowy creatures that are too dark to see, but can be sensed crawling and scratching everywhere!
-Jake and his girlfriend, the only survivors, are in contact only by cell phone.
-Thirty levels and five ‘puzzle oriented’ bosses (all former school staff, now horrible monsters)
-Use control stick for movement
-Carve paths via light sources to escape
-Wii remote is flashlight
-Switch from top down view to 3d behind back perspective.
-Turn on lamps, break windows and more to light the way and survive.
-Use tools such as flares, TV remotes, slingshot, computer monitors and more to escape!
-Way Forward expects to finish by end of year and publish hopefully early next.
Obama’s Ad In Madden 09
After all the negative things That Obama has said over the years about video games, (You can check it out in a earlier post HERE) I am not sure why is using video games? It can not be for the mass publicity that is swiping all the gaming sites and blogs, about the first president to use in-game advertising?
