It's interesting how long it took me to hit 100 posts, and then the relative lack of time it took to hit 300. I still have no idea how people can spend the amount of time it takes to spam 10,000...
The Patrick Stewart SNL skit was the first thing I thought of when I heard "Nintendo Wii". What a stupid name. "We" I could understand and get behind. "Wii" is just a bunch of bullcrap to get...

Good lord that game was awful. I don't remember the last time that I played a game that felt like "work." Now I love turn-based console RPG's. My collection and reviews are evidence of that....
