Where I Get My Lazy From

I'm not the most productive fellow in the world. An excellent example of this is the fact that I am moving in two days and didn't get started on packing until Tuesday night. I would sit down in front of the television and start stacking up DVDs and games to go into the boxes, and before you know it I've found a game I haven't played in awhile and wasted several hours. Knowing my attention span problems, my mother offered to come over the other day and help me get started packing. Seeing as my mother rarely gets a chance to play video games and generally only plays PC point and click adventures, I figured I would show her Wii Sports bowling while I had her here, maybe let her throw a few balls before we got down to packing.

A Wii Bit of Table Turning

My girlfriend isn't really a gamer. Sure, there have been games in the past she's played for a bit, but nothing really seriously since Yoshi's Cookie on the NES. She does like to watch every now and then, which is what she was doing on Friday night as I took in a little Wii Sports action. I went through each game, playing a round or two. She was especially tickled to see the Mii I made of her in the crowd while I bowled. After about a half-hour I went to set down the controller. More »

Latest by kftgr: "Oddly, girls seem especially eager to flail (my gaming friends tend to keep it more relaxed/civilized)" I've noticed this too. The Wii is easy to play because most of the actions do not require fine movements. Case in point, more »
