Oh, and the usual EA Sports fare. That's about it, I guess.
Monster Hunter Freedom Unite and Devil Summoner tomorrow.
I got another free $25 Gamestop gift card through e-rewards. It will be used on one of these games.

THE CONDUITspoiler (click to show/hide)is going to be terrible. :teehee[close]
It's not revolutionary, but the Conduit is a great first-person shooter designed just for Wii owners. While the game does not turn the genre upside-down, it is innovative in certain areas -- for example, it features the most customizable, precise and enjoyable controls of any console shooter created, hands down. Meanwhile, the technology powering the experience is leaps and bounds ahead of most third- party offerings for Nintendo's system. Combined, you've got a game that controls flawlessly and looks great. If you're okay with a few presentational cliches -- a story involving aliens that seems played out -- and a shooting experience that rarely strays from straightforward running and gunning, you're probably going to love the end product. If, on the other hand, you own another system, nothing The Conduit offers, fantastic controls aside, will seem extraordinary. Supposing you are a single console owner, though, High Voltage's shooter not only delivers a fun single-player quest, but an engaging online mode that will keep you fragging complete with WiiSpeak support for months to come.
8.0 Presentation
Variations of this storyline have been told a dozen times in shooters, but the presentation is still well done. Intriguing cut-scenes, great acting, and a variety of options make The Conduit pop.
8.5 Graphics
The Conduit's art is sometimes outperformed by its tech, but the end experience is still visually pleasing. An outstanding 3D engine allows for graphical effects uncommon in most Wii games.
8.0 Sound
Fantastic voice work, sound effects with genuine umph and catchy music. WiiSpeak sometimes drowns out the music and sound effects during online play.
8.0 Gameplay
If we were just rating gameplay control, it'd be a perfect score. The Conduit is a fun first-person shooter, but beware: it's also a straightforward one. Run and gun, enemy spawners, and little else.
9.0 Lasting Appeal
Between five and a half and eight hours for the single-player mode, which you can come back to for achievements. But the multiplayer mode will last months, if not longer.
8.6
Great OVERALL
(out of 10 / not an average)
Well IGN inflates all their scores by at least 2 points and all games on Nintendo systems are overrated by 1 point so The Conduit is actually a 5.6 game. :o
when is just cause 2 out
He basically said the gameplay is boring, yet gave it an eight.
I doubt it. I got a copyright letter from my ISP for DLing Excitebots so I'm off downloads for awhile :shh

Doing it wrong
yes... i am... uh, picking it up
I wouldn't touch the Conduit with a pole. That review read like it's a totally generic shooter with great Wii controls, as expected.
round 2? ???
round 2? ???
Man you jumped him fast for that. Not even 2 minutes and you were correcting him.
