Spirit Tracks has TOTALLY sold me, after hating it for a while... yup, in the water region, there are a bunch of yellow dolphins jumping around, and you get to fire at them with your train cannon! I've been just riding around on the tracks shooting dolphins, it's amazing!

Foolishly I bought the Magic the Gathering XBLA title while it's on sale for 400 points. Thankfully there are no booster packs this time around. The original card game had me by the balls up until about Ice Age. It looks like a decent representation of the gameplay; better than the PC version they had for awhile, at least.
Its pretty decent, esp. for 400 points. I play the cardboard game quite often still :'( Its so much fun. Let me know if you wanna boost the cheevs
I have the viral achievement (0 points!)
Kewl, kewl. I need all the extra 0s in my Gamerscore as possible. I can just add that on the far right, turning 26,000 into 260,000, right?
I'm definitely up for player matches. It's been ages.
I've been playing
Beatles Rock Band, trying to get the various "expert gold stars" doing nothing but singing, since I'm not good enough at the other instruments. Got two so far, and am stoked to see they've included unlockable gamerpics.

Tonight though I played more
GTA4: Ballad of Gay Tony, and was really feeling it. I almost cleared the fight club sequence, but DQ'd myself by chasing the last guy into the entranceway.

Yusuf Amir is another great character for the GTA historybooks as well. I think I played his last mission tonight, and it was epic. I hope they can keep things funny when they do the next GTA, as Nico was dry as hell.
