Move Over GH3, Hello Rock Band

A cross post from a Live Journal reply. We got a Wii about a month ago. Well actually Maria won it at school. See we'd already said we weren't going down the new game system road again. Anyway, since then we've played GH3 every night that AJ is home (time off for camp). Of course, I had to buy the flying V guitar for myself... It's a cool way to play with the kids.

So, yesterday morning we bought the Rock Band SE. With drums AND vocals it's the new family favorite and we've have all been playing it constantly. When we all get tired AJ just kicks it up a notch:



Guess it's back to the store for me to get a 4th RB guitar (GH3 doesn't play with RB) and probably a mike stand.

So this is addiction...

"Game Site of the Week" FlashFlashRevolution

First, this is a quick test of blogging from my RSS feeds. Apologies in advance if it looks, well, ugh. Ash wrote on his blog about a fun, supreme time-waster web site called Flash Flash Revolution. Let's see if it came out below:

FlashFlashRevolution: Craze? You be the judge.

First of all, I would like to apologize that I will sound very "dorky" by writing this entry. That being said, here goes. This site is great for long-time DanceDanceRevolution gamers and anyone interested in giving their fingers a major workout. If you like the mixed, funky, techno music that is always pumpin' in DDR, you'll have a blast movin' your fingers to the trance-like beats. I have an XBOX and I had no idea that there was the 'crazy arcade hall game' available for the console. One of my friends brought the game to my cousin's house and after playing it I said, "I have to have it." I purchased DDR Ultramix 2 for the XBOX and played it avidly for about 2 months. It seemed just a phase. Almost 2 years later, my dad showed me this link to FlashFlashRevolution. This site rekindled the memories of the fun I used to have. So I play this when I am too tired to get up and dance, but still have the joy that comes with any music-based, beat-following, video game.

"Game Site of the Week": You Don't Know Jack


My, oh my, this is a winner of a time waster. I remember playing the CD version of this game with family and friends. Now it seems that the fun has moved on-line at their web site: You Don't Know Jack. Check it out for yourself and let me know what you think.
