Video Game Extravaganza

Well, Thanksgiving is here and I get a WHOLE 4 DAYS OFF!!! YES!!! So I decided to go on yet another Video Game buying spree to soak my weekend in digital goodness!

So, last weekend I picked up my Wii which came with Wii Sports.  I also picked up Zelda: Twilight Princess, Red Steel, Call of Duty 3 and Marvel Ultimate Alliance for my shiny new Wii.  I usually keep my habit down to about 1 new game a week and this was already excessive for me.  Earlier that week I also picked up Yoshi's Island for the DS which is a totally awesome game!

On Wednesday after work, I went to EB Games to pick up my Old School Wii Controller, finally it came in so I can spend some of my 2000 pre-purchased Wii points and get some Old School games.  Unfortunately, nothing I really want yet.  I've already gotten 120 stars on Super Mario 64 on the N64.  I'd like to get SNES Mario Kart!!!  They should make it Online play too!  OH, GOLDEN EYE with ONLINE 4 PLAYER!!!  Nintendo, you don't need to pay me for those ideas, those are freebies.  But I digress.

So it's Wednesday night and I'm at EB Games.  I've got 4 days of luxurious video gaming ahead of me.  I got Final Fantasy III for DS, Guild Wars: Nightfall Collector's Edition, and Need For Speed: Carbon Wii!!!

Where am I going with this?  Well, this is the most I've ever spent on video games in two weeks in my life.  Adding EVERYTHING up, the Wii, the games, the extra controllers, the 2000 Wii Points, the Game Guides... It all came to a grand total of $725 +tax.  And this is simply a mind blowingly fun array of A+ rated video games.  I could hardly buy a PS3 and two PS3 games for this money.

God is Great, God is Good!!  Thank you Jesus for such an awesome life filled with such awesome games!!  Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!  I'm going to go back to gaming :)
