Depending on funds this month I'm hoping to put down a deposit on a Wii...
This is possibly the only console I've been excited about since X-Box 1, and even more that the Super NES...

I'm just loving Gears Of War on my xbox 360 (on LCD WS high res) it is so blow away styles. I usually hate 'shooters' on consoles but this is the best console game I have ever played. When I am in the mood for cooky fun, Viva Pinata is the go. Besides that, Test Drive Unlimited, NFS: Carbon, Dead Rising, DOA4, roses XXX let me play the xbox 10+ hrs daily while I am in 'healing mode' with NO TIME FOR GETTING BORED.
I tell ya, if I was able to earn $50K/yr every year for simply just sitting at home playing games, I would. I'm actually saving more money for when I was earning $20K-$30K year more working simply because I was blowing $$$ on going out/pubs etc. I've saved $12K since June
It'd be about $3K more if I didn't splash out on a heap of motorbike stuff when I got my new bike. I'm guessing playing games most of the day will get to me, more so when I heal up and feel the motivation to 'do stuff' again and then I will work again but until then, it's GAME ON BABY

I'm getting my Wii on Friday. So stoked
I'm going to be extremely hungover and scattered when I try to set it up because my work Christman party is on the night before. Should be interesting...

My little brother works for David Jones in their Electronics area and he gets a free Wii on Thursday i think he said. Apparently, they are not realeased until then but he is also getting Zelda with it.
I have made the best show of being uninterested cause he is a cunt and will not play it otherwise. I fully intend though on going on round to his house whilst he is at work and playing till my heart is content. They joys of working night shift

OMG!!
The Wii is so cool. I played it yesterday, both Zelda and Wii Sports and it is the shit. Zelda is pretty involved because you have to have two consoles and lotsa buttons but it is pretty fantastic.
In other news, we were all playing the Wii last night at work ( i know!!) and i think i strained an arm muscle playing tennis
. Hahha. I was getting so into it and this dude i hate was beating me. I had to pretend that was nothing was wrong and then nurse my sorrows later on at my desk.
