I was visiting Paul's sister-in-law today and her son was playing a video game with zombies and wanted me to play the game with him. I took one look and was too scared! I don't know how he could play without covering his eyes! LOL

My daughter just loves the game Sly Cooper for the PS2.... I know, not as up to date in the systems as everyone else.

  LOL - my dad still has an Atari 2600 and still plays pong. As a matter of fact, when I was there this past week, I played Pacman for the Atari 2600. I had forgotten how much fun it was. Sammy went over to the tv screen a couple of times and kept trying to "catch" Pacman with his hands!

Pacman is a great game. I haven't thought about that game in years. This has been a fun blast from the past.

  But do you remember Pong, the original video game?

  Okay, DD11 says Wii Fit, Zelda-Twilight Princess and Wario Ware Smooth Moves for starters. DD7 loves Wii Sports and yes, the bowling. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOUR CAM CORDER READY TO GO WHEN THEY FIRST START PLAYING (you may want to enter it in one of those tv funniest video shows! LOL!) ALSO, DON'T EVER LET GO OF THE CONTROLLER, unless you've taken out extra warranty insurance of your expensive tv!!!!! :)

  My daughter (11 yrs old) loves Cooking Mama for the Wii. It's funny watching her try to crack and scramble eggs! When I get a chance, I'll ask her and my 7 yr old daughter for recommendations to pass along to you!

  I was just talking to my mom today and she reminded me that before we got the Nintendo, we had Sega Genesis with all the Sonic the Hedgehog games! I had forgotten all about those! We used to go to band camp, then all the kids would come over after camp and we'd play Sonic. That was 1991 or 1992. Wow! That was a long time ago!

  We had one of those Nintendo 64 machines and the Mario 64 game. I still play it when I go over to my mom's house. It's good clean fun.
