Welcome back

Anyway, about video games.

I just got a package in the mail today with (among other things) Animal Crossing: City Folk in it. I really want to play it, but the first question asked of me when I turned it on was "Do you want to start where you left off in Animal Crossing: Wild World?" to which I replied enthusiastically "HELL YES."

I immediately started looking for my copy of Wild World, and two hours later am still searching. I don't want to start a new game when I have the option of picking up what I already had in Wild World. What a great feature! It's like backward compatibility plus! When something awesome like this happens, it figures that I can't find my damn game to do it.

So I'm grappling with either continuing my search, or just starting fresh, but man I'd really like to keep my old game going. I had a lot of time put into it.

Moving on. Still playing Rock Band 2 more than anything. Gold-starred the entire No Doubt pack with Schteve, and I'm currently working on gold-starring The Perfect Drug by Nine Inch Nails. So there's that.

Gears of War 2 was a great game, but that was to be expected. Horde mode is a blast, but I've already moved on from that game after finishing campaign. I'm working on Fable 2 in between Rock Band 2 sessions, and now I've got to try and fit Animal Crossing in there as well.

I'll be writing a review of Animal Crossing in about a month; I'll post a link to that here once it's published. Till then, back to the search...
