Looking at this weekend’s “What we’re playing,” it appears that Batman: Arkham Asylum continues to make waves at the office. I did notice, however, that more and more folks are picking up Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box. As I’ve been traveling quite a bit (I’m currently in Indianapolis waiting on a flight), I think I’m going to see if there’s a store selling it here.
Expect more DS excitement next week with the release of the hotly anticipated Scribblenauts.

Found an unopened copy of CARMAGEDDON in the discount bin of my local game store and have been playing it for many a joyful hour as pedestrians scream and Max Damage laughs maniacally at all the vehicular homicide
Wow cant believe how playable CARMAGEDDON still is. Wont be lending my game out to nobody this time!
Also playing:
WOLFENSTEIN
FALLOUT 3
MORROWIND
DAGGERFALL
PENUMBRA-BLACK PLAGUE
Diablo 2 with my brother and two cousins… in Kurast now. Also playing a single-player game to get a feel for it… again.
There’s still way too much of Fallout 3 I haven’t seen, so I’m gonna take a brief break from modding and just play the game some more.
Still haven’t finished the WET demo or the Arkham Asylum demo, so that’ll take up the rest of my time, other than my ongoing addiction to Bejewelled Blitz, and the occasional foray into the Gatheryn MMO beta.
OBLIVION!
