Scratch one grub.

I'm probably going to pump out a video blog in the coming days, but in all honestly my video blog time (which was typically my lunch hour) has now been replaced with Gears of War with my coworkers. I know what you're thinking, Gears of War Tim? Isn't that just another shooter type game? Well yes it's a shooter (third person actually) but it is definitely the game that has raised the bar between the previous generation and next generation gaming. Also, it's round based tactics, meaning no more "throw caution to the wind" Halo multiplayer- you think out your turns and strategize.

I've also picked up Viva Piñata, which my good friend Juan will quickly tell you "is a game for kids!" I've been tending to my virtual garden while trying to understand why my piñata sparrows will not mate. Yeah I know, major dilemma!

Unfortunately tonight all this gaming goodness will be put on hold while I prepare for exams this week.
