My Super Mario Galaxy 2

Buckling to purchase my first video game in YEARS is in no way a regret.

My Nintendo Wii

Not that it wasn't a total win before, but with the upcoming Netflix incorporation and the release of another installment of the greatest Wii videogame franchise, 'Super Mario Galaxy' (sorry MarioKart, the Wii was MADE for 'Galaxy'), there's not a better time to invest in the most popular video console in the world. With the recent snow days, I'm currently logging in some time with Super Mario Bros. Wii.

My Super Mario Galaxy

Since the first installment of Super Mario Galaxy for the Nintendo Wii is probably still the best game for the console, it was a no-brain for the folks over at Nintendo to greenlit a second installment. As much fun and inventive as the concept of changing the traditional "worlds" gamers have been used to from Mario and company in the past to "galaxies" the first time around, the recently released trailer for the sequel shows no signs of that creative gene fading away. I can't wait to literally wiggle Mario (and apparently Yoshi as well) through cartoony dangers once again. 

My Left 4 Dead

The first time I saw promos of the new XBox game, Left4Dead, I thought it was some weird chapter of the Shrek franchise. Look at it... the font is kinda cartoony, with the ogre-green fingers... Sadly(?), I was mistaken.
