    Aww, you beat me to it dumpster_fox! I'm also posting from my Wii. Typing is a lot slower with the onscreen keyboard, but still nifty.

    It's an updated GameCube. I don't want a console revamp...

    EDIT: Console gamers are ignorant. PC gaming will outlast Sony, Nintendo and well.. Microsoft console gaming.

    I count my PC as a worthy alternative. One that will beat all of them as a matter of fact. Gaming never was so fun.

    PC's and consoles both have their pros and cons for gaming.

    PC:
    Pros:
    • You can buy parts for a better gaming experience performance wise.
    • Games are not limited by the technology in each PC.
    • MODS!
    • Custom content in most games.
    Cons:
    • The game may require you to buy parts or a new PC all together.
    • Games can advance faster than consumer hardware.
    • PC's get viruses, which hamper gaming.

    Consoles:
    Pros:
    • All the games for that console will work, and some have backwards compatibility.
    • No viruses to hamper play.
    • Built for gaming, so is generally better for games.
    Cons:
    • Cant be upgraded, so once the technology is too far ahead, the console loses support.
    • Damn expensive to take to a service centre.

    There is no consoles vs PC. That's only something the press and fanboys come up with.

    If there's any console I'd go with it's the PS3, but I'm going to wait untill prices drop like I did with my PS2.

    I got my PS2 for $150 & it came with two free games, a carrying case, & an extra controller, A pretty good deal. Toys R Us has some kick ass deals for consoles usually two or three years after the console has been released. Of course it still doesn't beat the deal I got on my Xbox. Free! because my cousin got an X360 (I still think the Xbox has some pretty crappy games but hey I found two games that weren't crap, PGR2 & Fable =D)

    I've gotten better at boxing but can't do a hook reliably. Can anyone offer any help? On the boxing bag challenge, I can only knock down 21 punching bags.

    Ok, guess I just have to work on it. For some reason punching in general seems to work a whole lot better if I punch downward instead of straight forward. I'm up to about a 900 skill level. The computer guys are getting feisty, but if you just keep dodging they'll throw some punches and open themselves right up.

    I still can't find a Wii anywhere. Online Stores = Me Vs. a Giant Crab (AKA, no way.)

    Any, and I mean ANY local stores have people camping out and all taken the day before. This sucks.

    Nintendo is undercutting the other consoles in price and demand exceeds supply. Why would they lower the price of their console?
