LOL, so I jut got the trial of Market Samurai, and had to do the upgrade to full for discounted $97 - OMG this rocks.

Free trial, highly recommended you all go try it.

Then yesterday, I am staying with a friend and she just got Wii - which I have never done before but I think that sucked up about 6 hours of time, so I feel like the whole week has really been xmas with all these new toys.

I am feeling some pain from doing the boxing on Wii - and never imagined how that system can pull you in.

My favorite vote currently however is for the bowling. My friend and I were able to drink and bowl and felt like we were at the alley - how sad are we? LOL

    The WII rocks,and you really can get a workout from the sports game alone.

      I'm afraid of liking it too much, because it is my friends game and I would need to go out and buy one when I go.

      I like the difference from regular workout tapes - because you are really engaged. On the boxing for example, you really have to punch or the guy is going to knock you out.

    Yes, it is addicting. The good news is the price has dropped over $50 most places.
    Of course, once you get the WII, you will want to get the WII Fit.

    I tried the wii boxing against my buddy's 12 year old. In like 5 minutes im sweatting, breathing like the devil himself is chasing me and generally getting thrashed by a kid.

    But it was good fun

      She got the Wii fit and made me do stuff. LOL

      We even added her 5 cats and weighed them in too. They appear when you're doing the jogging thing, etc.

      Tonight we've been getting into to bowling, but I really would love some kind of disco bowling. Do you know where that is?

      My hubby was playing our 10yr old daughter and started complaining to me that it she was impossible to beat because she had more experience points. Turns out, the experience point that he was talking about was just the notification that she was using controller #1 and he was on controller #2. He didn't think it was as funny as I did!

        Ok, I just got over 200 score on bowling!

        I might have to buy my friend the actual ball, but I'm afraid.

        She is tall, and looks like she is going to hit the tv sometimes when she lunges forward.

        We did a round of golf, and some boxing.

    I though this was going to be a thread about how you somehow hacked the Wii and got Market Samurai to run on it.
