EA Sports Active Countdown
The fine folks at EA have provided me with a copy of their new fitness tool for the Wii, EA Sports Active. As such the day this arrives, yours truely will be undergoing the 30 day challenge set out by Electronic Arts and documenting my results in blog-like fashion.

This morning when I got in, I had a new video that ...

These games span across various systems dating as far back as the NES. The following is a wish list of sorts of games that I truly love. I know there are plenty of others out there who enjoy these titles as much as me, and it’s ...
