Nova Barlow Oh xbox, I missed you so. Welcome home! 
Nova Barlow @SusanArendt I mix it up in the Altoids tin between new stuff and old favorites like Picross. Nothing noisy though. 
Susan Arendt I'm curious: Assuming you bring a DS with you on a plane, what games do you bring? Whatever's current, or the same few titles?

Jessica Fielhauer "thank you very much... for being a woman." "If i had a nickle for everytime i heard that..." - office exchange 
Erik Jacobson The wall climbing is a bit more touchy with locking on as well, but both the story and combat seem to be fleshed out much more. We shall see 
Erik Jacobson On the fence about Assassin's Creed 2, they switched engines and all the characters look terrible, but the city looks great. (continued...)
