I'm probably going to be playing Drawn to Life with my neice and I may or may not be taking Rock Band to my parents house next week.

Elliot Bonnie - Staff Writer
Doing it big with Call of Duty 4, Mass Effect, Gears of War, Ace Combat 6 , Forza 2, Need for Speed Pro Street, various PSP titles, Jenga, Trivial Pursuit, Clue, and Columbus Pale Ale. Ho Ho

I finally hopped onto the Nintendo DS bandwagon (first mobile gaming system I've ever bought into) and asked Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney to come along for the ride.  I'll continue cruising ye olde British empire with Jack Keane and a cup of Earl Grey.  And -- since I can't help myself -- I'm reinstating the Crusades in Medieval 2: Total War since I haven't yet held Constantinople for the Holy Roman Empire.  Jah, Mein Kaiser!

Bioshock – I will finish this game before the year is out – no, really!
Team Fortress 2 – I suck at this game, so I’ll be practicing.
Tabula Rasa – Level 30, here we come! I’m looking forward to seeing how the stats changes affect gameplay.
Call of Duty 4 – Once Bioshock is checked off, COD4 is next on my “must finish” list.
Rock Band – Family gatherings now have mandatory jam sessions. It wouldn’t be <insert holiday> without Rock Band.

I'm leaving on a jet plane, and I dunno when I'll be back again. The plane ride will be rife with courtroom drama as I attempt to get my Not Guilty verdict in Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations. When I touch down I'll be trying to get Shepard through the bug-ridden Mass Effect, but man is that game fun. And then the rest of the year will be dedicated to rocking out with Rock Band. And I might... just might log in to WoW after a five month hiatus.

With the holidays in full swing, I probably won't get a lot of gaming done.  That being said, I hope to spend some quality time with Bioshock while also checking out the latest beta releases of Galactic Civilizations II: Twilight of the Arnor and Sins of a Solar Empire.  I'll hopefully have a hands-on report for both of these games early next year.

I'm hoping to get some quality time with Mass Effect and Call of Duty 4 over the holidays.  I'm hoping to finish one or both of these games but I think family obligations may interfere with that.  I'm hoping to check out the new Warhawk expansion pack.  With the family in town I think we'll be rocking out with Rock Band and getting in some trivia with Scene It! and SmartyPants.
