My brother will be picking it up on Friday...

I won't be playing it for a while though, I'm already snowed under with games. Far Cry 2, Fable 2 and Dead Space...! And more to come!

John Turner goes from endorsing 7 string ERB basses to video games? Next thing we know he will be announcing his pubescent voice crack.

What about the fact that Bruce is all over this game? I figured he'd just now be getting hip to Pong.

Seriously. He'll go from playing intricate prog rock with contrived technical changes to using his new Conklin endorsement for playing Ms. Pacman themes.

You're losing your fat balding Guitar technician fanbase Mr. Turner. I hope you know what you're doing. I should know I'm an expert in these things, I'm not balding, or a big fan of basses over 6 strings,... or a guitar tech for that matter, but I'm fat and I once admired your couch.

Somebody's gotta keep you 'real'. Although, the verdict's still out on the Hulk. I haven't had a chance to hunt down the comics you mentioned yet. No hating. Just tough love. Although I do hate the puffy shirts.

EDIT: They don't make it for the wii

I can run windows. I'd rather play on a console. It's a productivity thing for me. If I have games on my machine I get absolutely nothing done. TB is bad enough.

The PC version is far superior, if you have the hardware for it

Also, the game is very, very good.
