Saturday Musings
1. Sensible World of Soccer is as good as I imagined. I love how it’s frozen in 1996 with MLS teams and fake names. I do forget that the New England Revolution was very crappy back then.
2. I finally received my 360 HDDVD player today. The shipment was supopsed to get here Thursday. Thanks Fedex! The HDDVD player combined with my new Pioneer 5.1 audio for the 360 makes for a very good system.
3. While my daughter went to Hannah Montana, I took my son to Chuck E Cheese. It’s pretty impressive. I got to play this SEGA jungle game that was pretty immersive. And the Deal or No Deal game where you can win tickets….I don’t know who had more fun — me or my son.
4. We also played laser tag. That was fun.

Don’t forget to set the HD-DVD player to downmix to DTS and not DD. It will downmix to DTS at 1.5mb/s and not DD’s 640k/s. So it’s a slight increase in quality.

I took my son to Stars and Strikes here on Saturday as well. We played laser tag, but I was not impressed. They let us play even though we were the only 2 there. Additionally, it was much smaller of an area that I am use too.
We too played the deal or no deal ticket game. That can get addictive. I played twice winning 15 and 30 tickets. My son played twice winning 30 and 107 tickets.
