I came across " Hordes of Orcs " by Freeverse. This is possibly one of the most addictive games I have ever played. (Currently Apple Macintosh OSX only...) It is a "tower defense game", and for $25 it is a bargain. (You can save 10% through the month of December by using the coupon code MACSANTA07TEN ). They have a playable demo that lasts for 60 minutes. It is simple to play, tough to master. I highly recommend it... (As if I needed something else to cut into my free time).

Guitar Hero III on the Wii is really cool. Even though it is not *my* personal favorite, three members of my family love it. And the word is that it is much harder than the previous two Guitar Heroes. So if you have a Wii (if you don't, you should...) and you can find a Guitar Hero III for the Wii - I suggest picking it up. You won't regret it. A small note, however, the Wii version has a glitch where it is only outputting sound in mono. Activision is working with Nintendo to plan the best way to remedy the situation, but we are told to expect free replacement disks early in 2008 which will fix the problem and put Wii Guitar Hero III in stereo like the other two platforms.
