Holiday Fun

Sunday, December 7th, 2008

I love to play games, and I think my love of games has rubbed off on my children. I’ll play any board game against anyone. I personally love Monopoly, but in 12 years, my husband has only one a few times (so for some reason, he doesn’t want to play with me anymore). However, this year, I think our game playing will be on our Wii. We are having Christmas at my house, and we are the only one with a Wii. Besides some Wii games, I think we will be playing War and Go Fish, since Madison is four and that is about all she knows how to play.

What games do you play on playing over the holidays?

Order Up!

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

If you read my other blog (Lisa Reviews), you will already know that a couple of weeks ago we bought a Wii. Let me tell you, if you don’t have one, make sure you get one! Yes, it is that awesome! That being said, I came across a new game that I so want to try out called Order Up!

Order Up! is a game that I know I would love to play on the computer which is why I am so excited. This is my genre that I love to play. The fact that it is Wii game just makes it that much more awesome! The game teaches you how to run a restaurant kitchen. However, you will spend most of your time cooking. You make dishes, manage cooktop stations, and also play manager. You move up in the world too. You start out in fast food and you are able to work up to working in a world class restaurant. The coolest part of this game? It simulates real cooking, so you have to pretend you are using real items like knives, spoons, tongs, and ladles. If you think this sounds cool, you need to watch this Order Up! Trailer. I know it makes me want it even more. Think I can talk Bill into letting me get it if I tell him it’ll make me a better cook?
