Oh the decisions

Today I went to EB Games to try and find Odama, which was reccomended to me by a co-worker and looks completely fabulous; think two player date night. They were all out, but I did pick up Brain Age and Battles of Prince of Persia for the DS. As much as I love my Nintendog, I've been jonesing to curl up with something more strategic before bedtime. I also picked up The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion for my husband. Even got him the collector's edition! Yes, I am a fabulous wife. Now the decisions. When do I actually hand the game over? He's not expecting it, so do I save it for an appropriate occasion? Or perhaps a time when I am going out of town for a month? Or maybe simply when he has done with Guild Wars for a spell and checked back in to Puzzle Pirates for a couple weeks? My mom and the rest of our crew miss him. Hmm...maybe I should try to get in any movie nights or his-turn-to-cook-dinner evenings first. See, I know that once he starts this game, he will do absolutely nothing else for quite some time. If there are any major chores to be done around the house, I'd better get him to do those before I surprise him with the mottled tan box.

You also want to make sure he doesn't go out and buy it for himself!!

I handed it over and it was anti-climactic. He isn't done with all the PVE missions in Guild Wars yet.

Which, by the way, is an MMO he plays entirely by himself. It may as well BE Oblivion!

When do get Odama let me know how it is. I noticed that it got a poor score in Edge (haven't read the review yet, so I take this with a grain of salt).

Odama is getting mediocre reviews, but that's because people are trying to play it single player!
