I wore that game out (Axis and Allies) playing the first version of it from 1988 into the early 1990's; use to love playing that game but I have not played it in over a decade.  Where the hell does the time go?

Oh, yeah, I moved onto XBox 360.

You really can't go wrong with "Sorry".  Truly a classic, even with the redesigned futuristic board it's played on now.

Also, this is popular with the families in Mississippi:

Not yet.  I have got to get a high speed intarweb service installed.  And I've been dragging my feet about that due to work taking so much of my time lately.

Yep.  That's what I've been told.  The games are addictive enough off-line!

I get online and play Call of Duty with Saniflush and the like.  XBox live has a lot of cool option on it though.  I.e. Netflix, downloadable old school games, etc...  Also, Howard uses it to gank the smaller women prior to when they gain a drivers license.

I don't do much PS3 Online.  I spend money buying new Guitar Hero and Rock Band songs and renting movies but that's the extent of it.  There are only so many times you can kill somebody in an online guitar battle and then realize they're probably 10 years old.
