We bought a Sharp Aquos 1080p television (maybe 40"?) for $60 at Goodwill yesterday and the garage entertainment couch is now substantially upgraded. We spent a good portion of the evening playing Halo 2 on the original XBox. I have a whole box of games I’d like to replay (or at least nostalgically wander through), but first perhaps we need to buy a new electric blanket because the garage is a bit chilly this time of year.
Anyway, we had fun playing Halo and I only had to put the handicap on a little bit to make it mildly fair. The rule has always been in our house that you let the kids win occasionally in anything but Halo, but I’ve gotten a bit softer in my old age.
