Hey Web,

I'm jealous of your HDTV purchase!  Someday...

I'm certainly interested in some Operation Flashpoint sometime.  Have you played with the DSP guys any?  I haven't, because frankly, I'm even worse at Op:Flashpoint than I was at Ghost Recon!    I'm working my way through the Campaign now.  Once I get through some more of it, and get my bearings, maybe we can get together.

By the way, I really think they should change the name to "Operation:Cut Scene."  Geesh!

I've only hooked up with the DSP crew once.  I'd gladly play more, but it's not the type of game that you want to have interrupted by a screaming baby, so I've refrained from joining in with them too much.

Yeah, the single player campaign starts very slow.  Stick with it, though, because there's a lot of good gameplay to follow.  If things get tedious, you can break things up by doing some of those one-off missions.

Like Web, I also purchased the 32" Westinghouse LCD when it was on sale back in November.  Also, was fortunate to grab a 360 from TRU on launch day.  With NBA 2K6, I'm pretty much set for a while.  Those were my sole holiday gifts and I'm quite happy.

This past weekend, I traded in around 30-40 cds and came away with $147 in store credit.  So, when College Hoops drops, I'll pick that up and then I'll either purchase Fight Night 3 or Top Spin 2......whichever gets better user reviews.
