Boston Rules or The DS is Starting to look Intriguing

After listening to the lp a few times, I can safely say that Boston's debut self titled album rocks hardcore. There are like 5 tracks from the album that are a part of rock's cannon, including More than a feeling, Smokin', Peace of Mind, Long Time, and Rock & Roll Band. In fact, I dare say side 1 is up there with the best side ones of all time!
Apart from that, I've been doing little recently. Well, apart from working and slowly restoring my computer to its former, program rich, life. One thing that has caught my eye lately has been some of the new games coming out for the Nintendo DS. I'm intrigued by where they are taking that system and will probably pick one up when some more titles are released. Its refreshing to see a game company trying to stop the downward spiral of un-creativity that has been happening in the industry. There are only so many sequels and rehashes of the same old genres that you can take... well at least I can take... The fact that these types of games continue to be the top sellers does not bode well for the future of gaming as something more than simple money sucker. Good luck fighting the good fight Nintendo!
