It is Eggmas Day. I saw a documentary on television this morning that tried to argue that if the resurrection of Christ was presented as a trial in a court of law, any unbiased judge would look at the evidence and rule in favor of Team Jesus. The primary bit of evidence they used? The empty tomb. Apparently, if you see a tomb and it’s empty, that’s evidence of resurrection.
An empty packet of beef jerky is now proof that cows can come back to life.
Not that I’m saying it didn’t happen (because it definitely did), I’m just saying that the documentary was really, really lame. If you do the Jesus thing, I hope you all had a fine day. To celebrate, this week’s video is another clip from the fourth best musical in the world (AfterLittle Shop of Horrors,Rocky HorrorandMeaning of Life),Jesus Christ Superstar. I think it’s a pretty awesome song, this one.
Oh, and make sure to read our games of the week.

Playtesting.
I’ve been playingMLB 09andBurnout Paradise, of course. But aside from that, I hung out with Dtoid NY at Chinatown Fair last night and played a round ofTime Crisis 4and a song inGuitar Hero Arcade, which I believe is the newest addition to that arcade. It’s just as awful as you’d expect an Activision product to be: it’s basicallyGuitar Hero IIIwith a limited song selection; each song costs $1 to play, and amazingly, they have certain “premium songs” (one of which is “Cherub Rock” by The Smashing Pumpkins) that are $2, I think.
Drools
So yeah, I have a DSi, and I think it’s pretty great. The photo and music channels have kept me entertained for hours. As for actualy games, I finally got to playBig Bang Mini,Retro Game Challange and Impossible missionfor the DS, and pained my way through two hours of set up ofWario Ware: Snappedonly to get ten whole minutes of gameplay. Still playingArt Style:AQUIAandRune Factory: Frontierfor review (both games are much tought to complete than they look), and tons ofBirds and Beans.
If there were ever a game that defines the maxim “more fun than it deserves to be”, it’sBirds and Beans.
