Batman: Arkham City
LA Noire
Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (unfinished because I’m moving, but so damn charming)
Gears of War 3
Jetpack Joyride
Two notes. I haven’t found the time to play Mario Land 3D or Mario Kart 7 but I’d bet one of them would have made this list if I did. I also didn’t play Skyrim because...

What was the best piece of technology you...
This was a fun experiment last year so I thought we’d do this again.
I’m a little torn with my answer this year. It was the year of the 3DS, I bought a new TV and I decided that physical books just weren’t for me. But despite all that I think the best piece of technology I purchased this year is my HTC Flyer.

My hero:
“One officer was able to hit the man with his Taser, but the suspect then broke the Taser wire with his light saber”

It would be great if there was a button on Tumblr that could add the music in my dashboard to my Rdio/Spotify/iTunes library. That way I could listen to the days music together on my way home from work, or over the weekend.
