I’m not much into playing online games. It could be because of our satellite Internet since it’s almost impossible to play them without killer lag. When I did play online games, some of my favorite were found through a forum. They had an arcade section that have some very fun games.

Also when you had the high score there would be a trophy by your name. Nothing is more rewarding than having two trophies to show your dominance not just at one game but two.

That’s one thing I miss with standard broadband. Maybe one day it will be available here and we can once again enjoy the Internet to its fullest. It would be so nice to regain one of my trophies again.

News came out a few months ago that the Wii is very sensitive to dust and smoke. Many gamers were reporting that their Wiis were acting up. Nintendo agreed to clean the consoles for free but warned of the dangers of smoking around your Wii.

So, if you smoke, you might want to consider and air purifiers. You can even buy them online through websites like Austin Air air purifiers. Locally we were limited to what we can buy as the store only has 1 or 2 brands. But online you can find just exactly what fits your needs.

If you do want to get one for your gaming console, then get one that will fit near your game setup. They do sell tabletop air purifiers that do work extremely well. We bought one for about $15. The filters that need to be replaced about once a month cost about $7.

An air purifier might be a worthy investment if you game and smoke. It might just save you a repair.
