It’s hard to deny that video games are among the most stimulating media and entertainment products you could enjoy. There seems to be a title for every genre, for every theme, and for every world you want to explore. Worse yet, many are incredible! How is someone with limited free time supposed to get through it all?

Many of you may not know that I spend a good amount of my weeknights sitting in front of my computer as a couple of…

Farming Simulator 15 lets you manage your own farm in and open world filled with improved details and visual effects from the previous version thanks to a brand new graphics and physics engine!

My 16 year old daughter Amber, is the one who reviewed ‘Rayman Origins’ a game from Ubisoft for the 3DS.  Amber is enthralled with video games, so much so that she is planning to go to college to become a video game designer.

Kraft Foods recently debuted their new gum for teens, iD Gum. It’s kinda more than gum. Kinda Amazing. iD Gum offers up a delicious twist to the flavors you love – Peppermint, BerryMelon, and Spearmint – and is packaged in a sleek, innovative, folding pack featuring a new and unexpected magnetic closure. iD Gum is delivered in a semi-transparent cellophane wrapper that hints at what’s inside the pack.

In case you haven’t figured it out by now, my family is a bunch of geeks, LOL! Most of our family time is spent with those ‘stylish’ 3D glasses perched on our noses, with some sort of technology or playing video games.

Oh yeah video games and our family go waaaaay back, I mean to the era of Pong (my husband is almost 50!) and Commodore 64s, you know back in 1982 when 8-bit was all the rage. Oh wait, I bet some of you weren’t even born yet (now I’m feeling old…)

Facebook has a history of sucking me into its games. Most of the time, I’m able to coerce encourage friends and family to play along with me, and now I’ve found another game to take up my time….

Tail Towns Friends by Ganz (makers of Webkinz)…if you sign up to play…friend me on Facebook for a neighbor.

Funky Barn 3D for the Nintendo 3DS, is a new twist on your standard farming game. Many of us have fed chickens and milked cows on Facebook, but have you ever milked cows with a Milk-o-Matic or collected eggs with a Mobile Egg Collector? True to its name, Funky Barn is ‘funky’, and allows you to complete mundane farm work with interesting and creative machines.
