[dba-Tech] Game advice

Hi Arthur,
If you live near each other and actually want to spend time together I would
suggest a board game. Yes, they still make them and some very good ones. I
am partial to WWII games such as those sold at www.multimanpublishing.com
but there are also other genres.

If you don't live near each other and actually want to spend time together I
would suggest a game that has some social interaction or cooperative venture
aspect to it, such as World of Warcraft (WoW). While I don't play "computer"
games, I have a friend who plays WoW just to do something with his brother
who lives in another state.

Subject: [dba-Tech] Game advice

My brother's birthday is coming up next week. He's the classic "man who has
everything", including a bitchin' computer that I helped him select and
which I seriously envy: 2 huge monitors, 8 gigs of RAM and a 2 gig video
card that demanded a power supply upgrade. (He's heavy into graphics, hence
the video card.)

One thing he doesn't have is video games, other than the Tiger Woods golf
game. So I thought I'd get him a game. I don't even have one game and know
nothing at all about the field. Ideally, I'd want one that takes full
advantage of that fancy video card,  I've heard that Call of Duty is very
popular now. Any thoughts or recommendations?

TIA,

Arthur
