Ok, I'm a Geek...

But I couldn't resist writing about the new Wii game that allows normal mutants like myself wield a lightsaber.  In a story on the Times Online today, it says:

The Force Unleashed “casts players as Darth Vader's ‘Secret Apprentice’ and promises to unveil new revelations about the Star Wars galaxy,” the publisher said.

Now what is acting if not pretending once in a while to being a Jedi (or a Sith), crossing laser swords with a determined foe in a desperate battle for control of the galaxy? 

Ok, maybe it's not just me.  (Photo courtesy of StarWars.com)
