THEIR CHOICE: CASTLEVANIA: DAWN OF SORROW ($34.99)
Soma Cruz returns to find himself in the middle of the cult's plans, and now he must infiltrate enemy territory and stop the evil of Dracula's resurrection from happening. The action spends all of its time on the lower screen, with the upper DS screen utilized for the map as well as character information data as players fight through the castles.
OUR CHOICE: DRACULA ($4.95)
Because deep, deep down in our hearts, we know how much Castlevania steals from this book, and reading it is basically playing a Castlevania game without the whips and the big boobed succubus.
THEIR CHOICE: METEOS ($29.99)
A planet called Meteos has started to explode. Fragments of the planet become and endless stream of meteors, putting your planet in peril. There's only one means of saving the planet. Send the falling meteors back into space with the power of the Nintendo DS -- use the touch pen to move blocks around the play field, as lining up three or more of the same color blocks either horizontally or vertically will group the blocks together into a clump and go flying back into space to help stop the onslaught of debris.
OUR CHOICE: 24-piece Deluxe Animals In The Barn Cardboard Floor Puzzle ($9.99)
That'll keep that puzzle addicted bastard in the family busy.

OUR CHOICE: Scott Paper Towel With Ridges,White Regular Roll ($6.99)
