As ecstatic as I am for you re-reading Ender's Game, You really, really, have to read Speaker for the Dead, too!!!!!!! It's the second in the series, but Card wrote it as a stand alone novel, so you don't have to have read Ender's game in order to understand it, and actually, I think (if I remember correctly) that he actually wrote Speaker before Ender's Game or something like that.

And, Catcher in the Rye is excellent. Yet, may I recommend On the Road, by Jack Kerouac? I probably just butchered his last name as I'm typing too fast and don't have the energy to go back and check my spelling, but it's really, really, good too!

Either Norwegian Wood or Hard Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World. I'll pick up Speaker of the Dead after I finish Enders Game and when I'm taking Norwegian Wood back to the library.

Neo Contra's controls take some time to get used to. Time I ain't willing to spend.

The MGS3 demo was pretty good, but the camera popping into first-person mode when you root around in the grass is a little annoying. Also, I'm still not used to being all stealthy without the radar.

I don't mind not having the radar, it really makes you pay more attention to things, look around more, etc. The thermal goggles are your friend. The hiding spots are pretty cool though, with the hollowed out logs and stuff. The first-person crawling mode is really annoying, I want to actually see where I am lying down at so to make sure my ass isn't sticking out of a clump of grass.
