Honestly, I've never been that big of a Halo fan. I love my 360 (primarily for downloadable titles), but Halo really never did anything for me. However, I did like the Halo 3 teaser. The 'Halo Reach' trailer didn't really do much for me. Since I haven't been steeped in Halo lore myself, I probably didn't get what others got out of it. Probably. I don't know.
 
I will say that I think that Blizzard makes really great trailers. The Wrath of the Lich King trailer was pretty fantastic. I've been trying to think of other trailers that grabbed me, but I really can't think of anything. The only other thing that comes to mind was the Gears of War trailer with the "Mad World" song from Donnie Darko. That's only because of the song though. 
 
Also, I recall seeing the trailer for Muscle March for WiiWare. Is that a trailer or a commercial? Usually, trailers have a big reveal and it's a huge deal. Muscle March was just something I saw on YouTube earlier this year. Would you consider that a trailer? If so, the Muscle March developers win the "Best Trailer Makers" award.

This is a personal favorite of mine. I've actually heard that the game is pretty good as well.

Well shit. I had to format my hard drive two days ago so I don't have accurate numbers. Since I did the whole formatting thing on Thursday, I've been here 148 times. In two days. Wow.

You just blew my damn mind. Although, I did kinda turn my brain off while playing the single player. But DAMN! You just blew all kinda holes in the whole plot of that game. I'm gonna go play some Rogue Warrior now.

I'm unemployed and I have to write a cover letter. I've been putting this off for a few days now because I can't write for shit. One of the job requirements is "excellent written and oral communication skills." I have neither. So I've been putting that off. I also have two websites that I'm supposed to be working on for friends, but I've been putting that off as well.
 
In conclusion, I have no idea what to tell you. I think that there have been some great suggestions so far, but I'd have to say that the thing that works best for me is to force yourself to do whatever it is you are supposed to be doing for 15 minutes. This has worked for me in the past on many occasions. Whatever you're trying to do, just force yourself to do it for 15 minutes. Pretty soon you'll be "in the zone" and you won't be able to stop. I haven't tried this yet because I've been too busy lurking on the Giant Bomb forums for the past few hours. I think I'm going to go get a drink now and plan the rest of my day. 2pm isn't too early to start drinking is it?

I've played all of those except for Batman, and I have to say Fallout 3. I sunk 80 hours into that game and I always wanted to play it again just to see what happens when you set off the bomb in Megaton. Really great game. L4D2 is awesome as well. Batman wouldn't run on my computer because my computer is a piece of crap.
 
Seriously, if you think that Fallout 3 is a game that you would enjoy, it probably is. You should get that. Lots of playability. Good times.

With all of this talk concerning Street Fighter and soundtracks, I now have the Indestructible song from Street Fighter IV stuck in my head. Thanks guys!
 
As far as soundtracks that I enjoy listening to, I'd have to go with Katamari Damacy. I finished the game in no time flat and never really had any desire to play it again - except for those rare occasions when someone was over who had not yet experienced it - but I still enjoy listening to the soundtrack every once in a while. Good stuff. The Ouendan soundtrack had some great songs as well. Of course, it would be an error if I didn't mention Mega Man 2 and Contra. Can't believe I almost forgot those.

Yeah, there's totally a lot of stuff on sale right now for the holidays, but don't forget XBLA. There's a slew of cool stuff on there for the taking.

" As well as Jack Black, Enemy of the State features a TurboExpres, the portable TurboGrafx machine. Not only that, but it misrepresents it as a device that can store and play recorded video footage. Yay Hollywood! "

Damnit! I came here to post about two things: the Doom arcade machine in Grosse Point Blank, and the TurboExpress Portable in Enemy of the State. You got them both. Curses! 
 
I honestly can't think of anything else right now. I think I remember hearing something about a Xbox 360 console in Transformers that transforms into a Decepticon. Can anyone verify this? I'm trying to Google "Xbox 360" and "Transformers", and I'm having no luck with images from the movie.
 
EDIT: I am, of course, referring to the Michael Bay film. I doubt that it needed any clarification, but you never know.

I'm of the opinion that you should call yourself whatever you like. If people don't like it then they can go DIAF.
 
However, if you must change it, I would suggest SwordLord. I find it amusing for some reason.
