Here were our top games played in the archive for the month of January. Once again, a board game makes the list, along with the game that no one can seem to agree on how to pronounce, BlazBlue.

This week, the archive received a donation that was a special treat, a glimpse into our local video game industry from almost a decade ago: Alter Echo.Alter Echo was the last game developed by an Ann Arbor-based company called Outrage Entertainment, which developed games in Ann Arbor from about 1997-2004. And the generous donor of said game? None other than one of the testers of Alter Echo, Tod Schlegelmilch.The game isn't yet available for play, but keep searching Mirlyn to stay up to date on its status. I'm sure it will be a game well worth checking out!

After a long wait and many, many inquiries, it's finally here. Look at the cover - even Link is excited! So take some time and check it out this week.

Coming soon to a UM Computer & Video Game Archive near you... The CAVE EVIL Limited Edition board game!

Here are the top 10 games played in the archive during the month of December. A few new games quickly rise to the top, and FIFA makes an appearance on both Xbox 360 and PS3. We also have a board game on the list, showing the slow rise in popularity of our non-electronic collection.

We will be closed for the rest of the holidays and plan on resuming our normal hours on the first day of classes next year, January 4th.Have a great break!

Yes, we finally have the CVGA copy of Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (for Xbox 360).

Here are our top 10 games played in the archive for the month of November.Our newer Batman and Gears of War games quickly rise in the ranks, with a few familiar favorites also making an appearance.

For those who are interested in working at the archive next semester, we now have one more job opening! If you already applied in August/September, feel free to apply again. It may be that your Winter term schedule is more compatible with our needs.

The Computer & Video Game Archive will be open today from 11:30am-9pm, with an English 125 class taking place in the archive in the morning from 10:00-11:30am. We will be closed from Wednesday - Sunday for the Thanksgiving holiday, and will resume our hours on Monday, Nov. 28th. Happy Thanksgiving!
