"Who am I, Brennan?"

"Who am I?"

The great question that plagues us all from time to time as we trek through life's maze of uncertainty hoping to find answers that reveal our true place in this world and attempt to quench the age old thirst for "why?"...and something we like to know when we play Star Wars Battlefront II on the Xbox. Especially for E.

We play the split screen. Two players at a time. Sure, this version of the game offers up to 4 players at once, but that makes each individual field of play too small to properly give the game a "go." So, split screen it is...

Important to note that E - while a superstar with the Legos - has yet to master the art of video gaming. As such, even though he loves to "play," he never really "plays." We tell him he does to make him happy and to alleviate the frustration of the other kiddos who play along with him as he continues to run his guys headlong into a wall, jamming the screens or otherwise rendering his dude a not-so-"got your back"-worthy helper outer.

So, he has a controller - the unused third one - but we usually tell him he's playing as one of the other boys' dudes. Makes him happy. Makes everyone happy. The only thing...

                                    "Brennan, who am I?"

  "Brennannnnnnnn....who am I?!!"

                                                "Who am I, Brennan?"

Since he doesn't have clear control of the player on the screen, he constantly needs to know who he is. Once you tell him, "You're Luke Skywalker," he's tip top. 'Cause Luke is his favorite dude. But don't tell him he's Chewbacca...he doesn't like being Chewbacca.
