When you play most games you are just blindly going in without thinking. Then Max Payne gets his head blown off (say). You say, "Ugh." and reload it. Then you get killed 5 more times. It is a mindless operation and you totally lose the feel of the story in a real setting. I mean really in real life he'd be dead! He can't rewind.

Ahh, I loved Outrun. I played the hell out of that game on Sega Genesis. I bought OutRun Online Arcade on Xbox Live Arcade. Unfortunatley, the game was removed from the PlayStation Network in October 2010 and was removed from the Xbox Live Arcade in December 2011. Sega explained that the removal of the title was due to "the expiry of the contract with Ferrari." But I still love playing it.

Things at times seem to be moving very slowly. You think to just get an old game will be easy but it isn't. There's this barrier we've never seen before. A wall in which there's a fantasy that has a reality to it. You or I am not by instinct to copy into this marker. We know that and have been taught that in fantasy we do not achieve realistic goals.

A computer was just dead hardware that didn't do much. Video games were created by ways not thought possible to control a video. Usually it is just a recording or a live signal. In a live signal you are in a way controlling reality.

So now you have a dimension of time; past, present and the future. The goal here is to ALWAYS think about the future and nothing else. That IS why we even exist at all because somebody ignored the past and just thought about us.

"Silent Hill". As in "SH1", not "Downpour". It's easy to play letdown after letdown of sequals and wonder why a game series got to be legendary or long-standing. Always nice to go back where it started and get a refresher as to why. It's not as the scariest of the series (That'd be "SH2", IMO.), the most intense (That'd be "Shattered Memories", IMO. Easily the best "SH" game since "SH2".), or the best (again, "SH2") but man, it's a great game.

I am frantically trying to get through the Mass Effect series as quickly as possible while placating my completionist tendencies. It takes forever to get through ME1 alone trying to everything 100%, but my OCD personality would not take any compromises.... Anyway, I wouldn't have to go through this mess if my 360 hadn't gotten RROD two weeks before ME3 came out and I lost all my Shepards. I'm stubborn in that I refuse to play without an import. So, I just moved over to PC.

I'm also playing Borderlands for the first time. It's pretty fun, but to get out of the pattern of shooters, I'm also preparing to re-buy Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood so I can get through that and Revelations before AC3 comes out. I'm kinda sad that my video game boyfriend won't be in that one though.... Maybe I'll like Connor, who knows?

Don't give up on Borderlands just yet! You have to get to about level 30 or 40 (Playthrough #2) in Borderlands before it really becomes a challenge. The DLC is really worth it too, as General Knoxx's Armory really cranks the difficulty to 11. In my opinion, Borderlands is the most fun with other people; enemies scale in difficulty based on the number of players, and the loot is better too. It's strange that Borderlands is one of those games that never really gets old due to the ridiculous fun factor and the challenge presented by some insanely tough enemies. Lots of fond memories with that game.

Borderlands was interesting the first time through and slightly more fun with friends, but I can't see myself recommending it. If I want to spend my timing killing things looking for loot I had way more fun doing that in Diablo 2.

And I hate all of Borderlands' DLC. I thought getting the GotY edition would be nice but after trying them I can't see how anyone plays through them.

What I'm currently playing:
DotA 2

A friend gave me a code so I've been playing that, but I'm still trying to figure the game out (and therefore inexperienced) so I'd like to play with him against other humans instead of bots but the matchmaking puts us with other players his skill level. I ended up dying so many times I probably got reported for deliberately dying for the benefit of the other team.

So now I'm back to playing with bots and trying out new heroes so I know how to use more of them. There are so many. D:

Default new games

I'm getting some new games (new to me anyway). 'Clive Barker's: Jericho, Bayonetta, Condemned: Criminal Origins, Saint's Row 1&2'... I have 'CCO2' and have now become locked in this story to play the first. Been having some probs on eBay because sometimes they totally change their minds and don't send them!

There is still quite a collection out there! I have tried to get '25 to Life' but my brother was reading reviews and they said like:"Worst game ever etc. " Lol. So now he won't get it. He said,"..because they badmouthed it kinda makes me WANT it!" Lol! He he. 'Riot Response' I've tried to get.

Borderlands, Fallout, Gears of war, Left4dead, Dead Space, etc.. I've seen for sale a million times but my interest is never peaked. Hehe, enjoy.

(I keep babbling below

My mother is into murder mysteries and those are an easy sale for me to get. She is ecstatic about 'L.A NOIRE'. She says about BLACK DAHLIA murder cases were really true etc. Although a bit morbid. She got me 'LAW N' ORDER: CRIMINAL INTENT' because she likes that show. A bit gross! If you know anything like that I could tell her to get it for me. Although I'm not a fan of 'CSI' Ugghh!

Skyrim: They don't really expect people to get 100% on this game, right? Right?

I played Morrow Wind WAY back when. I thought it sucked because all you do is read half the time and figure out complicated things. So I'm not really opt to go buy another Elder Scrolls. Sometimes too science fictitious stuff is bad for me. I got to a giant bug and said "forget it". I like to keep in touch (somewhat) with reality. It's just that they're sucking at making good games and graphics that they have to throw in this garbage to just throw everybody off.

Skate games are so old but 'Skate 2' is somewhat hilarious. You try to have to flip the right thumb-stick to do something. You hit a curb or something and *SPLAT. It's not like Tony games where you just push B and do a perfect 900. You have to do practically everything or you literally break your bones. Ha ha *CRUNCH! I got to a point where everything just becomes impossible.

In the 1st 'Skate' it shows the skater get hit by a bus. Ha ha *THUMP. Then the whole thing is about getting "rehabilitation" which is kinda morbid.

I thought one of the points of Skyrim was that you always had something to do and could never complete it 100%. Sure, you could do all the main quests but it would generate tons of side quests so you always had something to do. That was my understanding anyway. :/

Anyhoo, playing a lot of Dota 2 lately. Hadn't played a game like it before so it was kind of fun to learn something completely new.
