The only problem is that my gaming log is now getting backed up. I recently gave away Assassins Creed and Bioshock to a friend so he can have some fun with it. Part of me never wants to let go of my games and I know for a fact I will own them again when they hit the bargain bins. Its just when do I have the time to sit down and go thru my games.
I think in a way I blame World of Warcraft on the PC. The community of gamers from all over the world is something else I still have not found to this date. I remember the nights when I would have logged on as soon as I got home, say around 8:00pm and would be on it till around 2-3am in the morning. Then wake up and login right before I left work to see what I missed.
It really was the community of players that makes it unforgettable. In this world so many people that share your same interest the same idea of playing together. Alot of the times I would never even play anything in the game but just sit around and talk with everyone on and mind you that we are talking well over thousands of people being on and that is just in one world in the universe of WoW.
So why did I stop not to sure maybe I realize that I am just wasting to much of my life in the game. Or maybe I just reach the pinnacle of the gaming experience it had to offer that I just got bored when there wasn't anything else left to do in the game.
Well every now and then I do think about going back on but I just quickly realize that right now I do not have the patience anymore to play that game.
Right now I am beta testing a game similar to WoW called Runes of Magic but I know once the full game is released I will stop playing. I just do not want to get that absorbed into a game again.
So right now what am I playing? I think the question should be rephrased to what should I be playing!
Xbox 360
Burnout Paradise
Call of Duty: World at War
Dead Space
Devil May Cry 4
Fable 2
Fallout 3
Far Cry 2
Guitar Hero: Areosmith
Saints Row 2
Army of Two
Battlefield: Bad Company
Blue Dragon
Kane & Lynch: Dead Men
Mass Effect
Dark Sector
I know I am forgetting a couple games. Its not to say these games are bad games in fact its all the opposite these are probably the best games out right now. But to make time to play them all is killing me.
Oh yeah and I haven't included PC games that I have. The one thing I would have to say is that I at least play one game until I am done with it. Who knows how long it is going to take me to go thru Mass Effect and Blue Dragon lol. On the plus side I know that I pretty much did not have to pay for these games since I am part of a trade community of gamers.
So what games are my bane you ask?
These are the ones that always pull me back in no matter what.
These are the few games that no matter what I can hop on my computer at any time and play thru with out having to relearn the button layout.
It also helps that I am still pretty good at playing these games lol.
