Yo. The names Joe! Ha ha, rhyming. Anywho. I am a rare breed of obsessive video gamer who gets obsessed with one game, play it for days (weeks if the game is good enough!), drain it of all it has to offer, then move on to the next game. There is usually a week of rest between video games, usually in which I fill with reading the lastest chapters and pages of various comics I read online. I will talk about comics too in this blog! So much diversity!
This type of gaming makes it so that video games such as Pokemon, World of Warcraft, Fallout 3/New Vegas, and many extensive games very valuable for me. There is so much material and things to do that I can just keep playing till I get bored! It makes me feel like a real gamer. Games such as Prototype and Assassin's Creed are very valuable as well for there is an extensive amount of things to do but there is a definite point in which they end and you have done all you can do. It makes it a rewarding experience!
This unfortunately makes it difficult to truly appreciate games such as Call of Duty or Crysis 2. There is such a linear set of events that you must accomplish with little wiggle room of your actions. It can take a few days at most to do all you can do on single player and nothing is particularly difficult to do. There is multiplayer which can take up a lot of time but it never really stops and honestly... I'm just not that good or have a good enough attention span for it! But I do play them, and enjoy them, but would never say they were my favorite games.
So yeah... I want to have some where to channel my ideas and opinions of video games while inserting some humor and brilliant insight on all things important in life.
