Day 3 of Modern Warfare 2 deprevation. I shouldn't be alive.

Omigod. It's been 3 days since the IW_NET error message first popped up. It's uncurable I tell you. We're DOOMED. Abandon your posts, abandon your homes, abandon all hope!

I'm only half serious, lol. Only Kua and I are seriously effected. And I've got Mass Effect 2, which is turning out to be one of the better Role-Playing Games out there. Unlike Dragon Age, which I still think was pretty lame.

I dunno, maybe it's because I keep comparing games to other games who I think have reached a sorta peak. When there's a game involving sword hack & slash, I compare it to the combat system in Dark Messiah of Might and Magic:

And if it's a third person shooter, I compare it to Gears of War 2. Which was perfect:

(There are chainsaws attached to those guns)


Mass Effect 2 is pretty good, story wise. It's not the sort of story you can digest by lying down and shooting aliens in the face. You have to participate, and make your own decisions. And there's actual feedback.

That's it. All I've gotten done these past few days is games.
