So, another day has passed which means we're one day closer to my November release happy window. I mean games, you perverts, not a service rendered in a massage parlor so get your heads out of the gutter! ![]()
This last week is going to be tough on me I can already tell.
Let me give you an analogy that all you men will understand and women could learn a thing or two from.
Guys, do you know when you and your lady are going out for the night in which you have to dress nicely? Of course you do.
Now, you know what happens when you're completely dressed and ready to go and just waiting on your prettier half to get finished? You're sitting there trying to pass the time but can't get into anything too involved because you're leaving any minute. So, you basically write off your first 15 choices of things to pass the time and settle on something you would not do otherwise. Read your girlfriend's Cosmo. Straighten up the coffee table. Empty the ashtray.
This sucks! You can't do anything you really want to do because you're out the door as soon as she finishes in the bathroom so you're stuck trying to pass a relative small amount of time doing stuff that you don't care to do. It's agony.
This is where I'm at now. Any minute (7 days from now) my girlfriend (MW2) will be ready (released) and I'm ready to go. The problem is that I can't get into any new games because I won't finish them. I don't want to play my old games because all I can think about is how great MW2 is going to be.
Seeing as how 7 days is a little more time than the 35 minutes you spend waiting for your girl to be ready (even though she said she only needed 5) so I've decided to get my read on.
Last night I read the first volume of the Sandman graphic novel and it was awesome! It was a little slow getting going but once it did it was quite good. I wholeheartedly recommend this series to anyone into graphic novels... its great.
The bad news was the I breezed through the first volume in about 2 hours thus leaving me still 7+ days to kill until MW2. After I picked it up and put it down I decided to read a book that I bought my gf a few months ago but she never got into... "The Strain" by Guillermo del Toro and some other guy.
So far so good but I just hope that I can stretch this one book out into a week so that by the time I'm finished it will be late Monday night and I'll be in line at my local Gamestop waiting to get my hands on MW2.
Still trudging though RE5 and I feel kinda bad. Had this game come along at any other point in my life I'm sure that I would be all about it. However, since I'm forcing myself to play it as a way of killing time until MW2 it just feels like a chore. Plus, I'm more than half way though so my time with it is coming to a close. Once I finish it (if I ever do) it will go back to Gamestop for trade.
Expect blogs like this for the next seven days and hopefully they won't get too sad and pathetic but if they do at least you can watch me slowly go insane for your entertainment... god, I love my readers.
Take care and happy gaming!
