Something old...Something new....

Okay so taking a quick break from the games I've finished multiple times I decided to go back in time a little bit to complete a game I started but never finished, Jade Empire on Xbox. Another Bioware creation, it's like KOTOR but Asian. Pretty fun stuff. I needed something to play on the couch because all this time on the computer is killing my back!

We also just picked up Heavy Rain for Jason's birthday. This is a very cool interactive drama that I suggest is for adults only. It's about 4 people involved in tracking down a serial killer who preys on children. There is some disturbing imagery and themes in this game. It's very engrossing though and the choices you make affect the entire outcome. If you die as a character, that character is truly dead and it becomes part of the story itself. Watching Jason play it has been like watching a movie unfold...and yes I did have trouble sleeping the first night after starting it. Kept dreaming someone was breaking into my house while I was home alone at night. Terrific game though, I can't wait to see more!

Well it's been a while since I posted.... I'm in the middle of 4th playthroughs of both Dragon Age and Mass Effect 2, have a Fallout 3 going and have been playing Sims 3 again. So much for sticking with one game!

Mass Effect 2 is nearly done then I need to play it again on Insanity for the medal and to remain faithful to my first love, Kaiden. lol Curious to see how that plays out when ME3 comes out.

I'm sure I'll get back into Fallout eventually. I just don't like games that are quite that open. Or I want to not be forced to run around quite so much.

Sims 3 has been enjoyable though. Just no hassle, no stress...get to play God for a while. My Sims just started a family and the little girl became a toddler yesterday. Fun stuff. It's nice to be able to control someone's life when your own feels out of control at times. lol
