I’ll have to check it out, because everyone I know has had a similar reaction to yours.

Better. Basically, Mass Effect 2 has changed the way the human race perceives the world and reality itself, and has defined our generation.

Slight exaggeration there, but it is a damn good game. I wasn’t expecting much, because I wasn’t blown away by Mass Effect 1 (and they really burned me with how much I was anticipating the first one), so when ME2 came out, I was like, “Meh, I’ll try it.” Obviously, it destroyed me.

It’s probably going to end up on my Top 5 games of all time. Easily a 9 out of a 10.

I’m with you – doing that is a blast. I love it when I’m so fired up about a game that it really bums me out when I have to eat or sleep instead of play it. I’m just not living a sustainable lifestyle right now. If I can find a way to bring in a steady paycheck, maintain all of my relationships and play games until I can’t see straight, I will be doing it. Until then, it’s weeks of doing other stuff and then gaming until I go crosseyed on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

I’ve heard from everyone that Mass Effect 2 is amazing. Is it as good as everyone says?

You couldn’t see me, but I just finished standing up and applauding. Now, I’m wiping a tear away.

Bioshock 2 came out yesterday, and Mass Effect 2 a week before that (only a week? Felt like a lifetime ago). I skipped class for the entire week last week, forgoing things like food, and sleep, and bathing, and gamed pretty fucking hard. I can’t remember the last time I gamed that hard. It got to the point where it felt like torture to go to bed instead of getting to play until I fainted and collapsed.

Of course, I wholly endorse such a behavior, but that’s just because that’s all I have to live for. If you’re trying to accomplish anything, then gaming may get in the way, but it’s still good times. Oddly, I have a frothing-at-the-mouth passionate hatred for Civilization, perhaps the only person on the planet to have such a mindset. Glad to hear you’re enjoying the gaming – an angel has gotten their wings.

I’m liking it a lot. Thanks for letting me have it. My favorite part is that one of the previous owners underlined their favorite parts, which kind of cracks me up.

How you liking “Fargo Rock City”?

Also, this seems germane to your new mission:
