Addicted to video games

Last night I beat the newly released Gears of War video game. I had only rented it Sunday evening. I’m not bragging. Okay, maybe a little, but mostly I’m complaining. It was way to short. However, it was amazing and it has the often neglected two player cooperation feature. Which I’m sure would be awesome since so much of the game is ducking for cover and laying down suppressing fire so teammates can flank the enemy. Oh man, I wish I had friends down here to play Xbox with. It reminds me of the hours Bourke and I spent at the apartment playing Halo. Or the afternoon we raced a full length NASCAR race, running to the Pepsi machine in the hallway or to the bathroom during our pit stops. Or Casey and I cramming in as many NBA Jams games into a lunch hour as possible. Or the long standing reign of the gladiator chariot raceing team Johnamus-Edimus-Maximus. Or shooting Zombies with my dad. Good times. Somebody come down here and play Gears of War with me.

Troddlers, dude... Troddlers.


My roommate has beaten the game 3 times since he bought it a week ago. I know what you're saying, he's got no life. That's true, but also, he really likes video games and this one was short.


Way too short. But still awesome.


The Amazing Johnathan has a new special on saturday... I'm so excited!
