Head long
March 2nd, 2008Well I’ve jumped head long into the world of gaming again. I’ve not played any video games in heavy amount since early years of college. Back then it was Duke Nukem 3D, Hexen, Quake2, and my favorite StarCraft. Soon there after I built my own computer power house and it was the days of Counter Strike, Diablo2, and Age of Empires. It was back when networking was a black art that most people didn’t do. I remember when we stepped up and got NIC’s in our pc’s. Then we setup a small LAN there in the dorms between like 30 computers with our cables running though closets and hallways. Oh the memories.
Well a couple weeks ago I finally bought an Xbox360. I’m always a few years behind the curve. I bought a PS2 like years and years after it came out, same now with this 360. Now I find myself once again enjoying games and playing probably way too much. Xbox Live and its online system makes it too easy and nice to play online, which is basicly the only way I’ve been playing. Its even a way some of my friends and myself are able to do stuff on a semi regular basis. So…I do feel a bit guilty now cause it seems its all I do now that I get home. I have hours and hours of recorded shows on the DVR I need to watch, but just dont want to. If its not one of the 4 or 5 shows I really enjoy they just sit there taking up space to be watched in my spare time.
Be it good or bad…Im back into gaming.
