I have always loved playing video games. The thrill of winning and the annoyance of having to re due that level for the twentieth time. I love being apart of that imaginary world (Even though sometimes I i am apart of it for way to long). I learned how to play my first video game when I was four thanks to my good old uncle Bear. Ever since I first touched that controller, I felt like I had control over everything on the screen. Yes I know it sounds corny. But hey don’t knock it until you try it.

So what is it about video games that we love so much? I have yet to figure this out. Maybe it’s the sense of satisfaction. Or Maybe we use it to relieve stress (Yes i am serious).

I know some of you are probably already bored to tears. This may not be up your ally, but it’s one of my favorite subjects. Some of my favorite games are the rp ones. (for you mom rp means Role Play). The most addicting ones are harvest moon and Animal Crossing. Yes I am lame, but at least I’m not playing Nintendogs. I play Harvest Moon constantly. I consider it to be very addicting. The game is based in a small town. You take over a run down farm and your job is to start a life, raise animals, and start a family. I love that the game never ends. It keeps going and going until you finally get bored.

Harvest Moon is all soft and sweet. I do have to spice things up a bit and play some more violent games such as Battlefront and Twisted Metal. I have only played Halo once so I can’t say if it is one of my favorites. I enjoy tracking down my victims and destroying them. yes I know very morbid, but hey it gives me that enjoyment when I am morbidly bored.

Yes video games. Call me a nerd, dork, or just immature. But I don’t care. It’s one of my talents that I’m proud of. I have never met a game I couldn’t master. Although I have yet to meet my match. I’m still looking for someone who can take me down. But that’s not likely.
