Game Diary Day 4: I Believe

diary-believeinharvey.jpg

As many of you know, I try to be as involved in politics as I can, attending speeches and showing my support for my candidate of choice. Today I attended a political rally for Harvey Dent, who is looking to clean up Gotham. Personally I agree with his core values, see eye to eye on most issues (crime prevention, dual personalities) and definitely think he'd be a welcome change in this world of two-faced politicians. Besides attending the rally down at Pike's Place today, I'm going to be playing...

Rock Band - Do I even need to mention playing Rock Band anymore? It's basically every day. The beauty is that I can play one or two songs, be satisified and go on to something else. With Rock Band, every song I play feels like I am earning experience points. Practicing for the big day when I can live my rock dream. My rock dream meaning the day when I can finally say "I got all the achievements in Rock Band".

Mass Effect - I'm in the mood for a nice sit-down RPG, so I think it's time to dust off the ol' Mass Effect and continue progressing. I'm not sure if I should plunk down the points for the DLC quite yet, as everything is still pretty new to me in the game. The only thing I think that has been keeping me back is in trying to make the main character resemble myself I ended up creating a hideous freak monster. That is to say he is ugly. I should have stuck with the default face. Man, for someone who always plays down how important aesthetics are in games, that seems to be a big issue for me. I am a total hypocrite.

Nanostray 2 - Usually I tend to ignore DS shovelware that gets sent to me, but I vaguely remember enjoying the first Nanostray so I popped it in last night and man. It's gorgeous. Expect a full review in a few days.
