GOD RUSH IS AWESOME!

so 'nother post before sleep i gotta paint in the mornin.

this is going to be about video games im currently playing (or games i attempt to play)
theres a lot of them because im not one of those people who play one games until its finished (very few exceptions to this rule see: god of war, beat it in two sittings, havn't touched it since)

so ill start with the ones that are taking up most of my time.

1. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (Xbox 360)
This game is old like, 2006 old so im not going to spend any time on how awesome the game is. But it still kicks ass, This was one of the first games i bought when i got a 360, and i played it a little bit, but then gave it up (and traded it in) in favor of newer games (COD, ect) so when i bought it again it sat around for quite a while, i started a decent character but then gave it up again. So after i beat Metal Gear Sold 4, i was looking for another game that i could really dive into, so i picked up Oblivion again, and did i ever dive into it. Ive been playing it literally for weeks and haven't even scratched the surface of the main quest. Ive been kickin ass on a lot of side quests, i dont know how long it'll take to finally beat it but im looking forward to it, it'll be a real accomplishment due to the crazy scope of this game.

2. Mafia II (PC)
Due to the fact that I got a wicked laptop for christmas last year i started up on PC games again, which is a challenge if your like me and dont see the big deal about games like World of Warcraft. I picked this little gem up and was immediately impressed by the visuals (due to wicked PC) but im sure it looks good on PS3 or Xbox as well. Mafia II is essentially a clone of Grand theft Auto set in gangster style 1945-1950s including era cars (not actual licensed cars but clones) and weapons (tommy gun, ect). The atmosphere of the era is easily the best part, within the first hour of play time i was running around snowy streets in a white suit, matching trench coat and one of those cool hats they wore, setting out to do a "hit" on some poor lad. Its a game im really looking forward to getting more into, and i hope it doesn't go the way Grand Theft Auto games go for me, which is just sitting around because i get bored of them easily.

3. Starcraft II (PC)
The Second installment of Blizzards huge real time strategy game  was about 10 years in the making, and im confident enough to say it was worth the wait. After blowing through the single player campaign pretty quickly i got down to what makes Starcraft awesome, the muli-player. while rather simple (four people on a map, try to kill everything that's not you or a ally) the gameplay is nuts, there is a need for real skill and strategy in order to win, so im pretty terrible at it (i find a pretty hefty learning curve) i still love it, its the thrill of taking over someones base, or fending off an attack you never think will end. It'll keep me coming back im sure.

4. Call Of Duty: Modern warfare 2 (Xbox 360)
This game is easily one of the most recognized games going, so this will be short. I love this game, simply for the online play. I mean yeah there are some idiots and dicks just there to bitch people out, but its still a fun play, match after match things change. MW2 is easily one of the best shooters out there (because i hate Halo, im sorry i just dont get why that game stays popular, i never liked it) so looking for hours upon hours of game to play? MW2, hit it up
