Rock Band 2

Rock Band 2 finally came out. It's funny because I just heard they were making one a couple weeks ago. I never heard a definite release date either. So I called up Gamestop and asked when it came out. They said oh, it came out yesterday. Good timing. After some quick searching around I found a copy that wasn't sold out already and ran across town on my lunch break to pick it up. I LOVE the new game. It's got so many more songs I love and so many new features. I'll have to tell more about them later.

Like a Kid on Christmas

I'm now 24 years old. I hold a regular 9-5 job where I handle very big responsibilities. I have my own house and I pay my own bills. Yet I still feel like a kid on Christmas as I install my new Spore game. As funny as it sounds I'm really excited. I've been waiting for this game since I learned about its development two or three years ago. I always wanted a game like this and now it's finally in my CD drive on its way to completing an install. I guess I should go get breakfast before it hits noon.

Spore Care Bears

So on my first day of Spore I started with a totally unoriginal creature. I made a pink, fuzzy, cute and cuddly care bear creature. You get to structure your creature and customize it with parts to make it look a certain way, and I think I did a pretty good job with the likeness. You can also customize the behavior and traits of your creature based on how you use them...

So I made a race of ferocious carnivore care bears. I ran around the whole planet in packs ravenously devouring anything that moved and was unfortunate enough to cross my path. Soon the care bears will take over the planet and build up a mighty civilization bent on destruction of the universe. Oh I love games like this so much.

Spore

Spore finally came out today. While I'm installing it, I'm writing about it to curb my excitement. It's probably the most complex and innovative computer game to date. It allows you to take a single-celled organism and slowly evolve it into more and more complex forms. When you have a fully evolved intelligent organism, you get to create a tribal society. When your civilization grows even more, you can take over the whole planet and build massive cities and technologies. When that's done, you can launch into space and conquer the universe. It's so immersive and huge. I hope I don't get too addicted.
