Suxor Reason #4 New Game Addiction

Suxor Reason #4  New Game Addiction

I’ll admit it. I have this thing about new games. I love them…. I love the way they feel ….. I love the way the smell…. I love cracking them open and installing them and reading the manual… Yeah – I actually read the manuals. The first time you weave your way through a new interface or game is sweet. My wife is extremely jealous of that other woman (The New Game).

The gaming industry loves guys like me. We drive the industry. It’s true! We have to have the newest game, the newest console, the newest gaming PC. In the 60’s it was the space program that drove technology. Since the invention of the PC and the console – it has been me and others like me that have pushed technology to new heights. I’m not kidding – I should get some of kind of reward from mankind for making this world a technological wonderland.

The reason I suck at games is I never seem to stay on one game long enough to master it anymore. I bought the X-box 360 in a bundle from gamestop and it came with 6 games!. That nearly killed me. How do you play one when another is calling you……. OMG then Ghost Recon comes out. Give me a break! In any event – I rarely play a game long enough to truly master it and move from suckdom to competence, forget l33tness!

Then there is the problem with seasonal suckitude. The Christmas season for video games and console releases! There is no way to keep up with the things that come out during this season. My good old standby games disappear in the back of the game cabinet while one after another new one appears and occupies my psyche for an undetermined period.

New games = perpetual suckitude…. You can quote me on that one !
