Gears of War.

Ok, so there are three people who normally read this. Brian.....I think the content of this Live Journal will only interest you......Unless Chels and Cass have a new found interest in video games. I highly doubt that.

Ok. So I just finished playing 3 hours straight of video games with the doctor. First of all, a recap. Hes the only one in the house that curses, as much as I do. He is the only Indian guy for miles. And he loves video games and has the same sense of sick twisted humour I have. So, naturally makes amazing company for video game playing.

The man bought an XBOX 360.....amazing. Further, Gears of War just got released today, and he had it on preorder. I went for a run....outside, its like 12 degrees here.

Cool breeze, slightly chilly but not. I had a great run around a quarter of the city......yea something with my lung is still messed up....I should probably get it checked out....anyway, he pulls in to the drive way in his black audi (amazing car) and gets out and says hi. I am kind of winded and try to respond, barely getting the words past saliva and blood (bit the inside of my mouth.) He has this giant smile on his face, and holds up an EB bag. "Know what this is?" A video game of sorts.....Hes like, "just not any video game.....its gears of war." (Brian if you are reading this.....watch the trailer.....holy shit) So, I go upstairs, clean myself up, and get clean my room a bit.

Side story.

Somehow, all three of the Stooges (Amar, Andrew, Aniruddh) living upstairs, got into a conversation about Ali G, then politics, then.....religion (oh how taboo we are) then lord of the rings.

Amar: "Oh, fuck guys, I got a fucking great story. So, theres this male nurse right (Ani starts laughing), and hes wearing a replica ring on his neck (Ani starts laughing even harder), and I was doing a colonoscopy at the time. (ani cant breathe crumples to the floor, misses the rest of the story)"

back to the point.

So, eventually hes like yo playa, lets play this shit. How could I refuse (knowing what it was, and .....sadly knowing I had shit load of Nav to study too)

The game comes on. The graphics.....absolutely stunning, gorgeous detail within the intro.

I thought this was just the intro video at first.......it aint, thats in game graphics motherfucker. Cause seamless, couldnt tell where the intro ended and where the game began.

The muliplayer is amazing, there are two characters, and the gamplay with two player is intense, blood, monsters....chainsaw at the end of your rifle.......

Then there was this huge monster like thing, called the Beserker...couldnt be killed by regular weaponary.....only this satellite laser.....so we had to get this thing outside. basically we were in a tomb, and we had to let this 8 foot monster charge at us and duck out of the way at the last second so he would smash a weak spot in the walls. we had to do this 4 times.......its scary man...with all the detail they put into video games these days.....got my heart racing.

so....im still a bit rattled......See, I think thats how you know when your getting too old for video games.....when the games start to become too intense.......BAHAHAH too intense for me....nothings too intense for me. (shut up oldie)

.......how can we ever forget that we are remembering those who gave thier lives.......I mean, I stab myself on my poppy utleast twice a day....
