I so geeked out on guitar hero this weekend, oh man

 Filed under: Gadgets, games — beerorkid @ Apr 7th, 2008

Just zoned out on the couch trying to get higher scores on songs I had already beaten till late into the morning. I finally look at the clock and see it is 3 AM. Just a few more songs…… That would be my Friday and Saturday nights (lame). Then the GH dreams. Red, red, green, green, green, yellow, green… It was haunting me. I found myself listening to music going red, red, yellow,…. it was kinda spooky. Really strange was reading the paper in the morning I kept a beat going with each word, hard to explain but it finallt sunk in how that game was corrupting me.

I set the controller down and did not touch it Sunday.

  3. I tried playing for the first time this weekend. It was fun, and I did pretty good for my first attempt. It was weird playing songs that I know how to play on a real guitar, but in GH3, because it’s fundamentally different and took a bit of getting used to.

    I’m with you on the video game dreams, I used to have that problem a lot when I was a kid. And when this Tetris-clone called Quinn came out on the Mac (it’s a very nice looking game) I got bored one day and played for a couple of hours til I got tired. Then I’d shut my eyes and just see falling bricks and move them with my mind. It sucked.

  • Meh.....

A person with ubuntu is open and available to others, affirming of others, does not feel threatened that others are able and good, for he or she has a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that he or she belongs in a greater whole and is diminished when others are humiliated or diminished, when others are tortured or oppressed.
