frivolity

In my quest to discover the things that I’m good at, I decided to spend time in gaming again. I had a phase wherein  I abstained from playing games because I had the notion that it was just wasting my life. Back in 2008, I was jobless (by choice) and I spent the whole year playing World of Warcraft. Of course after that year, I was like “what the hell happened?” But now, when I think about it, I can consider that as one of my happiest years – alongside my binge-drinking and PS-playing years in college. I didn’t have lots of money but I was having fun.

Yeah, I know, still, everything needs to be taken in moderation. I wish I have more time for playing games.

You must be a nerd to understand this part.

I’m now officially a fan of the Uncharted series of games for the PS3. I just spent my 5 days of medical leave (courtesy of my literally twisted spine) playing Uncharted 2: Among Thieves and I think I may want to spend some more VLs for finishing the game in ‘crushing hard’ mode. It’s THAT effing good.

The intro alone was EPIC. I was almost pounding on the controls just to get Drake (the protagonist) to jump away from the falling rock – which I later figured out was beyond the player’s control.

 

My favorite part was when those mutated bluish monsters were terrorizing the hell out of Drake, Chloe and Elena late in the game. It took me like almost 50 tries just to kill one of them in hard mode. Haha… loser.
