(Think of “Girls, Girls, Girls” by Mötley Crüe)
So yeah, right now is a really good (or bad, depending on your point of view) time to be a gamer… At least a PC gamer that is. Screw those console heathens. There’s a glut of newly released games and about to be released games, and for me, it’s really kind of an overload.
First off, you’ve got Dragon Age: Origins, which isn’t really a new release, as it came out last November, but for me, it only came out a month ago when I returned from my deployment. I still haven’t finished it, and have two different characters that I’m playing through with at the moment. It’s not that it’s a bad game – I love the gameplay and the story – it’s just that other games keep getting in the way, mostly because of beta testing.
Speaking of beta testing, two new MMO’s just finished their beta testing stage and are about to be birthed out into the open market – Global Agenda, and Star Trek: Online. I had the opportunity to beta test both, and while they really have no fear of competition from each other on the open market, when it comes to me, well… I can only play one game at a time.
And trust me, this is a problem, because not only do I have all those to choose from, but Mass Effect 2 just released, and I can’t really justify playing it until I play through the original on the character that I want to carry over… But I’ve also been playing EVE Online lately, and have actual commitments in that game, especially since our corporation is currently at war.
I think I just need to take leave again…
