Something to chew over…
I’m the sort of person who specialises in over analysing things, particularly stuff that’s inherently ridiculous. Perhaps that’s why I find this comic from the xkcd archives so funny.
Back to uni tomorrow. Probably the best place for me. Well, except maybe here.
With Halo 3 already out in the US and about an hour away from launch over here, The Guardian’s games blog has made a few observations on the media coverage. It made me laugh, at any rate.
I’m getting really tempted by the 360 now. I’m the sort of person who’s interested in games but doesn’t play them too often, which can get annoying when I’m with better and more knowledgeable gamers and pretending to be really enthusiastic about a game I’ve never played. It doesn’t help I’m not a particularly good gamer either, but then again, games are supposed to be fun, right?
So anyway, I’m tempted. Though this could be a subconscious decision to eliminate that slightly guilty feeling I get when I claim I’m a hardcore gamer when I suspect I’m really just extremely casual.
