Gaming Gone WILD! =P

In my opinion, video games are honestly the greatest invention in entertainment history. =)
Video games have exponentially increased in value and desirability with the coming of the new century. With the invention of new and better software you would expect as much though.

I think the reason that so many people are becoming bigger gamers these days are because of the new and vast variety of video games out there. Before there were only platform games, from those platform games lead to the birth of RPG’s (Role Play Games) and FPS’ (First Person Shooters). Then from there with the birth of the new century came the rising of the many different game genres there are today. People look negatively at video games and just see them as a waste of young people’s time. This statement is a very biased and uninformed one. There are many video games out there that help to improve how quickly your mind works or teach you interesting fact and answers to many interesting question. Games such as Big Brain Academy, Brain Training, Dr. Brain, and Chessmaster are just some of the many games that help try to improve how well you think or improve certain skills.

Even though video games are great, there is a time when even I have to put down the controller and pick up some units. At times its really hard to after playing a great game, especially when my mind makes up my great excuses such as: I’ll do it later; it’s not that important; this is WAY cooler; and of course, just a bit longer. I play video games quite often and would say I’m quite informed about the gaming world, so I know exactly which games to play so I don’t end up wasting my time playing rubbish games. =P

Wii is for soft-core/casual gamers.
PS3 is more for average gamers.
360 is for average to hardcore serious gamers, and of course I have access to all three systems. :D
I would say that 360 has the best line up of games at their disposal. With big franchise name such as Halo, Gears of War, Fable, and many more it’ll be hard for PS3 to catch up with their game deficit. PS3 only has a few bigger names like Final Fantasy, God of War, and Metal gear solid. Wii isn’t even close to a reasonable amount of good games because all they have is the “Mario Branded” games to work with. However, Wii has a few exceptional games on their side, such as Zelda: Twilight Princess, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and Metriod is alright.


To all the gamers out there: GET AT ME! =D kiiding!

The Campaign Trail =)

When I first saw the second commercial I was very confused. =\

I hadn't seen the first commercial and wasn't sure what I was supposed to be looking at. I then went on to youtube.com and saw the first video and it started to make more sence. =)

When I found out more about what this commercial was supposed to be conveying I was quite intrigued. I thought it was very intelligent for Mr. Barack Obama to remake the original "Wazzup!" video to portray what he want to make happen if he were to be elected. This commercial was very effective because it used comedy to attract people’s attention and then they put one of Barack Obama’s bigger slogans for his campaign, "change", at the end of the commercial to leave a lasting impression.

As we all should know, Mr. Barack Obama has won the presidential election. This is a very good thing for some, and very bad for others. His prime focus is on helping the lower and middle class citizens because of the economical recession, but because of this, he is taxing the upper class citizens of America. Anyone in America who makes more than a quarter million a year are affected by his new taxes. Of course these people are outraged with this and wish that Mr. John McCain had won. Unfortunately for them, the majority of the country see a better America in the hands of Barack Obama, just as I do. =)

Just because Obama has won, doesn’t mean he is in the clear. All eyes are on Barack, especial since he is the first black president. If he makes any bad moves, the media will overinflate them and make them seem worse than they actually are. Barack should take caution in knowing this, and not make any high risk moves for the first half of his term.


PS: GO BARACK!! =D
