Mass Effect 2 is a BAAAD game!

I purchased mass effect 2 and decided to open it and check it out the other day. I was only planning on playing a couple hours, and 10 hours later is when I turned off my xbox 360! I turned it on today and played another 8 hours. The game is so addicting.

What keeps me playing is the sci-fi world, that BioWare created, the characters that you get attached to, and just the different possibilities of your actions that keep the story in motion. I thoroughly enjoy the game, I'm just amazed how much time I've put into it. I beat Uncharted in 2 days, about 5 hours each day. The game took me 10.5 hours, and Mass Effect 2, I'm at 18 hours.

Just ridiculous.

What I also can't get over is that one of the characters in the game, Jacob Taylor looks so much like Kanye. It's like Kanye West is in the video game. I expect the character to just start rapping or getting mad at Taylor Swift or something.

And....
Yvonne Strahovski (from Chuck) as Miranda Lawson

Post V-day post



Surprisingly, I didn't think about Valentine's Day too much this year. I was too concerned about studying for finals. I don't have any gripes about Valentine's day, but the video above just reminded about God's love versus flawed-human love. We can love one another, and love a significant other, but can we ever love like how God loved us? We can certainly try or aspire to that standard because God calls us to that.

Genuine love for others because God first loved us.
