The problem is too many awesome video games, and too much time spent at work to play them all.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m only four levels into <strong>Lollipop Chainsaw<\/strong>. I should have finished this game weeks ago. I think there are only two or three more stages anyway, but still. And this feels like a game where playing it over and over for high scores and cheevos will be fun and not just compulsion.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dragon&#8217;s Dogma<\/strong> continued to suck up all my video game time, because I love it to pieces. I try to be careful about using the word &#8220;love&#8221; when I describe material objects, but <em>man<\/em> do I love Dragon&#8217;s Dogma. The only thing I don&#8217;t like about it is that it&#8217;s a huge dick when it comes to fast travel. But the world isn&#8217;t that big, so it&#8217;s mostly not an issue. It would kind of ruin the point anyway, when the only time I end up needing to traverse the entire map is during escort quests.<\/p>\n<p>Then <strong>Theatrhythm Final Fantasy<\/strong> came along and ruined everything. I fear that I might not play another game for weeks. I already have a real thing about rhythm games, but when it&#8217;s a rhythm game that also tickles my nostalgia bone? Big trouble, but in the best way.<\/p>\n<p>The biggest loss is that I&#8217;ll be completely ignoring the Xbox Live Arcade version of <strong>Spelunky<\/strong>, which I have been absolutely <em>frothing<\/em> with demand for and finally launched yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>And then there&#8217;s still <strong>Monster Hunter Freedom: Unite<\/strong>, which I will probably be playing until the day my PSP dies. And then I will buy a new PSP and continue to play Monster Hunter Freedom: Unite. Unless <strong>Monster Hunter 3G<\/strong> is better.<\/p>\n<p>Someday I&#8217;ll finish <strong>Kid Icarus: Uprising<\/strong>. If it even <em>has<\/em> an ending.<\/p>\n<p>I love that my primary hobby is so consistently wonderful. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Don&#8217;t you hate it when you don&#8217;t really have anything important to talk about?
