Boys and their video games...

Okay I know I posted a blog before about my love for Guitar Hero, but some boys have a weird obsession with video games. Take tonight for instance. All I heard about was how the boys were going to play video games..I mean that is all I heard about! Then I wanted to watch a movie. I got my way on that part, but as soon as the movie was over they were like okay man what game do you want to play now...So now I am sitting in this room listening to some stupid racing game..ridiculous! Shouldn't these boys be like doing homework or something besides video games? They are going to turn into a video game if they are not careful! I just don't get it. Plus they don't play these games that are easy to understand, they play these messed up complicated games. I don't even know the name of them. Sure the racing game they are playing right at this moment can't be too complicated, but earlier they were playing some weird war game. I don't know. Another thing that bugs me when guys play video games, is the fact that while they are playing they become magically deaf. Don't ever try to talk to a guy while he is playing a stupid game. He will not I repeat WILL NOT hear a word you say. You could be telling him the house is on fire and he would not hear you. It gets so annoying though. When I am sitting here trying to tell a guy something and he is all into his game and he does not even listen to me! What if it was important?! Oh well I guess video games keep the guys I hang out with out of my hair so I can go do my girlie things. But the point of all this is...I will never understand what is so amazing about video games to a guy.

Guitar Hero

There are so many different video games out on the market. Well I have a Wii, and that is one of the coolest game consoles EVER! The most addicting game for me that has to be my absolute favorite game that has ever been created is Guitar Hero. I am a BIG music person, and when Guitar Hero came out I fell in love! My friends and I trend to stay up until the wee hours of the morning playing. First it was just with the guitars, and then the awesome people that created the game decided to add the drums and microphones to the newer games. My friends and I like to think we have our own "band". Of course if we had to play actual guitars and drums we would probably be super horrible, but with our little guitar hero band we think we are pretty awesome rockstars. I love to play that game by myself too. Seriously, if I am just sitting in my room...I turn on my Wii and get to rocking! On Guitar hero you can play anything from old rock, to new age stuff, to even country now. Of course it is not always a bright idea to stay up all night playing and then go to school and work the next day. You will need ALOT of coffee..trust me ask any of my friends and we will be witnesses to that. The sad thing is, is that I was never really a video game person until Guitar Hero. I played like some tennis and bowling here and there when I got my Wii...but when I got Guitar Hero...it was over from there. Especially since I was supposed to share the Wii with my younger brother...that was pretty much impossible. Who ever came up with Guitar Hero is a genius in my opinion. My love for music was put into one of the most awesome video games ever! If I ever got the chance I would seriously like to thank the creators of Guitar Hero. I would like to thank them for giving me something that I stay up super late and get minimal sleep because I am playing it. Also, I would like to thank them for my extensive coffee bills. Finally, I would like to thank them for the creation of a game for all the music lovers in the world. Sadly, I have moved to college, and I could not bring my Wii with me (because my mom made me leave it at home for my brother). Now it is like I am going through Guitar Hero withdrawals. I sit in my room and think about all the late, fun nights I have had either playing the game alone or with my friends. Oh well, its not like I will not be going back home, and when I do, I hope my brother is willing to give back the Wii. If he is not I will be forced to take it with extreme force (not really, but I will just take it anyway and listen to him fuss, and then he will get over it.). I guess that sums it up. I am a serious Guitar Hero junkie. I get jokes made about it, but that's okay with me. If anyone has Guitar Hero up here at AUM and would either like to join forces or have extreme competition, please feel free to let me know!
