All I Wanna Do is Play Left 4 Dead 2

rom_border …and Modern Warfare 2 and Dragon Age: Origins. In the past week, I’ve been flooded with several new games. Ok, so by several, I mean three, but a quality three it is. As a kid, it seemed finding the time to play video games was never much of a problem. The main obstacle was to convince my parents that I was a good enough kid to deserve that newest must-have game. Now that I’m all growned up, I can afford any game that I want, but the same responsibilities that let me afford my vice is what prevents me to put the time I want into it. Ahhh,  irony… WORLD!! WHY DO YOU HATE ME SO!! Well my options seem to be, to take it like a man and schedule my time like a responsible adult OR spend all my nights and weekends playing video games while sacrificing my social life and well being…hmmm…
 fat_gamer_kidWell, THIS is NOT an option.


We’ve always found the topic of zombies interesting but ever since we read World War Z by Max Brooks, it’s sort of turned into an obsession. Like any other geek on the block, I am confident that I can survive a Zombie Apocalypse. I’ve read the supplementary reading to WWZ, Zombie Survival Guide, and watched enough zombie movies (I have pretty good cardio and know to aim for the head) to formulate what my friends and I like to call “Plan Z”. As much as I would like to, I can not divulge what this plan actually is. I mean, let’s face it, it IS going to be survival of the fittest.
