   Well, I just beat Mass Effect and now I'm sad. I didn't want it to
   end. There wasn't a single aspect of the game I didn't enjoy. The
   shooting was smooth, driving the Mako was awesome, the side missions
   were engaging, the story missions kept me rapt in sci-fi awesomeness,
   and dialogue with NPCs was the best!

   I'm going to play through it again just so I can go Renegade. I got my
   Paragon achievement the first time through. I accidently completed the
   romance path with Liara T'Soni when I really wanted to go all the way
   with Ashley Williams. Guess I flirted with the asari more than I
   thought. Hope I can get with Williams on the Renegade path. I'm pretty
   much acting like a complete tool as much as I can and I hope doing
   that with Williams also won't mess that all up. She's a xenophobe so
   bashing aliens when I talk to her should work in my favor though.

   Kaidan Alenko is a dork and I let him die. I am a bit annoyed I didn't
   get the turian achievement. I had Garrus in my party through the
   majority of the game. The moment he joined my team never did he leave
   my party. I don't get it.

   I do have one complaint: What's with the slow elevators in the future?

   But now I need to move on to something new. I have Eternal Sonata
   gathering dust. It's a great game but I just got so very, very stuck.
   Then Mass Effect came out and it swallowed my life. Assassin's Creed
   looks neat-o. I already grabbed the Limited Edition strategy guide for
   the game. It came with an artbook. I love video game artbooks. Which
   is why I grabbed the Mass Effect Limited Edition guide as well. Halo 3
   might be an option. Mass Effect greased my console FPS joints so I
   probably wouldn't suck at it. 'Course... I should probably finish
   Gears of War.

   Then there's the Wii. Still haven't finished Twilight Princess and I
   bought that the day it came out with my Wii. And there's Metroid Prime
   3: Corruption I have to finish too.

   On the PS2 Final Fantasy 12 is thinking it did something to make me
   mad, I'm sure of it. Heck, there are PS1 games I still have to beat!
   Like Chrono Cross.

   I dunno. What do you guys think? Any suggestions? Any game you
   recently beat and wanna talk about? Any game you're looking forward
   to? Fable 2 and Metal Gear Solid 4 fill that last one for me. I got my
   360 on the promise of Fable 2. I'll be buying my PS3 when MGS4 comes
   out.

   Let's hear some stories in the comments now that will make the old
   people reading this blog think we're just dumb kids wasting our time
   and money at the penny arcade and soda shops! There's the Kaiser to
   worry about dag-nabbit!
