Games I've played

I'm going to admit, I have been known to partake in the shoot 'em up genre of video game.  Possibly my favorite games of all time have been the Mass Effect series and Uncharted 2.  Part of the appeal for me is, yes, the shooting of all the aliens and bad guys and what not, however what put these games ahead of the rest for me really were the storylines.  The Mass Effect games had me so wrapped up because I had never played any game like them.  Literally every decision you make affects the outcome of the game, offering a nearly endless amount of outcomes for the story.  I have also played and enjoyed other types of games (of a non-violent nature).  I think one of the most well put-together games I've ever played online has been Mystery of Time and Space (MOTAS).  It's a puzzle game and at times it really challenges the mind.  Needless to say, it's very creative and not just one of those click as much as possible to escape the room games.  You actually have to think.  Definitely check it out if you have a little free time on your hands as it saves your progress on the computer you play on.  I have never played WOW or Second Life, but I have played several text based MMO's that managed to get people sucked in through the social aspect.  Anyway, I feel as though I have rambled on enough for now.  Until next time...
