I haven't opened Tatsunoko since I got hooked on Mass Effect 2. I'm finding my house looking messy by the day. It's not often that I get hooked on games but ME2 is just one of those games where I'm always thinking of what I'm going to do next...even when I'm not playing.

I know I have a ton of things to do and I always find myself waiting for the game to go on sale or lower in price anyway but I bought into the hype. Gladly, it lives up to it (at least to me) and there are some moments in ME2.

One part is where you hang at a crazy place called Afterlife - a ghetto bar-stripper-dance club. Fine. No big deal. Seen stuff like this in other games. So I hit the bar and "Order a drink". Alien dude pulls out what looks like a whole bottle of Adios and you snort the whole cup like a shot and violently shaking your head from the aftertaste while getting tipsy from a few cups. Once you're done with that, you can get down and dance with some chick on the dance floor - all in wonderful full body armor. It's even funnier when you're grooving on the floor with a big ass helmet. In one minute, you're told to be a key player in the galaxy. The next minute, you're chillinwith a scantily-clad alien chick strip dancing on your table while your two partners are chillin in the background, arms folded, face blurred, standing there nonchalant watching you have fun. It's pretty funny. So I leave the chick and look for another bar in another part of the room - different bartender and everything. I take a shot and my character gets poisoned! Lmao! Somehow recovered in a different area, I went back for revenge ready to shoot him in the face. I see the bartender who's now scared as hell and wondering how I survived the poison. Instead of shooting him in the face, the game did one better."Scare him and let him go"or "Let him drink his own drink". Hell ya! Lol! My character watches with a coy smile as the bartender drinks to his inevitable death. The people who put this game together are on crack. Love it so far.
