Mass Effect 2 comes out in a week and I can't wait! I've got my preorder paid and my ME1 character ready to load. I don't know if it is healthy or not, but I'm pretty sure my heart-rate was jumping while looking up all the preview information I could find today. I don't think I've ever been this excited about a video game before in my life! Normally I don't think hype helps when it comes to the actual enjoyment of a game, but for some reason I feel like it would be impossible for Mass Effect 2 to not meet my high expectations, because honestly, I just want to know what happens!

While I might be setting myself up for a huge disappointment, yes I am aware that ME2 will likely end with somewhat of a cliff hanger, I still can't help but be excited! So, even if this hype is bad for me and ruining my chances at enjoying the game, I'm counting down the minutes until it is released and will try to beat it the same day. That latter part likely isn't going to happen, but it wont be for a lack of effort I assure you. When I do finish, I already plan to play through it again.
