Honey is that ok?

I’ve been playing gears of war a fair bit over the last couple of weeks. I’m pretty sure it’s the most manly thing I have ever done. Here is a picture to prove it.

Well, it doesn’t prove I’ve been playing it, perhaps I wasn’t, but you won’t know that. It does prove the manliness tho. Everyone on your team is a really big muscleman. The guns are big and have a chainsaw on the end for some reason. Their personalities are well fleshed out, I mean one has a bandana, one a beard, etc. They all sound tough too. “I’m really tough” they say, but in a really tough way. I don’t know how to write in tough, but they know how to speak in tough.

You spend most of the time in the game shooting aliens. Most of the aliens look like people with dry skin. None of your squad have dry skin, maybe that is why all the aliens are trying to kill them. I’m just making that up, I don’t know what the real plot is but I think mine is better anyway. There are also these birds that kill you if you enter anywhere dark during the night. It reminds me of the X-files episode “darkness falls” where Mulder and Scully are out in the wilderness and there are these bugs that kill people who leave the light. Anyway..

The sequel is out soon, which will feature lots of sweaty hugging, revealing shower scenes and just friends spooning, which is the only logical follow up to the first game. Oh, while I’m stealing lines from Futurama, the guy who does the voice of Bender does the voice of the main guy in the game. It’s pretty fun to imagine bender being in the game, or it would be if I had ever done that before just now. If I wasn’t so lazy the game would encourage random acts of manliness in real life. If there were any trees to fell in the forest or heavy items to carry I would totally do that.
