I Dream in Vidya

I am a passionate video game enthusiast. It is one constant throughout my life. When I think of the things I enjoy and how I spend most of my time it is either playing, talking about, or reading opinions about video games. I've wanted to start a blog for sometime to vent my opinions on some matters and hopefully connect with like minded individuals. There is no good starting place for this. So I'll just blog as things come to mind. So as that daunting first post, I give you the stupidest possible thing.

Do you get to the point where you dream about video games? The point where you close your eyes to go to sleep and hear the beeps counting down to your respawn in Halo? Have you ever walked through the mall and thought about what part of the environment is destructible in Goldeneye terms? That's me. After Sunday night's episode of Mad Men (with a particularly awesome bit of Roger Sterling dropping acid) and a few hours of Mega Man X Command Mission (not bad for $5), my weird brain decided to dream of Don Draper and his colleagues fighting mavericks. It was strange. Don looked confused. They were using some sort of electrified rope and crossing around the enemies and wrapping them up. (Think Frog+Crono X-Slash mechanics.) So there's my stupid dream. It also made for an excuse to play around and get better at photoshop and to make a blog post. Enjoy.
