I have never been a PC gamer, I prefer the Xbox or Wii platforms. Back in December a friend of mine bought me Portal and Portal 2 on Steam. I thought I would give it a try. Needless to say, I dig it! The only bummer about Steam is that the ratio of PC to MAC games is kind of weak, but that’s not totally their fault, it’s the developers. So, I had been playing Portal for a bit, when another friend bought me Left 4 Dead. It’s zombies, a little spooky and fun. I found out before I played it that it was a shooter game. (Oh, no!)
Let’s start by saying, I suck at shooters! I am the first person to get fragged in Halo and before I have a chance to respawn, I’m dead again. (Yep, I’ve been teabagged and I am not proud to say that!) So, when I realized that it was a shooter, I was nervous. I suck and I thought I would try it out anyway.
So, I played for about 30 minutes and I discovered that I am good at shooters on PC gaming! I’m still not the best in the world, but I am much better at it on PC than any other platform! While, I’m not quite ready to play Player vs. Player or PvP for short, in Left 4 Dead, I am definitely excited about the party mode! I think I can handle myself well in that arena!
So, if you aren’t sure whether you will like PC gaming or not, try out Steam. The games are fun and affordable and I dig it and I was not a PC gamer before this!

our private New Year’s party! It should fun, filled with gaming and lots of fun stuff!
Earlier today we will be playing the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game, Arena Grand Melee game. This sounds like fun! I am told that this has a series of cards like “phone a friend” and “you have to stand up the whole game, or take damage”. It sounds like the perfect game for some New Year’s Eve fun!
I hope that you all have a lot of fun this New Year’s Eve! What nerdy things are you all doing?
It was recently brought to my attention (by the awesome Lawrence on G+) that the not-so-lovely, but famous IJustine is now posting gaming reviews. If you can call them that. I watched them and they were horrible. It’s just her playing a game and bs’ing in the process. Hey, Justine, that is not a review. You being all cutesy and playing a game, does not a gamer make!
To all of us legitimate girl gamers, we actually review the games that we play. We don’t just sit there and look cute. Oh, and complaining that you haven’t killed anyone in game is not a review.
So for us legitmate gamers, let’s not take props from this talent-less bimbo. Let’s actually reveiw the games that we play. Tell the people why you like them or don’t like them for that matter. Be honest, but don’t just do it for the paycheck! Some of us actually work hard to be legitimate without the fake boobs.
So thanks iJustine for being you, fake and money hungry!
