Decisions, Decisions

Posted in City of Heroes/Villains, Gaming at 6:01 am

I may have made passing reference to it previously, but this weekend is a double-experience point event in the City of Heroes/City of Villains game. Now, ordinarily, I would be so totally all over that, if it weren’t for the fact that I know with certainty that the Wal-Mart within walking distance will 100% have Wiis in stock on Sunday morning. Both pretty much no-brainer decisions, but together they present me with a bit of an odd duck.

Now, granted, I’ve already hit Level 50 in City of Heroes; the only “accomplishment”-related reason to keep playing is to do it again with a villain, and while I’m enjoying it, there are other games I could be playing. But, then again, there’s the whole social aspect of it, as well; I haven’t been playing CoH/V as much due to the fact that I’ve been doing other stuff. I do like to hang out with the people involved, so that’s a major pulling point for doing that.

And to be completely honest, there’s only maybe two games on the Wii that have my real interest at the moment (Rayman and Trauma Center). However, when the time finally comes that a blockbuster game I want to play (say, Smash Bros.) comes out, I may not be able to find the machine then– a ’second launch’ effect. Plus, it’s still damn fun.

Ah well. Either way I decide, I’ll be quite busy this weekend.
