As I write this, I’m sitting at at my desk in the basement with only the sights and sounds of Bioshock behind me. Nicole’s played, I’d say no less than 7 hours or so today, meticulously working through a strategy guide to research every last splicer, recover each and every audio log, and rescue every last little sister. Normally I’d implore her to pop in something we can both play together, but not tonight. No, tonight I’m simply as fascinated watching her play through Andrew Ryan’s twisted and derelict underwater dystopia as I was the first time I entered that fateful bathysphere over two years ago. So why am I so enthralled at the adventure I’ve already experienced? Is it because the sequel is just around the corner, launching next week? Certainly, but it’s more than just that. Read on if you’d like to know more about why I hold Irrational Games’ masterpiece in such a high esteem.

Yes, it’s that time again for me to do one of my oh-so-beloved list posts. Today’s topic is the recently released Modern Warfare 2 that I now feel comfortable talking about seeing as how my nerdgasms have finally subsided a bit. While I can’t speak for Nicole (because she’s too busy spanking me in Borderlands), I can say that I’ve spent a little over 10 hours with the game so far and feel authoritative enough to give you the run-down on what I’ve played so far. So without further adieu, please, stay frosty and pay attention as I reveal to you some juicy tidbits about this year’s most anticipated shooter.
