Ride The Lightning - Lance Icarus

I'm not saying that the other two games aren't going to be fun perse, but only one game do I have faith in it's fun and ability to shoot lightning. I'm also not saying that Metallica is better than Aerosmith, I'm simply saying that Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is the first effort in this single band focus brand of Guitar Hero and is a bit of an experiment. There's also the fact that Metallica has better music than Aerosmith, so that helps.

So it seems Metal Gear Solid 4 is officially out now in the US and is being proclaimed not only as big as sliced bread, but perhaps even bigger. In a recent comic we covered what happens when you go through the MGS series too quickly, an effect that resembles an ice cream headache times ten. Apparently the effects after including MGS 4 in that is perhaps fatal. Dizzy's roommate is playing it, only to emerge in an excited state saying such things as "I can't believe they're in the game too" and "Can I tell you a spoiler?"

I worry that whatever plot twist lies at the end of this game will eventually cause his head to explode from the information overload. At that point I will take his PS3 and copy of Metal Gear Solid 4 and play it myself. The cycle continues.

Hey, maybe that's going to be next week's comic. Maybe it won't be. You should probably check back next Monday and find out for yourself. Either way you will enjoy yourself. See you then.
