Does anyone know what happens at midnight tonight? Well if you go to Rose-Hulman and are male (which most of you are) tonight is the night Halo 2 comes out. I have feared this day for a long time because I have numerous friends are about to give up their lives to play this game for weeks on end. Halo is like crack for the average nerd. You start playing and you can’t stop. I feel this pain being away from Grand Theft Auto for too long, but its infinitely times worse for those playing Halo 2. This is one of those rare moments when I’m glad I don’t an XBox.
Many of my friends are waiting in line at the local Walmart just so they can have the first chance to play. This is similar to those of us who goes sees midnight showings, sadly I am one of them. I admit to seeing the Matrix and Lord of the Rings at midnight. Why do we do this? What compels us to be the first. It can’t be a competition thing, because no sane person should feel cooler cause they see a movie or play a video game first. Perhaps its our hunter gather instinct, and we are afraid the companies will run out. Either way Bill Gates and Bungie are Jacking off Right now to all the money they are about to pull in.
