So right now my left wrist is insanely sore (not from that, I'm a rightey!) from playing these games solo guitar and I decided to take a break. I didn't realize how loud I actually had the system cranked but man are my ears ringing.

I can't believe how much more into Video games, movies, and music I am now that I can actually appreciate the sound. I think this could be dangerous to my health. It is now 3 hours later than I thought it was and I see 2 more empty tall boys than I remember drinking. Whooda thunk a half-ways decent sound setup could captivate ones mind on such a level as to them basically being removed from reality.

    I love playing Team Fortress 2 with my rig. I'm sure my neighbors love when I play till 2-3 am.

    My wife and Willow got me RockBand for my PS3 for my Bday, (along with my new Weber E310 BBQ :D). I really enjoy this game, it's something different. Since I grew up playing instruments, I have the ability to keep an accurate beat. Well I picked up the mic once ok twice but I'm about to blow my tweeters, so I'll stick with the drums and guitar. Now my wife and I can play together. What I don't like is the price of buying add. songs 2.99 each :eek:

    That's too much. I got the 360 version. Usually the songs are $2 each, sometimes even $1. In the future some songs may cost $3 (source http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_songs_in_Rock_Band#Downloadable_songs ).

    I already bought a ton of songs. More than 20 for sure :D.
