Gaming, it's my life

I am a gamer, that is my core hobby, but I also plan to program video games after 4 years of college. Most of my friends are hardcore gamers and I have LAN (Local Area Network) Parties almost monthly. Life is great, until my 3 week break from JC attandence is over, then life will only be good. I keep a constant watch over the video game industry and find it enthralling. But I am at a stage where I am more excited about some upcoming games than the ones I have. I will end with some upcoming games I personally am excited about:

Star Wars: Force Unleashed - the first next-gen Star Wars game, with great graphics and physics, that greatly enhance the new and improved jedi powers you control.

Warhammer Online - People are calling it the new and improved World of Warcraft but I find WoW addicting, but in a bad way, like you play it alot and it becomes a chore instead of entertainment. However I think WAR (as it's called) will be MUCH more fun than WoW.

Spore - The next big sim game, where you create your own alien species and then evolve from the sea to land to eventually end up colonizing other planets.
