Waste of space.

Hello loyal readers. Today I am feeling a bit guilty about a game I play. That game is Tiger Woods 2007 and the reason I feel guilty is because of a friend. My buddy Jason is a virtual environmentalist and when he found out that I played TW07, well he flipped. I guess I never realized how much memory space these games took up and as Jason explained, that space could be used to create living space for the poor. He was right I know, hell one golf game takes up the same space as three games of Sim City. I didn't dare tell him that I had erased an entire game of Sim Earth to make more room for Tiger. It's bad enough when your friends think of you as an elitist snob but destroyer of planets is a title I really don't need either, that would be akin to being the guy on the Death Star that fires the laser even though it's against every moral he has but his family is hungry and he really needs this job, I don't wanna be that guy. One problem I have with Jason's logic is this, Can't the virtual builders just go build in another part of the drive? It's not as though my golf course is taking up all the room, it's just in a slot that you think is Ideal unrealestate. You know what, screw that, Jason is wrong. There is plenty of memory room for my golf game and Sim City. All I need to do is clear some unused space. My old Madden 2004 stadium hasn't been used for years now, I was gonna make an amusement park there but I could build homes I suppose. Then you have those buildings in Las Vegas that have been empty since my Rainbow Six team wiped out all the terrorists, those could easily be renovated for the poor. There is lots of room for everyone, I don't have to feel bad about using some of it for golf. It comes down to a bunch of uppity environmentalists that just don't want to see anyone doing anything that doesn't involve granola and being dirty. So I say to Jason, "Up yours buddy", let's agree to disagree, I will play my golf game and you can play your Sim Hippie game and we will butt out of each others lives. However, if he says one more think about how wrong it is to play Cabela's Deer Hunter again, well, the next time I see him on Battlefield, I am gonna friendly fire him until I get booted.

Screw those E-Hippies and the virtua-horse they rode in on. Next time I see them around I will do strange and disturbing things to them using E-culturally accepted examples from Duke Nukem, Mortal Kombat, Doom3, Postal 2 and Soldier of Fortune. And after that I'll...I'll...well, go get a squeegee and a pressure washer.
