A little experiment I have going.

Heeeeeeeelllllllllllooooo there.

I love playing games with choices. More spicifically, I like games where you can chose whether your character will play the role of good or evil, hero or villian, paragon or renegade, hell even, even.... even.... ummm, well I can't think of anymore, but that's not the point! The point is choices, and choices are everywhere, which leads me to this experiment I have been planning and will be doing over the next while.



When I play games with choices, I always have a hard time being bad, I always find myself being good, doing good deeds, doing what was asked of me. I have yet to figure out why, maybe it's because I get to attached to the character and I want them to be good, maybe it's because i name all my characters after me, make them look like my and because I'm not generally considered a bad person, I make good choices.

I think every game I've played I have made the good choices (expect for Bioshock, although I had to really think about what I was doing before I chose to harvest the little sisters, I always wanted to save them)

Now, here is where my experiment comes in.

I just recently downloaded Fable off XBL. I have heard good things about it, and I never got a chance to play it so I decided to give it a shot. I also wany to get a feel for the game before Fable 2.

I play to play though the game, being one bad mother--- Shut Your mouth!

Well then, like I said i plan to be basically, well bad. I want to see how I will enjoy the game, how I react, how I react in real life, if i get attached to the character, etc., etc.

I will be posting my result once I'm finished the game (althought that may be awhile because of GTAIV)

But I have already started this little experment without you guys! I started the game, i didn't get that far in, but the choices come flying at you right away. I didn't know how to be bad, so I saw a little girl looking for her doll, and what would a bad person do? That's right! Punch the shi*t out of her. And man did i laugh my ass off. I continued through the game, doing the opposite of what people asked of me, and I was having a ball! I was laughing having a great expirence.

Now, that's all for now, and let's hope I enjoy the game as much as I did at the beginning. =)

Dude, I just posted a blog pretty much explaining how I'm the exact opposite of you. I love being evil, yet actually chose to save the Little Sisters... It's like we're Bizarro versions of eachother... Crazy...

Anyways, have fun being an asshole. I've played through Fable multiple times, and it's always the way I go...

Doesn't Fable only have one ending? Either way, it's a good game.

But yeah, Choices are good. :D

*SPOILER FREE*

You have a choice at the end that determines just how the game actually finishes.

Punching the shit out of little girls does, indeed, sound hilarious.
