This is a partial list what I could be doing during my time off:
- Get a few muscles on my body and lose 5 lbs.
- Draw in my sketchbook
- Get to know some of my friends better
- Read a book
- Call my parents
One video games that I'm spending a lot of time on is Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3, probably the corniest video game I've played...and I'm loving it:
Imagine it: Einstein goes back in time to kill Hitler. The outcome? WWII as we know it never happened, Germany's role as a super power is never realized and the USSR rises to power as the Allies' new enemy.
From Wikipedia:
The game is set in a parallel universe in which World War II never happened (in the original Red Alert, Albert Einstein travelled back in time and removed Hitler in the 1920s. After an Allied victory in Red Alert 2, the Soviet leaders travelled back in time and removed Albert Einstein in the 1920s, preventing the Allies from creating atomic weapons while the Soviet Union rose to power, battling the Allies in the 1950s. In this game, the Empire of the Rising Sun rises to power as a threat as well (an unintentional result of the Soviets time travelling). All three factions are playable, with the main gameplay involving constructing a base, gathering resources, and training armies composed of land, sea, and airborne units to defeat other players.
Along with the severely macho gameplay there are also a number of cheesy female commandos who wear anything from a tight tanktini to pleather booty shorts. I'm not sure whether I want to pull their hair or French braid it and talk about boys. And yes, that's Jenny McCarthy in the last photo.
