There are very few games that fill me with the desire to purchase a full on gaming system to fill the need for that single game. In the past week I found two. This first was Gears of War. A quite excellent game that involves a gun with a CHAINSAW on the end of it. I thought there could be nothing greater than this.

Until I played Guitar Hero 2. My fingers are still numb from playing hours upon hours on this game. My thumb keeps wanting to strum something. My left hand naturally curls into a claw shape and I hear guitar riffs in everyday background noise. When an actual song comes on the radio I want to jump up, grab a guitar and start rocking out. I wake up hearing Carry On Wayward Son (As made famous by Kansas) in my head.

Truely, this game cranks it to 11.
