Call of Duty, my obsession.

This topic isn't as serious as some of the other ones I have done this year, but it sure does hit close to home. I love to play this game, pure and simple. I play it almost everyday now, (mainly because it helps me cope with my world of warcraft addiction, but hell I do not think that a call of duty modern warfare 2 obsession is that much better.) and I play it multiple times every day. I actually wish I were playing it right now.

So yes, I can honestly say that I am obsessed with this video game. I can't understand why I want to play it everyday, but I don't seem to really have a problem with it. I mean, I get my necessary homework done every night, so what is the problem? Maybe that is why I play so much. Because I personally see no problems, but I could be crazy and have a clouded vision that blurs my perception of what is 'completed homework.' So yes maybe that is right I am not really `sure at this moment! But, heck, i don't really even care!

Everyday when I get home at 5ish I get on call of duty. There are 70 'ranks' and me, being a sort of mediocre player, am only at the rank of 66 at this moment. I just feel the need to get to 70 as soon as possible! There is no parade when i do get there, I do not get any sort of reward, but I still want to. It is like this in every video game I play. I gain no physical reward, so I guess I need to create a mental reward in my mind in order for me to be motivated to spend these countless hours playing them. I guess the simpliest reason would be this; it is fun to do. but I think it requires more then just being fun to do, the mental 'fake' reason of the thought of just being done and finished with it.

I may be pretty obsessed, but I can say I am no where NEAR as obsessed as some people. After you hit rank 70, you have the choice to 'prestige' mode and go back to level 1. Yeah, no thanks. I am not THAT obsessed with it! I do not think that I have the time and effort to get to rank 70 again.
