3 weeks ago it was my birthday, and my dad came home with a brand spankin new Sony Playstation Portable with a copy of a game called WipEout (More on that later). I thought: Cool, i've been wanting one of these, very funky little gadgets. Think the iPod of 2005 'cept its not made for playing music 
Anyway, so it seems like this lil thing has taken over my life. Wherever I am, I'm playing. On the Bus, In a Cab, Sittin in bed, At the mall, Out with my friends, at the co-op, in cafe's, EVEN during my art exam! (Don't worry its totally allowed lol). I always liked games but was never really indulged so in a system; i'd play when people went to a network play place and we'd battle it out at some shooter or something like that - but this thing has some mystical field about it, if I see it sitting there on a table or whatnot, i start getting pulled toward it, even if i'm exhausted or totally not in the mood to play; I have also found that were I to resist this attractive force, I would begin to slide toward it as a nail would a magnet, and I will end up playing it.
Just to make this mad addiction worse, this fancy black doohickey also does image slideshows, plays music videos and movies, and all your MP3s too (well, as many as you can cram on a memory card) so if for some reason it is inappropriate to play a game, i'll end up listening to it or watching movies on it.
You must have heard of the expression, 'The chase is more fun than the catch' and so far I had strongly believed in this, but the PSP took that saying and shattered it - every day i've had it I just get more and more helpless to its luring powers. What the hell am I gonna do!
