Ib

So a while ago I downloaded and played a game called "Ib"
which you can watch me playing here: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDE9A3C5C7E3861BE&feature=mh_lolz

Anyway, I wanted to take this time to just say how much of an AWESOME game I thought it was.
When I was talking to my brother about it, he told me that a game with those kind of graphics couldn't possibly be scary. And I'll tell you what, even though I eventually got used to the atmosphere, that game always managed to scare me with something.
It also made me emotional in other ways, too. You don't know how worried I was that I would lose Garry in the end. Even though I didn't get the best ending, I was super relieved to have at least gotten "Memory's Crannies".

That game got me so involved in everything, and it's one of the reasons why I think games are much more involved than movies or books- especially rpgs - because you are the character(s) in a sense. And depending on what you choose to do, certain things will happen that you really may or may not want.

There are a lot of questions that I would want to be answered about some of the things taking place in that game, but oh well, it was still the best two days I ever spent.
