Have you ever wanted to travel back in time and redo your choices in life? Want to be reborn again and grow up right? It’s now possible, virtually that is. Alter Ego is a life simulation game that starts with an alter “you” being born to completely unknown parents.

The game is all about decisions that you can choices, but be careful, because you can’t choose the consequences. Been a fatso at adolescence? Die at age 25. Grow up as a slacker? Be poor till the end. The game is a challenge since your choices can be as simple accepting sweets from a stranger (spoiler: which leads you to being kidnapped and killed at a young age) or playing baseball when you’re already too old. The game does have a depressing factor but I’ll leave that for you to find out.

Log on to Http://www.playalterego.com/ and register so that you can play your game again even if you log out. Relive your alter life well! Gerascophobic people (fear of growing old) have to stay away from this game.

Ghost sweeper is a story about a money grubbing, self-centered anti-heroine named Reiko Mikami and her lecherous assistant Tadao Yokoshima who continually harasses her and other female characters in the manga even their secretary, a 300 year old ghost named Okinu.
The manga is very entertaining and addicting with no storyline but having lots of story arcs which develop the main characters and keep on adding new characters in a skillful way that you can’t help but feel lonely for them if they don’t show up again. The new characters themselves are various forms of anti-heroes and anti-heroines such as a former assassin voodoo expert, an evil immortal mad scientist/warlock with an ancient android, a vampire and even the dreaded Kyubi or nine-tailed fox demon.
Published in 1991 till 1999, the 39 volumes written and drawn by Takashima Shiina has set a standard for supernatural comedy genre mangas. It combines Asian primarily Japanese culture, religion and mythology with the West.

What can I say, I am a net junkie. I easily get hooked to a lot of stuff. Good or bad. Call this blog as a self-awareness blog. Maybe for once I’m able to track my “addictions”. How about you? What’s your current addiction?
