The Daily Grind - Prologue

Ok let's jump back in time to last Sunday, I found myself spending a good part of the morning chatting with a mate of mine on twitter. He was kind enough to make me aware of the lovely 10th June which is turning out to be like last April/March with a ton of games coming out, so once again my bank account will be broke from the looks of it. During this conversation we also spoke about old games and the piles of shame that have been building up. Course everyone that knows me, knows I buy a ton of stuff and never play them. So that night I finally sat down and finished the last six to seven levels of Spiderman Shattered Dimension, was quite please with myself in fact for finally getting around to it.

Anyway on Monday I thought about doing a daily blog post, in this post I would talk about everything that happened that day to do with gaming. It would stay in my drafts and through out the day keep being added too until that night, which would then see it getting posted up.

In the day I think a lot about gaming, plan what I'm going to play next or think about what could help me raise my gamerscore or give me more trophies. What games I need to play or finish, what can be traded in when finished and what would be kept and of course I keep my eyes open for news on upcoming games. Pretty much all of this never gets put into my blog, the goal of this blog was for me to write down my adventure and yet the posts usually sound like this "played lego this week and finished it, was awesome". Then maybe a review several months later for the game which mediocre at best.

So that is why I've come up with this "The Daily Grind" posts, it will talk about everything and show you a inside look into my madness. And maybe with everything being written down I just might push myself to complete more!

  1. I think this is great idea. Obviously I'm stealing said idea for myself in an attempt to tackle my pile of unplayed games. Well it's more like an unplayed mountain of games. I dare not consider the original purchase cost. :S Oh dear!
