New Year

Cannot believe its the new year already, time does fly by when you having fun. With the new year now here I'm going to revamp the blog, it needs a new look and could do with a clean up in the way of how its organised.

2011 was a good year, a lot more blog posts since I started but once again it did drop at Christmas but that could not be helped. Still need to get into the habit of reviewing my games since only did around eight this year and played 50+ games. I will be doing my game of the year soon but want to play some more of Assassin's Creed before I give my judgement, right now its between Batman Arkham City, Assassin's Creed Revelations and Star Wars the Old Republic.

As I said in the last few posts there will not be any challenges this year ... well not yet anyway. instead I'm just going to enjoy my gaming and make my way through my back log of games. Last year I was able to clock 53 games which I am pleased about, it's a lot of games to finish but at the same time I cannot help but think I was clocking 6-10 games a month at the start of the year. Could had been a lot higher if I kept on track, oh well. Although I did clock those games I did buy a ton more again! in fact I picked up 78 games! so what I did clock was replaced since I only completed 31% of my new releases this year (check out the 2011 stats).

I would say it should be a better year this time around but have you seen the release schedule? check out the start of February, its November all over again. You would think the publishers would wait since everyone spent their money at Christmas. I am going to try and spend less by waiting, I could not believe how fast games dropped their prices last year. Week or two later after coming out you could find them over 30% less, Skyrim was half price two weeks after launch! I know that was a Christmas price drop but come on! I felt like I was being punished for being a loyal fan and getting it on day one.

Anyway enough with the boring and depressing talk, its the new year! so my plans today will be to change the pages, banner and start cleaning the blog up. You should also see more posts starting to appear since I'm getting more free time now thanks to the holiday being over.

Until then Happy New Year folks! hope 2012 is a good year for gaming for you.
