Steam started doing Steam Replay a few years ago in which they break down the games you’ve played in the last year. Every pop media website seems to do some kind of wrap up at this time of year, but this is the only one I care about. It shows how many games I’ve played… Continue Reading
I normally play FromSoft games and a few indies here and there. I feel like I might play a huge chunk of ten games a year at best? And any year in which a FromSoft game is released (that I actually play, that’s a hint for later), that’s basically all I play other than casual… Continue Reading
In looking back on this year, I have been thinking about the games I’ve played. Yesterday, I wrote a post about how I’m aware of what a weirdo I am, but not how far outside of the norm I am. I can usually understand why normies feel the way they do, but sometimes, it’s just… Continue Reading
The Geoff Game Awards show was on recently, and I watched it with interest. Not for the awards because they were mostly a foregone conclusion. Not for the trailers, really, as I wasn’t expecting anything that would interest me. Not for the cringe-inducing banter, either. You would think that negates any incentive for watching the… Continue Reading
I’m not a big pop culture person. I quit watching movies several years ago, and I have been sporadic in my book reading. I do ‘listen’ to songs on YouTube (videos), but it’s very now-and-then, and it’s usually something I already knew. TV? Can’t remember the last show I watched with any regularity. Why is… Continue Reading
I’ve blathered on long enough about gaming in general, so I’m going to instead lay out my plan/agenda for gaming in 2026 for funsies. Here is yesterday’s post about how I like the Golden Joystick Awards better than I do The Game Awards even though the show itself was, ah, not the best. I’ll just… Continue Reading
I want to talk some more about me and gaming. Here is yesterday’s post in which I talked about indies versus AAA games. Funnily enough, one of the big debates this year for The Game Awards is what is an indie game versus a AAA game. Why? Because Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Sandfall Interactive) is… Continue Reading
Let’s talk more about the games I like and the games I want to play next year. Before I get into that, though, I will say that I was pleasantly surprised by one game in particular this year, but I am not going to talk about this now. You can probably suss the reason why,… Continue Reading
This year has been a weird one in many ways, but I’m going to talk about it from a gaming standpoint today because I can. And because it makes sense after talking about the ten games that define me. I have played many games this year, more than I normally do. New games, I mean.… Continue Reading
I have one last post in me talking about the ten games that define me. Or, more to the point, the one game that is my favorite game of all time AND that is important to who I am now. Here was my post from yesterday, which was also about Elden Ring (FromSoft) and what… Continue Reading
