I may as well call this one a write off. I don't post here, don't think to post here and more recently I don't even remember to check here anymore ( Read more... ) -
30 Day Video Game Meme Day 12 - Play this game.
So today I answer the twelfth question, what game should everyone play? Well it's interesting because this was one of the questions I pre-scribbled a title down for. I was so certain I had a good answer for this, but a more recent release has blown my mind.
( It's Child of Eden, but I want to talk about a few things first. ) -
Hell yeah! We're making beef and guinness stew tonight.

30 Day Video Game Meme Day 11 - Weapon of choice.
Alright, today I'm talking consoles. My favourite one to be precise. Well actually it says "Gaming system of choice" which is in all fairness yet another ambiguous question. I am definitely a console gamer by choice, though some genres definitely excel on PC, consoles tend to be simpler and no-nonsense.
So if we're talking about what I play on the ( Read more... ) -

Okay I did say I would get back into this. But I have no idea how to answer the next question. Day 10 asks me what game I think has the best gameplay.

30 Day Video Game Meme Day 9 - Sob story.
Time to catch these up good and proper. First up the question of "What is your saddest game moment."

30 Day Video Game Meme Day 8 - Sounds good.
So yesterday I was supposed to pick my favourite soundtrack. But I don't know by what variables this is possible. So how I just start typing and see what happens.
( I sort of know I'm going to end up cheating a bit on this one. ) -
30 Day Video Game Meme Day 7 - The ambiguously gay evil in the residence
DAY... *checks* 7. DAY 7. MY FAVOURITE GAMING COUPLE or something.
Look, this is hard. Games haven't quite reached the point of maturity where relationships are... convincing. I don't know if it's a factor of poor storytelling or poor expression, but it's very difficult to think of any game characters as some sort of couple. Not saying there hasn't ( Read more... ) -
30 Day Video Game Meme Day 6 - HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE
So today's question on this 30 day video game meme asks me who I think the most annoying video game character is. Naturally I thought to the Zelda series, where there is certainly a quirky set of characters. Some of them quite memorable. Some of them very memorable for redefining aggravation. You may think I'm talking about little miss HEY LISTEN ( Read more... )
