Too many words for a blog again, so I'll get right to my Sunday game fest.

This morning a Microsoft Store opened in the King of Prussia Mall. This is the mall I've been going to since the arcade years. I couldn't get up early enough for the grand opening, where they probably handed out swag, but I went there in the afternoon hoping maybe I'd see Major Nelson, since he sometimes appears at new MS Stores. No dice there; however, I saw the Xbox One, 500 GB, being sold for $300. I couldn't resist. It was mine. See picture below:

A good year for games for me, not so much in other areas, but there's a few worth mentioning.

Another day, another set of games played. But first a pic I took during the week that made me giggle.

Lots of games smashed through this week. I imagine when I finish these under 10 hour games on my list, the amount of games I play each week will reduce to just a few. I kind of can't wait, because it'll make writing these blogs easier. Anyhow, here goes another blast of video games.

What's ya gonna do in 2007? Hear some music? Read a book? Watch a tv show? Naw, it's all about the gaming. Some really big series, still very relevant today, got their start in '07. But I got some things to say about the rest of the media. Here's it all.

I got Halo 2, 3, and 4 on day-one, but not this time. Halo 4, the first post Bungie, kind of annoyed me, so I'm not doing it this time. Oh well, end of an era for me. I got my old school gaming on instead.

I played a lot of different games today. Most of them annoyed me in different ways, but I was happy to get a bunch of them done and put aside as trade bait. My mission is to pair down my collection as far as possible. I guess my onlly problem is that I sometimes still add games to it like this week when I bought Ys I & II Chronicles for PSP. Here's the pic.

Forgot to post this on Monday. I got this poster, actually two of them, from some Gamestopers. It's kinda neat. It shows the history of Mario games over their 30 year history. Pretty cool, I say.

2006, a year in which I bought a Xbox 360 because I just had to play Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. It was a nice moment I remember seeing that expansive world for the first time at home. I got into comics starting with The Halo Graphic Novel. From there it was weekly visits to the comic store to pick up all sorts of new stuff. I also starting reading the Halo novels this year and have been ever since. The insane and incredibly entertaining movie Crank came out this year. I still quote from it all the time. I distinctly remember going to the movies to see Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny. It was ok. My favorite song, as happens many a time, was in the credits, the song, The Metal. I guess I could say more, but I think I'll just drop a bunch of top ten (or less) lists. Feelin' kinda down today.
